Recommended Posts

I AND OTHERS GOT INVOLVED IN A SILLY ARGUMENT ON THE OTHER THREAD. I THOUGHT WE SHOULD START AFRESH. WE ARE ALL BROS AND SISTERS AND SHOULD LEARN THAT SOMETIMES WE WILL DISAGREE. WHATEVER OUR AGENDAS OR POLITICAL GAMES, PUT THEM ASIDE AND BE POSITIVE.

LETS ALL GIVE OUR IDEAS HERE.

WHAT SHOULD WE DO IN FUTURE?

WHAT SHOULD WE DO NOW TO PREVENT THIS IN FUTURE?

papoo thinks that if we can show how important kesh are to us, then the government will think twice before they attack the dastaar or kirpan

pyara thinks that the goverment already know the importance of kesh to sikhs, the authorities know the importance of kesh to sikhs and even the media seem to know the importance of kesh to sikhs....pyara thinks maybe its the sikhs who dont know the importance of kesh grin.gif

pyara has been doing some thinking and thinks that maybe the sikh community in general dont appreciate the intensity of the beadbi of kesh....so the work needs to be done at grass root level....

pyara has said enough.....bye bye..

papoo agrees with pyara.

but papoo was listening to a radio station (i know sorry its manmat) and the presenter was talking about the cross issue with british airways. he said he doesnt see why muslims have to wear the vail, and referring to the turban he said he knows sikhs who dont wear turbans, so he doesnt see why we have to. so papoo thought education is needed. and the best form of education is through publicity.

true, true papoo...pyara cant disagree with that....however the fact that a person who does not keep kesh will call himself a sikhs causes confusion in the mainstream society...thats why the radio presenter and others get confused on the importance of kesh because "sikhs" look confused themselves on the importance of kesh....in a school classroom of 15 kids who call themselves sikhs, there might be one kid who keeps his kesh...the other 14 do the beadbi of kesh but still classify themselves as "sikhs"...... grin.gif perhaps we should also think about that too.....

    • Definitely the Guru Sahibs would be a heavier Scriptures to handle. Dasam Granth is more towards Bir Rass, Guru Gobind Singh showed his Greatness (of course, they would never say this) by separating his own Baania.  And the BIGGEST test of all?? Do we try and read Dasam Granth, Understand n show respect like we do to SGGS? Or... Do we QUESTION it? Guru Gobind Singh Ji is testing us. 
    • My wife will be going for an MRI scan next week but her Kara won’t physically come off.  Is there any way the mri scan can be done with the Kara still on?  The alternative is we will have to try to saw it off before the scan.  
    • was researching this and came back to this thread. Also found an older thread:    
    • Net pay after taxes. If you don't agree, think about this: If you were a trader and started off in China with silk that cost 100 rupees and came to India, and you had to pay total 800 rupees taxes at every small kingdom along the way, and then sold your goods for 1000 rupees, you'd have 100 rupees left, right? If your daswandh is on the gross, that's 100 rupees, meaning you have nothing left. Obviously, you owe only 10% of 100, not 10% of 1000. No, it's 10% before bills and other expenses. These expenses are not your expenses to earn money. They are consumption. If you are a business owner, you take out all expenses, including rent, shop electricity, cost of goods sold, advertising, and government taxes. Whatever is left is your profit and you owe 10% of that.  If you are an employee, you are also entitled to deduct the cost of earning money. That would be government taxes. Everything else is consumption.    
    • No, bro, it's simply not true that no one talks about Simran. Where did you hear that? Swingdon? The entire Sikh world talks about doing Simran, whether it's Maskeen ji, Giani Pinderpal Singh, Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi, or Sants. So what are you talking about? Agreed. Agreed. Well, if every bani were exactly the same, then why would Guru ji even write anything after writing Japji Sahib? We should all enjoy all the banis. No, Gurbani tells you to do Simran, but it's not just "the manual". Gurbani itself also has cleansing powers. I'm not saying not to do Simran. Do it. But Gurbani is not merely "the manual". Reading and singing Gurbani is spiritually helpful: ਪ੍ਰਭ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਬਦੁ ਸੁਭਾਖਿਆ ॥  ਗਾਵਹੁ ਸੁਣਹੁ ਪੜਹੁ ਨਿਤ ਭਾਈ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੈ ਤੂ ਰਾਖਿਆ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The Lord's Bani and the words are the best utterances. Ever sing hear and recite them, O brother and the Perfect Guru shall save thee. Pause. p611 Here Guru ji shows the importance of both Bani and Naam: ਆਇਓ ਸੁਨਨ ਪੜਨ ਕਉ ਬਾਣੀ ॥ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਿਸਾਰਿ ਲਗਹਿ ਅਨ ਲਾਲਚਿ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਜਨਮੁ ਪਰਾਣੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The mortal has come to hear and utter Bani. Forgetting the Name thou attached thyself to other desires. Vain is thy life, O mortal. Pause. p1219 Are there any house manuals that say to read and sing the house manual?
