Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

First of all, i wanna thank Gurujee for blessing me with kes and daari and the courage to keep them. i hope and pray that the day comes soon when i can start wearing a dastaar on a regular and daily basis. i sincerely hope and whole heartedly pray that Gurujee blesses me with Amrit someday really soon in the very near future. i must also point out that the person who is my inspiration is the one who we know on this forum as Gurpreet Singh. We both are born into non-Sikh families, and when i realized that he had started keeping kes and daari, Gurujee blessed me as well with the same inspiration and courage.

i must however say something. Living in a place like Oklahoma where non-whites are not always very happy, it does get hard to live the way nature has made u. There have been times when my feet seemed to be slipping, and the manmukh inside me would force me to go to a barber or to shave my beard off. Believe it or not, Gurujee would place events in place in such a mysterious way that i wouldn't be able to do what the manmukh inside me told me to. The love and encouragement that u all have blessed me with has indeed acted as a thunderbolt and has blasted away a lot of negativity from inside of me.

i do not have sangat over here, but i must say that the Sikhs over here were really happy when they came to know about my new look and the reason behind it. Two of them helped in tying the turban which u all have seen in the picture. Another Sikh friend of mine who is in New Jersey now and happens to be a mona is slowly getting back on track aft

er being enchanted by the speeches of Sant Jarnail Singh Jee Khalsa Bhindranwale which he listens to. The fact that he too is returning to Sikhi also acted as a big inspiration for me.

i must thank my dear brother Vicky Singh who sent Bhai Rama Singh Jee's book In search of the True Guru. i read less than half of this book and could not get a hair cut or shave any more (i know i have been a slacker in posting the summaries :@ , u have full right to be mad at me ^_^ and i shall post more soon whenever Gurujee wills so :@ ).

Dhoor jee and Arash jee, we all listen to sakhis of great people and what brought them to Sikhi. i m not anywhere close to all those great personalities. i just say i was blessed to get into Sikhi. i dont think anyone chooses Sikhi. Its not a commodity but rather a blessing. i feel really fortunate for having been blessed. And for the youth of Punjab who have started cutting their hair, we all can only do ardas. Being born in a Hindu family, raised in a Muslim country in the middle east for around 18 years of my life, and living in a strong Christian environment in the US for the past 5 and a half years or so, with my hand on my heart and due respect to all above mentioned religions, i promise everyone that there is nothing that can be remotely compared to Sikhi. Sikhs who are unaware of their heritage, as well as non-Sikhs who have never come across Sikh history have been astonished when they come to know about the smallest bit regarding Sikhi.

i dunno how much o

f an inspiration i am or ever can be. i still get very scared sometimes imaginning what if at some point i have to lose this identity due to worldly pressures. But then i beg Gurujee to hold my hand strongly and that i'd rather stop breathing rather than losing my identity. i can't even describe how it feels. And when i was wearing the dastaar, it felt a zillion times better. Its hard to put it into words.

Come my brothers and sisters! Let us all UNITE at the feet of Guru Sahib. Let us forget our small and petty and senseless differences. Let us inspire each other to be Khalsa of Guru Gobind Singh. Let us live and continue this tradition of the Khalsa which our Beloved Guru Gobind Singh established.

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Vaheguru jee ka Khalsa Vaheguru jee kee fateh!

Veer Rochak Malang has forced me to join this forum and post a reply. Veer Rochak jeeo, accept my heartiest congratulations for adopting the Sikhi Saroop. Looking at your two pictures, one sees a sea of difference.

Looking at your picture in Sikhi saroop gave me great happiness. There is no doubt you were destined to be a Sardar. Guru Gobind Singh jee has given his Khalsa Sardaariyaan and I am glad that you have been chosen to share the Sardaaree that Guru Sahib has bestowed on his Khalsa.

I got more impressed when I found out from your last post under this thread that you live in Oklahoma, USA. It is a great effort on your part to keep Sikhi saroop in that murky part of the world. I call it murky because after 9/11, Sikhs have been targeted by misguided undamentalists and you kept Sikhi saroop against all such odds. Verily, you have kirpa of Guru Sahib on you.

Saaday laayak koi sewa hovay ta zaroor dasnee.

Daas,

Kulbir Singh

    • I was searching igurbani.com which gives correct pronunciation of Gurbani. I can’t remember all of it at once. I guess it relies on more practice, like more Sehaj Paths. The meaning becomes clearer. I have noticed slight variants in it. This could be because it’s written in old Punjabi.  
    • Veer Manpreet Singh, a lay preacher, claims that -Sikhs aren't supposed to worship Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We are only supposed to worship God as is written in Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We only "revere" Guru Granth Sahib ji.     He says a lot of other things in this video, some are good refutations of Hindu superstitions, but the reformers often go too far. Anyways, what he is saying about not worshipping Guru Granth Sahib ji is totally wrong. The reason is Guru Granth Sahib ji is Guru. Guru is Satguru. Satguru is God. We worship God. Therefore, we also worship Satguru (Guru Granth Sahib ji).   There are innumerable verses in Gurbani equating God and Guru. ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਡੁਬਦਾ ਲਏ ਤਰਾਇ ॥੨॥ The Guru is the Supreme Lord and the Transcendent Master. The Guru floats (saves) the drowning one. p49   ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਏਕੋ ਜਾਣੁ ॥ Know the Guru and God as One. p864   ਗੁਰ ਨਾਲਿ ਤੁਲਿ ਨ ਲਗਈ ਖੋਜਿ ਡਿਠਾ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੰਡੁ ॥ There is no one at par with the Guru. I have searched and seen the whole universe. p49 (If the Guru is the greatest in the whole universe, shouldn't we worship the Guru?)   I'd like to ask Manpreet Singh what is worship? Any reasonable definition would include obeisance, remembrance, and praise. Those are exactly the same things Gurbani says to do regarding Guru! Remembrance and obeisance: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਅਪਨਾ ਸਦ ਸਦਾ ਸਮ੍ਹਾਰੇ ॥ Ever, ever, I think of the True Guru, ਗੁਰ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਕੇਸ ਸੰਗਿ ਝਾਰੇ ॥੧॥ and the Guru's feet I brush with my head's hair. p387   Praise: ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਆਪਿ ॥ The Guru himself is the transcendent Lord and the supreme master. ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਜਾਪਿ ॥੪॥੧੬॥੬੭॥ Throughout the eight watches of the day, O Nanak meditate thou on the Guru. p387   In fact, Gurbani says the way to find God is to worship (puja) of Guru: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਧੋਇ ਧੋਇ ਪੂਜਹੁ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਲਹੁ ਰੇ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Washing and bathing the True Guru's feet, worship thou them. In this way thou shall obtain my Lord Master. Pause. p1118   Could it be any clearer that we are to worship Guru ji?
    • Bro, reciting a shorter Chaupai Sahib is hardly "anti-Dasam". It's fine to argue that the longer Chaupai is more traditional, but the short one isn't anti-Dasam. That's like claiming shorter Rehras is anti-Guru Granth Sahib ji just because there are fewer selections from Guru Granth Sahib. It might not be traditional, but it's not anti-Guru Granth Sahib. I prefer the longer versions, but let's not exaggerate. Every tradition has a slightly different Rehras version. Nanaksar vs Taksal vs Nihangs and so on. The basic template for Rehras is at the beginning of Guru Granth Sahib ji. Later, Chaupai Sahib was added and Anand Sahib always follows as the end of a process. Then some sangats added more saloks to start Rehras and others were added at the end. Some additional selections from Dasam Bani were also added, but it wasn't the same ones for every sangat. The important thing is to not hate on each other for these variations.
    • Umm, so you're upset that this jatha did Chaupai the same way it's being done at Harimandar Sahib for 100 years? Shouldn't you be upset at the manager of Darbar Sahib? I'm not saying that Sikhs who are aware of certain issues shouldn't do the longer Chaupai, but there are only so many battles you can fight. Instead of calling some jatha traitors because they're doing the (for better or worse) "standard" Chauapai published by the SGPC, it would be better to change things from the central point. You can't fault the average Sikh for picking up the average Gutka and doing paath.
    • It's the same here in Toronto. Alot of the gudwaras here are political orientated and get tons of funding from the government-probably want them stay hush hush with all the BS that has been happening with India.  These guys are skewing gurbani. A complaint was sent to a ragi singh a couple of days ago in regards to a hukamnama.
