What a joke. Sitting on a lion rug signifies letting go of ego and what does wearing a small kirpan around the neck signify? Secular-quasi religious fanatics will take Sikhs away from wearing 5 kakkar and rehat but will drive people toward brahmins mat.

Sitting on lion skin scares animals away. People that have a garden and its being attacked by birds, will kill a crow and hang it up. The same is done with giddars (coyotes) in farm land with cows and other animals. Its a common practice done in many parts of the world.

Practical reasons make sense but found symbolic meaning after speaking to senior gurmukh especially after coming across this picture of sant mani singh ji sitting on tiger skin rug indoors:

  Might delay Sikhs becoming a minority in Punjab for a few more years. Do these students actually study and work in a related field after their course or is it purely for immigration?

  Good website. Could they post the complete Sri Sarbloh Granth. I can’t find all of it online.

  Thanks for this. It combines the four approved sources (Guru Granth Sahib ji, Dasam Granth Sahib, Bhai Gurdas ji (both Vaar and Kabitt), and Bhai Nand Lal ji in one place. The English translation is the Sant Singh Khalsa and the Punjabi is the Principal Sahib Singh. These aren't that great, but at least they are better than some even worse ones floating around these days.
