   This tragic excerpt is based on a true story. It is taken mid-story. The Singhs are in a Babbar training camp in Pakistan. Some Singhs have arrived from India and along with them are two survivors of the 1984 carnage in Delhi. This is their story: The atmosphere was silent like a city falls silent after a major storm. All the young men were staring with eyes wide. The Singh began, “First brothers, let us tell our story…” He was hanging his head, trying to hide the tears in his eyes from the other Singhs. “We both were originally from village Kamaalpura in Ludhiana. My name is Hari Singh and his name is Bhaag Singh. We both had a Transport company in Delhi. From childhoo…

   WaheGuru Ji Ka Khalsa WaheGuru Ji Ki Fateh, I had post this story in the topic "What I think about Khalistan" but its gone now so it taught that i should post it again. I just post it to give the Singhs (and me ofcourse!) inspiration to live and try to live as True Singhs. And to give a feeling how our brothers lived during the 80s and 90s in our Punjab. The story of a Singh who lived through unbearable torture and even escaped his execution in a "fake encounter" (long, but worthwhile to read) Statement of Mr. Surinder Singh Fauji before the District Session Judge, Delhi I, Surinder Singh Fauji, am an Ex-serviceman.

    What Is Simran? Is It Just Chanting Waheguroo?

    February 2, 2005 by sher_panjabi

    • 5 replies

    What is Simran? By Manvir Singh Khalsa Simran in Panjabi means ‘yaad karnaa’/ to remember. Therefore you can do simran about your parents, simran on your house, or simran on Vaheguru (the Wonderful Lord). When we remember someone, the rishta, relationship, between that person and us remains alive. When we forget someone the rishta, relationship slowly dies. You would have remembered some of the classmates you went to school or college with. Those people who you remember or they remember you, those relationships remain alive. However if you forget them or they forget you then the relationship falls apart. Simran/remembrance is very powerful. So powerful, that sometime…

    Granthi Sahib Cuts the Grass

    • 953 views

    It was September 1948, Dr. Harinder Singh Dhindsa was teaching our class under a shady tree in the grounds of the Khalsa College, Amritsar. While sitting in the class, I could not help repeatedly looking at the Granthi Sahib of the college gurdwara cutting grass just 50 meters away. This distracted the attention of the teacher. Being otherwise a disciplined student, the teacher excused me a couple of times. Finally, he became concerned at my looking away again and again. He himself looked back to see what was more interesting to me than the class. He also recognized that the gentleman cutting grass was the Granthi Sahib of the gurdwara. We…
