  5. what kind of ques. is that? all the proof u need is present? shree guru granth sahib jee historical gurudwaras all over india holy scriptures i seriously think u have 2 do sum research find out about sikhism n our origin, it will do u sum good! god bless u !!! n gud luck !!!! u need it!!!
  6. In my point of view I think that sikhs shud n't go to places as such , as already mentioned people that you mix with, meet and u r friends have an effect on your decisions and according to them what may be right, might be wrong. They can influence u to make decisions that u might regret to l8er in life. If instead of going to the gurudwara, u go to clubs and bars what makes u different to non-amritdharis, may be u wont smoke/drink 2day but then 1day they might talk you into it!!! 4get that ur mind can change ur way of thinking can change n u as well might start 2 drink smoke etc. !!!!

  11. :TH: sachkhand sri huzoor sahib is a definate must see! evry gursikh shud visit it at least once in their life! there are also other local gurudwaras in that area e.g. nanak jheera sahib.
  12. waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh all penji's and bhaji's I went to sachkand sri hazoor sahib last year and as far as this discussion on tilak goes - after the arti , they did do tilak on the sangat. Which means that there is nothing against wearing a tilak, in sikhism if guru ji did not want it happening (as evry1 knows guru ji is present there) it would have been stopped!
  13. shows how clever i am - got all them wrong!!!!!!!
  14. cooool ur decidin 2 go! i went last summer in july 4 a month it was a gr8 experience. loved every bit! we went 4 a yatra - to hemkunt sahib the journey was sooo coool! that took 2 weeks and the weather in that area was ok but at the top it was really cold, i considered my self real lucky to get darshan of such beautiful place. 4 the rest of the holiday i stayed at pind, thats where (as evry1 has already wrote) da mosquitos, heat and lizards come in. alls good though. follow the advice that parwinder bha ji gave and you'll be okay! trust me its gr8!!!!!!! :TH:

  18. The Source Of Silver Foil In Sweets -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FROM TARANGA MAGAZINE USA, Aug 23 (VNN) - A couple of years ago, Indian Airlines, the domestic air-carrier of India had issued instructions to its suppliers to supply sweet without silverfoil called VARAKH. Do you know why? Silver is widely used for various purposes in the market today. Silver is considered precious and its utility is enormous. The reason behind this is that silver reflects back 95% of the light energy that falls on it. The silver foils used for edible purposes is called VARAKH So what's so special about VARAKH? This is what I would like to bring to your notice. If you keenly observe this VARAKH under a microscope don be perturbed if you happen to see traces of blood, stools and saliva of a cattle or ox. VARAKH is a silver foil and we have no second questions on this, but to prepare this VARAKH important parts of the CATTLE/OX is made use of. Intestines of Cattle/OX are obtained from the slaughterhouse. This is obtained after butchering to death the cattle/ox for beef and the part, which cannot be consumed: the intestines are pulled out of the animal and handed over to the manufacturers of VARAKH. Before handing over the intestines, they are washed in the slaughterhouse to get rid of the blood and other remains on these intestines in the limited facility that is present in the slaughterhouse. We are not sure how neatly this job is carried out. Intestines are cut into small pieces and then are bound together as pages in a notebook. A silver block is placed in the middle of these bound intestines, and the whole thing is placed in a leather bag and sealed. Experts, who know how to make VARAKH, pound the bag with wooden sticks, till the entire bag flattens out. The silver block would by this time be turned into silver foil. This Silver foil would now be separated from the intestine pack and will be placed on paper. This is VARAKH, which reaches the market ready for use. Even staunch vegetarians, who shy away from egg, unknowingly consume this as a part of sweet. Some unknowingly consume this because of the additional taste that VARAKH provides. Now the question is "Why the intestines of the cattle/ox? Why not something else?" The reason behind using the intestines of the cattle/ox for preparing the VARAKH is because of the elasticity of the intestines. They do not get cut even after a severe pounding. This aspect is brought out in the magazine "Beauty without cruelty" and the Television show of Maneka Gandhi, "Heads and Tails". In India, on an average an estimate indicates that 2,75,000 kilos of "VARAKH" is consumed. Can you estimate how many cattle/ox are sacrificed for just a bit of taste? If you are surprised as I am, after reading this article please inform as many as possible so as to ensure that we unknowingly don't consume beef. I would like to thank the authors of this article in Taranga, a weekly magazine in Kannada, for enlightening us. Authors: Nafiza Joseph and Shailaja N Raj. My friend was reading this article when i came across it and thought that many people are unknown to this fact, and therefore eat varakh. if we as sikhs do not eat meat why should we eat substances which are obtained from such procedures? mithai is even presented at the gurudwara with varakh on as well! mainly because people are unaware of the facts. To every one that reads this article - spread the word!
