Is Counselling Seen As Weak/unnecessary In Sikhi? 1 2
by Guest Nobody- 10 replies
- 1.6k views
A true Sikh knows that in this world their only true friend is Waheguru. However, I am not a true Sikh, but have only recently embarked upon this path with more devotion than ever; not that my devotion is of significant amount. This means that I know my only friend is Waheguru, but at the same time, I am not at such a stage or level where I am so connected with God that I am always happy, always in high spirits. I would appreciate the opinions of the online Sangat regarding counselling. Mentally, I've gone through many different highs and lows. It used to be manageable but this year my thinking has changed a lot and I am no longer able to keep everything to myself. I…

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I have gone through one article where some Sikhs believe that Cow is important to Sikhs maybe they are Namdhari Sikhs.... But is cow important to Sikhs???? and there are some Gurbani Tukhs written in this article by Bhagat Singh http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/sikh-youth/22775-the-importance-of-cows-in-sikhism.html The Khaamadhayn, the cow of miraculous powers, is the singing of the Glory of the Lord's Name, Har, Har. Guru Arjan Dev When it rains, the cows always have grass to graze upon, and housewives can churn the milk into butter. Guru Nanak Dev If the rivers became cows, giving milk, and the spring water became milk an…

What if my father had a child with another woman? And what if he was also beating my mom? Are they not allowed to divorce? My mother doesnt want to leave my dad, but I am still asking and interested. Also my own marriage has been cursed by our relatives. When my husband is near me I feel really sad, i am having many problems.

Hi, I'm not amrit-dhari or anything, but wanted to know what the religious stance is on meat. My Dad is a proper Singh and he doesn't eat meat or eggs. I was a vegetarian for 12 years, but started eating meat again around 6 months ago. My dad actually says that although he doesn't eat meat himself, it's not against Sikhism to eat meat. Also, a friend of mine ate a big-mac and said it's not against sikhism to eat meat, and the no-beef thing is hindu religion, nothing to do with sikhs, so sikhs can eat beef too... Is this true?

Hello... From my readings I understand God to be formless and genderless and incomprehensible. However, I have read in a couple placed that God created man in his image. How could humans be the image of God when God is formless and present in all of creation. To me it makes sense that God would be formless because this whole of creation is God and a manifestation of God. God isn't just a human figure sitting somewhere making the world go round. Can someone elaborate on this notion that God created humans in God's image? Thanks! Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh -I.

Take a look at this link: http://newseastwest.com/hindu-temple-and-sikh-gurdwara-under-same-roof-in-manila/comment-page-1/#comment-276293 I don't like the idea of Guru Granth Sahib Ji within a hindu temple. i have heard of several cases before of hindu mandirs holding guru granth sahib, especially one in malia or mali or someplace like that in europe where they had guru granth sahib in parkash 24/7 without ever doing sukhasan of it, then some singhs had a fight there and took the saroop away successfully to barcelona gurdwara but months later found out the mandir brought another guru granth sahib ji saroop but this time in urdu. anyways with the link i just provided I h…

Is He Cheating On Me? 1 2

Sangat Jio, I have a dilema. I am not sure but i think my husband (to be) may be cheating on me. I cannot be sure 100% and I don't want to make things worse by confronting him but I just need some advice. He gets a lot of phone calls that he doesnt answer when i'm around him and seems to text all the time around me. Also, i recently found parts of an email he sent to a girl from a dating site. There was nothing untowards in the email and he doesnt do seva for various Sikh organisation helping Sikh women. Now inside of me I am sure he is not cheating on me....he is a Gursikh, has high values....but then there is always that little bit of doubt. This email is bugging…

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.
