thank u so much Mkaur and dsingh!=)

there is no prob with the powerpoint either.

maybe off topic but dsingh...i was wondering about how long it took u to make this powerpoint? the thing is some of the words (like khota and bander lol) we are trying not to teach to the kids for obvious reasons rolleyes.gif . we have vocab words which are related to gursikh lifestyle and/or will help children relate to the words and sounds better. i am hasten to ask u to do this but ...do u think u would be able to make a powerpoint like that with the pictures(words) we use?

i would love to learn how u made the pwerpoint though...is it simple or bit complicated? i have learned to do this stuff like three yrs ago but havent put it to use thus ;) if u dont have time, i would appreciate if i could get a lil tutorial on it or just written steps!( i can follow writtn directions thank god! lol)

thank u again! great seva :)

I made it so long ago that I can't remember how long it took. But yes panji, if I were to do it again there is a lot I would do different. I'm real busy at the mo but will try and update it to make it more children friendly. I wouldn't worry about bandar and khota though, I just saw them as animals, and I thought children usually learn animals quickly (from some reason) - that is why I chose them. Maybe you can suggest what I should use as examples for the letters next time. If and when I do a next one I will try and use cartoonish images for this time. Kids prefer that.

Like I said. Let us know what words you think would be better to use. It isn't too hard once you get started but can be a bit monotonous.

I just found this when I was rummaging around for the tutorial. It may help you teach.

    • Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.
    • You're confusing two different things: One is merely adding starch to a turban to get a certain feel to the fabric. The other is tying your turban once and taking it off like a hat. It is this that people have a problem with. What's wrong with it is that Rehit says to tie your turban afresh every time. If you ask, "Where is that written?", it's written in Bhai Nand Lal ji's Rehitnama. @ipledgeblue didn't just make it up. Umm, no, bro. We're not evangelical Christians like President George W Bush of the US claiming to "talk to God" who told him to invade Iraq. "Speaking to him directly" basically ends up being doing whatever you feel like with the excuse that Guru ji told you to do it. If you still want to take your turban off like a hat, feel free to do so, but don't claim that it's Rehit.
    • You don't need to wear either a pag or dumalla in the gym. You can simply wear a meter or 1.5m small turban (gol pagg or round turban). It doesn't come off.
    • The reason you don't see anything wrong with it is because like a fish in water, you grew up in Western culture and imbibed it fully. It's very difficult to for parents to inculcate traditional culture while in the West. The reason there is a problem is because a kiss between a man and wife is a sexual act (I didn't say it's coitus, but it's still sexual.) By contrast a kiss between a mother and a child, for example, is not sexual. And in our culture, sexual acts are not allowed in public. Goras do allow it. And that's also the reason they have gay pride parades now with people walking around naked with children in attendance and so forth.
