Jhoot from a non Sikh
by Guest Gupt- 1 reply

I’m an Amritdhari. Some of my best friends are non-Sikh and white. We socialise a lot in bars and restaurants. We share our food and we are more than happy to eat from the same plate. It doesn’t bother me at all and it doesn’t bother them either. One day an Amritdhari guy randomly approached me at a restaurant when I was with my friends and said that he saw that my non Sikh white friend was eating from the same plate as me and this was jhoot. He said I shouldn’t be doing this as it will cause me to have evil thoughts and change the way I act spiritually. I understood partly where he was coming from, buy by me eating from the same plate as my best friends who …

I am on a business trip in Europe and will be visiting one of the car manufacturer's plant in Germany. As per the safety guidelines I will be required to wear a safety helmet. I know that there is a law in UK which exempts Sikhs from wearing a safety helmet. Is there any similar law which provides this exemption in Germany or I have to wear one?

George Price
by Guest CmdrTako- 0 replies
- 366 views
I was just wondering what the Sikh perspective was about what happened to George Price. Short story is, he proved that we all are one and that Sewa is in your own best interest, had a religious experience and then killed himself. What went wrong with his journey though the five Khands? http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/healthy-living/george-price-the-altruistic-man-who-died-trying-to-prove-selflessness-doesn-t-exist-a7237866.html

In India there are: 400 million so-called untouchables + 600 million so-called backward castes So given that there are ONE BILLION people who could benefit from Sikhi just inside India then ... ... why are Sikhs raising thousands for Arabs in Syria or Bangladeshi's calling themselves Rohingya?

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.
