I've just been watching a programme on BBC2 now (9pm - 10pm) http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/programmes/my...oes/index.shtml The programme was fantastic It showed the ancient lost Tibetan Kingdom made in Stone - and how it was like a living Paradise. The scenary (Himalayas, Tibet and Nepal) = mind blowing ... i was just thinking "Waheguroo, Waheguroo, Waheguroo, Dhan Waheguroo... Teri Kudrat Kau Kurbaan" :umm: In the ending of the programme the documentary presenter said: :cool: Again i was thinking "Waheguroo, Waheguroo, Waheguroo, Dhan Waheguroo... Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee!!!!!!" Guru Jee says (Ang 323) Gauree, Kabeer Jee: jo jan parmit parman jaanaa…

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH Guru Pyareyo, The topic which I am going to discuss with you might feel you strange but I want to get the sugeestions of yours that is that what I feel is same as you or I am thinking wrong ? I feel very sorri when I see the Gurbani printed on posters and letters goes into dustbin or used somewhere else. I am not talking about just Gurbani even the photos of the GURU SAHIBS and Sikh religious symbols like khanda and others are printed on the posters, newspapers, wedding cards and magazines. Who are responsible for this action? We people who read these papers and then forget to take care of that by keeping it at the safe …

waheguru ji kekhalsa, waheguru ji ke fateh Pyare jio, this is a personal posting looking at points made on another thread by Veer Sikhi for Life. It is not meant to be towards any indivdual or group. As young Sikhs, many of us have kept our kesh and come into sikhi. We have a certian outlook on sikhi. We are not caught in the dogma of groupism or tribalistic tendancies as many youths who have grown up in sikhi, and just accepted what their parents said. I think we all want sikhi to flourish and want a strong Guru Khalsa Panth. Such is the nature of this tribalism in sikhs, that it effects its every pore in our punjabi society. It is ingrained in our gurdwaras, panth…

Hello everyone, nice to post here again. Been gone for a while at my friends. Learning to becoming a sikh has proved to be an interesting venture. I haven't told my mom yet that i have become a sikh, however, in the new year i am going to break the silence and tell all. Considering that she i a avid JW, it's not going to go down well with here, but a true Sikh doesnt hesitate nor give in to other people. I also haven't gone to the Sikh temple yet, i want to meet someone else that is a sikh that will give me a few words or advice before i go in. I will probably wite a letter to the temple asking for a someone to meet me first. I like to go with someone else. Anyways i …

Jaipur's angel of mercy is a phone call away (FEATURE): [india News]: Jaipur, Feb 6 : A phone call, even at the dead of night, is all it takes for Kanwaljeet Singh to send his ambulance to ferry any sick person to hospital - for free. Inspired by the help people in distant Dehradun provided when his then three-year-old son met with an accident in 1996, Kanwaljeet Singh and his wife Manjeet Kaur decided to do something unique to serve society. Thus was born the hospital service that is now the talk of Jaipur. It is already eight years old now, and Kanwaljeet Singh, a 48-year-old bank executive, is widely known here as the "van wale Sardarji" (the Sikh with a van). "So…

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.
