im amritdhari sikh (bibi) last night i had a dream, i had removed all my kes from my head, became bold (just like how a patient removes all their kes before a head surgery), but it wasnt for fashion purpose, it was weird, hard to explain i was just bold ... i remember looking at my self in the mirror and it felt so real... later in the dream i realised i commited a big sin and i was guilty, a feeling worse than killing someone probably but then i tied my keski back on and pretended that i had kes underneath so that ppl wont notice... i began to cry in the dream i looked @ my self in the mirror, and after a few hours i removed my keski and my kes grew back (just like ho…

vaheguru ji ka khalsa vaheguru ji ke fateh i was just wondering what bibia wear in this heat, because when i shop for summer tops, the sleeves are too short, or theyre too baggy and so exposing armpit area, or necklines are too wide/low, exposing bra strap, etc. also i usually tuck my kirpan in my trouser/jeans but in the heat it is getting to be more uncomfortable! i havent been practising sikhi for long so please forgive my silly questions!

Fateh So basically after Guru Ji did kirpa and comin closer to sikhi, i started hanging wiht my old friends less. there not bad people but they are more into drinking and pub crawls and clubbing, etc. then other things. I dont really know alot of gursikhs like as mates, I was wondering what do gursikhs do in spare time. I mean i kno u go to kirtans etc. but when u just wana chill and stuff, like ive got summer hols comin now, all my old mates r planning days out and stuff, but i dont wana do that, because like i sed even tho they are good people, its not my thing nemore and its not a good influence on my mind etc. Like kirtan etc. is at night and u r there for meditating…

Sat Sri Akal ji I am 32 years old, well qualified and with a good professional future.My parents had been searching for quite a while for a suitable match groom for me, but due to some reason or the other I couldn't see any of those prospective grooms as my future husband. I prayed to waheguru every day to find the perfect match for me. I did Sehaj Path, woke up at Amrit vela, did mool mantra jaap, went to gurudwara sahib every day. In the meantime this whole finding a groom thing was turning into utter torture for me. Then finally about two years ago It seemed Akal Purkh had answered my prayers. Our parents exchanged our numbers and we started talking. This person w…

vaheguroo ji ka khalsa vaheguroo ji ki fateh saadh sangat jeeo, when I took amrit, I was told to wash my hair daily, atleast with water everyday if not shampoo…I want to know, should one wait for the kes to dry, or just rub them hard enough and tie keski over them even if they are mildly wet? Also I m not able to keep rehit properly, like amritvela, nitnem, naam simran, bibek, etc. and also I m always under attack by kaam and krodh… I also tie my beard at certain times…I intend to re-take amrit in future and follow it in a much better way when I m financially independent…I know I should be regular and strict in amritvela, and also I am not able to keep proper bibek as o…

Does anyone watch the Yoga Programme 7-8 everyday on Aastha Television? Some Swami Ramdev? Well since my mum found out about this channel from her gujerati friend my mums adicted to the Yoga Programme, but apparently he isn't a good man. I don't like my mum watching this as she's kind of changed her views saying how the man is speaking the truth and now it's turned real bad to the extent that she wants to go and meet this so called Swami thing. This is causing a little family problems too, and Sangat Ji I dont know what to do cause she thinks he can sort her Arthritis out. When me or my dad advice her just to see the local doctor she's not seeming to listen. Before …

What Do Punjab Sikhs Think Of White Converts 1 2 3
by Guest Steven Joe- 21 replies
- 15k views
What do Sikhs who are ethnically and culturally Sikh think of white converts or white people who want to convert? I am half white and half Japanese, I am interested in the Sikh religion and I want to visit a Gudwara in the United states but I don't know any Sikh people and I am afraid I would be unwelcome or that I wont understand what goes on at the Gudwara if I don't speak Punjabi. Please be honest with your answer, I know the religion teaches peace and acceptance but so does Buddhism and I got many stares while in Japan going to Buddhist meetings and temples. If you have an experience meeting a convert please tell me your thoughts about it and what others around them s…

What do the numbers mean in gurbani?
by Guest Din Bahir- 3 replies
- 1.6k views
I recently welcomed The Guru Granth Sahib in to my home and began reading this translation (chahail). There are the numbers 1,2,3,4,5 and some like 4.4, 5.2 found before sentences. I never read The Guru myself so I am quite unaware as to what these numbers mean. Are they to denote the chords on an instrument or pitches of the voice? Can anyone help? Thank you!

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.
