During the British Colonial rule in Kenya, there was a distinct path followed by Asians (Majority Sikhs). Since the British needed skilled labour - Carpenters and Lohars. The Supervisors were given the authority to 'import' the labour. Apparently one would recieve a letter from his relative in Nairobi and he would travel to Mumbai. Here the meeting point was 'Laldei's Hotel' She was appointed by the British to apply or provide passports for onward journey to Kenya via steam ships. If anyone has further info. on the same or even photographs if possible. I would like to document this in our forthcoming commemorative magazine. If any person is interested in the history of G…

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH WAHEGURU SAMRATH... SAMRATH… SAMRATH are the words on the lips of the entire Sangat (congregation) of Connecticut and we would like to share our story with all Sikhs at-large. We, a small group of Connecticut Sikh families, have been assembling for Kirtans (Prayers) and religious discourses since May 1996 on the second floor of a building we were renting at 220 Main Street, Ansonia, Connecticut. Everyone in our Sangat was enjoying our Gurdwara, we called The Guru Nanak Darbar. Our children were especially encouraged to assimilate the teachings of our Gurus and learn to practice the Sikh way of life. Sadly, on Tuesday, October …

I love this shabad... the mind is a beast to control at the best of times, but if we get it to Chant the Name of the Lord, our one Akaal, then all our pains, ills and sins will be erased. Such is the beauty of the Name of our Lord, that remembering Him, just once, with true heart can cure us of this disease of Kaljug... Chant O Mind of Mine, CHANT... Dhan Dhan Guru Amar Daas Jee, the honour of the honourless, the home of the homeless, Dhan Dhan Guru Sahib, Dhan Dhan...

About three years ago I had surgery on my wrist. After a week, I went back to the doctor to open stitches. He was a gursikh guy and Khalastani. He took my hand, took off the bandages and squeezed it a little bit. I screamed a little and told him to be easy on my hand since the wound was still healing. Hearing this he said “What kind of Sikh are you? You support Khalastan yet know nothing about the pain that a Sikh has to go through. Once one gursikh had an encounter with the police. He was shot in his right thigh twice and one bullet in his left leg. He came to my house dragging his legs. As soon as I opened the door, he requested me to take out the bullets. I told him I …

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.
