    People, if you do not already know this, Harinder is part of the Dhadrianwala Jatha. In india, the Jatha is called by Nirvair Khalsa Dal, in the UK they go by the name of Nirvair Khalsa Jatha. Harinder and co, are the UK/Western based wing of their cult like group. So of course he is not going to interrupt or comment on his groups leader. 

    In India they're a dal???? lol, they probably don't have the type of shastar rehit required for an actual dal hahaha

    I have heard conflicting information regarding Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s wife Jind “Kaur” (only a Kaur in name). 

    Shes often praised and seen as a role model for Kaurs. However, recently I have seen people say that she was corrupt and sleeping with the Dogra’s. 

    What do you guys think? 

    I thought her name was Maharani Jindan.

    Had panth normalised Kaur name for women during Maharaja Ranjit Singh's rule?

    I'm ready for confused bootha to come out in force, but I'd warmly and vigorously greet them with a Sat Sri Akal. Or Akaaaaaali.  

    When they ask what the heck you just said, say that's how we greet fellow warriors or how we greet immortal warriors. 

    That gives them proper respect to start and might be all the hook you need to get them very interested in Sikhi. 

    wow awesome!!!

    ^ The exact opposite of a Woke Person.

    NOPE, only someone in rehit should be residing over Akaal Takht.

     

    Not someone wearing cultural turban and kurta pyjama with no kammarkassa and lack of shastar rehit.

    I dont understand what is wrong with having a girlfriend and spending quality time with her and maybe even pleasure with each other(Not just sex). Who are you really hurting? You are just sharing each others love and if they happen to be a great people in life and have good morals and standards of living why should it matter.

    Well in Gurus' times teenagers and young adults were married, why not get married instead of having girlfriend.

    Guru Nanak promoted grihast dharam, grihast jeevan; you cannot have grihast jeevan with girlfriend. Girlfriends take you away from grihast jeevan and make you get married late. 

    You will there is a lot of harm in getting married later; the adults have grown up too much that they haven't grown compatible together and will not have grown into respecting each other. The daughter in laws will not have grown up with the paretns in law from a young age and this cause massive issues.

    This in turn leads to talaaq/dirvoce, a concept which is incompatible with dharmik culture.

    When a woman becomes widwa/widow, she maybe called rundee hogei. But this trash dating culture is leading to women being left by men without even being married, and these exes become rundee as their partner is like being dead to them , ie ex-partner/ ex boyfriend. 

    If you follow Gurus and respect them, then you follow grihast dharam. sikh looks for a life partner, by looking for a girlfriend instead you are wasting time away from your life partner. Some abrahamic religions allow concubines or sex slaves, and with girlfriends you are doing something similar!!!! sikhi does allow polygamy (remember it is still part of grihast jeevan as opposed to trashy dating culture), some brave Singhs like bhai Mani Singh had 2 wives, Maharaja Ranit Singh had more - they also married as teenagers or young adults. So the wives replaced any need for girlfriends.

    If one can have a wife or wives, then what is the need for girlfriends? They are just cheap replacements/options. Just lead by Guru Nanak's example of following grihast!

    and the fact that it was quite clearly written by non-sikhs  with a pronounced agenda . There are loads of alcoholics who are not violent but it doesn't make a juicy and castigating piece against sikhs.

    and also we are also funding this BBC news by paying the tv licence fee.

    Sometimes I feel like stop paying, but then parents want to watch the sikhi channels on the TV; I can just stream and watch Youtube.

    hanji but can you not put your bharosa in Guru ji's keertan instead of jathebandi's own styles?

    Hello... 

    From my readings I understand God to be formless and genderless and incomprehensible. However, I have read in a couple placed that God created man in his image. How could humans be the image of God when God is formless and present in all of creation. To me it makes sense that God would be formless because this whole of creation is God and a manifestation of God. God isn't just a human figure sitting somewhere making the world go round. Can someone elaborate on this notion that God created humans in God's image? Thanks!

    but also don't get confused with abrahamic God term.

    Use the nirguna sarguna concept of gurbani

    unbelievable that you talk of shasters and waging war, and misleading Sikhs about how serious you are, when most of you are not Sikhs or not even having barosa in Gurbani!

    yet you put your bharosa in jathebandis that don't have bharosa in all of Adi Guru Granth Sahib bani, not have bharosa in keertan in Guru's maryada, and not following rehit of Guru's hukam of keeping shastar and panj shastar and practising shastarvidiya. eh? eh? eh?

    The last sentence is true - employers want someone who can 'hit the ground running' without training you up, especially if they're small. They'll see the degree but are always more interested in recent courses - shows genuine interest and initiative to them.

    Certain organisations offer training and qualifications in A+, N+, MCSA etc. but better to find and download the learning material online and take the exams independently (too expensive with little difference in cost without 3rd parties) in my opinion.

    Never too late for anyone to pursue a career in this field - met enough 40+ year olds myself still looking for work in this field.

    yes, especially for the lower level ones, do the a+ and network+ with you own materials. Also apprenticeships are also good, and sometimes internships.

    Also true about the 40+ year olds, seen them at a training provider in Wembley.

    At the moment, AWS is the in demand cert at the moment to get far in the ladder. Cheap way of doing it is using Udemy. Udemy training courses going for a tenner at the moment, until the next offer comes again which is every few weeks.

     

    here's some on demand videos. there's a browser check at the start https://onlinexperiences.com/scripts/Server.nxp?LASCmd=AI:4;F:APIUTILS!10&ShowKey=47218&SuppressLoginLink=0&DisplayItem=NULL&APILoginLink=/scripts/Server.nxp?LASCmd=L:0%26AI=1%26ShowKey=47218%26LoginType=0%26InitialDisplay=0%26ClientBrowser=0%26DisplayItem=NULL%26ExAPISUK=-8687646%26RandomParam=Apr 3 2018 10:39:51:228AM%26LangLocaleID=1033&LangLocaleID=1033

    In my case I graduated with a 2:1  honours   degree in computing  back in 2011. Since Graduation I have been unable to get IT or any office job. I current work at Waitrose (been there for 8 years now)  I earn about  £8.20 an hour which is not alot when compared to my cousins  and friends etc who have also graduated and our on 32-45k a year. My cousin/aunties/uncles  absolutely love bragging about this  and try to make me feel small. Honestly I have not time for them. I maybe on low wage and my job may not be great  but I work hard and do my job to a great standard. 

    As for the future I am still searching and would like  job that  has decent pay where I can buy my own  house and get married etc. I have had plenty of Interviews  last one was for an IT  Helpdesk job where over 100 applied and only 20 were interviews I was one of 20 that were interviews but did not get the job. The IT job market is very competitive . I have  even applied at banks for customer service roles.

    I have done voluntary Work  IT back in 2013. I did my placement year  as part of my degree in 2009  which went terribly wrong as 5 months into my placement the company  had finical difficulty adn had to let me go  however I volunteered to work for free to gain full credits towards my degree and to gain experience.  The company did not  give me enough work and most of the time i spent doing nothing for  7 months. I did  like it it all and it really put me off  the IT/computing.

    So its been  a  struggle and at times which me  have low self esteem . Since July 2017 I was dealing with anxiety and depression (caused by many other reasons and not just work) I felt low and , tearful at times but  now I feel alot better. Hopefully things will get better. I have faith in Waheguru which has got me thought the bad times. 

    Most Important thing i have learnt which we should all apply is that dont compare yourself to others  which can be easily done  with social  media etc   we are  all on on our pathway to life. focus on your own journey and do what  it take be happy .  

    I studied in IT, I graduated during the recession, couldn't find decent job, then done postgrad, but was still the recession and still struggled for years.

    I am working in 2nd line IT at the moment. IF you want to work in IT it's really good to get professional qualifications.  You could start with A+ and Network+ or something similar to try and get into 1st line, and then train yourself up with further certs. Plus the Waitrose customer service experience will really help you with the 1st line jobs, either face-to-face 1st/2nd line or helpdesk.

    To be honest, my degrees haven't been that useful in getting the jobs, it's been more useful doing the training and getting experience.
