  1. The ...E... life !!!!! In this world of E-mails, E-ticket, E-paper, E-recharge, E-transfer and the latest E-Governance... Never Forget "E-shwar ( God )" who makes e-verything e-asy for e-veryone e-veryday. "E" is the most Eminent letter of the English alphabet. Men or Women don't exist without "E". House or Home can't be made without "E". Bread or Butter can't be found without "E". "E" is the beginning of "existence" and the end of "trouble." It's not at all in 'war' but twice in 'peace'. It's once in 'hell' but twice in 'heaven'. "E" represented in 'Emotions' Hence, all emotional relations like Father, Mother, Brother, Sister,wife & friends have 'e' in them. "E" also represents 'Effort' & 'Energy' Hence to be 'Better' from good both "e" 's are added. Without "e", we would have no love, life, wife, friends or hope & 'see', 'hear', 'smell', or 'taste' as 'eye' 'ear', 'nose' & 'tongue' are incomplete without "e". Finally no 'Life' & 'Death' without "e". Hence GO with "E", but without E-GO.

  4. He said something dumb in his early 20s? I think most people do and yes he is Charles' son, just look at the resemblence between a young Prince Philip and Harry. They look very similar. As for racism? Apne can be the biggest racists in the world. The way people speak of black people in Punjab is disgusting 'oh they have big lips', 'they look scary'. These are the things people openly say. Then you have the East African Sikhs who used to refer to black people as 'boy'. Sikhs can also be racist to other dark skinned Sikhs and Indians. As for the Royal family they are dodgy. Just look at Prince Charles' friendship with notorious paedophile Jimmy Saville. They are not a family to look up to as they are born into privilege and have not achieved much of note. It makes me laugh at how people bow down to them. I guess people love being slaves.

  5. Thanks a lot. Also, 1) Could you remove anonymous reactions? I (and a lot of others, including @GurjantGnostic) don't see the need for anonymous reactions. Or perhaps only keep "like" and "funny" as a reaction. When you like something, you agree with it, there is nothing more to say. If you don't like something, you should explain yourself. There is nothing more frustrating that an army of sockpuppets coming by and putting a "confused bootha" face on your post, with no explanation of why they did so. 2) The old frontpage layout was better where it had on the right sidebar the most recent threads, then the most recent posts. All the way on the main bottom, it had the top posters. Frankly, top posters is not something that people urgently need to know. It's more of an ego thing for people who post a lot (such as me and about dozen others). The reason for having top threads on the right sidebar is that's where most people know of the existence of a thread. If it's not there, it doesn't exist. They don't go into the subforums. I know that there's still a top posts section on the frontpage, but that easily gets overwhelmed by a few posts in the same thread. The top threads section is more stable in getting attention out to some threads that didn't have the most recent posts. I know that the layout I'm requesting is already present in the thread pages. But I'd really like to see it on the homepage, because that's the starting off point for most people, and it's really awkward to have to open up a random thread, just to then see what the top threads are.

  10. Based on my understanding 1. Mind becomes jot saroop(IkOngkar-One non dual pure aware being) as Guru maharaj says- Man tu jot saroop hai apna mool painchain, absolute truth is perceived and expressed clearly via pure cognition driven by divine will than ego personal will. 2. Jot saroop is awaken universal unified pure awareness/consciousness - there is no individuality there nor there is separate mind, mind becomes unman(reference in gurbani) or mind becomes sanatan (ancient) see reference in gurbani. 3. Jot saroop can perceive and travel to various states of existence but not confined by them. 4. After merging, i am assuming you are talking about bhramgyan, after bhramgyan you realize the backdrop substratum truth (which is primal truth present all along - aad such jugad sach hai bhi sach nanak hosi bhi sach) you are that there is no separate somebody, other, there is only all pervading Vahiguru -one(Ekangkar/IkONGKAR) one without second.

  11. Brother, Mind is duality, is confusion, is maya, is change, is variety, is limited, is the source of pain, is subtle matter, is not divinity.... Just as long as water is in the bottle, even if thrown in the sea, the water in the bottle is separate from its origin, the Sea, though there is water on all sides. in a similar way, in order for the water to become one with the sea, the bottle has to be broken, in a similar way, mind is only with the soul, as long as the soul is under the control of the mind. Once the soul, is released from the mind by His apaar kirpa through Bhakti, the mind becomes helpless and powerless, thus only releases the soul from its clutches, then the soul rides higher and higher, in the jahaaz of Nam, and reaches Sach Khand, upon reaching there, it becomes one with the only one original and permanent existing reality, which is none other than Wahiguru Akal Purukh. Just as all the rivers flow and merge in the Ocean, to become one with it without any distinction, so do all souls do upon reaching there, means merging in Him. Souls do not go there for vacation, or sightseeing, or attending a musical concert, or give it any name ...But souls yearn to go there, for it is their origin, where once they were one with Him, without any second, third or multiplicity. For there only Wahiguru exists. Sach Khand vaseh Nirankar There is no such destruction of the soul. For the soul being a particle of the Ocean, holds all the same virtues/qualities, as the Ocean has; that of divinity, of Sach, of chit, of Anand, of immortality. If the soul was not of the same nature as Him, it could never become one with Him. If there is any destruction prior to our union with Him, that is of the mind only, and it is due to this very mind that we are confined in the mayavee creation, taking our bodies to be our real identity and nature...and from there on, all our problems start. Holding on to Him, through His bhakti, is the key to be freed from all this mind and maya, and also the key of our union with Him. Stay blessed. Sat Sree Akal.

  12. Yes, unfortunately, I had to read it. The article can be described as the very definition of hate speech. Pure vitriol. __________________________________________________________________ As far as I can speak for myself, I have reported the article. Credit where credit is due, to google blogspot; it is very easy to do. Simply 1. Go to google's report "Hate speech, violent or crude content on Blogger" page at https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/82111?hl=en 2. Copy the url of the article from post #1 2. Paste it into the field provided at the boutin of the page and hit submit. And that's it. I encourage everyone who reads this to do the same. It is outrageous that the said hate article is still being hosted by google on it's servers, and it will only be taken down if it receives a barrage of complaints in disgust. It only takes a few seconds to report the page so I again encourage everyone who reads this to do it. Thank you.

  14. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh 500 years ago, long before Mark Twain and Greg King, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji said; ਮੂਰਖਖ਼ ਨਦਲਿ ਨ ਲੁਝੀਅਖ਼| Moorkhai naal na lujhee-ai: Don`t argue with fools. and Sri Guru Amar Das Ji said: ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਅੰਧੇ ਸੁਧਿ ਨ ਕਾਈ ॥ Manmukh andhe sudh na kaaee: The blind self willed Manmukh have no understanding at all. This anonymous racist blog writer is truly an ignorant fool that has no understanding.

  16. I'm glad one of the Sikh sites have a simran/meditation section because its the core of the dharm. We need one on this forum, if we don't were going to get further and further from Naam then the only thing we will have is more and more arguments because are mind is not under control ਜਿਨੀ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਚੇਤਿਓ ਸੇ ਬਹਣਿ ਨ ਮਿਲਨੀ ਪਾਸਿ ॥ जिनी गुरमुखि नामु न चेतिओ से बहणि न मिलनी पासि ॥ Jinī gurmukẖ nām na cẖeṯi▫o se bahaṇ na milnī pās. Those who do not meditate on the Lord, as Gurmukh, are not permitted to sit near the Lord. ਦੁਖੁ ਲਾਗਾ ਬਹੁ ਅਤਿ ਘਣਾ ਪੁਤੁ ਕਲਤੁ ਨ ਸਾਥਿ ਕੋਈ ਜਾਸਿ ॥ दुखु लागा बहु अति घणा पुतु कलतु न साथि कोई जासि ॥ Ḏukẖ lāgā baho aṯ gẖaṇā puṯ kalaṯ na sāth ko▫ī jās. They suffer the most horrible pain and suffering, and neither their sons nor their wives go along with them.
