Actually, Jaspaul Singh, it would be amazing if you could put that samagam on osy.com. Especially Japman Singh's keertan. I heard he does amazing asa di vaar too! Let me know if you plan to put it on the site.

Waheguro Ji Ka Khalsa || Waheguro Ji Ki Fateh Sangat Ji I need to somehow get a hold of these following tracks. It's from the last Ottawa Samagam, in 2005, I think it was around November. I had a cd given to me, but I left it in New York. The tracks: 1)Vadh Sukh Rainiriea - Pritpal Kaur :lol: 2)Mein Gareeb Sach Teakh Tu - Nishi Kaur 3)and the track by Japman Singh Maybe Jaspaul Singh can just post that samagam on www.ontariosikhyouth.ca because it was amazing. Hope someone can help me this this one - Jap Naam

LOL, "GROUND BREAKING JOURNALIST" that's the funniest thing i've ever read about kimmy. for those who don't know who this kimmy bolan is: someone who is anti Sikhi in every way. short, white and fat. and someone who has to go back to journalism school. gosh, i wish i could just shake hands with her - Jap Naam ps. im usually not this mean, but i had to make this an exception

This is by far one of the best posts i've ever read. Just shows how far behind i am in Sikh history. i'm truly amazed at your response ms514.

Pyarey ji, i have also noticed that Jap Ji Sahib doesn't have a raag. i don't think there is anything wrong with still singing Jap Ji sahib. Gurbani doesn't necessarily have to be sung in raag. Most of Guru Gobind Singh Ji's bani is not written in raag, but doesn't mean we can't sing it. The first bani and the last bani (Jap Ji Sahib and Raag Maalaa) both don't have a raag...that's very interesting. During saadh sangat samagams, they sing most of the nitnem (which is amazing)...you can maybe download some of the nitnem from www.gurmatstudies.com or ontariosikhyouth.com hope that helps. -Jap Naam

my question (more of a benti), " Mere Pyarey Sahib Ji, may i forever be Your slave?"

thanks for the clarification Singh.

hmmm, that does look like a very old piece of clothing. but, why would Guru Nanak Dev Ji piarey wear a chola with paintings of women on it?? just curious.

lol, that's a funny link!

Respect to your opinion. Unfortunately, this 'confession' was forced. The mistakes that CSIS made by destroying evidence was a HUGE mistake, and the justice system never acknowledged that. It was forced because both CSIS and the RCMP made major mistakes, and to cover that, they decided to again, blame someone else. A key witness that was ready to testify on behalf of the third suspect when he was first sentenced in 1991 was not brought into court because 'they' needed someone to blame. The witness: a shop clerk that sold items to that man who bought the parts for the explosives. In her statements she clearly states that it was not the third suspect, that in fact, it was two monai. The third man is in jail based on the fact that he bought the materials! How is this justice? I would say that is contradiction. And in The Agreed Statement of Facts which was read in court it clearly states that the third suspect did not make the explosive's. So he never confessed on making the explosives. Agreed that Canada's justice system may be amongst the best in the world. I used to believe that too. But why hide/destroy/deny evidence that would prove a man's innocence. It's true, and truth can be hard to believe. -Naap Jaap

I assume the country with a proper justice system you are talking about is Canada, (that's were I'm from). Just to let you know, infact, Canada has a very unjust justice system, the third suspect in the air india case has been jail based on evidence that doesn't even prove he was involved. Key evidence that proves his innocence was not presented in court and some was even destroyed. So Canada doesn't have a very 'proper' justice system. However, I agree with you, you can't just lock someone up for life because someone needs to be blamed. But it's happend already, not in india, but right here in canada -Naam Jaap

grandcannon, it's good to know that there are people who are taking out time to read Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. I haven't read Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji myself yet, so that was inspiring to read. however, to find something intersting you have to understand it. you can't expect to understand the bani in just one read. Gurbani is very deep. you have to sometimes read beyond the lines and things don't always seem to be what they are. next time, read the meaning of each line (in punjabi or english) because when you understand something, it's way more intersting. to find Gurbani helpful, it all depends on what you need help on. Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is the only resource for Sikhs. the answers are all there. if you didn't find the answers, maybe you should ask someone that has studied Gurbani like a granthi or a katha vachik. i'm sure that will help you. also, there are MANY resources out there were you can learn about how Sikhism came about - books, courses, internet, sakhi's, history. it definetly isn't a "sect", although hinduism and islam were, in there own way, a reason why Sikhism was born. -Naam Jaap

Thank you simmal tree. Its amazing at how the youth in today's time has so much passion towards Sikhi and Seva. May Guru Nanak bless them all.
