Taksali bibian too , most new abilakhees from non sikh majority nationalities : European,USA , Canadian, South America, Africa, Japan, China too

really? did you

you said there were none , so a few is enough to shut down that argument . besides dastar wearing bibian are everywhere too just open your narrow eyes .

Kavishri jatha

Bibian of Baru Sahib doing Japji sahib di katha vichar Baru Sahib di Bibian doing Tanti Saaz recitation of Guru Granth Sahib ji (ongoing sewa): first canandian Navy Sikh woman dhadhi jatha

related changing sikhi:

That is because they think that Guru Gobind SIngh ji's hukhamnama only applies to Bibian but Guru Pita ji didn't differentiate between his children what applies to one applies to all.

No he was not , but he had kept his kesh from before he got engaged in Maharaj di hazoori, given up meat eggs fish etc and kept Guru ji in the centre of his life and also brought his children up as sikhs . Visited India and many dharmic asthaans so he is a sikh granted he is still getting to point of amrit di daat but Maharaj Kirpa kare.

enjoyable discussion of 'modern anand karajs' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byxR_kkYmOo

hahaha keep trying ... yes santokh can be instilled and sikh core values ...

In the west you may not have the choice because of cost of living so do not jump to false conclusions my mother worked and looked after her duties too as do millions across the world , the only things that changed is location of workplace compared to previous generations . An alpha female is not a home breaker she is a home maker because she has strong self-confidence and ability can bring that to her family life , some in-laws live to blame the daughter in law when the fault lies in their sons . My brothers don't live with my widowed Mother , they don't look after her why? because my mother was wise enough to recognise that they didn't want that responsibility, so she let it go. Her daughters and their husbands are the ones who ask after her and help her out in a practical way although they live elsewhere. The Punjabi model makes selfish men and the Western Model selfish women , the sikh model makes Selfless people . I have a Sikh Mother ...that is better than anything this Hindu commentator knows

Forget about what Preet said , the mann is kaal's playground until we get kirpa . Turn to Guru ji , do ardas and take gurwak (can do this by cyber means too) and Guru ji will give you advice on what is best to concentrate on right now. Stay in Chardikala

To be a Kaur in the modern world means you should have the backup skills and wherewithal to look after yourself whether or not you make a career , this will ensure that she will remain achint in the face of macho posturing of the husband or in-law pressure/bullying. It is our girls who are not educated enough who feel trapped and put up with spousal abuse because they are scared of facing the unknown. These days I have noticed a trend of golden goose syndrome the guy might be a hardly 10th pass but he wants a wife with a profession why ? so she becomes a work slave providing an income stream for him. This is on top of daaj demands. So again the Punjabi learns from the bad of others - well done, try learning something from sikhi instead. Your thinking also displays an element of backwards attitude to Kaurs ...there are so many who are positive contributors without paying ...maybe they take on ALL the families caretaking duties so their parents are free to work ...but of course in your eyes that wouldn't be worth anything ...

When I went to Singapore on Honeymoon the Gurdwara there had a big sign explaining that only amritdhari gursikhs would be allowed to marry by Anand Karaj mind you this is going back to '96 and committees may have changed this but it struck my Husband that he was so so lucky to be married Anand Karaj.

apparently Hundal jr is getting married ...in an interfaith ??? he's atheist so single faith marriage to a catholic according to tisarpanth's latest FB post...he is crowing that the church is welcoming him in, now I have close relations with people of that faith and when it came to the sacrement of marriage unless you have had the sacrements of Baptism and First Communium you cannot partake of the sacrement of Marriage or Funeral service ...same as Us . He claims that his fiancee's church is allowing him but I suspect that the old rules still stand in some form . OK they get around it by getting the non-catholic a dispensation from the priest (so can get a church refusing I guess) and then the catholic in the couple has to swear to remain catholic and any children born of the marriage will be Catholics and brought up fully catholic i.e. sacrements must be taken. http://rcdow.org.uk/att/files/m f l/marriage in catholic church basic guide (marriage care).pdf

Perhaps The sikh PA should put out a firm notice to those outside the faith to remind them Sikh internal affairs are a matter for SIKHs alone and that is the Khalsa Panth . maybe sharing this latest talk by Hundal's better bro as widely as possible would help those sleepwalking to wake up and those 'modern' sikhs to wise up.

This buddia doesn't understand that the voting for trimmed sikhs would not be possible even under the amendments because they are PATIT so there goes her gist of what a sehajdhari sikh is ... Only Waheguru knows if this will make a true chance for Khalsa to get the good guys in ... what right do the union government have who out of them is a rehitvaan gursikh?

In sikhi we are not meant to live off the earnings of our mothers, sisters, daughters ...this is an article written by a hindu lady with ulterior motive . Sure girls shouldn't be emptyheaded loafers but on the whole sikh women are not taught to behave in that way , they are expected to work hard at school, home and work if they go .The whole sikh philosophy is to do one's best effort and leave the rest to Waheguru ji. No , a sikh should think of developing sikh character first and foremost the rest will come with education and effort . In my own life I would earn and then buy things that would help in the household like new appliances because my Parents would get angry if I offered them money (now I understand but then I found it strange). Mostly I would be told to save it for myself ... after I was going to get married both my fiance and I paid for the whole thing and costs ourselves I did not want to burden my folks at all. When they looked after my eldest when I was working I would provide everything and also pay my Mother the going rate.

Bro look at her age, she needs her folks behind her not kalesh ...so what is the harm in sharing what she has learnt what she feels now , maybe Guru ji will do kirpa on them too ...

Bro grow up only the bani that Guru ji has accepted in line with Gurbani Gurumat is approved , why are you trying to undermine bharosa in a bhagat of Akal Purakh , did you not think perhaps it is your own lack of understanding that caused a false impression? Maya is described as a female also perhaps shabad is deeper than you took it and he is describing Maya's enticements through Moh, Kaam etc.which corrupt the individual's mind further Besides apart from repeating topics from a decade ago like some sly troll what can you do ? How about you go do some naam jap instead and save yourself and our valuable saas?

Bj bhrava edit your font unless you really are using a megaphone to speak to us , Thanks . Akal Purakh owns everything why should He care for such Maya when it is playing to his tune ? I don't know if you know this sakhi but here goes , this was in the Time of Guru Ram Das ji , He was at Harmandar Sahib in Amritsar when some Singhs came to him 'Maharaj a strange beautiful lady is standing outside requesting to see you. She will not enter unless you give her specific permission' Guru ji smiled and replied , 'I know who she is ,Go and tell her she cannot come in' The Singhs broke the news , this made her even more distressed and she pleaded again for them to talk to Guru ji on her behalf. They returned to Guru ji ' She will not go Guru ji , she is insisting she will stay at the gate until you give her permission to come in, and she will only come then' Guru ji told the pehredars 'tell her I will only allow her to come to me if she shows her true roop' The Singhs went back to convey the message , as soon as they delivered the message the young lady began crying pitifully. As her tears fell, she transformed into a hideous deformed old lady with a decrepit body and torn clothing , then she begged them to take her quickly to Guru ji's charan . Slowly and painfully she hobbled behind the pehredar Singhs until she caught sight of Guru Sahib , on seeing him she rushed and fell at his feet. 'Please Sache Patshahe save me ' Guru ji helped her up ' Beti tell these Singhs who you are' 'Patshah I am that unfortunate soul who is known as Maya , I used to be so beautiful, so enticing and whole but because this world has used me for so many bad deeds, hoarded me as money and jewels, and used me to commit sins against one another for so long , look at what I have become. Please help me ' Guru Ram Das ji told her , 'The only way you can be made pavitar is by using you for good deeds and to bring Gurbani to the world ,I can only give you entrance into darbar in the form of chardava for langar to feed the poor . For that good cause alone can you enter here' Maya wept tears of joy, 'after such a long time , I will be used in the right way to help, to serve , I am redeemed. tusi Dhan ho Guru Patshah ji Dhan ho'. So Maya is the Servant , and she is sworn to serve the Gurmukh ...to do Halemi raj in this jug

and live realising Karmi apo apni ke nehde ke door .... we can only work on our karams with kirpa of Guru ji

shut your misinformed face , if he was a threat only in feburary 1984 tell me so clever lady why were the Indian Army practising full invasion and destruction army exercises in 1982? even before he had gone anywhere near Harmandir Sahib . The full scale model of amritsar was built in Doom Valley in 1981 ...Indira Gandhi was a meglomaniac who hated the sikhs because they were the ONLY community to call her an election fraud to her face (see 1977 punjab protests). Hindu Genocides ? this was Alam's Black cats sent in to defame Sikhs ...

so did they actually do the wedding and if they did , who were the BSers on TV and Radio programmes?

just because one S stirrer is repeating the same ulti the other broadsheets and red tops have been for the whole whole week gone now you have finally awoken .... this has been discussed to death and you are not bringing anything to the table bar indignation ...any point? Truth is the committee is the root cause of this instead shooting people who have passed an opinion after the fact on the circus caused by the committee you want to attack journos as opposed to clearing out the atheistic committees who don't care about Guru Sahib's beadbhi?
