Having Trouble Dealing With Father
by Guest harsimran- 7 replies
- 1.1k views
Waheguru Ji Ka khalsa ! Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh !! Forgive me for bringing my problems to you, but I cannot share this with anyone I know. My father went down with back injury when I was 14, and he could not work for a while. While he was down, my mother had to step in to fulfil his duties, along with hers. She worked day and night, while also attending to my father's and our needs. I helped her best I could. Once my father got better, he could not gather the courage to go back to work. We talked with people to get appropriate work to his like, but he did not want to work for anyone. Apparently, his boss at his previous job was not very good, and my father never confronted…

I wanted to know if any sangat have any Sant Jarnail Singh Hoodies like these which I shall attach as files (feel free to check them out), its the black sleeveless one with 'NEVER FORGET 84' on the front and Sant Ji on the back in black and white along with one of his quotes. I know boss stall used to sell them many years back but I cant get a hold of them anywhere now, and really wanted to purchase this style and kind. It would be great if anyone had any spares or willing to give one away.

Since there's so much animosity between Sikhs on the bases of which group they believe others to be in, I think now I need to know what everyone else seems to know!! What's the difference between AKJ, Taksali, and Nihang maryada? AKJ, Taksali and Nihang... what are the other groups called? Why so much negativity attached to the AKJ?

Looking For A Singhni
by Guest guptsingh- 7 replies
- 1.2k views
I've seen people posting marriage requests on here so I thought I'd just put this out there.. I'm an amritdhari singh, 24 years old, teacher, height 5'7". I live in the South of England. I'm looking for someone that is amritdhari and wears a keski/dastaar or would consider this. Age-wise any similar age or younger is fine (One or two years older is ok too). I won't add anything more to this post as more details can be shared afterwards. Like most people, I'm looking for someone whose personality I match with, can share a good laugh, and most importantly is looking for a life centered around Sikhi. If you are interested in finding out more, you can email me with a bi…

Hello All, I have a very close friend that just ended a very long term relationship and I'm probably going to direct him over to this forum - but was wondering if anyone has any wise words from the SGGS to share that can help motivate him. Breakups suck and they really suck the life out of you and get you down. Any wise words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Friendly debate on a very common issue
by Guest Singh Khalsa- 7 replies
- 1.1k views
Hello Fellow members. This is debate session so everyone is welcome! Recently, i have come across a topic which is incredibly common yet never talked about. As a yound adult myself, i feel the hardship one must go through regarding this issue. The issue i am talking about is Masterbation or self ejaculation. I had search countless solutions for this problem myself yet it was practically useless as noone discussed about this. Maybe it is something one must go through alone or that everyone has the solution, whichever it is, i dont know. The point im trying to imply is that i (and others too) want an logical assurance that Masterbation is either good or bad, atlea…

So during amritvela last night I started my naam simran and about 30 mins into I could feel a pull in the middle of forehead. Then all of sudden I start spinning like the conscious in my head is spinning. And I'm still repeating vaheguru, it felt very good and very uplifting but my question is.. is this normal and does this mean I'm progressing ?

when u get darshan of gurujee or shaheed singhs/singhanis
by Guest curiousthoughtsat1am- 7 replies

wjkk wjkf i was heading to sleep thinking guru ji and his shaheedi faujaan are ang sang - then i wondered, when one gets darshan of guru sahib, what age are they? I mean to say do they look as they did at the time of their joti jot/shaheedi....or are they much older now? Or younger? I know once they merge into akaal purakh they are timeless - but just a curiosity brainwave.... is the darshan form of shaheed baba fateh singh still 5 years old? Is the darshan form of guru gobind singh still in their jawani? And that of guru nanak dev ji and baba deep singh in their elder years?? sorry it's a weird question but ive never thought about it and now that it came to min…

back then was waaaay different. ppl didn’t attend higher education or have much to do after the age of like… 13, lol. you’d have 13 year olds boys and girls that know how to do kethi, cook entire meals, etc nowadays even 22 year olds are extremely immature and can be sheltered. the average person doesn’t know how to do anything except their 9-5 which they are probably half arsing as well. -
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.
