  1. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! While you are right, that waheguru is everywhere, not everyone realizes it at all times. That's why having a picture of Guru will always remind you that he is everywhere everytime you look at him. Its kinda like a lot of people have Ik Onkar tatooed on the back of their hand, so that they will always remember that wahguru is with them always. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  2. Great post i was waiting if someone write this.... i wonder which one will be more worse... 1) A butcher who still try to earn honest living though he has pic of guru nanak there... 2) A soldier with pic of guru nanak in his wallet..killing another soldier (of other country) 3) A amritdhari sikh, who cheats, always lie, has no nimarta Butcher is butcher by his profession....and ofcourse Jassika ji in her last post made a valid doubt Its easy to c, someone doing crime in front of cop, aaaaaaaaw that means...our cop is pic of guru nanak i wonder again, what u mean.....either to dive in ocean without completing 12 grades..out of them one is no idol worship... isnt it? Bhul Chuk Maaf vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! I agree very much with this post, but I do have one concern. For example, if instead of meat, this person was selling alchohol. The same arguments could be made, but if this person is a sikh, and thus shuns alchohol because it is bad and wrong, then is it ok for that Sikh to take part in making other people drunk as well? Meat is similar: if this person believes that eating meat is wrong but still sells it to others so that they eat it too, does this violate his moral duty as a Sikh? just wondering. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  3. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! I think this is where that trap falls in the line between Guru and holy book (another topic). We look at our Guru Sahib and treat it with the best that we can give it (ie: only Amritdhari sikhs allowed anywhere near it). But remember, the Adi Granth sahib was designed as a guidebook for how to live our lives. You cannot seriously expect others to follow the guide without being allowed to read the guide-book! Remember, everything is relative: this is our Guru, but to a Christian, its a guide. It would be morally wrong to forbit the Christian from reading the guide to become a better person (or eventually a Sikh). vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!

  5. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Yes, but look at the success of all religions which openly use translated versions (one that comes to mind: CHRISTIANITY). Their text original is an ancient form of latin... but by having it available in every known language (incl. punjabi, hindi, arabic, chinese, ..., even some tribal african languages), they have been super successful in getting people to become Christian. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  6. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Well, the slang is kinda hard to understand, but I hope to live with it... With regard to the topic, that is absolute nonsense that only Amritdharis are allowed to read it. Remember that this was written from GURU NANAK DEV JI through to GURU TEG BAHADUR JEE. Amrit WASN'T EVEN INVENTED!! Anyone who wished to consult the Guru could do so, and they did. Our Guru Granth Sahib is for EVERYONE. ALL OF MANKIND. Not just Amritdharis. Not just Sikhs. EVERYONE. (and plus, its retarded to think that someone is going to convert to becoming an Amritdhari Sikh if they aren't even allowed to read the Sri Guru Granth Sahib!) vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  7. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Kam jee, I am sorry if I wasn't clear, but I never said that I don't like that interpretation. I know that it does have a greater meaning, but for the sake of translation, i only wished to ask about this rhyming version as compared to others. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  8. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Maybe ssk fell asleep at the switch Its not online yet... but I hope it should be soon! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  9. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! AMAZING reply Singh! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  10. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! You probably can run XP on that platform, but it will probably be fairly slow. Windows 2000 is based on a similar platform as NT, but it should be less memory intensive I think. But just to prove that these ideas have no merit, I have a computer at work (Pentium II, 300 MHz) which was really slow with Win2000, but when that was removed and XP installed, it began running faster than my PentIV, 2.4 Ghz at home!!! But I think that would be the exception to the rule! Hope that helps! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  11. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Just one thing I found that seems to be relevant to this topic: On the title bar of http://www.saintsoldiers.net is the following quotation: "An ideal Sikh is a saint first, then, if necessary, a soldier" This would agree with the idea that one must be a Sikh (saint), and then only be a soldier (Singh). vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  12. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Ahh! Wicked pics, man! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  13. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Can't wait till Simran tomorrow... vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  14. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Uh, Kandola, it doesn't say no god before god... it says: ie: there is one God. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  15. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! But if the ultamate goal is to become like the Guru, then first we must start by learning (as a Sikh), and make ourselves to become like Sri Guru Gobind SINGH, (guru=singh). vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  16. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Wicked job ssk, You have gotta tell me how you got it working! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  17. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! I must say though, it is an interesting effort... And please do find out more info about those other translations, Amardeep, I would really like to see that. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  18. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! I have seen lots of translations of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib (as I am really poor in Punjabi). BUT, this is the first one that I have seen... that actually rhymes! Please check it out: GuruGranthSahib.com Now I know that when I read it, it "feels" much better than the non-translated versions, but is that OK? I mean it is possible that some translation may have gotten lost in the process of making it rhyme. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  19. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Sangat jee, please take a look at this quote, and write down if you agree and disagree and why. Thanks! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  20. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Well, while I agree its nice that they are getting a personal forum, they only have a total of 11 topics... and we have thousands!!! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  21. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! haha, that news article says it might have a lifespan of MAXIMUM 100 years, so knowing how much use it will get, we will be doing kar seva in another 50! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  22. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! I have never been discriminated openly... stuff in elementary school, but that doesn't really count! vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
  23. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! That is OK... but having the gianijee stand there... thank you Parkesh Singh for $10, Allu Singh $35, .... Arkjeet Singh $55, and Anu Singh for parshad seva for opening up their new shop (insert catchy commercial here),.... That is kinda ridiculous. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!
