Hi, Just for all indians, just one thing except invention of Zero what we have given to world. Sincerely i think there are many brilliant people out there but not given chance. Even if any indian wants to be proud there is nothing to be, they have not done anything in past. See history and no future. There is no R&D all development is based on foreign tech. Give me 10 points of things of real importance given to world by people living in India not migrated.. So truth is there is no point of getting proud as it is fully empty. The indians have not done anything worthwhile in last 2 centuries to be proud of I am Sikh not Indian. Regards

Just one thing. Both Karnatka and Tamil Nadu are riperion States, so there is a logic. It is genuine dispute. Haryana is not a riperion state, so it is not a dispute but a robbery of Punjab water. Anyway nice information on Cavery issue. Regards.

Hi, I am in stage of learning Particle engines in OpenGl that are used to provide effects as Fire and Water effects in Animations and games. Will that be of any use in future as i was thinking of no use to anybody and giving up. Do you want to use such effects in future? Regards

Hi, Are you looking for something like these. Not created by me. Regards

I just want to know that whether there was any sniper. Using Sniper Guns don't mean you are sniper. Sniper is a very difficult art. Needs art of hiding, extreme marksmen, patience and only striking at key elements. I have not yet find any story of sikh sniper.

Hi, I wanted to design a screensaver and wanted to produce fire effects around Khanda and water effects below. Has anyone ever worked on any particle engine? I wanted to induce other effects also.I am planning to use Visual C. Anyone having any exp in OpenGl? Thanx.

Hi, Was snipers used in Punjab anytime? Just was thinking about snipers. Was there any sikh sniper. Regards

Just found on net, anyone watched it?????? ------------------------------------------------------------ My Mother India Patricia meets her Indian family Safina, her mother Patricia, Father Jit and Grandfather. My Mother India is a passionate documentary told by the child of a mixed marriage. Although the film starts of as a humorous and lighthearted documentary about an eccentric, multicultural family, it unfolds into a complex commentary on the social, political and religious events of the anti-Sikh riots of 1984. The director traces her family history, from the time her mother left Australia to start a family in India with her husband, until the personal and political pressures of the anti-Sikh riots of 1984 lead her mother to send her children back to Australia. Jit saying his prayers Safina's father Jit reconverted to Sikhism. My Mother India is a powerful tale of love and hate, exile and belonging, loss of identity and return of faith. The film was released throughout Australia in 2002. It had enormous success at the box office running for six months in Sydney alone and became one of the three highest grossing Australian documentaries since 2000.

It is going into stomach of Badals. I say there is nothing wrong in setting an organisation and motivating sikhs to contiribute Daswandh. It should be religiouss so that people put more due to tax relief. You have to Plan Need money lots of money. If i have money i will purchase a barren island. Declare it as independent state of Khalsa and its best parchaar. What else is better Parchaar then Amritdhari sikhs participating in sports, I want to see Khalsa football teams, amrtidhari sikhs in Olympics and what not. Punjabi Lipi in windows. You can only dream. So it will do positive Parchaar. Raaj Bina Na Dharam Chale Hai | Dharam Bina Sab Khape maare Hain || Sorry for any spelling mistake.

Hi, I was shocked to see the web page stating how to convince sikhs to become muslim? http://www.islamawareness.net/Sikhism/convince.html What the hell is it? They are openly doing this on net now, teaching other muslims tectics to convert? They say to guru Granth Sahib as "The scripture of Sikhism is not any revelation from God but only the compositions of the Gurus as well as those of certain Muslim and Hindu mystics. For this reason, there is no meaning in talking about the authenticity of the book as a Divine Revelation. Because neither the book nor the authors claim it to have been revealed by God" what is this???????

Sat Sri Akal, I have been in SikhSangat for a while and want to share an important thing i noticed. The modes have done a remarkable job in keeping the site running and all sorts of work. I know how difficult it is. The only problem i have in SikhSangat is to close or terminating the topics without giving any clarrification based on Gurbani. Can anyone give a line from gurbani that stops a sikh from discussing any bani or any important issue. yet mods ban topics based on it. The only criteria to ban topics is "if it violates Gurbani", giving quotes from Guru Granth sahib jee the reason of banning. The problem is mods ban importants topics as meat, why they dont want sangat to discuss issues, or they fear something. The same problem with Dasam Granth, Ragmaala etc, you will amazed to know that it is still said as Bachiter natak in Guru Gobind Singh jee essays in Punjab. The only problem is that mods are just closing these topics without giving any line fron bani that states dont discuss this. Just think for a moment do any Guru Forbid sikh from discussing bani, The only aspect of bani is to do vichar in Sangat of that bani, and live according to it. Just from stoping sikhs from discussing Bani (Dasam Granth) you are making Guru proud. The problem is you dont take criticism, the point is to correct other people not to stop him from discussing. I think you are just too afraid and want to keep your so called secular or pleasing some image. The point is mods are just imposing there own beliefs , just dont discuss this that, Akal takht is occupied by a bunch of clowsn (Badalwale) who has no brain to solve our problems. see how he solved Chuttha Sauda, he is biggest traitor of sikh. he converted sikh party to punjabi party. The point is used your Brain and guidence from bani to choose what is right and wrong. There is no point in closing this topic, kindly provide what rule of Sikh sangat i have violated, so that this topic is closed. The point is that there should be free debate on Bani and other topics without any restriction. I think you are just curbing freedom of speech. I assume i am going to be banned, many sikhs have left sikhsangat already. Stop to appease anyone use your intelligence and take guidence from bani. Regards.

Hi, I was looking for difference of Sikhi and Hinduism, and on wikipedia found following lines from Dasam Granth. Kindly correct the meaning i need it. In case of correction kindly provide reference.

Sat Sri Akal, It is really an irony that sikhs being one of most bravest race, most generous and god loving are widely seen in India as people of low intelligence. I will say most of sikhs have been hurt in one way or another. Young kids going to schools and at noon everyone laughs at sikh kids, atleast in many private schools.I have seen kids showing disrespect for sikhi because of humilation faced. You can understand what is for young kids to be laughed at regularly without any fault, to be insulted. So what we can do? Cracking jokes at Sardars portraying them as only intrested in wrong stuf **** is common. I can say in all IT firms in India, in which my brother works many mails internal mails comprised of sardar jokes. There is no pride felt by kids it becomes burden for them, you cant tell them to recite name, as they are too young. We need to have some program to portray true meaning of sikhs. Sorry all stuff is that some college students made fun of my father cracking degratory jokes on him as he is sikh with long beard and i really got very sad. Just i can imagine what happens to others. The only thing needed is to give feeling of proudness of being a sikh to all sikhs. Please forgive me, this was pain in my heart,feels relieved after sharing my sadness.

Hi, I today recieved an online version of sri Guru Granth Sahib ji, i am in a difficult position not knowing whether it is good or not. On one hand i think it is good for spread of sikhi, but this online version just i dont have good feeling about this. Always i have an image of Guru Granth Sahib jee as having Prakash. Keeping online in folder and some people can keep in music and videos.Just sending in emails , just i dont feel something good. so please advice on this. Regards

Hi, This is story of a true sikh warrior who laid his life for sikhi. He was lef general in KLF. He give his life and what they get in return nothing. His mother is old and all parties pay him just Rs 500 till now. Dont you think it itself is giving false example to new generation. That they should not fight for religion as there is no sikh for there family. Regards
