Waaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waaheguru Ji Ki Fateh! Different from my previous posts about Khalistan, I would like to bring up a subject which has been on my mind for a while now. I have visited this site many times now and continue coming back because people on this forum are dedicated to learning and teaching about Sikhi. Our martyrs are respected and remembered, Ghalughara of 1984 is also highlighted. The right of a Sikh homeland is promoted with rational and educated arguments and posts. This forum brings up important issues concerning the Panth and answers are given with references to Gurbani. I respect this site and all its members so therefore I would l…

Crossing boundaries Preserving heritage, indeed! On the land where stood the great deras now walk corrupt men. If religion itself is under assault, how can a heritage be preserved, asks Anees Jung. http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20040111/...ctrum/main5.htm The Harmandar Sahib embodies the religious and socio-cultural core of Amritsar I went to Amritsar with visions of experiencing a heritage that I associated with the Golden Temple, and the Gurbani chanted from dawn to dusk and through the night under the stars ringing serenity. To see stalwart men bowed deeply under rainbow-coloured turbans, and the women as sturdy in looks evoking a sense of gentle order, epito…

http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_525...47,00050001.htm Sikh families try to set up a village in US Press Trust of India New Delhi, January 9 Imagine an Indian village coming up in US. Sounds a bit unusual, but around 1000 Sikh families are trying to build a village and a gurdwara in Coronado historic district. The village concept is not a new one. Sikh villages near gurdwaras are located throughout the world, wherever a sizable community exists, according to Sikhnet, an online Sikh Community. "The idea is to try and create a village here... We get up before dawn to meditate; that's hard to do when you are in your own apartment somewhere," reports Sikhnet in …

Waheguru ji ka khalsa, Waheguru ji ki fateh! Waheguru jio, u guys put up great posts. I had a question! Ive been reading most of the forums in this sections and try to read everyones response adn view. There was one that got me thinkin the one on whats the hardest in sikhi, amritvela, eating meat, cutting hair etc... I was wondering, some i know do dis, i myself also, doing nitnem before u goto sleep. SOme singhs, majority i would say in uni/job... usually stay up till like 2 - 3 am or even later and that is actually the time of Amritvela, so usually do nitnem before going off to bed. Lets get the sangats view on this... is dis rite or wrong ? :T: Bul Chuk Maph

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.
