Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!! In collage today we studied about death penalties, for terrorists and people who break the law. And i just wanted to know when is it suitable for us Sikhs to do such thing like kill someone, or punishing someone, or should we forgive? And if we should then what punishment should we give if 1) they have done something wrong to us. 2) done something to insult someone’s Sikhi. <BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"> IT’S FUNNY BECAUSE THESE BASIC THINGS I THOUGHT I KNEW, BUT I REALLY HAD TO THINK ABOUT IT! AND FOUND OUT I DONT! IM SORRY IF I HAVE WORDED IT WRONG…

Pir Bhikhan Shah Heralds the Birth of a Prophet The Parkash of Guru Gobind Singh Ji Pir Bhikhan Shah was a devout Muslim religious leader. He lived in village Thaska in District Karnal (now in Haryana). He was a Sayyid (a descendent of Hazrat Muhammed), which commands great respect among Muslims. Every day this man of God would do Sijda (bowing) towards Mecca in West. But one day, in the cold month of Poh, he bowed with profound reverence toward the East. His followers accosted him, and asked the reason for not bowing in the Qiblah (the direction of Mecca). The Peer replied that a beloved of Allah has been born in the East who will destroy evil and fight for truth an…

Vaheguru ji ka khalsa Vaheguru ji ki fateh Many of talk about our Nation (Sikh Nation) and some refer to it as the Panth as well. But I dont believe we (myself included) have a very good understanding of what this means and includes. Recently in some posts some people have mentioned things to do with the calendar changes and how 'this was our one chance to become a seperate nation', or 'this would show that we are a seperate nation'. I think such comments are just short of being offensive to Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Lets stop and think about the creation of the Khalsa, the Khalsa Nation. Guru Ji in HIS wisdom made the Khalsa totally unique. He gave them a unique way of li…

The executive committee of the SGPC today approved radical changes in the Nanakshahi calendar amid voices of dissent raised by three of the 15-member strong SGPC executive and opposition put up by a number of Sikh bodies. The Nanakshahi calendar, which was adopted by the SGPC in 2003 after having been approved by Akal Takht, will almost resemble the Bikrami calendar if the changes approved by the executive were implemented. The proposed changes suggested by the SGPC chief Avtar Singh and the orthodox Sikh organisations led by the Damdami Taksal chief, Harnam Singh, however, will come into force as and when these were endorsed by Akal Takht Jathedar Giani Gurbachan Singh…

The Parliament of World’s Religions is a kind of smorgasboard of all religions where all religions, faiths and organisations of spiritual ways of life meet every five years. After being successfully held in South Africa and five years ago in Barcelona, the third consecutive event concluded on 9 December in Melbourne, Australia. As the year 2009 comes to a close, I thought it would be useful to summarise the feedback received from some organizations and prominent individuals who attended this global event. No doubt, detailed de-briefings about the numerous papers presented would follow e.g. The World Sikh Council’s press release of 13 December, promises a related publicat…

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.
