Sikh replaces Beckham as Adidas' poster boy :umm: Monday April 19 2004 11:23 IST PTI LONDON: He has replaced David Beckham as Adidas’s new poster boy. On the latest Adidas billboards, spread across London, he is sitting cross-legged; as if cooling his heals after a day’s work out, peeping over Londoners, tired and overworked, telling them the secrets of his unfailing energy. Fauja Singh, Britain’s most popular Sikh is 93, the oldest runner in Sunday’s London Marathon. He is threatening to break his own world record of 5.40 hours in the 90 plus age bracket that he set last year. While running Marathon races in London, New York and Toronto last year, he raised thou…

Sewa or selfless service for social welfare is at the heart of the Sikh faith. Embodying that principle is the Central Khalsa Orphanage here. The orphanage celebrated the completion of 100 years of service in November. Holding out a helping hand, bringing life on track, to children for whom the future looks distant and bleak, that's its credo. For its students, a new home enabling a new beginning... from the darkness of despair to a ray of hope for the future. Founded by the Chief Khalsa Diwan, a Sikh charitable trust, in 1904, the orphanage today is home to about 270 students, providing them not only with boarding and lodging, but an academic and cultural education. …

Everyone has their own rehat maryada because they want to be popular, have followers, have power, and make money and keep their businesses running. It was sickening to find out that the Amrit is not even givent he same way. There are deras where caste system runs high. Chooras and chamars are given Amrit in a separate bowl. There are different banis read by different jathas/taksals. These jathas and taksals make young Sikhs follow their mayadas, instead of the panth parvanat one. Why? Is this what Guru Ji wanted? How must Guru Ji be feeling? Does it not hurt Guru Ji's feelings? Just think about it before listening to someone and followign the rehat maryada given by them. …

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?" Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws." ============================================ A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men... The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?" ============================================ A man said to his wi…

To pupils and parents, most of whom are "tribals," or aboriginal peoples, the school is a ray of hope in a life of desperate poverty. "My family sent me here because they couldn't afford me," said Dyneswar Juang, a seventh-grader. "Here I get everything for free. I have a future." But human rights organizations in the eastern st…

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.
