some of us hate sikh weddings. i personally do. heres why.... the dhol wale come into the gurdwara with people dancing and the groom on the horse. an insult to maharaj. not even the gurus used to do such things. when guru arjuns wife went to see baba buddha ji for a son, baba buddha ji told her to get out (she made all these nice dishes and came on horse). so when she came with food she made herself and walked it. baba ji was most pleased. who are we to do such insultive things? of course the horse gets too scared to let the groom get down with all that noise of the dhol, so they lead it into the gurdwara. i saw that on a video. then the milni in the gurdwara is anothe…

I was just reading the description of Bhagat Singhs atheist views on allaboutsikhs.com And he was bashing his belief in all types of religion, and said he could not believe in any religion with the mystics and doctrines of sikhism. Across his reports and letters, i came across his writings of : "Within a week it is to be pronounced. What is the consolation with the exception of the idea that I am going to sacrifice my life for a cause ? A God-believing Hindu might be expecting to be reborn as a king, a Muslim or a Christian might dream of the luxuries to be- enjoyed in paradise and the reward he is to get for his sufferings and sacrifices. But what am I to expect? I k…

GuruFatehJi. Just an idea. Wanted to know how many of us on this forum would be interested, and dedicated. If each one of us can particpate, you would be amazed at just how much we know and can add on to it. Every fortnight, a topic will be posted on which anyone can write an essay on it. No limit on length. At the end of the fortnight, all essays are then compiled into a kind of a collected post and then posted again on the group, and other sites, as one post. The subjects chosen will be general . Don't be shy, tell me you're game! If there can be at least 10 interested people in this Essay Marathon, I can then post the first subject in a week from now. Trust me, th…

I was just reading the posts on the Indian election, and Babbar Khalsa. Sonia Gandhi is coming into power not cause of the Guru's hukam, nor was it Guru's hukam for 1984 to occur. These things happened cause they did, not cause the Guru control's our destiny. Wake up people, how the hell are you going to think that the freedom movement is alive. Cause that a few so called Khalistaniz escaped? Do you recall what happened in 1984? There were thousands of Khalistaniz like this, and we were all portrayed as terrorists, so how are a couple of thousand at the most going to create Khalistan, and out match the Indian Army, and there Tanks? Right, fighting with AK 47's just th…

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Please read this and post your responses of what you think of this answer. Sat Sri Akal. Are Nirankari's really a sect of Sikhism? If you visit their website www.nirankari.com they hold satsangs in all parts of India and in fact all over the world. Look at the samagams held in Maharashtra, Calcutta, Uttar Pardesh, Darjling, Banglore, Hydrebad etc.. Are these people really Sikh or bear their origins from within Sikhism? Look forward to hearing from you. Gurpreet Bhatia. --- I suppose that some would not consider Nirankari's as Sikhs; others consider them as the best Sikhs. Personally, I feel that it is not my busi…

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.
