Shiv Sena splits; North Indian leaders resign New Delhi (PTI): The Shiv Sena on Wednesday split, with the outfit's North Indian leaders resigning en-masse protesting its "outrageous conduct" towards non-Marathis in Maharashtra and announcing they would form a separate party. "Shiv Sena is no different from Khalistan and Jammu and Kashmir militant groups which are trying to create a rift between people along regional lines. The main aim of these forces is to split our country," Shiv Sena's North India chief Jai Bhagwan Goyal told reporters here today. "The outrageous conduct of Shiv Sena towards non-Marathis and North Indians in Maharashtra has deeply hurt the sentiment…

Shocked at what I found in Harvard Law School!

SSA Sangat Ji, I was looking at various things and what not and came across the 3 main quotes on the entrance hall at Harvard Law School and was shocked to find a quote on there from a book many of us on here belittle and say that there is nothing of value to find in it. The 3 quotes are: “An unjust law is no law at all.” - Saint Augustine (Augustine of Hippo) “To no one will We sell, to none will We deny or defer, right or justice.” - Magna Carta of King John “O ye who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses To Allah, even as against Yourselves, or your parents, Or your kin, and whether It be (against) rich or poor: For Allah can best…

Short Hair

Hello, I have a problem with my joora. My hair is pretty short due to me not taking care of it when I was younger. I am 17 years old. My hair is about to my bellybutton. the problem is when I do a joora, the part after the knot is not long enough to wrap around tightly, so after i wrap it, it will get undone because it is loose. is there anyway to grow my hair longer soon?

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Sath Sangath jiyo let me first off start by saying that I am not a gursikh. Recently I decided to start doing paath after thinking about everything that Waheguru has done for me. Anyways before doing any paath I talked to my mom. My mom is not a gursikh either but she believes in Rada Suami Ji abd she told me she isn't amritdhari because she received something from rada suami ji that is very similar to amrit and she follows the same rules as amritdhari sikhs. Anyways when I talked to my mom she told me that every paath has a certain time that it should be done. For example rehras sahib in the evening and japji sahib in the m…

Should I Do This Pooja? 1 2 3

I'm 25 with no job and various other problems. I am a keshdhari singh and believe in going to the gurdwara as the route out of any problem. I am heavily against poojas. The thing is, my mother is not as sikh inclined as me. She used to do sukhmani sahib paat and maybe still does now and then. She has grown really worried and tired of me not having a job and my general condition, so out of being very desperate she went to see an astrologer behind my back. The astologer told her a few things about me which were quite accurate. He also told her that people who were born when I was born, we have all been pretty messed up due to the alignment of certain planets. He a…

Hi All I am going through a very turbulent time in my life. A lot of upheavel. During this I felt that someone has been and has played a big part on my demise. And if that persion wasnt there this could have been avoided somewhat. Anyway I am to blame for this as well. But I know something about this person that I feel the hatered; and want to grass them to the authorities. Have been debating in my head about this but feel like doing this. Where does one stand at the end of the day according to Gurmat. Is everything fair in Love and war rule applies in the general life as well. Afterall we have to be very astute in this kaljug but shouldnt forget our Guru…

I got into a fight at school with a kid who trying to be funny by taking the mic out of my phag, I got into a right with with him and gave him a bloody nose and a bruise under his eye, I got called into student services and had to talk with several teachers, I thought I did the writing because tbh he deserved it, I gave him a chance to apologise he didn't so I took maters serious, but now I really don't know if it was write, the way I think is, I'm the son of Sri guru gobind Singh ji, I've had countless racial abuse over my life and thats the reason I trained kick boxing and got stronger, so I could fight these ignorant people, but when I had a chat with one of the teache…

Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it. -
Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.

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.
