We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be. Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!! AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago. If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room.

Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes? First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly. Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute. As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST! Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up. FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch. Fateh.

Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May? Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj.

Sangat Ji, This group is about NON Sikh talk so just the general stuff. For an example, where are you from? Am in the UK born n bred. I have a wife and a child my job is a Machine Operator. Talk about ANYTHING like Netflix, painting, Music, maybe put a pic of your latest Art? Vent about something etc.

2025 THAT time of year again! Am gonna plant some tulips hopefully this year. My parents' garden is huge and they're gardening fanatics so any green veggies use their gardens for growing. Our garden can't do sabjia due to lack of space.

Sangat ji, What is the best way of YOU doing charity seva??? These days giving spare change on d streets, we accuse the people asking to be druggies / alcoholic. Giving online companies keep 80 or 90% of donations and CEO can be robbers / misuse money. Local charity Sevadars at Gurudwara we assume they use our donations to purchase stuff for Gurudwara. We do not trust any charitable donations in India due to its rep. On top there's debate on "Dasvand." Some say £10 per month very few say "If u earn £2700 a month thas £270 gone to charity." How do YOU do Dasvand d seva each month?

Maybe, or even time it takes for their fates being decided hell or heaven. If the machine thing shows positive neurons must b heaven and vice versa for hell.

One thing can be clarified is these Babe have failed and fallen in their jivans sadly. When we fail at work we rectify and make sure we don't make same mistake again or worry about the consequences. Same with driving lessons we prepare ourselves before the examiner. But when we fall in our spiritual jivan??? Things are different. It can be Punjab, Ilford or Venus failure is something we should get back up n improve. Does it happen often? IDK about that. My Chacha in Punjab had taken Amrit then he took off gatra before consuming meat n alcohol again.

Also with variants, Taksal santhia may say words differently to Amritsari Santhia then Baru Sahibs may too differ. However they defintely agree on coma (0.5 sec pause) and comma all in the same spots(1 sec pause). And when u see pause (II) thas over a second pause. Yes, doesn't matter where u took santhia it's definetly Abhiaas! More we read more it's clearer. Taking Santhia from teachers 5 times is minimum.

Sangat ji, According to scientific research when a person dies their brain is alive for 7 minutes and they are dreaming how they lived their lives / reliving Golden Moments of their lives. Your views?

Oh dear! Listen to yer mum. Alternative, go ahead with marriage. Punjabi parents forgive and forget IDK WHY they put up these farces for a short while.

Punjab, mate. Especially Amritsar and Ferozepur regions.

Yeeaaah I know one Sikh guy who has a dog here in UK. Doesn't bother with daily walks, tied up in Garden all day.

Hello? Where is everyone on this forum?

Best of luck with marriage congrats. Yes I had first time experienced seeing the mix dance about 7 years ago. I was confused! There used to be a huge gap between men n women dancing. Not even rajje shraabis dared cross that line. Oh! And wha was the music in the mix dance?? Ed Sheeran Shape of you!
