It has been suggested that Sikh women should not be allowed to participate in certain seva. Answers from Gurmat to excuses for disallowing seva are given below.

Jostling should be brought under control by the management by hiring properly trained and polite Sevadaars who can ensure orderly conduct at Gurdwaras. To suggest that Sikh women will indulge in sexual misconduct during seva is an insult t…

You give your hand when I'm barely floating on water's edge, my awakened soul is forever full of sentiments of endless, growing gratitude... Who am I to speak of your greatness, your stories of sacrifice, the achievements, the gifts you gave us all? Oh Guru Jee, the longing you show, the purity in your words, the devotion which …

My Fearless Guru Tie the crown upon my head And make me your Sikh So we can unite brothers and sisters of all races And not be judged as petty faces My Fearless Guru Tie the crown upon my head And make me your Sikh So I can feel no difference in joyance and pain And be emancipated from these shackles and chains My Fearless Guru Tie the crown upon my head And make me your Sikh So I may transcend the grounds of this solid earth And evade the occurrence of another birth My Fearless Guru Tie the crown upon my head And make me your Sikh So I may surrender my head unto your sword And bleed for the one and only, veritable Lord My Fearless Guru Tie the c…

"each day we stand in the throne-room of the beloved. we utter our prayers in a cathedral inside the cave of our belly. the living truth is not a mere intellectual "truth", but the knowing, the command, the word, the Sabd, the Beloved that lives inside all of us. it wants to expand, it wants us to choose it, to choose life, to choose love, to be its own, its khalsas, to do remarkable things, for it has no meanness, it wants the best for us, to be its valiant heroes, it gives us chances and that me…

THE KEY VIRTUE (Emailed from Ishwinder Singh) Once Bhai Bala Sandhu, a Sikh, came to see Guru Angad Ji. Bala Sandhu and Mardana, the rebec-player, had accompanied Guru Baba, the first Mahal, travels to different parts of the world. Both were witness to the events at all places. Thus Bhai Bala was one of the blessed Sikhs. Guru Baba conferred the 'guruship' on Guru Angad, and himself merged with the Supreme Soul. Bhai Bala survived him. On hearing that Guru Angad had succeeded Guru Nanak, Bala came to see him. Guru Angad seated him besides himself with due respect and courtesy. After offering his obeisance, Bhai Bala sought the Guru's permission to ask some questions, whi…
