Thanks for trying

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh We need the Panj Kakaar. It makes us stand out. If you look at every the leader of other religions e.g. Jesus and Hindu Dev's, they all had long hair. It helps in spirituality and does has power. The Gursikhs are enough evidence for this. look at Bhai Taru Singh Ji he had his whole scalp scarped off to remove his Kesh. Also if you read the story of Samson from the Hebrew Bible, he had his hair cut and he lost all his power. We should learn MMA or other martial arts, it will teach us to fight with out body, but if someone where to have a weapon you would also have one. Also just because the Mugals have gone doesn't mean that all 'bad' people have gone, a Sikh should defend people so we need to be armed. Where Waheguru JI's army, the Kakaars are apart of our uniform, every army has a uniform. If you look at what Dhan Dhan Sri Hargobind Mahraj Said to Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Har Rai Sahib Patsha. To keep an army but never to go in battle, and that same army was ready upon ready to face the Mugals. Also the Kirpan is our Peer, search on Google for more info. We need Kanga to keep our hair clean, and also when we comb our hair we should contemplate how are day went. We need a Kashera, a Kashera has a nara ( rope to tie it up like on tracksuits), if your going to misuse your sexual organs then first you need to untie the nara. In this day and age, this is required as the internet also has its dark side. Also to remind you that we should not do stuff before marriage and out of marriage.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABPWT0hFzF0

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I watched a Katha on Rehat Maryda And he said that we should eat anything that been touch with person using tabaco, and we should have a full bath after coming into contact with tabaco. The problem is: 1) I go uni and being veg as well my food choices are limited, is it still ok if i eat outside. I can't really eat cold food because it gets stuck in my throat easily. 2) My dad drinks alcohol, he touches the roti thing after he drinks and he also washes my clothes (I study so I don't really have that much time), sometimes he has a glass out while he handles the clean clothes, also all the dishes are washed with same sponge. If feeling really down now, if i think about it everything is touched by alcohol hands. I don't what to do, im not amritdari but still one day hope i can be gifted amrit. Now I just want to move out as soon as I get a job

Im not sure what to say about this. Hopefully other people can guide us

Waheguru Ji Ki Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh http://www.sikhsangat.com/index.php?/topic/76852-sukhmani-sahib-in-house/ - seems to be the same post

He's my older brother :S. Probably start saying sorry if I offend him. Thanks for the advice

My room is at the top of the house and when I do path no one is higher. I should clear the second point up, When I sleep my feet are not facing Gutka Sahibs, but when I do Path because the Gutka Sahib are near the head of bed I face them when I do Path, but to face the Gukta Sahib Ji's I have to face the end of the bed as well, as thats the only place I can sit in my room.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Fateh When I say shut up to my brother I feel bad, because I know I should't be talking like that. I want to say sorry but then he will probably laugh at me or swear at me. Is it necessary to say sorry or is it ok if i don't but learn from my mistakes.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I was reading today, about keeping respect for banis. And I wanted to check if what I'm doing is ok: If we are reading path, do we have to sit on a cloth on the floor? All the Gutka Sahib Ji's in my house are kept in my room, and they are higher than me when I sleep, but when I do path where I sit is facing the Gutka Sahib Ji but im also facing the end of my bed is this disrespectful ? (When I sleep my head is inline with the Gutka Sahib Ji just to clarify) I make mistakes when reciting Gurbani, if I miss pronounced something while listening to Gurbani, do i have to stop or is it ok to continue ? Please forgive me if i said anything wrong or offensive.

Thanks for the advice, I always wondered what happened to my Karma every time i get these thoughts

Thanks for the advice, just need to get this perfection idea out my head.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Acapella Jatha: Chaupai Sahib Anand Sahib 6-Pouree Giani Thakur Singh JI Chardi Kala Jatha Dharam Seva Records also have Nitnem at a good pace

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Your parents think its just a phase. So just remain open with them, do they know about Sikhi? If not just show them, start with the similarities of Sikhi and Christianity. I had cut hair most of my life, and just one day it happened Guru Ji blessed me with Kesh. It just happened, and it will defo happen with you. Its really inspiring to see a young person, not from Sikh family coming into Sikhi. Your really blessed and hopefully you parents will allow you to grow your kesh, if not when your older. It will be worth the wait, that day when look in the mirror and you look like a Singh of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, you feel so happy. Just do Ardaas and ask Guru Ji to bless you with the gift of Kesh when the times right. Hope you remain in Chardi Kala

I used to go to the doctor before, I used to stress to much it got so worse that I started having suicidal thoughts. But the Guru Ji bani helped me through that period. Then I started having bad thoughts which got me into Sikhi a lot more I was getting disturbing thoughts, I still get them but Gurus bani gave me support. I probably have OCD, I think im stressing they way I pronounce banis. And know because its something relating to Guru Ji makes me feel more crapy. Thanks for the showing me the above banis. I just need to trust Guru Ji that i need to get this idea out of my head that if i dont do a bani that something bad is going to happen

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh It would be great if we could help our brothers and sisters in India. But If I where to ask my parents to donate, they think the money will just go to some corrupt person. But if you look at charities like SOPW, they are slowly making a difference, they probably need more support though.

I'll feel so guilty though, I feel like Guru Ji won't be happy with me, its like im giving up Path to follow my own will. Defo check Bhai Sukha Singh Ji katha, they really help me.

I don't know these thoughts just come in my head

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I feel like giving up now. I can't do Path properly, today I tried doing Japji Sahib. I just couldnt do it took me more than an hour to recite it, it took me 40 minutes to do 3 Pouree's. My head feels blocked, and I can't recite anything. I tell my self to man up, still can't do it. During Path i start to swear at Guru Ji, get bad thoughts about the sangat, for example my mind wishes bad stuff to my brother and sisters (the sangat) who are progressing in Sikhi. But why do i want bad stuff to happen to my own family . I feel like whats the point, I dont deserve to be a Sikh. I don't think im strong enough. This is heart breaking for me, things where going well over the past 2 years I was blessed with Kesh, getting more into Sikhi. I can't do Nitnem takes me way to long, to do one bani sometimes, I need to revise for my exams as well which start in a week, but if i don't i feel like Guru Ji was just abandon me. I really don't what to do, if i can't do Japji Sahib properly after trying for more than a year, then im just stuck in one place. I just want to start slowly again, but that guilt really gets me. Im probably annoying the Sangat on here, with these questions, but its the only people I can talk to. Im sorry Guru Ji. Please forgive me if i said anything wrong or offensive.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I wanted advice from the panth, on how I should start Nitnem. Currently i don't know how to read Gurmukhi, but i read the Romanised transliteration. Should I start to properly recite Nitnem after I learn Gurmukhi (hopefully learn in the summer) or shall I carry on reading Romanised? Shall I start slowly increasing banis or go straight to 5. (I started to watch all 5 read alongs on Youtube, but recentlyI felt burnout and I wasn't reciting with love) I don't what I should, I feel really guilty if I don't try to do one, and when I study and listen to it, I can't study I need to recite It. Sometimes I feel like just doing Japji Sahib and Simran, but If i do all 5 I only have time for 10 minutes Simran in the night, and Im currently in my 2nd year at Uni and I have exams coming up and I can't seem to balance time between Path and Studying. Basically Im confused and a bit of tips would help. Please forgive me if i offended anyone or said anything wrong

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I don't eating from others, would take any pun away. It ain't a sin, so if you was to eat at your friends house would your dad say that would take 25 Sukmani Sahib puns away? You can wash your hair in the night, we should be combing our hair twice a day, I do it in the morning and in the night. They clean Sri Harmandir Sahib at night. These are Indian superstitions, don't get tangled in them. Sikhs dont believe in any of them. Your right Everyones equal. 1984 wasn't Hindus against Sikhs, it was Sikhs against a corrupt Indian government, some Hindus helped Sikhs. I think the person giving milk, to the Chotte Sahibzade and Mata Ji was Hindu. Guru Nanak Dev Ji, called Bhai Mardna Ji his brother, obviously Guru Ji would eat at his house. Green think Guru Ji said not to wear it because it green was the Mugal colour and at that time that would cause unnecessary confusion. I would ignore these superstitions, they have no place in Sikhi and not treating the human race as one (Like Guru Ji said). My parents are the same with superstitions, just got to convince them, or find some Katha on these topics and show them. Just stick to what Guru Ji says, not your parents. Guru Ji, teachings are higher than anyones in this world. Please forgive me If i said anything wrong or offensive. Bole So Nihaal Sat Sri Akal

Thanks for correcting me, didn't know that

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Speaking Gurmukhi is similar, to Punjabi but not exactly same. There are some phrases, that are just more fun to say in Punjabi then english, and when i'm with my friends we tend like what or how you doing in punjabi. Learning it won't be that difficult, If you learn it you can speak/read Gurbani much better. Check out these people, there from America and can probably speak much better Gurmukhi and Punjabi than me. Link You could learn from Basics of Sikhi they got some videos on learning Gurmukhi

Don't think a petition would do much. Think we need to start acting stuff asap.
