  1. How many hours do you sleep and did you find your body getting used to less hours sleep?
  2. So you think there is some doubt, that maybe our Gurus would want Sikhs to marry non-Sikhs in the Gurdwara?
  3. I disagree, your example makes it obvious your dreams are related to subconscious thoughts. Therefore, dreams have a meaning.
  4. A good summary can be found here: http://www.blogistan.co.uk/blog/mt.php/2018/01/10/review-house-of-saud-episode-1
  5. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-43042543 Scots Sikh Jagtar Singh Johal 'to be moved to Delhi jail' What would be the purpose of this? Are Delhi jails worse than Punjab jails?
  6. https://www.nhs.uk/news/cancer/ultra-processed-foods-linked-cancer/ I think most of us would not be surprised by this, but definitely a good reminder to avoid unnatural foods Ultra-processed foods linked to cancer Thursday February 15 2018 Examples include mass-produced breads and cakes, snacks and sweets, fizzy drinks, and ready meals. Researchers in France studied the diets of more than 100,000 people for 7 years. They found small increases in the overall rate of cancer and breast cancer after the menopause in those who had the highest proportion of ultra-processed food in their diet. But because of the wide range of foods included in the ultra-processed category, it's difficult to establish which specific foods might be responsible for the increased cancer risk, and why. The increased risk could be caused by eating more high-sugar, high-fat processed food.
  7. Looks like things don't change in the 'Land of the Free' http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/sikh-uber-driver-passenger-gunpoint_us_5a85e21ae4b004fc319027dc Sikh Uber Driver Claims Passenger Pulled Gun On Him, Said, 'I Hate Turban People' Gurjeet Singh says he is traumatized, the Sikh Coalition reports. By Carol Kuruvilla SIKH COALITION Gurjeet Singh, a Sikh religious leader from Illinois, claims he was assaulted while driving for Uber in January. A Sikh Uber driver claims he was held at gunpoint on the job by a male passenger who asked questions about his national origin and allegiance to America. Gurjeet Singh, a religious leader from northwestern Illinois, said the passenger put a gun to his head on a nighttime ride on Jan. 28 and stated, “I hate turban people; I hate beard people.” Singh wears a turban and a beard as signs of devotion to his Sikh faith. The Rock Island County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the alleged assault but has yet to make an arrest. In the meantime, the local Sikh community is troubled that the armed suspect remains free, according to the Sikh Coalition, a national advocacy organization that is representing Singh. “We do still remain concerned that no arrest has been made and the State’s Attorney’s Office has yet to file hate crime charges,” the Sikh Coalition’s legal director and Singh’s lawyer Amrith Kaur said in a statement. “Mr. Singh and the local Sikh community have the right to feel safe. The reality is that hate crimes are not only attacks on individuals; they affect the entire community. They make all of us less safe, and everybody should be outraged by this.” Singh came to the U.S. three years ago to serve the Sikh community in the Quad City area on the Mississippi River as a granthi, an individual who helps lead Sikh congregations through hymns and prayers. He’s a legal resident of the U.S., Kaur said. In late December, Singh, who has a wife and a toddler, started driving with Uber to supplement his income. SIKH COALITION Gurjeet Singh has lived in the U.S. for three years. He has a wife and a toddler. At 10:39 p.m. on Jan. 28, Singh reportedly picked up two passengers ― a male and a female ― next to a tavern in Moline, Illinois. According to the Sikh Coalition, the man started interrogating Singh about his origins, asking questions like, “Which country do you belong to?” and “Do you serve our country or do you serve your country?” Singh, who speaks limited English, was “confused and scared” by the questions. He explained that he was Sikh and that he serves both the U.S. and his home country of India, since his parents still live there. “The attacker’s behavior escalated more and more as Mr. Singh tried to inform him about his religion, about the tenets of Sikhism, why he wore a turban,” Kaur told HuffPost. “As that went on, the attacker became more and more incensed, to the point where he pulled out a gun.” The woman in the car then “forcibly removed” the male passenger from the vehicle, the coalition said. She then apologized for the male passenger’s behavior and told Mr. Singh to drop her at home and to avoid taking the same route back to eliminate another encounter with the man.
  8. That's terrible. I guess you are making the point that this man did well in the situation because he was trained in Martial arts?
  9. Could this be because a large minority (or even majority) of Doaba Sikhs have migrated abroad?n
  10. You are wrong. Just want to know what you learnt. I was thinking of watching it but seemed too long
  11. How does Sikhi in Malwa currently compare with in Doaba and Majha?
  12. Any posters here who are pharmacists or work in healthcare? Surely the government is wrongly encouraging pharmacists to take responsibilities they are not trained nor insured for. A sign the NHS is sinking? https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/feb/12/nhs-urges-parents-to-use-pharmacies-for-childrens-illnesses A health campaign is urging parents to treat their pharmacist as their first port of call for their children’s minor illnesses instead of visiting their GP or A&E. NHS England said there were 18m GP appointments and 2.1m visits to A&E for self-treatable conditions every year, at a cost of £850m to the health service. Millions of parents could get more convenient and timely expert advice by taking their concerns to their local pharmacist first, which would also ease pressure on GPs and emergency services, the campaign will say. NHS England said research showed that only 6% of parents with children under the age of five would consider seeking help about a minor health concern from a high street pharmacist in the first instance. This despite 79% of adults saying they were aware that pharmacists were qualified healthcare professionals who could give advice on most common illnesses. NHS England says about 95% of people live within walking distance of a community pharmacy, meaning they are an accessible and valuable first port of call for minor health concerns such as coughs, colds and teething troubles. The NHS is working with pharmacies to increase the range of patient services they provide, including asthma audits and flu vaccinations. Figures released from a pilot study last week showed that more than 1,200 patients who called NHS 111 over the winter had been seen by pharmacists instead of GPs or being sent to A&E. The six-month trial in the north-east of the country allows NHS 111 operators to refer appropriate non-emergency patients to community pharmacies during late-night, weekend and out-of-hours periods.
  13. Anyone that is actually using datan? thanks
  14. Anyone in Western countries using alternative methods to toothpaste to cleaning their teeth? 7 I have heard datan is much better but is it possible to obtain in UK?
  15. What I meant is we are just following 'modern science/medicines' advice. What are your source(s) about aluminium and 87% ineffective?

  17. I Would suggest anyone with type 2 diabetes look at Newcastle University's work. Low calorie diet can reverse it http://www.ncl.ac.uk/press/articles/archive/2017/09/type2diabetesisreversible/ The Counterbalance study published in 2016, demonstrated that Type 2 diabetes remains reversible for up to 10 years in most people, and also that the normal metabolism persists long term, as long as the person doesn’t regain the weight. http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/diabetes/reversal/#overview Our work has shown that type 2 diabetes is not inevitably progressive and life-long. By identifying the cause of the condition it has been possible to design appropriate management. We have demonstrated that in many people who have had type 2 diabetes for up to 10 years, major weight loss returns insulin secretion to normal.

  18. If the NHS is saying it is best for those who 'should' have it, then I guess so
