I responded with, quote " why get caught up on ones name? Are we not supposed to get rid of attachment? Such as 'self identity' or 'ego'. She then replied with quote "That's another view on it - thank you for sharing your thoughts. For many of us it's about courtesy and showing each other respect." It got me thinking are we now in situation, where we think we know better than the teachings of G…

I have been reading 1-4 shabads a day and fully understanding the shabad before moving on. I am currently on ang 33 and plan to spend a few years to complete the sehaj path.

I think Sikhi is much stronger in the west rather than India. In India they follow Sikhi because of their ancestors whilst in the west they actually choose to become Sikhs.

@mods I'm not sure if this violates the forum rules. Please feel free to remove/alter if required. This is not a promotional post and I'm not affiliated with stack exchange. I've just submitted a proposal to them. Satsriakal people! I've created a proposal at stack exchange( the largest question/answer website on the web, similar to quora) to start a sub site devoted to Sikhism where people can post questions and receive answers from others. I request everyone to please follow the site to keep it active so that it can be pushed to the next stage(beta)and isn't deleted. Please click "follow" at the below link: https://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/122…

Please listen to katha of Sarbloh Granth by Gurwinder Singh nangli at YouTube channel Sri sarbloh tv. It is an amazing granth and it's sad that today's panth does very less paath of this amazing gurbani. Damdami Taksal itihaas mentions Baba Banda Singh Bahadar doing seva of writing Sarbloh Granth birs. Shaheed Baba Gurbaksh Singh had a Sarbloh Granth bir of his own which was lost in early 20th century.

video of Guru Nanak Dev Jis fields at Kartarpur sahib, Guru Nanak Dev ji worked on these fields after he finished his udasis and settled at Kartarpur. Also the khoo that guru ji used to water his crops. I think because of the mass expansion and construction a lot of this is probably gone now https://youtu.be/-8ZWfhlabP0

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.
