Losing belief in Waheguru - don't know what to do? 1 2 3
by Guest Confused- 25 replies
- 6.6k views
Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I was hoping I could receive some help for a problem I've been having for a while now.. I was fortunate enough to take Amrit a couple of months ago and I had been wanting to for a year or so. However since a couple of weeks, everytime I try to do Simran or read Gurbani, my mann keeps coming up with things like "Does God even exist?" "Why am I doing this?" and it's gotten really bad. At first I ignored it, then it got worse, I tried to explain using the science argument but it still kept talking. Then I explained that everything about Sikhi proves it. Then it kept saying "What if none of that is real?" which is pretty dumb be…

Sikh Channel
by Guest Gupt- 1 reply
- 317 views
We've seen over the passed few days an appeal to keep Sikh Channel functioning and for people to set up direct debits as a way of contributing/sewa. As with everything we do, we should do some due diligence checks before parting with any money. Mr Davinder Singh Bal's records at Companies House and the Solicitors Regulation Authority show he has a potted history of being involved in companies that have gone into liquidation. Kam (the presenter and person named as in charge) doesn't appear on Companies House as a director of Sikh Channel CIC. It's all well and good to support Sikh ventures but one should be mindful of what's actually going on and is Sikh Channel…

Deist Sikhs and an experiment on prayer
by Guest DumbIdiotBanda- 1 reply
- 242 views
WJKK WJKF I was scrolling through the sikh reddit the other day and found this So... a bit weird isn't it? I have been watching this man's podcast and it quite honestly makes a lot of sense, except when it doesn't. From a previous question to the sangat, I came to the informed conclusion from Gurbani that Reincarnation is a state of mind as well as an actual occurance, and that is one thing I will have to take on faith. But this seems quiet odd, knowing that a literal study on prayer has been published and it has results that were negative. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efficacy_of_prayer I read this wikipedia ar…

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji ki Fateh Note: I will not answer any replies. So this issue really killed my nerves.I ts about the Singh AND Kaur, worldwide,but mostly from India, which date/try to make relationships through chatting on Instagram. About two or three years ago, I was using Instagram (Kaal) like many people do. I OFTEN got text messages of "AMRITDHAARI" (looking?) Singh's, which tried to build a relationship with me. I sometimes replied to some. After doing some normal chit chat, They said things like I love you, stay with me etc ...There were times where I got into it. Because I hadn't the Sojhi, and Sumat, which satguru Ji ga…

How to prove to myself god exists

- 242 views
VJKK VJKF Sangat Ji, I apologize for the amount of posting I have been doing and realize its probably getting annoying, but I have just one massive issue that I need to resolve before signing off for a month or so. How the hell do I prove to myself god is real?? As mentioned the Help with Kaam Post I had a run in with Atheism a while ago and the color it stained me just wont rub off. This uncertainty is getting me nervous and I don't know how to stop it. I had a point where my nitnem was regular with lots of kirtan added and that was absolute Chardikala but I became too lenient and started loosing my fear of god. If anyone on this forum is an Ex Atheist please…

Questions about BJJ and other martial arts and sikhi
by Guest DumbIdiotBanda- 1 reply
- 467 views
VJKK VJKF I am planning on enrolling in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes soon. I have a few questions about how I could enrol while planning on taking Amrit. How would I keep rehit of the kakkars while practising my skills without hurting my opponent in the gym? Back when I was younger I enrolled in Taekwondo and they usually told me to take off my kara so I would not hurt my opponent while sparring. Currently my only solution is keeping my kara and a small kard or kirpan in my Kes, but this also raises another question. If I tied a normal or commando style patka, they are quite stable, but my kakkars would probably rip the cloth. I’m not going to wear a Dumala unles…

West Midlands Police = enemy of the Sikh nation 1 2 3 4

Something is seriously SERIOUSLY wrong with West Midlands Police at the highest level. It is abundantly clear that they are doing the Indian Government and Punjab Police's evil bidding on their behalf on these shores. I salute those young Sikhs that bravely confronted them at the Handsworth Nagar Kirtan a few months ago and threw them out of local Gurdwaras where they were attempting to go on a recruitment campaign but........buried yesterday on one of the Charity Commission's online webpages was truly disturbing news. The Charity Commission stated that West Midlands police approached the charity commission around October last year (around the same time that the Indian G…
