I would like to know, is dancing to Bhangra Songs acceptable in Sikhism.

One part says no, as it takes us away from the path of God. Alot of these Bhangra songs talk about caste, and are sexist, or provoke lustful behaviour...so is Bhangra a good thing?


Confused...could you help...?

Bhangra itself is very healthy, it balances the brain hemispheres when done properly.
You are right to be concerned about the content of the lyrics. That is a different topic. You should control your environment whenever you can. Do bhangra in good environments and don't put yourself in bad situations. It takes effort on your part.
