GuruFatehJi. KhalsaJi, Here's the next topic for essays: HOW HAS BEING A SIKH CHANGED YOU? Be it inspirational or otherwise, we all see our religion from different perspectives. While many of us become stronger in Sikhi as they realise the beauty of our religion and its teachings, there are also others who have felt unobliged to it. Here's a chance to tell us your story. Tell us everything, share with us your inner-most thoughts and feelings, as though you were confiding with the Guru. We all love Sikhi, but not everyone travels the journey at the same pace. So let's here it from you: 'Being a Sikh, how has your life changed?' Good luck with the essay and looking fo…

GuruFatehJi. KhalsaJi, The first topic for the Essay Marathon is: A conversation with Guru Gobind Singh Imagine that you had a dream or it really happened. What would you ask or tell GuruJi? In return, what do you imagine GuruJi would have asked you or answered to your questions? Your essay is not restricted to the number of words, but let's target to a minimum of 1000 words, it could be longer than that if you wish. Try and imagine the situation you will be writing about and study a little of the background of the Guru and his times (and his writings) to seek the answers that you feel how he would have answered. The answers do not have to be accurate, but they will g…

Sikhee Through My Eyes Sikhee is to me, a love and devotion, as waves to the sea, Sikhee is to me, like as rays to the sun and leaves to the tree. Sikhi is to me, a pure white lily in the pond, like a flower flourishing from the ground. Sikhee is to me, a worship of total submission, belief bathing in Amritbani's sound. I wish, I pray, I beg, I cry, I dream, have a thrist and hunger of same eyes as of Bhai Nad Lal Goya. A blissful Tenth Master, asked one day and said to Bhai Nand Lal Goya, "I am much pleased and happy and would like to give my bliss to you, Lal Ji. But what bliss you receive," said Tenth Master, "You should also be pleased Lal Ji." Replied Bhai N…

why prashaad? 1 2

why do we have prashaad? <_< @ and it is still a good idea? the global rise in obesity and decrease in activity does not honour sikhi, in my opinion, because it means we are not honouring our bodies. a bit of prashaad once a day is fine and im sure was fine back in the day........ but prashaad nowadays as one of many daily indulgences with choclate, cakes etc does not seem good...we should not let ourselves get so unhelathy that prashaad provision should be questioned because so long as we lead healthy lives, prashaad can be seen in the light of a blessing and perhaps 'treat' guru angad dev ji established the need for sikhs to honour their bodies by taking ca…

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.
