    In Order To Attract More Non-sikhs To Sikhism, Sikhs Will Have To Modernize 1 2 3 4

    by catsagdn

    If Sikhism is ever to spread beyond the 20 million Punjabis who are Sikhs then Sikhism will have to change dramatically. For example, the discarding of the archaic beard and turban will be a major step in marketing the Sikh faith. Since the vast majority of people around the world (including Sikhs) do not wear beards and turbans Sikhism will be in a great spot to get rid of them permanently. Besides, why would anyone interested in becoming a Sikh want to wear them anyway??????? :rolleyes:

    This is for those who may be interested, I have had the opportunity to write a number of books recently, initially they were for sponsors of the podcasts but due to demand I have decided to put some of them out on a self publication site. Slowly they will increase in number with the Sarkutavali Teeka and Gagar Cho sagar also being added in June and August respetively. At the moment there are three books available to purchase which are the 'Sahaskriti and Gatha Teeka by Mahant Ganesha Singh', 'Matra by Baba Sri Chand Ji' and 'The Jap Ji Sahib Katha 01 - Mul Mantra Katha by Sant Gurbachan Singh Bhindrawale' They are all on the following link https://www.lulu.com/sh…

    Interesting Quote On Hari Singh Nalwa

    by singh_comradz

    In 1881, British Newspapers compared many great generals of the past and came with the following conclusion: "Some people might think that Napoleon was a great General. Some might name Marshall Hendenburgh, Lord Kitchener, General Karobzey or Duke of Wellington etc. And some going further might say Halaku Khan, Genghis Khan, Changez Khan, Richard or Allaudin etc. But let me tell you that in the North of India a General of the name of Hari Singh Nalwa of the Sikhs prevailed. Had he lived longer and had the sources and artillery of the British, he would have conquered most of Asia and Europe…." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hari_Singh_Nalwa wow

    Reincarnation and Karma etc

    by Premi5

    A broad question We all know that Reincarnation and Karma are complex and the results of current and past lives. It is said in Gurbani (I think) that those who think of their partners/women at death are born again as prostitutes; those who think of their house then become ghosts; those who think of money/greed become pigs. Can anyone give some other examples ? I remember there are some of men from Gurus' times who became an animal and later Sants have come into the world and taken those souls out of that Jooni Are there other clear examples of how a specific action will lead to specific consequences? Are those born deaf or blind so, because the…

    Hello Sangat Ji, In a certain baani, reading from translations, while waheguru was being praised in the baani there was a line in which it said you(waheguru) birthed yourself from an egg. I am not sure if this is dasam baani or from sggs, if this is familiar to you or you know which baani/ang this is from, let me know please, and if you have more insights please do reply.

    Sikh Empire; Alternate History. 1 2

    by ZorawarSinghSaini

    18th Century: In this alternate history, I am starting after all the Sikh Misls had united under Maharaja Ranjit Singh. In this time line , Sikh Kings were not tolerant, any and all gaddars and enemies were killed without a thought. This Maharaja Ranjit Singh looked toward the future of the raj after his death and planned it so. The Maharaja did not invite anyone into the inner circle except strict Sikhs, aka Nihangs and those who had no alternate motivations except the far and wide rule of Sikh Fauj. In this scenario the king knew all about the dogra's trecherous nature, so he invaded and routed and slaughtered all dogras while annexing kashmir full into the sikh ra…
