Being born to a Sikh family does not make us Sikhs...

---------------------------------------------------------------

For me, Sikhism is life. I breathe it. I live it. I will die with

it. A Sikh is someone who loves to live. A Sikh loves life. For a

Sikh, life is becoming one with the almighty, sweet Vaheguru and

humanity. Life for a Sikh is a continual learning process. A Sikh is

someone who is "man" enough to admit his or her mistakes and learn

from those mistakes. This is the essence of life. The Gurus know we

are just human beings. We will make mistakes. A Sikh is someone who

LEARNS from those mistakes and does not repeat them. Yes, a Sikh

learns from experience. A Sikh is like a walking, physical

laboratory. A Sikh simply gives. Gives his mind, body and soul for a

cause.

A Sikh does not give out of pity, but out of love, for love

is what colors the soul of a Sikh. A Sikh shares food with those who

are hungry. A Sikh shares his wealth with those who are poor. A Sikh

shares his clothing with those who are unclothed. A Sikh lends his

or her hand to those needing help. A Sikh stands for truth and

justice when there is falsehood or injustice. Yes my friend, a Sikh

simply gives. Giving is the nature of a Sikh, its just natural. A

Sikh gives not to a particular kind of people, but to ALL PEOPLE

regardless of color, sex, religion belief. A Sikh is a genuinely

concerned individual who lives for the well being of humanity. Yet,

a Sikh does not expect anything in return. A Sikh simply wishes to

share all this love which colors his or her soul. A Sikh is someone

who has the God given energy or

potential to become the all round

individual.

Yes indeed! A Sikh can be spiritual, athletic, poetic,

artistic, humorous, compassionate, a successful person in the

working world, friendly--a genuine human being. A Sikh can indeed be

all of these things and more. A Sikh can become the

super-human-being. Why? Because a Sikh FACES CHALLENGES HEAD ON. No

matter how difficult a situation is, no matter how undoable the

situation seems, a Sikh never gives up hope, never gives up spirit.

A Sikh does not know what giving up is. Nothing is impossible for a

Sikh. As a follower of the sweet Gurus teachings, a Sikh is blessed

with God given energy and strength to change the impossible to the

possible. Yes my friend, others like to swim with the current,

others like to walk with the wind, but a Sikh holds onto the hand of

the Guru and swims against the current of life, walks against the

wind. The ocean of life seems so vast, so big, almost neverending

and others see this as a difficult swim to undertake. A Sikh comes

to this ocean, and without any hesitation jumps into this ocean of

life with body, mind and soul and swims until the ocean is crossed.

Yes my friend, Sikh is a fighter--a warrior of life.

My humble gift to you has been opened...

      Sanjog, Marriage, Destiny, & Free Will

      By Jassu · Posted

      the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.

      Islam has become Redpilled in the West...Everyone is converting to Islam

      By Jassu · Posted

      andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.

      stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect.
