The pic was years before I became a Sikh of the guru, and I put it there because I wanted to. Why do you not approve of it?

"""""400 years of religous inbreeding and born into a culture that shuts out other people.""""""""

I said no Jews do this and have for over 3000 years.

Why would it matter who marrys who?

You should start apointing who can marry who and call it Lionchildmatchmaker.com and youll make enough money to be a missionary that in Sikhi we dont encourage.

why would i? i'm talking about an overal trend that has been happening over a long period of time, havn't you noticed that most sikhs are of punjabi background? And you may have a problem pritma ofme spreading sikhi someday, but that is too bad.. suck it up big boy...

We teach Sikhi through example and not trying to be missionaries. We need to teach Sikhs Sikhi and not worry about new people, we have a big enough problem of all these different ways of Sikh that we should show by example of what Sikhi is. There are "hindu" sikh and even "christain" sikh next will be "muslim" sikh and all these are contradictory and a decay in Sikhi. Your the one with a problem of trying to teach things that you dont do. Do you live a GurSikh life? then how can you show people that they should do this and you dont. We dont need hypocrites like you trying to think you can "spread Sikhi."

that;s what i want to do - by example and helping anyone. Not by converting them by force or pushing it in their face, and asi mentioned before, this wouldnot be done for many years and after i have become amrit. I have said this many times.

You should spread sikhi in yourself and stop worrying about being some "savior" to the world.

Since you got alot to learn youll be 60 before you can even try.

"""""i'm no savior, i'm just someone who wants to spread guru ji's wonderful word""""""

in other words being a missionary like the jahovah witneesses are or the mormon missionaries or the dumb people who put stuff on your doorstep that turns into trash or fire starter paper

A missionary:

One who attempts to persuade or convert others to a particular program, doctrine, or set of principles; a propagandist.

    • 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.
