You should Shave Mr Singh


Recommended Posts

:doh: @ well this has been an exciting week for me. So far i had 5 interviews in 3 days and today was my Graduation day which went well, tomrrow i am back in london for 6th interview.

out of my first 5 interviews i got two job offers and two 2nd interviews. But this incedent occured on my 3rd interview on Tuesday in Chesington.

I just had an interview and was running late for another interview so i called a taxi and the driver came after a bit and drove me to the required address. When i got out of the taxi i was feeling very cheery as I had just had a good interview so i gave him a £2 tip, actual taxi fare was £8, i gave him £10. So he called me to the front window and since he had heard me on the fone during the journey he said to me,

Listen, you are going for an interview right, You know this is White man's country (The driver was morrocon, muslim), you cant grow beard here, if u want the job, you should shave. It is the culture here.

I said

Do you drink? He said "No, i am Muslim", then i said, well you should drink because this is a white man's country and That is the Culture here rolleyes.gif

Then i said to him that its not what you look like (too a certain extent), its what you can do that counts. I left to have my interview and now i am going for my final interview to the same place tomrrow LOL.gif

So i had 80% success rate 4 positive responses from 5 interviews, which i am very happy about. The message of this topicis that, A Sikh is capable of achieving anything that anyother person can achieve if not more, after all we are Sardars ("Leaders") :TH:

So to all the Guys out there, dont change ur self for others, Change others for urself. :nihungsmile:

I will leave you with the picture of the cut i have gotton on my foot from walking for 3 days in london, running around , travelling in trains wearing office shoes which i hadnt worn for 6 months grrr

Waheguru jee ka khalsa waheguru jee kee fateh

Awesome post :) :doh:

This is real practical example how a gursikh should act / react in his or her social life. This message seems kind of fun but there are so many hidden messages in it.

Sangato guess those hidden messages.

Waheguru jee ka khalsa waheguru jee kee fateh

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
