Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Sounds great, it gets depressing when you have to wait for a long time before next kirtan darbar. Just a little advice, could the program be organised in a Gurdwara Sahib? I.e. Edward St or Guru Har Rai as they are both in centre of West Bromwich? That way your feel you actually are in the Gurus Darbar? Either way great seva and im sure sangat will attend. Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I have always had the understanding that the Anand Karaj should only ever involve Amritdharie couples and this was always puraton maryada, does anyone else have any more information on this? Gurfateh Ji

The sole hukam of Guru Gobind Singh Maharaj was that we all take Khande Da Phaul and become tyar bar tyar not just keep Singh and Kaur as names. I think promoting just an adoption of the singh/kaur as a surname will be interpretted by some as an easy option of being a sikh. Just like wearing a kara does not fastrack anyone to Sikhi, the same applies to just keeping Singh or Kaur in your name. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Bhai Sahib ji i think you misunderstood what i meant, i didnt mean only accepting the title of singh and kaur obviously we should try to follow everything the Guru sahibs have told us, keeping surnames of singh or kaur helps us in so many ways such as hiding the filthy castes associated with them, accepting that we belong to the family of Guru Gobind Singh. The Surnames people keep have not been given to us by the Guru sahibs so why attach ourselves to them? Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Bhai sahib good points made, and i agree the foundations of sikhi are important such as seva simran. But i also believe keeping the sole surname as kaur or singh is the hukam of guru gobind singh which should not be taken lightly, for example i use the khalsa greeting whenever i speak to a gursikh or do sikhi vichaar, it doesnt make you a sikh or a good sikh if you use the khalsa greeting but it is good practice. Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Bhai sahib jaipal used the word gursikh to describe themselves, a gur sikh translates into "guru da sikh" i.e. guru granth sahib ji is your guru and you are his sikhs, if this is what you believe then accept the hukam that was laid down by guru gobind singh and only accept the title of singh and kaur. You have stated that it is wrong for the gurdwara sevadar to judge you on your names rather than your deeds, changing your title is a deed and an action that shows you follow the way of the sikh gurus i.e. the khalsa panth. Gurfateh Ji

Ek Onkar Satnam Guru pyare you dont have to go pesh because you did not commit a sin, it was a honest accident and Guru Maharaj knows this even before you did it? You go pesh when you have committed a cardinal sin i.e. 4 kureyats with prior knowledge. I was speaking to a very gupt and very old bibi who has done sangat with very great sants and i was told that Amrit can crack your soul i.e. if you keep drinking Amrit just for any old reason i.e. going pesh for this reason or that reason where Amrit is again admistered to the peshi. Amrit is very powerful and the affects of it i dont think many of us understand. This vichaar has been told to me and may be something you may want to investigate for your own please dont take my word for it. The Amrit we should cleanse ourselves with daily is Amrit Bani, and that is what should wash our sins especially if they were not intentional, pesh is only for very extreame circumstances where you know you did it using manmat. It is your heart felt ardas and sharda and kamaiye that will cleanse you of the sins we commit every day. gurfateh ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Sangat Ji the more the Khalsa sangat grows in the UK and the more pyare that grows within them for kirtan and sangat the more programs we are all gonna see i.e. alot more clashes. I have seen that more and more organisations are booking their program/event dates in advance for the entire year which some people may find unfair but we all need to respect each other and if some one would like to organise a program or event they shouldnt be made to feel intimidated or like they have the a big wrong. Forgive me if i have upset anyone just my 2 pennys worth. Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I like the sound of this, great seva Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh The understanding that has been passed to me is that a Kirpan should be in the form as your see traditionally i.e. a outer cutting edge which is curved to the tip. I was told that the kirpan should be sarbloh as it performs spritually duties aswell as for defense. The shape of the kirpan is part of how it does the kirpa for example a pesh kab which is a great shastar cannot do the same kirpa as a kirpaan. Like i said this the understanding i have you dont need to accept it. Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru...what a great saint

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Sangat Ji there an Amrit Sanchar been organised with Guru Ji's kirpa at 22nd December 2007 - 1pm Gurdwara Amrit Parchar Dharmik Diwan 65 Birmingham Road Oldbury, Warley West Midlands UK Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh We should respect western traditions such as christmas but we should not celebrate them for obvious reasons. A Gurmat Camp has been organised at Oldbury Gurdwara, Birmingham on christmas day to bring our people out of this christmas culture and into our gurdwara sahibs to celebrate events such as the sacrifices made by the sahibzade. There are many other camps going on around the UK which we should try to attend. Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Should be a great camp Gurfateh Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Sounds like a great camp, the kids and sangat should take away alot. You have a great line up of activities is there costs involved for the sangat? as the poster doesnt state anything. Gurfateh Ji
