Muslims generally like to boast that Islam is the fasted growing religion in the world but SIkhs tend to be humble when outsiders convert to Sikhi and do not boast about it. Should SIkhs continue to be humble about converts?

I think being humble is good , sure you can be humble and share those people's stories and that can help others to understand Sikhi is a universal faith and a path of love for all.

Yes Sikhs should stay humble about it. Because we can't make ourselves Sikhs, only Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji can. We can still share the greatness of Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji freeing people even to this day. If we do have pride, let us not have pride in ourselves, but rather our Guru.

Sikhs should do as much as they can to help genuine converts to Sikhi to make them feel welcome and guide them the protocols of doing things.

As for being humble no, Sikhs should push forward knowledable converts to Sikhi to the wider public to publise that non-sikhs are converting to Sikhi so that other people get inspired to look into the faith too.

Many converts to Islam tend to look at the stories of those who were non-muslims but then embracing Islam to help inspire them and similarly it works with any other faith people want to know how others did it to be welcome by the faith they want to join.

The problem is that there are 2 type of converts (the loyal geniune ones and the wondering lost types) the first is the type of convert you want who will give life long commitment the latter is the one you want to avoid because they are the type to jump from faith to faith or pick and chose what to follow from different faiths making up their own religion as they go along alot of 3H0 white so called Sikhs are like that but they are not even Sikhs they just pretend to be part time Sikhs when it suits them and thus we dont have any love for them as they have no love for real Sikhs or commitment to sikhi.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
