  1. Gay marriage is legalized in California. How should Sikhs feel about this? I am confused. I feel happy for them that they are getting equal rights.After all, we as Sikhs have to see everyone equally. On the other hand, what if a gay couple wants to do Anand Karaj? It is not allowed in Sikhi.. Share your views P.S.. I don't want to offend anyone. If this post does not belong this forum, please advise so. Thank you
  2. Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ki Fateh "eh muslim priwaar har mahene ik war darbar sahib de darshan karan jroor aunda hai galbaat de dauran enha dasea k 1984 vich jdo ik sikh (nishan singh na dasea ena os sikh veer da) hindua to bachdea hoyea ena de ghar aa wadeaa ta ena ne apne ik put de sir te pag ban k jis de dhadi rakhi hoie c nu onha de havale kr dita te onha ne enha de samne agg jiode nu la diti .galbaat daoran eh sab futt futt k ro paye ate kendhe asi ethe allha da sukar krn aunde ha par asi apne dharm vich parpakk ha ate kehnde saanu etho di rohaaniat sanu khich leaodi hai." "This Muslim family come to Darbar Sahib every month for darshan. While talking to them, they told that in 1984, a sikh ( his name was Nishan Singh) running from Hindus came to their house for shelter. They tied turban to one of their son's head, who has beard, and gave him to the Hindu mob. Their son was burnt alive in front of their eyes. They started crying during this conversation. They said that they come to Darbar Sahib to thank Allah but they are devout Muslims. The roohaniat of Darbar Sahib brings them here" Before bashing other religions, please understand that TRUTH exists in every religion. At the end, God will not judge us based on our religion, but on our actions.Lets improve our actions and be what our Gurus want us to be. Consider all human race as one!!
  3. News link from punjab spectrum http://www.punjabspectrum.com/2013/06/12832 Local News Channel Coverage http://www.news10.net/video/2507199376001/1/Sikh-couple-kicked-out-of-theater-due-to-religious-item Link to Petition http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50846/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=11324
  4. Last Sunday, there was one at El sobrante Gurdwara, had police come over with shoes on and head uncovered... :-(
  5. Have faith in Waheguru Also, try those online career path tests to see what profession might be right for you and then you can go from there.... Here is link to one of them ( this is the one I had to take when I took college guidance class) http://www.careertest.net
  6. Yup... read it on Facebook.. Love the idea!! We are thankful to Kuljinder Sidhu who took an intiative to make a movie on Bhai Hawara and other Singhs and now he is thinking about this project.... I know it is going to be very hard but with Guru ang sang anything is possible
  7. United Sikhs took over this case and they have their own traceable petition. http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50846/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=11324
  8. Singh and kaur have started petition and they have been suggested to contact Sikh Coalition.. Few years back, kirpan law in California made it to governor but he did not sign it...We are still fighting for this There is one county where Sikhs are allowed to wear kirpan but not in one where this AMC is at... but bay area has a huge population of Sikhs and security guard was aware of who Sikhs are...
  9. Veerji, they did not go to theater to watch a dirty movie or something... there are many other genres like animated movies or action movies... They were having a day out after such a long time.. They are American born Amritdhari Sikhs who follow strict AKJ rehit..
  10. Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ki fateh I know this Gursikh couple who went to watch movie at AMC theatre in Emeryville, CA. While the Singh was waiting in line, he was racially profiled and pulled out by the security guards. He was the only one who was searched as he was wearing a Dumalla. His kirpan was not visible at that point. He was searched and his turban was patted down. They saw the kirpan and asked him to leave the theater. When he tried to give them reasonable explanation, the security personal did not listen and said ," I know about Sikhs". They had to leave and their evening was ruined :-( Now they have started this petition, please sign it https://www.change.org/petitions/amc-bay-street-16-theaters-in-emeryville-stop-banning-sikhs?utm_campaign=share_button_mobile&utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=share_petition United Sikhs traceable petition http://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50846/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=11324 Thank you
  11. Dharmi Veerji, what line is Waljinder Singh Veerji talking about?
  12. To keep all the kakars with you while you are taking keshi isnaan... I don't know if it mandatory but it is a good idea and you can also keep your kanga with the dastar this way...
  13. Start doing Sangat of Gursikhs, you will see the difference... Hang around like minded people.. start by volunteering at local Gurdwara Sahib.. you will make new friends
  14. 1. I think it would be disrespectful to listen to bani in sleeping position unless you have physical problem like paralysis.. When we listen or read bani, Guruji is present with us and listening to our bani... Lying down will make you fall asleep 2. Yes, Since Guruji is hazar nazar while you are listening or reading bani, you should do ardass to Guruji 3. Usually Amrit Vela which is after midnight and before sun rise.. This time is considered best as you can concentrate more on Waheguru.. It is time when almost everyone is asleep and there is minimum amount of noise...BUT if for some reason you cant do it at that time... try to do it AT LEAST before 9am 4. It depends on you... If you can concentrate fully while reciting in mind then you can do so... The important part is to focus on bani not how to recite it...
  15. Why is it that at teenage years you get all these weird ideas? I wanted to be a nun when I was 16... lol Anyways, you are at a age where you will be attracted to so many things which you might not like after you have passed your teenage... You have a lot to learn... This is definition of Sikh.. a leaner, a student.... Start by reading Nitnem Banis and understanding their meanings... This might help you So many years later, I am happy I chose to be amritdhari instead of a nun...lol
