I went to the local post office the other day and saw the poster to join the US army and its 3rd Infantry Regiment, which is called the Old Guard and their job is to protect the US capitol and its most important resident the President. I noticed that in one of the pictures they have TURBANED SIKH, probably Chief of Indian Army receiving a salute from them. It was interesting and just wanted to share it with you guys... (NOTE: US Army does not allow any combat soldiers or ranking officer to have beard, mustache or turban.) Look on the picture on the right hand side top :s (http://www.army.mil/oldguard/images/newrecruite2.jpg) To see more pics of Gen Singh with US army …

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh || Ghadar Movement struck against British Empire during initial years of 20th Century. This movement was started by Sikhs. (From about 6000-7000 Gadris who returned to Punjab from USA, Canada etc. only 25-30 were with heir cuts. - See Satinder Sanyal Book. But most books (Other than written by Ghadris them selves) say that Ghardris were Punjabis/Hindustanis. The use of work "Sikhs" is deliberately avoided. Some say that Gadris were Comrades (non-religious) but there are evidences that they were all Sikhs and many (rather mostly) were Amritdharis. Many such issues are now brought into light by Sikh Shahadat Magazine (in August …

Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh. Sangat ji, daas started writing a pothi sahib earlier last year but did not bother to ask any rules or anything. Could you guys give me advice on which bania I should write. Right now I have japji sahib, jaap sahib, swaiye, chaupai sahib, and like 10 pauria of anand sahib. I am planning on writing full nitnem and extra banis like sri shaster naam mala and braham kavach. Baaki, daas keeps sucham and treats the panne with satkar. Please just warn me of any other rules of writing gurbani. Bhul chuk maaf waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh. Btw I can't send pics right now but I will try soon.

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Many people, even o this forum, have said that just change with the world man! Well, no. Why? A real sikh will never change with the times. Why should we change with the times. Where have these modern sikhs come from? Why do u need to change? Did guru je make a flaw in the khalsa? NO. A real singh of kalgidhar patshah will never change. When singhs say, dont listen to music, sont watch movies, dont watch tv, they say youre the taliban. Well, thats a escuse. Why should a singh waste his time with these things. ALL your time shold be spent on naam, sewa, gurmat veechar, and sadh sangat. Fine skool is good too, u should g…

Wrong Gurbani translations and ignorance are being used by several Dawah and Christian Missionary organisations. Even if not, it is our duty to understand GurShabad correctly, so lets use this thread to correct (wrong) prevalent Shabads. ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵਣੁ ਮੁਸਕਲੁ ਜਾ ਹੋਇ ਤਾ ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵੈ ॥ ਅਵਲਿ ਅਉਲਿ ਦੀਨੁ ਕਰਿ ਮਿਠਾ ਮਸਕਲ ਮਾਨਾ ਮਾਲੁ ਮੁਸਾਵੈ ॥ ਹੋਇ ਮੁਸਲਿਮੁ ਦੀਨ ਮੁਹਾਣੈ ਮਰਣ ਜੀਵਣ ਕਾ ਭਰਮੁ ਚੁਕਾਵੈ ॥ ਰਬ ਕੀ ਰਜਾਇ ਮੰਨੇ ਸਿਰ ਉਪਰਿ ਕਰਤਾ ਮੰਨੇ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਵੈ ॥ ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਰਬ ਜੀਆ ਮਿਹਰੰਮਤਿ ਹੋਇ ਤ ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੁ ਕਹਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ 141, Guru Granth Sahib Ji Wrong translation: Where is anything like 'religion of the Prophet' 'faith of Mohammad' mentioned in the original Gurbani? Actual translation (taken from SearchSik…
