exactly they consider the head of their church God and they have a council of elders (patriarchs) to make decisions and issue letters such as the one to the Pope telling him to renounce his blasphemy and to return to the apostolic teachings . http://orthodoxinfo.com/ecumenism/epistle-to-pope-francis.pdf

bhen ji what was the subject matter of your post?

Should we use Graffiti to spread Awareness ?
jkvlondon replied to singhbj singh's topic in GUPT FORUM
problem is the medium Graffiti is temporary and often overwritten/drawn , It makes more sense to have dynamic sewa in locales to get the buzz about sikhi going instead , that way Guru ji is appreciated firstly for creating us . -
Emotional journey of an ex-army Black American into Sikhi

I don't know if they talked fine to her judging by the slurs and open hostility she received , but yes they talked to her . -
up your leafy green sabjis and oranges , supplement with mineral complex including iron and vitamin B complex ... it will help sounds like iron deficiency . Also using organic virgin cold pressed coconut oil with some peppermint essential oil and rosemary essential oils added on the scalp will nourish and encourage fresh growth

So your premise is unless a person is sikh from the get go until last breath he/she is not a sikh proper , may I ask why someone's origin has an effect on their end ? Fact is he is his own man there is nothing to stop him from shaving or going and getting a haircut why do you presume that anyone has a control over another ? I have seen a few people fall hard out of rehit despite being amritdhari/sarblohi etc does that mean it has something to do with the bibi who still was rehitvaan ? What would you suggest in that case her to abandon her husband or stick by his side and help him back ? Life events meant I needed to do pesh (operation) so I have been waiting for him ... I don't consider myself in amritdhari status but we both are sikhs .

ever heard of books, videos ...reading asking... yes we did have an anand karaj and we kept our word Guru ji is the central support of our life.

you assume much and I don't dance let alone know what a lambada looks like... er my kids are amritdhari except the little one she needs to choose for herself , but all signs are she is getting there. They are learning Punjabi My husband eats as we all do no meat, fish , eggs and has done for over 21 years , doesn't cut his kesh , he wears dardhi prakash, has his kesh in a joorda , only goes to Gurdwara to pray , has done all the rites of passage by sikhi for our life together and our kids , even preparing my Father for Antim Sanskar so you believe what you want . He is a sikh but is not at the point of amrit because of his parents interference/emotional blackmail which Guru kirpa is lessening as the truth of their natures is coming out .I am waiting for him .

this is also why women were put in parchaariks roles as their komalta and emotional intelligence would help them get the message past people's hardheadedness with prem not confrontation.

because it says in rehit maryada to never curse at a women (muh phitkarna) or to raise a hand to her, to treat her with utmost satkar does that mean you as a SIKH PRIVILEGED FEMALE use it as a platform to make up stuff to pour hatred and scorn onto your brothers ??? Please come off your abrahamic influenced paranoia cloud and live in the real world : has a sikh man said to your face anything other than they believe the panj should be male , for instance, you cannot have amrit, you cannot read Gurbani/take Guru Vaak, go Gurdwara, do sewa, do prakash/sukasan of Guru ji , sing kirtan , learn gurmukhi, do santhiya, learn gatka, or any of the many many different aspects of sewa ?

Emotional journey of an ex-army Black American into Sikhi
jkvlondon replied to singhbj singh's topic in WHAT'S HAPPENING?
Bro , you need to reattach to Guru ji because something got lost in translation... Guru ji says ALL come from the ONE , the ONE creates the HUKHAM and creation bends to it . These people you are so scatching on actually went through the fire to reach Guru ji's charan , she went through physical and sexual abuse thus left home instead of taking the coward's way out . Even though she went through it from SIKHs she never lost her connection with her Guru in her heart. It was 'sikhs' who destroyed her happiness, innocence and security and they did not try to support her in all those years before she met her husband. So I can understand her position , and she didn't just forget her Guru in worldly love , Guru ji gave her someone who could support through the pain of her past and get her to back to the path , they both had sanjog to become the Guru 's again . your analysis is tainted with lack of faith , understanding and truth. -
your point was lost in your eagerness to score a win in your argument ...If you really believe you are ONE then do you need to be upset about who goes first ? You disrespected sikhi by attaching manmat soch to such a pavitar ceremony and really should have stopped well before . Did I say women are ONLY meant to produce children ? I didn't even say that they have to give birth , you can nurture Gursikhi in your life partner , in your friends, family members, even general society . If you have no spirituality, no jeevan, no karni how on Earth are you going to do that ? Do you not believe that our packed lives are not already blessed and complete with the jewel of Gursikhi ? I don't think I need to be in charge of anything to be complete ... I refuse to put down others to elevate myself this is not a sikh attitude

sis honestly you should have lost your krodh a long time back it achieves nothing . Your saroop doesn't change beyond looking a part of the khalsa panth , your deh doesn't change but your hirdey should transform immediately to become komal for the cultivating of naam beej . If others choose to show their stupidity by disrespecting their SIngh by equating him to a horse controlled by reins instead seeing him as their daily sangat and closest friend on the path after Guru ji , we really need to show them that they are becoming what they don't like vile suppressors of others on the path. Sikh women should be self-assured by the knowledge that they have been entrusted with the most precious sewa , nurturing,supporting and getting gursikhs ready . One doesn't arrive at the sanchar without preparation , and that is where a Singhni importance is , like Sheikh Farid's mother nurtured his bhagti we have that immense role . Entrance to the path is a one time deal , but travelling and growing is a constant lifelong thing .

it was the number that were initiated on that day according to more than one retelling I read including mughal spy account who became Ajmer Singh , I'm sure the ikatt was bigger but I didn't want to put down something I couldn't be sure of .
-
is parchaar of gursikhi equivalent to evangelising ? if yes in your mind then the answer would be yes because that is the true langar for the planet :naam
-
err Guru ji forgot or perhaps others didn't choose to give weight to the command that all sikhs who wanted charan di pahul would now have to take Khande di pahul? Guru Pita is abhul so it must be the latter.
-
that last thing you mentioned is an attitude of the goray to slow down sikhi parchaar - the infamous jedi mind trick Bhai Jugraj Singh mentioned . Just look at the 200 plus year period of sikh history prior to Guru Gobind Singh ji joti jot
-
so did you have kirpan di amrit then bhen ji because that is dal's purataan maryada?
-
not arguing for female panj but loss of the harsh accusations which smacks of prejudice and diminishment of sikh females' value and level of faith : SIKH: no woman gave her head in 1699 so they have less faith in Guru ji MUSLIM: women cannot do ibidadat the same as a man per month so is defective in faith
-
Amrit is made the same ,with the same Khanda , the same sarbloh baata, with same banian , with the same blessings of Guru ji's nadar There IS ONLY ONE AMRIT , ONE NAAM since when did Guru ji's blessing become wrong or right dependent on the people hosting the sanchar?? We need to spread the love we have received from Guru Sahib and our elders on the Path We need to remind apne that marriage is meant to be for this life time and to be slow to wed after making sure that qualities and expectations of life are matched closely, and have counsellors preferably male and female versed in gurmat to help couples when they get stuck ... no matter what stage they are in life (so many older couples are struggling but would balk at airing dirty linen to goray)
-
bro ,itihassic records say that the crowds at Anandpur were over 35,000 and Dal historians say there were not many women present , would it not be harsh to condemn women on the basis that they were not 5 out 35,000 ? They are not any less Children of Guru Pita ji and often in our history been the sole carers and makers of mahaan gursikhs e.g. Bhai Taru Singh ji bros may consider being less condemning and more encouraging of your lost sisters ...return the favour

couldn't this be a simple case of adjustment e.g. someone reads extra bani the other wears a dastar even the women don't have to now ...and they carry on progressing . I am surprised that divorces have happened due to such small differences , but then again they are surrounded by narcisstic special snowflake attitudes in the general population Mum and Dad had amrit with us at an AKJ rehnsabhai because it was the closest to us and we gained sangat of Akj people, DDT, independents we never got into the politics just paid attention to the real deal Gurbani , simran and sewa and that's I think it should be . I put a dastar on , but my sisters who just wear a chunni have my love and respect too there is no difference . The only thing that bothers me is the pretentiousness that the youth have and the increasing intolerance . Maybe it's a recent thing , maybe hate speech such as Dhumma did against Ranjit Singh (and other jathey) is something that is going on behind the scenes I'm not sure but it really is saddening after seeing the true love for each other that vadde Singhs had and have for each other during the seventies and eighties .

rom the hair pores i.e. all the hair on the skin

clean and hairless ? see how even you are using their language , kesh are not dirty if you bathe regularly . realise how those adverts seep into your subconcious so that we inadvertently use similar language ourselves. the way I am handling it with little Isher Kaur is explaining to her the jobs that her rom do for her, how it's part of her and she is lovely as Waheguru ji made her.

i think so they have their own script , language (nihang boli , gurmukhi/old panjabi), festivals seperate from punjabi culture ones, customs for the main landmarks in life , sense of ethics, philosophy of life sangeet schools, instruments etc etc
