Bhai Fauja Singh (1936-1978) Bhai Fauja Singh was born on 17th May 1936 in District Gurdaspur. His father Sardar Surain Singh was a middle class farmer. After the formation of Pakistan they moved to the village of Gazneepur, which is 6 miles on the Gurdaspur Dera Baba Nanak road. During his childhood days Fauja Singh always used to be the leader of boys of a similar age in his village. He got baptised while he was studying in the tenth class, but because he did not receive the gift of Naam, the spiritual hunger inside him did not disappear and his mind was always elsewhere. At this small age he disappeared from home for one month and stayed with some Sants and Sadhs. …

The Saint - Soldier Namarata Kaur - KhalsaPride.com As the arrows fly through the air, Our Saint- Soldier crouches under his sheild. Although his memories tell a tale of unthinkable animosity towards his people, He does not regret being a soldier of Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

"It's so lonely here," says the poet, completely unaware of the hundreds of bodies sprawled out on the ground next to him. An arrows makes its way towards him and pierces his heart. As he falls to the grou…

SIKH students at Coventry University came together in memory of all Sikh martyrs. A series of lectures and events was organised to raise awareness of the hundreds of thousands of Sikhs that have given their lives since the 16th century. Students followed the tradition of wearing orange armbands to mark the day, last Friday. Martyrdom in Sikhism is a fundamental concept and represents an important institution in the faith.

Sikhs awash in a faith that demands distinctive dress After a 500-year history of martyrdom, suburban Sikhs are finding their children leading them back to their roots Story by Rukmini Callimachi Photos by M. Scott Mahaskey A Sikh takes a dip in the pool surrounding the Golden Temple, the faith's holiest shrine, in Amritsar. AMRITSAR, Punjab - Ipninder Singh was 4 years old when his mother quietly took him to a beauty salon, cut his long hair and folded his baby turban inside a drawer in their apartment in Glendale Heights. Singh's father, Jasbir, had cut his own hair two years earlier, in 1983, six months after the Sikh family immigrated to the suburbs from Pun…

TALHAN (Jalandhar): The district administration and police succeeded in persuading the devotees on Friday to let the receiver take control of the shrine. The devotees had locked the shrine from inside on Thursday after its management committee had handed over its control to Damdami Taksal. The curfew was still in force in the village. All the 112 devotees, including women, children and the regular shrine staff, agreed to open the gate at about 3 pm after persistent mediation of the senior police officers and panthic leaders, including Harminder Singh Gill, Bhai Manjit Singh and Bhai Ajaib Singh. No use of force was required to convince the devotees, said the officials. …

AMRITSAR: The delay in submitting the passports by the Pakistan High Commission is said to have prevented the Sikh jatha from leaving for Pakistan. The jatha would now leave on Saturday to mark the martyrdom of Guru Arjan Dev at Gurdwara Dera Sahib, Lahore, on June 16. The delay put many Sikh devotees who had arrived at the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) complex from far flung places through a lot of inconvenience. They said that they waited endlessly for the passports to arrive as the SGPC officials kept them giving assurances that they were arriving throughout the day. Jaspal Singh, in-charge Yatra Branch, said that the ministry of home affairs (MHA) h…

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.
