- Agriculture is no longer the dominant industry in Punjab. The dominant industry is surely IELTS test prep. Seriously, everywhere I looked, in every village or town or roadside, there were advertisements or offices for services to assist with IELTS prep, obtaining a study visa, etc. It is impossible to overstate how obsessed the typical Punjabi is with going abroad. - It is extremely rare to come across a Sikh man with an untrimmed beard that is not gray or white. Basically everywhere I went, I was the only person with an untrimmed beard who wasn't a bajurg. - While I expected the lack of young Singhs based on my last visit, this time I noticed a conspicuous la…

We had a big discussion related to this guy on this forum but i was not personally aware of this guy at that time. So much about him in news, this guys is a proper messed up. Did our youngsters in uk follow him? i hope and doubt that is the case... He is nothing but a groomer and holding quran while in jail. what a mess.. I disconnected with social media for the past few years and today i am finding out that how Influencer of wrong stuff is creeping in our young folk mind. I just couldn't believe on how our kids are making such disgusting stuff as norm now. I know it is kalyug but not that extreme level of kalyug

I am hearing a lot of adverts with KS Makhan performing at these mela type events along with others. I have read that a sirgum is an amritdhari who has cut their hair. And a sirgum is to be avoided like meenas, masands, dheermalias, ramraiyas etc. Of course a sirgum may retake pahul. Should sikhs not collectively ban such personalities, or at least distance ourselves. I know these are panjabi cultural events, but there should be some collective sikh avoidance and the ban of being around sirgum should be made more public and taken m ore seriously by panth!

Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa Waheguru ji ki Fateh. My question is how do i do simran at Work? I really want to spend my work hours remembering the name, at least say satnam Waheguru, but often times, work is so stressful that i am influenced by the events and forget to take his name. Everyday i get frustrated that i could not do simran properly because i was caught up in the events. Why is it not working for me. It is actually making me more stressful than my work problems.

After doing some reading, there is no doubt in my mind that Shiromani Panth Akali Budha Dal is Punjva(5th) Takht, Chalda Vaheer. Damdama Sahib, talwandi sabo is not 5th takht.

I think this is well worth watching. Note that the subject of the documentary is an academic and not some pot head.

Just had this poster passed around amongst Sangat in the Midlands and Up North... Not sure how this has been allowed to happen and continue? Are there any actual active Panthic Sikhs or groups in Southall, Slough, Wembley, Ilford, Hounslow etc? Why the wait for a protest? Why are we not just going in as previous dialogue methods have failed? Any context would be great as we had a similar issue in Birmingham once and nobody waited for an organised protest. We are looking to drive up tonight, but not entirely sure why local Sikhs are waiting?

has anyone noticed that Guru Hargobind Sahib jis sword/tegha has a carving of kali on it. This is the same tegha that guru ji killed painde khan with. Right under the hilt of the sword is a image of a tiger pouncing, tigers pounce onto their prey when hunting, and above the image of the tiger is a image of kali. I'm guessing this is because kali is associated with war and destroying evil. close up detail of the tiger with Persian? writing above it kali

Just finished watching this. Bhai Sahib is an inspiration, his account is special considering how from the age of 6 onwards he had the taang to learn about different faiths, and here he talks about his upbringing, the initial challenges he faced from as he puts it 'staunch' Catholic mother and school, lack of support from committee Sikhs in Jakarta and the affection from Gursikhs in Singapore, to finally having the chance of taking Amrit.
