Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Fellow Singhs/Kaurs i found this article at a site: http://www.stewartmorris.com/personal/index.htm to me this article sounds much more balanced towards the Sikh-India trouble.....however the usuall 'terrorist' label given to Sant Bhindranwale is also here..... what do you guys this about the way Stewart Morris writes..... How did India’s Punjab crisis arise and how has it been resolved? The storming of the Golden Temple in Amritsar by the Indian Army during Operation Bluestar has been described as “a disastrous political decision and a seriously bungled military operation”. Reportage in the Indian press tended t…

:nihungsmile: Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! 8 and a half years ago I was totally unaware of Sikhi. I had cut hair and used to eat meat, it was the norm for me and my family as a whole. I knew we went to a place called a Gurdwara, and that there was something special about the Gurdwara, that separated it from my house or any other building. But I knew nothing about our Guru Sahibaans or of the rich history of Sikhi. Then when I was about seven years old, I went along with my family to Panjaab because it was my Mama Ji's wedding. The wedding took place as normal, I carried on living life unsuspecting the big change that would take place within me in…

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH Pyaari Saadh Sangat jee, being a student of electrical engineering who tries reciting the daily Banis, i felt like expressing an electrifying experience regarding the Nitnem Banis. Lets suppose that our soul is a motor. A motor on which dust has accumulated. So before starting it we need to clear of the dust. This is done by repeating or meditating on WAHEGURU for sometime before starting Nitnem. Once the dust is cleared, the motor is ready to be started. Japuji Sahib is the starter and charges the motor, generating the least minimum voltage. No wonder it is said that if a Sikh practices just one Bani, it must be Japuji Sahi…

Here is a story I'd like to share 26. Mortal (Dehthaari) Guru Gets OutlawedThere was another event in relation to Doctor Kartar Singh which is necessary to mention, which enforced the path of Gurbani in his life even further.

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! On his return journey home he stopped at Saidpur in western Punjab during the invasion of the first Mughal Emperor Babar. On seeing the extent of the massacre by the invaders, Mardana asked Guru Nanak why so many innocent people were put to death along with those few who were guilty. Guru Nanak told Mardana to wait under a banyan tree and after a while he would return to answer his question. While sitting under the tree Mardana was suddenly bitten by an ant. In anger Mardana killed as many ants as he could with his feet. Guru Nanak said to him, "You know now Mardana, why do the innocents suffer along with the guilty?"

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Author: Kulbir Singh Date: 04-17-03 15:53 One day Guru Sahib - Guru Gobind Singh jee asked sangat who the king was during the time of Bhagat Kabir jee. One Sikh said that the king was Humayun. Another Sikh got up and said that the king was in fact Babur. Another Sikh suggested that the king during the time of Bhagat Kabir jee was Sikandar Lodhi. Many other guesses were made. All this time Guru Sahib kept smiling and did not approve of any name. In the end, Guru Sahib said that the purpose of his question was to tell that the bhagat (devotee of Vaheguru) is greater than any other person in the world. He said that…

This is an email that was sent to a young lady who’s friend was contemplating breaking her Amrit by cutting her hair, and drinking alcohol. She was not sure as to whether or not to help her, or still be friends with her. The message below was sent by a Singh: I do not think your friend completely understood what taking Amrit is about... When taking Amrit you are giving yourself to your Guru. People say it is about giving your head, actually, it's a lot more than that. When you take Amrit you are not only giving your body, you are also giving your mind and soul (aathma) to Guru. When you receive Amrit you say to Guru that "I am yours, I no longer belong to 'me'. Whe…
