AM I NORMAL ? by Gurpreet Singh Who wants to be normal ? Was Guru Nanak Dev Ji normal when he walked 82,000 miles ? Was Guru Gobind Singh ji normal when he asked for a head ? Were any of the martyrs normal, choosing death than living like slaves ? No, the devotees of God are not normal they are madly and deeply in love with God while the whole world thinks they are insane ... When Guru Nanak Maharaj appeared from the river after three days, all soaked and with messy hair, people called him many things as guru nanak dev ji himself writes: "Some call him a ghost; some say that he is a demon. Some call him a mere mortal; O, poor Nanak! ||1|| Crazy Nanak has gone …

36 Principles of Baba Nand Singh Ji 1) Sri Guru Granth Sahib shall have to be worshipped as a living Satguru Nanak Dev ji. 2) Prayers for getting rid of all worries, diseases, pains and poverty etc. shall have to be sincerely made before Sri Guru Granth Sahib, fully believing that Satguru Nanak Dev ji is sitting there. 3) Whatever you eat or drink should be offered to Sri Guru Granth Sahib before you take the same. 4) The Satguru wants to test your intentions, devotion and sincerity. He is not in need of any worldly things. Whatever you place before him is a token of your affection for him. He is the True Giver. 5) One must spend at least two and a half hour in…

Yeah Dhadi and Kaweshria are known for joking around now and then. -
Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
