... wow..... Vaheguru....

There's actually a movie called "Pay It Forward"... a very good movie, and i suggest everybody to watch it..

By the way.. i don't think anybody's denying the fact that 'nothing beats keertan/bani'..

All this being said... I think most people listen to the music for the 'beats' and don't really pay attention to the lyrics.. the songs that i actually choose to 'listen' to have good lyrics...

to each their own.. if a person doesn't think listenin to anything other then keertan is good for them, then thats fine, power to them... not everything affects all of us the same way... think about it, how many shabads done by keertanee's come from hindi/punjabi songs anyway?

everybody's spirituality works at their own level... if a person thinks listenin to music doesn't harm them, then thats fine... don't put them down..

... to each their own..

Blesseddd!!

They can't keep a good man down

Always keep a smile when they want me to frown

Keep the vibes and they stood my grounds

They will never ever take my crown ( referring to turban)

Who Jah bless I say no man curse

Things gettin better when they thought it would be worse

.....

Cause I'm so solid as a rock they just can't stop me now

Even when they set their traps they just can't stop me now

People will say this and that they just can't stop me now

Even when they set up road blocks they just can't stop me now

The lyrics of one of the reggae artists i listen to... i admit, not all his songs are good like this, but the conscious reggae songs mostly are about this kind of stuff...

Not all songs are bad.

yeh, i would think there's both busses and taxis... i kno at the train station there's nuff'a dem there... in fact, as u walk outside, there'll probably be like 20 or so drivers who will approach you askin u if u need a ride.. haha... i dun tink u'll hvae a problem gettin to darbar sahib..

REGGAE...... nuff said.. :s

okay.. yeh.. i was WAY off... pheena nah from muslim background.. i must'a confused him wit sum1 else... i THINk i confsued him wit Yasmin... even though, yasmin is female, and pheena is male...

i'm maddddd confused.. hehe.. my bad..

and pheena doesnt have a muslim background

are u sure???? i swear i was told that... or maybe i'm mistakin for sum1 else??? :D

if i was wrong.. then my apologies...

but then again.. pheena DOES know a lot about sikhi and history :s

abdus-- u shud also get in contact with "Pheena". One of our members who is of Muslim background who knows a lot about Sikhism and its history.

You know what made me burst out laughing on this page: http://www.islamawareness.net/Sikhism/convince.html

You see the heading "How to convince a Sikh about Islam", and under that on the right hand side you see a link to a website which says "Find your Muslim match" with a picture of a Muslim bibi. I was like Okayyyyy, so you gonna convince me by tempting me with a kurri !!!!!! Nice try!!!!! But we used to this for centuries!!!!! Sorry!!!!!

oye.. aren't u lookin to get married anyway?

^ that bibi is butt ugly too. YUCK !!!! who'd want to wake up to that

edey naal ta meri jutti vi na viah karey :s

oye.. tha's not nice!!! take that back singha...

there's a big diff between 'beating' and 'hitting'...

what about those of us that GOT beat?

Mehtab Singh's post says it all

Vaheguru!

"raaj na chaahu, mukat na chaahu, man preet charan kamlaray"

We do bani, simran, seva, sangat etc... not to please God, or for any 'rewards', or even 'mukti' for that matter... we do all this, for the LOVE of the Lord... we ask only the Guru Sahib put us at his charan, and imbue HIS charan in our hearts.. because we want to have tru ISHQ of Akaal Purakh... as Banda put it, 'unconditional love'...

if we do bani, simran, seva, sangat and all that other good stuff to 'please' sum1 or for 'rewards', then we're not doing it with a pure intent.... then we're just doing it to get something out of it... and it only becomes a motion, not a feeling...

Big up to her and the Sikh Coalition for doin somethin bout it...

mad Respect!!

its not a rehat maryada.. thats somethin tha's recommended i THINK on the taksal website.. buh there's no maryada on age difference.. i's about maturity, and where u both are in ur lives...

i kno a lot of guyz who are more mature then females who are either the same age or older... so age 'aint nuttin but a numba' so to speak...

Children need discipline... i'm sure kids those days got a good beating/slapup now n then, if they acted a fool... personally, i'm glad i got beat when i was younger... taught me some discipline.... buh, i probably shuda got a few more beatings... haha...

kids shud'n be hit for the sake of beatin them.. buh if they do sumthin dumb, that they kno they're nah supposd to do, then i think some discipline is required..

I Admit... all fruits ripe :s

there's that boxer singh in toronto..

I Admit... its comin along nicely :s
