I saw the videos. This is amazing. Really amazing ! We should all learn this .

While people in punjab might not be running around naked. We are infected with an epidemic of drug-addiction, prostitution, alocholism and youth giving up sikhi. We should first improve the condition of our home and then look outside. The biharis and orissans that your uncle ji is helping , are immigrating to punjab and making punjab even more poor.

I agree, that such ppl provide so much aid. what if they did the samething with the same motivitation to improve the life-style in punjab ?

rudra shakti : lol all this mythology stuff, i find it very hard to believe. well rudra according to mythology was the tears of shiva that fell and became hard, and became like stone. u can see some people in india wearing it ! as a talisman. theres no this and that shakti .. theres only bhakti and in bhakti is all the shakti.

If you try to understand you will be confused, this is the understanding that comes without thinking. and by the way that was an interesting post about the baba throwing malay in fire.

agreed, that is the true philosophy of life, but I yearn to acheive it as per sikhi rules.

Aghoriz Rulez

some aghori babas will curse... just to avoid attention and say obsceneties.

They are a group of yogis. They are Naths, Aghoris. I m not sure in to the detail, but I think they worship skulls, ... and non-sense things. They might have a lot of siddhis, they do tapsya to get it. Sure, they are followers of God. so you want to be an aghori baba now?

difficult question. Now if I were you, I would try to be a little bit less self-fish. So do let us know what you decided to do.

No fear of God. No fear of Guru ! I would be scared to talk like this on any religion

I understand the posts made by deepsingh and xyitol. Its really a hard question. But again I want to point out that it is NOT JUST ANYONE will put a gatra. Only a person who commits himself to Guru ji will put a gatra. There is another story that if a person who has put gatra, then again removes it and starts doing all the things which are opposite to Gurmat. I know so many people in my life who are like this ! So the question of wether a person must marry amritdhari OR shouldnt distinguish, is very hard to answer. After reading several posts made and surfing the net. I have come to the conclusion that there is no hard and fast rule wether the person to whom we marry should be amritdhari or non-amritdhari. You can meet a girl who does good kirtan, who is very devout sikh .. and she has the potential of being amritdhari, then that person u can marry. OR you can meet a girl who does vedbai of hair.. i dont think this person can qualify to be married with.

If this is the case then why at some place in the SGPC maryada it is said "If you are amritdhari , it is your duty to get your spouse baptised as well" ? This clearly shows that at thetime of marriage one of the person must be amritdhari and the other non-amritdhari. secondly, I know a girl , she is brilliantly gursikh. and one of her parent is non-amritdhari. Lastly, I will make sure I marry an amritdhari .. cos if she is non-amritdhari, i really cant cope with her if she waxes and does her eyebrows, thats the cheif concern i got when it comes to marrying non-amritdhari.

agreed... Good point ! I think we can quote as "Mahalla #" or if its by a bhagat, then the name of the bhagat with the page no. included.

AGREED 100% + 1%.

Just remember one thing. Quality of path done is more important than quantity of paath done. Do it SLOW AND STEADILY, ABSORBING EACH VERSE . If you can absorb even one verse from sukhmani sahib in ur mind, it will give you great bliss. So I say do it SLOW AND STEADY. Remember SLOW AND STEADY wins the race. Not the person who recites like a machine.

"Who you gonna call!?........Ghostbusters!"

there are no sants here. i live alone.

can anyone comment on how authentic these thoughts might be?

There are some people who take the path of santlihood/meditation/simran to reach the Truth and there are other people who take the path of seva for khalsa panth/shaheedi etc. Are the two paths different? how do they relate to one another and how do the people who follow this path relate to one another? There are some people who involve more into politics.

recently there was a topic about no mention of brahmgyani women in Khalsa Panth. I dont which forum it was posted in, but this is something that I found on the internet. A story of a True Khalsa Woman ! http://dedicatedkaurs.blogspot.com/2006/08...r-kaur-jee.html

Thanks veer ji, Talking about hair, I am reminded of a incident which I saw in the Malton Gurudwara at Toronto. I am sure N3O S!ngh ji knows about this Gurudwara, since it is in Toronto and very close to the Paerson intl airport. As I was sitting in the Gurudwara, I saw a lady coming in , she had a chin with thick beard and the hair must be 2 inches long. Seeing this I thought to myself how great and strong this lady must have been who followed the bhana of waheguru meetha kar ke. Its very difficult to be pure gursikhs like her. As for asking the message question on Tapoban, .. Tapoban is AKJ, while I do respect AKJ a lot.. I feel that they are a little bit extreme-sided, so the response I may get will also be extreme sided. For example AKJ people dont drink tea, they think it is nasha. Dont get me wrong.. I have respect for AKJ.
