to be honest veerjee i didn't notice much difference in both videos btw saadhrayn means saadh = the saints rayn = the dust of the feet saadhrayn = the dust of the feet of the saints for example in gurbani these are some shabads saadhh janaa kee raen naanak ma(n)gal sookh sadhhaarae ||2||1||31|| O Nanak, the dust of the feet of the Holy shall bless you with pleasure and peace. ||2||1||31|| ________________ naanak ma(n)gai dhaan prabh raen pag saadhhaa ||4||3||27|| Nanak begs God for the gift of the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||4||3||27|| __________________________ saadhhasa(n)gath kee saranee pareeai charan raen man baashhai ||1|| I have sought the Sanctuary of the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; my mind longs for the dust of their Feet. ||1|| ___________________________ rameeaa raen saadhh jan paavo || O Lord, I seek the dust of the feet of the Holy. _____________________________ saadhhasa(n)g hoe sabh kee raen || In the Company of the Holy, one becomes the dust of all. ______________________________ vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!

Dear "Bengali" jee we are all here for you if you ever have any questions on sikhi in particular any aspect of gurbani or lifestyle please feel free to e-mail me at saadhrayn@yahoo.com your sister -sk

at the least you all should e-mail the guy and say 'veerjee, we love you, if you need help e-mail us. your sangat is with you.'

nah... he's not being arrested.. he's just hyped... and they're like "whoa... hold up."

I was talking with a friend of a friend of a friend of a sevadar of Waheguru network yesterday ..... and they said they need programming help to set up the sikh resource library anybody who's up for it should contact the admins of this site just an idea

the videos are great jee but a small pet peeve spyware loads when you go into your forum i don't like that bhul chuk maf karna

japman veer, i think their concern is that if you want to get rid of the misconceptions and bad reputation of sikhs then sikhs have to become khalsas when all sikhs become khalsas guru jee will do kirpa without rehit we can't expect to get guru jee's kirpa there is no pyaar without rehit rehit is pyaar ( i need to work on my rehit so much... it shows i am just a fraud ) so if these people practiced rehit they would be showing real pyaar for guru jee and when they showed real pyaar they would get real kirpa and people in india would stop ridiculing sikhs just my thoughts please forgive me for my mistakes

umm... either this is really chardee kalaa singh supporting worldwide religious parchar of true religion and true lifestyle or ....... or i dunno ... why is a singh cutting the ribbon to open the mission..

the last line somewhat amuses me. the person who wrote it must have thought he was telling a funny joke. "what will the khalsa rule will be seen next week" manmukh jee, i would tell him, the khalsa doesn't need to rule your little runway. that is the play of maya in which you are so deeply coloured. the khalsa rules its mind, and by way of ruling the mind, it will rule the world. manmukh jee, rather than be upset with you i feel sorry for you that you have such tunnel .. or should i say runway.. vision. if those plucked and shaved people in the pic do succeed what does it prove? they're not proper sardars anyway... yuckk

vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Khalsa jee I wrote a long message and I think I just stopped making sense so I'm re-writing this. __________________ I think it's all about context. The Guru Khalsa panth has no limit to shardaa and faith. EXAMPLE 1 Some Sikhs were setting up the takhat of GUru Granth Sahib jee at somebody's house. They said we can't bring in Guru Jee until we have the chandoa / chananee / canopy set up. One inquisitive (but maybe cynical) Sikh said, "Well you don't have a chananee in the car when you brought Guru jee. So you dont' need one now." Two wrongs don't make a right. This Sikh's comment is not the answer to the problem. The answer is, do everything you can to respect Guru jee. Put up the chananee now, before Guru jee comes, and Next time, HAVE A chananee in the car ! EXAMPLE 2 __________ Some Sikhs were doing Guru Granth SAhib jee's seva. The road was very muddy. A group of Gursikhs with all faith and love got together and started to power-wash the road. HOwever, even after 20 minutes of seva, the road was still dirty. One of the Sikhs went to Home Depot to buy a large roll of plastic floor covering. He couldn't find it in time. They did all they could do respect Maryada, but couldn't find any other solution. therefore the Sikhs doing seva of GUru jee wore shoes on the road, and took their shoes off at the door of the darbar hall. If they didn't take their shoes off, the mud would get on their feet and go into the darbar hall. Therefore I don't think they made a bad decision. MY POINT ________ I think it's all about the context. 100% faith but also when something cannot be done according to Maryada, you try your best to do what you can within the situation. Always need to be in chardee kalaa and practice with faith. Just some thoughts. Forgive me for my errors and shortcomings. vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!

i will try to do 10 for me and 10 for my alter-ego, hee hee

SIKH SCHOOLCHILDREN WILL NOT BE ASKED TO REMOVE THEIR TURBANS OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL GATES New Delhi, February 11th, 2004 French Ambassador to India has reassured Sikhs that a Sikh child will not be made to remove his Turban outside the school gates when the law banning religious symbols is implemented in the new school year in September. “I am confident that had the Sikhs been consulted by the Stasi commission the Turban would not have been considered a religious symbol which falls under the remit of the law” Mr Girad Dominique told a Sikh delegation who met him in Delhi today. “ The law will most certainly be passed but it will only be valid for a year as it will have to be reviewed by parliament again,” he said. “France never knew so much about the Sikhs as they do now. I am confident that as we are a secular society, an accomodation will be found for Sikhs to practise their faith,” he said. “ We have taken on board all the representations which have been made by Sikhs globally and we are aware that the Turban is essential to cover a Sikh’s unshorn hair,” he added. During the meeting, UNITED SIKHS director Jaspal Singh delivered to Mr Girard 100,000 online and handsigned signatures which were collected in the Panjab, Kanpur and Delhi areas for the Right To Turban petition, which was organised by UNITED SIKHS. UNITED SIKHS, a human development organisation had launched the global petition campaign to appeal against the French government’s decision to ban religious symbols in public schools. Akal Purakh Ki Fauj’s Jaswinder Singh Advova te, who is also a member of SGPC, the apex Sikh representative body in the Panjab, had joined UNITED SIKHS by collecting signatures in Panjab. In a joint memorandum, the delegation said that the single message that has been conveyed in the signature campaign is that the Sikh Turban is a non-negotiable article of faith and identity for the Sikhs. The French Ambassdor appreciated the views, the restraint and the clarity with which the memorandum and support documents had been presented. Mr Girard said that the law was not against any religion. “It was only by default, that the Sikh Turban has been brought under the remit of the law,” he said. He said that the French Government was committed to protect total religious freedom and to protect freedom of thought and religious practice. Mr. Girard further appreciated that for the Sikhs, the Turban was an article of faith and has been caught in this cross debate. He also put forward his deep feelings, sympathy and his friendship for Sikhs and highlighted the deep and strong relationship between the Sikhs and the French, who in their evolution, had faced wars of religion and massacres, on account of such intolerances. Mr. Girard was handed a CD with slide shows on “Sikhs In French History” an an Introduction to Sikhism” produced by UNITED SIKHS. The National Minority Commission chairman, Tirlochan Singh, is due to meet the French External Affairs Minister who arrived in Delhi today. “ I have forwarded a dossier from UNITED SIKHS to Mr Tirlochan Singh for the attention of the French External Affairs Minister,” Mr Jaspal Singh said. The delegation which met the French Ambassador comprised Mr. Jaspal Singh , Director – UNITED SIKHS, Mr. Vikramjit Singh Sahney , International President – World Punjabi Organisation , Mr. Prehlad Singh Chandhok , President – Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee , Mr. H.S. Phoolka , Human Rights Lawyer , Lt. Gen. M.S. Bhullar , former QMG – Indian Army . “ The meeting with the ambassador wa s very encouraging and succesful,” said Mr Vikramjit Singh Sahney.
