Gurfateh!! I was just searching the net for some info on Akhand Kirtani Jatha and came across this site: http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/sikhism/akha.html The site is maintained by a Christian organisation, and they've got a fair amount of info on all religions, but was just reading what they have on Akhand Kirtani Jatha and there's the following statement : "They also believe in a different Khalsa initiation ceremony, wherein the five beloved ones, or five Gursikhs place their right hand on the neophyte's head and meditatively repeat the mantra "Vahiguru", revolving around the innitiate for five or so minutes." I didn't have amrit with Akhand Kirtani Jatha,…

Okay.. this is very hard for me to explain.. but i will try.. this is general topic to all members... Reading this topic Hair color etc.. made me to open this thread. There are something that many ppls would like to do but they can't do it because they think that "It might not be allowed in sikhi." Now, your mind says it 100% fine to do and you don't feel uncomfortable doing it but than you hear from someone that it's not fine and its not okay to do it according to sikhe etc.. That peson is certainly in tough spot ! Now i would say.. these days lots of youths do stuff because they hear/read that its not okay in sikhi rather than their mind speaks for them. Following st…

Yeah Dhadi and Kaweshria are known for joking around now and then. -
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.
