Yeah, in the attachment, the wording at bottom does not seem like gurbani. It sounds like (part of?) a poem written by some fakir. I think most would agree that even though it is not gurbani, it's meanings are very close to guru sahib's teachings.

Punjabi look nice :D
I am trying to install Ubuntu linux on my current Windows XP machine. I got stuck when it showed me all those disk partitions, couldn't figure out which disk I should install on because I names were not as they appear in Windows and even the capacity size of disks were different :umm:

^^ Good post by AkalPurakhDiFauj.
If people got the required amount of sleep, they wouldn't even need a cold shower to wake them up.

Right. Getting an education so that we could support ourselves and our families is maya :rolleyes:
Guru Sahib said every sikh should be kirti, must earn an honest living. If we go by what you have said above, then guru sahib threw every sikh deeper into maya rather than taking them out.

Only those should respond to this who have been in a similar situation. If you have not, you simply can NOT relate to this.

Banking system, in general is deeply deeply flawed. Countries need to move far far away from this plague

By Alister Doyle, Environment CorrespondentOSLO (Reuters) - The planet could face a freeze worse than an Ice Age starting in as little as 10,000 years, giving future societies a headache the opposite of coping with global warming, scientists said on Wednesday.
The researchers, based in Britain and Canada, said that now-vilified greenhouse gases might help in future to avert a chill that could smother much of Canada and the United States, Europe and Russia in permanent ice.
They said the study, based on records of tiny marine fossils and the earth's shifting orbit, did not mean the world should stop fighting warming, stoked by human emissions of heat-trapping gases from burning fossil fuels.
"We're saying: 'don't push the panic button'," said Thomas Crowley, an American scientist at Edinburgh University who shared authorship of the study in the journal Nature with a colleague at Toronto University.
"There's no excuse for saying 'we've got to keep pumping carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere," he told Reuters by telephone, adding that the cooling was projected to start in 10,000 to 100,000 years.
"Geologically it's tomorrow," he said. "But we have a lot of time to argue about the appropriate level of greenhouse gases."
The projected build-up of vast ice sheets across the Northern Hemisphere and over seas around Antarctica would also lower sea levels by perhaps 300 meters (980 ft) -- connecting Russia to Alaska by land.
FALLING, RISING
In the last Ice Age, sea levels fell about 130 meters and much of Russia escaped a big ice sheet. Scientists can build sea level records from fossils because ocean chemistry varies; salt, for instance, is more concentrated when there is less sea water.
"Presumably, future society could prevent this transition indefinitely with very modest adjustments to the atmospheric CO2 level," they wrote. Greenhouse gases are widely blamed as the main cause of current warming that may bring more heatwaves, droughts, food shortages and rising seas.
A shift to a bigger blanket of ice would mark the end of a period of warming that began 50 million years ago, when even Antarctica was almost ice-free.
The scientists said the recent swings between Ice Ages and warmer periods such as the present, over the past 900,000 years, were getting sharper. Models suggested that instability could herald a shift to a new, far colder and stable state.
A similar shift happened more than 34 million years ago when Antarctica was first covered by ice, the scientists said. A trigger could be a slight growth of polar ice sheets, with ice and snow reflecting more of the sun's heat back into space. That could accelerate a cooling.
"Historians of science hate to say 'this is a special time'," Crowley said.
"But when you go through the models, each step seems reasonable and you get to an astonishing conclusion that we are right at the end of a 50-million-year evolution."
Modern human societies might never have developed if such a freeze had happened slightly earlier. "Anatomically modern humans evolved only 150,000 years ago," he said.
Crowley said more tests of the projections were needed.
"It might not come for tens of thousands of years," he said. "I'm sure some headline writers will want to say 'CO2 good for the atmosphere', or 'CO2 is good for us'. That's not the case."

Effort is in your hand, sanjog is not. Do the effort, but do not get disappointed if things do not workout the way you had planned.
To not make an effort(with anything) is like saying there is roti sitting in front of me, but I will not make an effort to eat it because if it is in my karma roti will automatically be fed to me.

And posting about this on a forum that they might not read is helping how? :rolleyes:

In another decade or two, Sikh will HAVE TO marry out of race, at least in Punjab, thanks to high rate of female infanticide.

Guru mantra can be practiced by a non-sikh.Infact, many sindhis do this.There is no strict prescription, that you should elaborate, that it is only for sikhs.

How would u know gurmantr if you havent taken amrit..as only the panj can give u gurmantr...
As per Bhai Gurdass Jee, "waheguru gurmantr hai..."

mard ka chela = soorma is what the punjabi translation is saying

They are both a form of meditation. Meditation in Sikhi = singing/saying praises of waheguru

That phrase is in literal translations only. If you read punjabi translations "disciple of man" is never mentioned.
