  1. I would stick to organic milk from grass fed cows if I drank it . The problems with soy is if it is soyprotein isolate it behaves differently to edamame, tofu and other fermented soy products. http://freefromharm.org/health-nutrition/vegan-doctor-addresses-soy-myths-and-misinformation/
  2. SIngh ji in the olden days when we didn't have laws to spilt inheirtances equally amongst the siblings , the girls were given their share in the form of gold and presents which she took to her in-laws to start her own household , even sagaan given was suppossed to seed money for the couple .That was in the days when a girl was supposed to be acceptable in the clothes she stood in and people actually honoured that sentiment .But these days what was originally egalatarian has become big business for the guy's side they try to emotionally blackmail the girl's family into giving larger and more expensive things until it has got to the point where the birth of a girl is seen as a curse , immediate finanacial catastrophe. That is why it is now female foeticide is rampant in Punjab . Now legally in India and Abroad girls get their fair share so there is no need for dowry and all this showy present giving .
  3. should I have said Bibi then , because she is a bazurg of mine I thought mata would be respectful that's all ...
  4. Mata Sada Kaur was a general and wanted stability for her Punjab and saw the marriage of her daughter to Ranjit as the best way to combine misls and armies to achieve that. the Constant fighting between misls was leaving Punjab vulnerable. All examples you gave outside of this was golddigging behaviour and yes it happens but it shouldn't be our mentality , we have our own two arms and legs to do our own work we do our best and the rest we leave to Waheguru ji.
  5. others having that attitude which is anti-sikh in the utmost sense is one thing but then taking that attitude and acting as if there's nothing wrong in it and proposing it to another Gursikh as a valid option for financing oneself for a business start-up is repugnant . No gursikh should act like this as this is against Guru ji's updesh . Just because you marry someone it doesn't give you rights to their parent's wallet or property .
  6. he was saying to do that to get money out of the in-laws to finance the start-up ...totally shameless then went on to say marry someone who's qualified in catering to be your free chef . what can one say about the totally selfish user and abuser attitude he is trying to encourage ? SMH
  7. problem with such businesses is the need for skilled staff which means relying on others(wage bill from get go) and the spoilage issues with perishable stock . You could try property flipping , if you are savvy you can make good returns on your projects and get out when the circumstances are as favourable
  8. the ones who have may have said it in Punjabi , on other shores , the courage comes from accepting how to be a son or daughter of Guru ji and trusting in His apaar kirpa and piare. Guru ji tells how to be 'jo har ka piara, so sabhna ka piara' aim for Guru ji's love and you capture the world's heart . I was thinking on this subject day before yesterday as I was waiting for sleep, about how we need to support and become the kind of gursikhs we need in our Panth , no one else will do it for us we all have to strive and share the load of parchaar/sewa/knowledge that our rattans such as the Basics of Sikhi team, SAS, SWAT, Khalsa Aid, SIkh Coalition etc etc have been shouldering , it is in the nature of life that people come and go and our rattans are the same . I appreciate veer ji so much as he risked his family's livelihood to serve his Guru ji and has kickstarted and organised the important Sikh PA group, Tera Panth Vasse group and many, many worldwide mini parchaar teams .
  9. behaviour until one defeats the mind is driven from ego so yes it's maya driven ego responses , the atma is above it all remote because it operates on a different level.
  10. I answered your anti-sikh advice , and you showed your own low thinking ....Yes if my Guru ji says earn your own bread with your own kirt di kamai , explain where he differentiates between his children based on sex . Yes there is no honour in sitting back and ripping off a girl . Tell me,why if I say it straight that you are picking up bipran ki reet by thinking and suggesting such behaviour as a funding option you went straight to who I married as a fault ? Now you are trying to further insult by implying I am not a faithful wife (above) . I think you need to rethink you words and also go back and see just how far you have fallen from the standards Guru ji gave you. As for OP , he had said he has funds he just wanted ideas for startups . OP Veer ji tried looking on YT there's a channel called minority mind it's very good both on entrepreneurship and business acumen
  11. Guru ji institute of married life is not for extorting money from the girl's parents otherwise why would Guru Sahib ji tell his sikhs that the bridegroom's party should be as small as possible and to the Girl's parents preference and not to pressurise or endebt them ? For a guy's parents to sell their son shows their low thought pattern and lack of sikh sanskars. Is the boy's mouth taped up can he not tell them what is wrong ? Sikhi isn't about races , find a place where Guru ji said anything that only INdians could be sikhs ? Neither he nor I put any demand on my parents or his parents we earned our money to spend , something that most boys don't do , often I've seen guys who have zero paise, zero prospects , zero sanskars looking for brides : why? because they think like you: we can extort paise from the girl's folks . Didn't the girl's parents educate their daughter, ensure she has sanskars, she has a job or profession? yes of course they do because the guys expect it and they want their daughter to be capable. The boy's folks make their daughter-in-law into a wage slave and still make demands on top of this , it is shameful behaviour which Sant ji did not tolerate for Hindu daughter what do you think he would say for sikh bibian ?
  12. it wasn't a subject about differenes in atma that would be pointless as one jot is much the same as another , but about human behaviour .
  13. Spreadsheet of worldwide programs : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15mJPkin99xitu6TNPMMWoAfgg9KqlCMbyIeACAV36U0/edit#gid=0
  14. we can also take part in the Chaupai sahib jaap submit online here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdA_bR7_T1rnIDWCLAKgaicj_O_XHf0vn9f9x4EHxRVxC3ETg/viewform
  15. sounds like my bro and his punjabi missus... My hubby works with loads of the second type and they are forever making out that they have it tough at home then overcompensate at work with leery behaviour and sexist jokes , they are very resentful of anything they have to do any family stuff, and make endless schemes to get out of it to party with the office dudes. My husband just lets me know he has a something on and I'm cool (I'm not mad ...I don't want a Drama Queen in my living room ) 'that's fine , have fun' he has no fuel to complain. win-win Drama Queens are just mummy boys who are triggered by life
  16. they have the same problems as Uk http://www.nbcnews.com/news/other/nearly-400-children-rescued-348-adults-arrested-canadian-child-pornography-f2D11599561
  17. 'just being practical' tempted to swear at you but I'll choose your F'd up bipran ki reet ... you aint worth jack if you can't get your own capital together by your kirt di kamai , in fact I and the rest of the world would hand you bangles
  18. yeah that's why they come home and do it to their long-suffering missus instead worst will happen at work with mates is they will rip the S out of him, and hopefully he will relent if he doesn't want a repeat. I know my Hubby's cycle for restlessness: every four years he'll suddenly get itchy feet and despondent about life (without cause) , then there's the road rage and general peevishness after a tough week , That's when the mikey-taking skills, and gopi chand jasoos about work situ comes in handy ... Fact is we aren't so different I know loads of guys who like to be drama queens at home I suspect it's just displacement
  19. it's still in front of Guru ji , just not in front of sangat's view of Guru ji , if we submit our chardva then we can do our benti and pranam without duniya's filth in our attention or hand, I mean if we can put langar chardva to one side why not the money , Guru ji jaani jaan aa ...so those who complain put money for dikiva not sharda.
  20. really you said this ? and you call yourself a sikh ? when Guru Gobind SIngh ji said no sikh of his would take daaj or sell their daughter ...for shame
  21. what about the fact that most money is handled by tobacco users and drug users at some point are we going to literally launder money to make it sucha ? My contention is golak should be removed from in front of guru ji and placed at the back of the hall so that we do not figuratively and literally place Maya in front of Guru ji
  22. Maybe we should show our appreciation by taking on more khoj of bani, santhiya, memorisation of more Gurbani, learn to sing a shabad you know stuff we should be doing and sharing with others and encouraging them too.
  23. if they think they need to protest this because of the historical cartridge issue in India , difference was some people put cartridges to lips/touched mouth/face whilst handling using same. Unless they propose to lick the notes it shouldn't be a major issue , lokkan nu akkal nu hath marna chahida before doing silly petitions like this.
