  1. Dumalla. Wrap your kes in with keski, do a bunga so ur kes are kept in place and thers a solid base for your dastar and then finish it off with your second malmal. BOOM!
  2. Insh'Allah is not a 'muslim-only' term. Learn what it means he could be spanish, could be middle eastern or perhaps a jew or christian from the middle east or just someone who understands the word and uses it at His will.
  3. Jumping the gun a little? Theres no confirmation. Read th original post, its from a SMS someone received. Confirm it first, then jump to conclusions. Jeez.
  4. As an amritdhari, or kesdhari even, we stand as ambassadors for our nation. I personally would not enter pubs or such places because of that. I dont drink so what reason do i have going into a pub? I dont smoke so what reason would i have going into a cegar shop? I dont use prostitutes, what reason would i have going into a brothel or strip club? All three of those can be places to socialise but as an ambassador of my nation, I just wouldnt go to any of those places. Sarbans dani pita has given us his roop. When we take up that roop, theres a part of us we have to leave behind. We must remember the responsibility which comes with the image. People see a Singh going into a pub and they assume Singhs drink. He may be having an apple juice and people will assume his having whisky. He may be having water and people will say its vodka. People talk about people behind their backs anyways. Nothing you can do about that. "The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about." Oscar Wilde.
  5. Why are you telling me? I didnt ask. Like plenty other words have been banned, why aren't the racist terms banned? Simple.
  6. "Imagine if America was a dictatorship. You could let 1% of the people have all the nation's wealth. You could help your rich friends get richer by cutting their taxes. And bailing them out when they gamble and lose. You could ignore the needs of the poor for health care and education. Your media would appear free, but would secretly be controlled by one person and his family. You could wiretap phones. You could torture foreign prisoners. You could have rigged elections. You could lie about why you go to war. You could fill your prisons with one particular racial group, and no one would complain. You could use the media to scare the people into supporting policies that are against their interests." - Dictator Aladeen.
  7. Moderators are sleeping veerji. They ovz dont give 2 shits. Sent me a lengthy email explaining their stand against racism and how they're none bias blah blah. Clearly total bakwaas since this is like the hundreth post by hammertime with excessive use of the term he loves to use. Blatant anti-islamic/ anti-muslims comments all over the shot here. What exactly are we teaching our youth?! And none sikhs? And those muslims who may be seeking our Guru Sahibs guidence stroll on here to find that we're no different to their own. Well bravo
  8. Quite a decent post here creating awareness turns into a racist, anti-islamic, anti-muslim post. Mods seem to be sleeping. Typical.
  9. Wowzah! Good luck with those prices reminds me of punjabi kaprey shops...they see a foreigner and prices instantly double...robbing in broad daylight
  10. My arguement was never against you or your thinking. Totally agree with it. What I was arguing against is the belief that these paintings are depictions of Guru Sahib themself and therefore worthy of worship. Think you got the wrong end of the stick.
  11. How can you say they're pretty good and accurate? Accurate- I cant comment on since iv never had darshan but good? From an art perspective...I would disagree. Look at classical portraits of kings and queens, compare them, can you see the difference between good and bad art? You can tell the difference between the portraits because of the different characteristics or things shown in the paintings. Doesnt mean they're a true representation. How do we know that when you have darshan that the darshan are not what you want to see? Yes the proportions matter because the paintings are completely wrong! Look show one of those paintings to a professional and see what he has to say. Haha the last bit made me laugh. Ps. I am not commenting on the depictions but the paintings and the art itself. It has no true likeness. And from an art perspective, they're clearly by amateur painters. Pul chuk muaf ji. No intention of hurting anyones sentiments.
  12. Veerji I agree with that and very nicely said. But people do bow to these paintings and do the whole toof bati etc to them. In our Gurdwara Sahibs we have these paintings up in Darbar Sahibs so how can we condone these blind rituals? Why do we need a painting to help us focus as some have said when we have Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaaj sampuran satguru right in front of us?
  13. How do we know that the paintings we have look anything like our Guru Sahib? An artist creates a painting based on his/her likes/dislikes, precedent influences...etc and so its an impression unlike a photograph. So if picasso created a painting saying it was of Guru Sahib in his cubist or surrealist style, would we also respect that? Theres a few paintings that have been posted on here saying that the artist had actually painted Guru Sahib in person. The paints have no distinct features of a person. Yes theres ears and eyes and a nose and legs and feet and hands but there all out of proportion- so are we saying this is how our Guru Sahib was? If it was a photo- ok...its a genuine portrait but these are paintings! Most of them by amateur painters. Theres no likeness to reality.
  14. MOD: ONCE AGAIN YOUR ALLOWING RACIST TERMS TO BE USED. WHY IS P*KI NOT AN AUTO-BANNED WORD LIKE OTHERS?!
  15. india has many dog breeds. so many so that they've been categorised :wow: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Indian_politicians the most famous breed of dog however would defo be: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nehru%E2%80%93Gandhi_family
  16. and the Gurdwara sahibs in india? we have completely destroyed our heritage. we've concreted and tiled over our historic frescos. we've bulldozed many historic structures of great significance. we've marbled and bricked up every square inch including the trees and miraculously expect them to survive. we dont care about our history, our heritage and certainly dont care about our future. what we do care about is our 'korsi' and we will do anything to keep it. as long as we are gulaam, nothings going to change.
  17. the matrimonial programme. the poor camera work. when the cameras still running and the presenters are still there completely oblivious having their convos...lol kind of funny actually. when they just keep repeating the same stuff. when wollies phone in and leave their tv on and say hello like a gazillion times. the presenters just like apne tv de avaaz band karlo ji. n they still dont get the message. the lame adverts. sofa factory, claim today... forever seeing oldies with their dodgy habits and accents and their appauling english. rarely seeing well versed youth or programmes aimed at youth. and that punjabi alphabet programme with those cartoon kids skipping in the medows. arghh that song is so annoying!
