After witnessing an incident on the forum today i am left confused about the present state of people around us in general and sikhs in particular. This question has been on my mind for a long time that why do people fail to come forward even after witnessing gruesome crimes.. racial assaults, rapes, murders, thefts etc. All they need to do is step forward and reveal the truth, is it that hard to speak truth?? We as sikhs beat the dhols about leading a truthful life but is ignoring something that is clearly wrong truthful living?? Why do people tend to stay away from doing a righteous act?? What is it that stops them, are they dead or maya has consumed em so much that they…

Our dying for any other reason and eating meat could save your life? Sometimes I get confused between upholding faith until death, and self preservation. ie muslims are allowed to eat pork, if they are starving and can find nothing else to eat If there is no religious ruling, tell me your personal feelings on the issue and why you feel that way...please :-) *Mod Note* Topic closed. You should keep all your questions in one thread. No need to create multiple threads for them. Thanks

say your in a serious relationship/engagement but because you have a past relationship history your partner insists you get a STI/STD test done would you? or say you suspect your fiancee may have a STI/STD would you ask him/her to get one done? Or should your past remain in the past even if your partner may have caught something?

Can anyone take Amrit? If somebody from another religion converted to Sikhi by their own free will and choice and then took Amrit would all the Amritdharis on this site see them as a 100% true Amritdhari Sikh? My Friend is thinking of becoming a Sikh but her/his family is not all from a Sikh Punjabi back ground. Can that person become a full Amritdhari like the people who have brown punjabi background only? Muslims and Christians are all around the world as different races but Sikhs seem to be mainly brown punjabi background people only Please give you true answer. would you see that my friend as a true Amritdhari?

Seeing how marriages are not lasting longer as they used to in our parents generations. And rising divorce rates amoung western based and born asian desi's. Is it wise to get your spouse to be to sign a prenuptial agreement just in case things go wrong and you dont end up suffering financial hardship. This question is particularly important for Sikh males as women are now able to financially earn for themselves and live independently without a man but usually the male will be out of pocket or out of a home if everything is divided equally and his wife did not contribute financially towards buying the house. Has anyone signed prenuptial agreement? And what is the…

This happened like more than month ago but I just remembered to post today... There is this Singh who is in jail in Fresno county. He has been in jail for 13 years I think...He took a flight from India and the moment he landed in USA he was basically arrested. He's wanted by the Indian government for murders...stuff having to do with khalistan I think...he killed some police officers. Anyway, he has like around 30 some charges against him. All but 3 have been dropped and these 3 are the main big murders. So this Singh is in jail and the sangat here has been raising funds to pay for his attorney and all those legal costs, and they send money to his family in India. Once…
