Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Saadh sangat jee, in the loving memory and rememberance of the three Chardikala GurSikhs Bhai Charanjeet Singh Ji, Bhai Parminder Singh Ji and Rena Kaur Bhenji who passed away in a car accident, we humbly request our forum members not to use this section for a while. We are proud of those amazing Gurmukhs and hope that everyone can follow their example, therefore we do not mourn their deaths as Sikhi believes in submitting before the Divine Will of Waheguru. Let us all introspect ourselves and our lives, and realize that life is too short. Let us all start reciting bani and start doing naam simran. With this in mind, we…

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh Shaheedi Immortality II : The Second Rising "Sir Jave Ta Jave Mera Sikhi Sidhak Na Jave" (if I die then so be it, but may my faith in Sikhi remain firm) This year commemorates the 20th anniversary of the attack on the most holiest Sikh shrine Sri Darbar Sahib (The Golden Temple) Amritsar along with 40 historical Sikh Shrines and the November massacres, which left thousands dead, wounded, destroyed and homeless. As these events fade from public memory, it is the victims that continue to grieve with their hopes of securing justice from the Indian state, and loved ones returning, rapidly eroding. A whole generation of Sikh …

Outrage over Sikh turban ban By staff writers May 12, 2004 A SIKH man who was asked to remove his turban in an Adelaide hotel dining room will lodge a discrimination complaint.

Mr Johal said he was asked by hotel staff to remove his turban but explained he could not do so, for religious reasons. When staff insisted he remove it, Mr Johal asked to see the hotel manager, but was met with a similar response. Mr Johal, who is secretary of the Riverland Sikh Society in South Australia, said he had…

Does anyone have a relatively big jpg of it? I am trying to put a shirt together and would like to print it out and iron it on but I figure I would need a jpg much bigger than the sizes Im currently finding. Thanks in advance!!

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.
