  1. Don't know about what caste he will be born in. But he will be Tyar Bar Tyar Khalsa Amritdhari Singh Soorma for sure. He will be a Khalsa, then he will become casteless

    he's supposed to be born in brahmin household and be a warrior? according to puranas I can't see it myself unless he is Gur Sikh/Khalsa.... the second coming of jesus is supposed to ditto copy of kalki warrior like behaviour on white horse too I found that interesting...

  2. Thanku wat does Nam Niranjan Neel Narain mean? Before I start any shabad a negative thought always comes in my mind, wat if it goes opposite n I get worse. Don't know y but it automatically happens like this. But on a good point read today on a site something written that said even sadhus saints from all religions never advised anybody to look towards birth calculations, including Hindu Muslim names and Guru Nanak Dev ji all said to only say Gods name. So that has lessened my worry a bit. But they do give a lot of vehm.

  3. Can u help me please because there`s this sikh boy in my class and he is constantly staring at me his name is Ishveir. To be honest I think he likes me but he never bullies and my dad said if boys bully you that means they like you.

    put him dead centre in the friend zone by calling him brother to his face and reminding him that you heard sikhs think of their peers as brothers and sisters ...let's see if you get a flicker if not then he's just staring without motive...

  4. Exactly! Funny how alex salmond has campaigned for this for a long time now, n not once has any of tue opposition, especially gordon brown (scottish himself), has ever felt the need 2 do a counter campaign. Yet as soon as the weeks close in, he suddenly starts a tour of scotland, pathetic! Also this will set a precedent for belgium, quebec, basque and catalans to press ahead with their seperation from their respective countries. People thought yugoslavia couldnt break up, and especially during the cold war, the soviet union could break, buy they all did, n hopefully fake nations like india/pakistan will also break.

    For a long time Alex has slowly and steadily built up a following while others were arrogant thinking there was no chance the the Scottish would be united , intelligent enough to weigh up the pros and cons for themselves and go for a break from southern control , but look at history ...it makes senses that they will go for it especially with the global warming mismanagement ...there will not be a lower part of England if the polar caps go.

  5. Irrespective of whatever happens, I respect Scottish People who have gone for this referendum, I respect British who have offered this right ...

    The British i.e. English have no choice ...that's why they are scared ...because if it is a yes then bye bye north sea gas and oil....

  6. Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh,

    I'm guessing you're in UK or US and have a stiff dastaar material ...wash in colour-friendly biological soap , rinse well , then put a little fabric conditioner in final rinse , wring out , shake it and dry smoothed out from a line/frame, when dry it will cooperate better and not give off too much lint.

  7. ive noticed many vegetarian Sikhs are out of shape an most of the Sikhs on a vegetarian diet that are out of shape tend to have a low protein high carb diet

    I think the gurdwaras need to change the system of langer and Sikhs need to catch up in terms of nutrition science

    in the Punjabi diet we destroy most of the vegetables we eat by over cooking them then throwing fatty butter in

    a lot of veggie dishes are just butter cause most the nutrition has bin destroyed to over cooking

    roti and bread we eat way more carbs then we should

    a healthy diet is high protein low carb

    sad thing is most Sikhs aren't educated on what vegetables to eat and the amount they should be eating to get a high level of protein

    a vegetarian has to eat far far far more then someone who eats meat to get the protein requirements for building muscle

    vegan athletes are always eating every hour their snacking on something to get that protein need met but benefits are is their muscles recover a lot faster then they did when just relying on meat for protein

    if the youth started getting the gurdwaras to change their langer to better healthy eating with vegetarian and fruit dishes and teaching people how to have a high protein low fat low carb diet from being a vegetarian would this have an impact in destroying the DIABITIES epidemic in the Sikh community and also help produce stronger healthier Sikhs and even more Sikh athletes

    if you took 100 random singhs you know and put them in a room how many of them would look like strong built cut athletes with a high muscle low fat build

    how many singhs would benefit if they changed their diets and would grow to be strong and built athletes with lean muscle and a build that clearly shows high muscle low fat body type

    indian diet is super healthy but the way Indians cook their food makes it one of the worst diets in the world

    THIS MAY EXPLAIN WHY SOUTH ASIA STRUGGLES SO BADLY AT ATHLETICS ESPECIALLY AT THE OLYMPICS ESPECIALLY WHEN INDIA ALONE HAS A BIGGER POPULATION THEN EUROPE AND ALL OF SOUTH ASIA HAS A BIGGER POPULATION THEN EUROPE AND SOUTH ASIA HAS A BIGGER POPULATION THEN LATIN AMERICA AND SOUTH ASIA HAS A BIGGER POPULATION THEN SUB SAHARA AFRICA YET THESE CONTINENTS CAN PRODUCE A SMALL COUNTRY OR A SINGLE ATHLETE TO KICK ALL OF SOUTH ASIA'S BUT AT ATHLETICS

    India does badly at sports not for lack of talent but lack of sports academies and funding

  8. generalisations about diet don't help... protein requirements are overstated in most body building circles ... Waheguru ji created such an intelligent vehicle for us to use in this life , it can create a lot of what it needs from other items in the diet ,

    I suggest that people eat too much sugars and fats in the form of mithai,sweets, juices, soda and biscuits fried items such as samosey pakordey, pattorey, puri, nimkian , muttardian. Maas and egg eaters also ingest extra calories in degraded protein. Our bodies are developed over the centuries to be super efficient energy storage and use systems. Most of the bibian are getting skewed hormones through out of control blood sugar due to over reliance on shop bought items also too much 'special once in a long while' type items as listed above .,

    Our native diet may have had ghee, makhan etc but it was grass/greens-fed so had loads of vitamin D and A and CLA which is important to keep one slim and healthy, yoghurt and lassi digestive health in a glass, saag I agree people over cook it it wilts in two minutes or less so if cooking from fresh cook the allan first then add palak stop cooking as soon it has wilted , if using other tougher greens cook them first then add palak, tardka cook seperate mix in and simmer to get flavours to mingle and always squeeze in a lemon worth of juice to help iron and mineral absorption.

    Best oils to do tardka coconut, saron, proper homemade organic grassfed ghee...never use olive for tardka it gets to toxicity at the temps we cook at , sunflower is not so great either generates loads of free radicals and toxins . virgin olive oil is good for dressing cold salads or veggies. We need to eat a lot more fresh RAW veg and fruits , less canned stuff ,the real deal instead.Atta should be ancient grain which has less starch to protein examples einkorn, kamut or spelt. I'm constantly being asked what I feed the kids (15 year olds 6 foot 1 and 2still growing) (, 6year so tall so fits in size 9 years , 17 year old 6 foot)

    variety is key ...and not getting hung up on kids not eating veg , you back down they will eat out of curiousity...mine regularly fight over the green veg steamed ...it not being enough .... weird really

  9. Feels awesome to see another singh or singhni, especially when your used to everybody staring at you. In america some people are still very aggressive toward turbans.

    I must admit I was so happy the first time another gursikh in Brasil , despite the many visits I had made previously to visit in-laws ...and he was so happy too (boys in tow with dastaars) I guess it's like a little feeling of 'home' whereever you are. My kids watch TV or go somewhere and it's 'there a singh , there's a singhni quick quick look' gotta love Guru ji's kirpa

  10. yup... no problems with delhi airport.. not every sikh is from punjab.. many live in delhi and surrounding states.

    European airports can be a nightmare ...I had to take down my dastaar travelling to Sardinia (italy) but no problems going to Roma , Berlin airport a bit of hassle not much, Amsterdam no probs... Hands on feel up of my dastar in Berlin, and to islands in Med . Best one was Brasil, Rio the black staff members were ready to find problems , take off kara, take off kirpan on neck chain , take off dastar we smiled and my hubby talked to the white supervisor who turned around and said no they are not taking anything off they are Sikhs ...and waved us through (whole family trip to see BILs wedding).

    Delhi and Amritsar very through checking of both myself and my daughter (1 and 4 at the time)

    Just use your head beforehand and remove additional unnecessary stuff , stay cool during and if they are overly zealous smile and be cooperative within OUR limits.

    IT IS IGNORANCE...so educate as you go, smile , explain and thank them when you are done

  11. This is the exact state of second gen sikh kids born in west they r aloof from situation in india and punjab yet they brazenly claim they r doing a lot for panth for them their source of info r stupid gurdwara committes who indulge in weekly dose of india and badal bashing and once in a forthnight bashing one another

    Rajinder veer ji ,

    if you are not helping then no words needed ....Hello friend I know what you are worried about just carry/wear a smaller travel kirpan and keep the full sized one in your checked in baggage if you are going via this airport otherwise they will confiscate at security and you won't get it back . I'll be going via there next Tuesday and Mum will go on Friday this week. Use your common sense when in doubt , make sure you pull up your sleeves so the kara can be seen and also don't put shastars on your dastaar for travel. Have a good trip

  12. Why u nri sikhs claim u r self as true sikhs u r second gen kids dont even know punjabi language why u always use shory fotms granth sahib as sggs ,wjkk wjkf u refrsin u r self from sriting full words and u complain indian sikhs dont respond u r hypocrites

    Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh

    Veer ji it is clear now for everyone that you are Indian , also not a Gursikh because no sabbar, nimrata apparent , Waheguru parak karega, tanoo fikar karen di koe laud nahin, kaun Khara kaun khota. Bus Nam japke apna jeevan safal karo , amrit chako , parivar vich sikhi di parchaar karo , baki Waheguru te chadd de.

    It is true Gursikhs are forgetting Guru Pita di aggeaah :- Ussi fateh nahin balonde, ek dooje de sewa khushi khushi nahin karede, bibian te bachey de mu fitkaardeh,, garib de haath nahin vatounda, Bibian nu maa bhaine nahin samajde, and worst of all WE forgot his advice 'don't ever trust people who swear on what they believe is holy that they will do the right thing, get the right thing done yourselves' that is why partition time we failed, that's why we failed during the seventies, eighties , nineties even now we trusted their false promises (angreez, Gandhi, Nehru, Badal) instead of making sure the thing was done right by our own hand.

  13. But I never Thought Going on Honeymoon is a Sikh Culture not a western Culture.. :D Just wondering Nvm Cough cough..

    I called it that but we did backpacking around New zealand that doesn't sound the same type of thing ...flying over glaciers, jumping down volcanic craters on scree runs, watching sperm whales, visiting maori villages, swimming hot springs , hiking up mountain valleys ...it was great saw ANCHOR dairies there right next to Gurudwara Sahib ...reported back to folks made my Mum's day cos that was the brand we used at home all through the years.

    My bestie was also amritdhari and her poor husband took her to the lake district for that special holiday ...she was back the next day in Gravesend ...I don't do holidays was her contention...I hope he got a refund ...thankfully they are still going strong.

  14. Look at the irony of the situation these <banned word filter activated> gals despise turbans but brazenly say they hold reverence for 10th master wasnt he a turbaned man so sikh people r themselves a problem for their religion some times even parents of girls say we r looking for a clean shaven man for our girl n

    just curious Bhaine ji ,

    since you seem 'fashionable' from your photo would you marry a dastar tying fully bearded guy ?

  15. You're right bhenji, but he doesn't want to upset his friend. If the guy can take a stand and say I won't come coz I am a Sikh, then more power to him! :D

    that's why I suggested a private commeration maybe go paintballing, windsurfing, rockclimbing, gocarting, even doing driving (took my boys and their mates for driving experience with 'young driver' program (I think silverstone runs one too) or sommat you know manly stuff :happy2:

  16. Call him up

    ਹੈਲੋ! ਹਾਂ ਜੀਤੇ, ਯਾਰ ਆ ਸਾਲੀ ਟੱਟੀਆਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਬੰਦ ਹੁੰਦੀਆਂ ਵੀਰੇ, ਢਿੱਡ ਲੀਰੋ ਲੀਰ ਕਰਤਾ ਤੇਰੇ ਦੋਸਤ ਦਾ, ਨਹੀਂ ਤੇ ਤੇਰੀ ਪਾਰਟੀ ਮੈਂ ਮਿਸ ਕਰਾਂ, ਕੱਦੇ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ !

    End of story!

    Man ,

    sach kithe ? Gursikh nu farz aa sach vich jindagi betauna ...speak your truth, trust your Guru and your friendship will be honoured by it

  17. Ok so am very low and upset due to illness. And doesn't seem to improve even thou I do simran. One of our relatives suggested I have my kundli looked at, which has made me give up more now. As says I can get worse. And although mentions three types , one related to my illness.

    Do these kundlis actually mean anything. On one hand it was right, and then I'm thinking there could be millions with same d of birth and time as me, so they all can't have same as me or same future.

    I always thought Kundlis have no place in Sikhi, but how can they give right info in regards to wats going on in ones life?

    Can simran change a persons kundli? I heard Gods name can if they wish, so am holding onto this concept. But then think wats th point if my kundli says this. Although another said something different few years ago. Don't know y even bothered to have it done. Any hope had is gone now. And y do Some Sikhs have them done, like me I guess I wanted some gud news, but instead got bad news from it.

    Are they true or not? Or nonsense?

    without nam you will get affected by maya , this includes the planets but remember Nam is above everything ...try reciting this shabad ' Nam Niranjan Neel Narain' from Guru ji it is very strong also listen/ do Benti Chaupi as many times as you can .
