At the end of the last century, wasn't there an emphasis for men to be clean shaven and look like boys?

What influence did this have on the mindset of men?

Firstly, I think British school food should be neutral without any sacred food being served. Also please consider this topic for other countries which may have this issue, possibly Australia? Obviously this isn't a solution for schools in islamic countries!

However, as we know, some schools are forcing Halal meat.

So why don't we do a positive spin on this?

Since some schools are forcing sacred food from one religion onto students. Then why not demand langar in these schools as sikhs require their own sacred food in cases where neutral food is not available? We should seriously ask for this demand, as sacred food should not only be available for one minority.

Would be good if there was some kind of SACRED FOOD ACT / LAW  or AGREEMENT.

And since langar should not be commercial, it should be served by a sikh volunteer and should also be free, obviously open to donations. I think organisations like SWAT already have the infrastructure in place for serving langar in public. Would local gurdwaras be able to help and provide langar and volunteers for this?

The positive thing about this is that concept of langar gets out more in public, and educates young learning minds about sikhi traditions and community kitchens. And obviously anyone can partake of langar as it's free.

It would also be good if we can add jhatka langar in as well. Outside of Gurudwara jhatka langar mahaprasad is allowed. Obviously would need Singhs who knows jhatka rehit to help out in this

CAN WE HAVE SOMETHING TEMPORARY IN PLACE before the start of the NEW ACADEMIC YEAR in SEPTEMBER 2018? How can we get this out there?

thanks for the info, you should also post on Reddit the community needs these resources.

They are making fool of themselves.First they clear the movie and also appreciating it.then retract their statement few weeks before the release of the movie call for a ban .Whats going on?why SGPC are  so confused .

sgpc is always confused. SGPC has been confused since it was created during Firanghi RAAJ! 

sgpc is a committee, it is not Guru and is not the panth! 

It has too much power since colonialism.

Even calling it Shiromani is an insult.

I think Sikhs need to grasp the concept of 'Indic' (which plays a big part in their heritage - although it is not the be all and end all) and not equate this too 'Hinduism', which (to me) looks like another modern colonial era construct (like 'Sikhism')? 

hanji it is a colonial construct

hindu is the national identity, not hinduism.

Ok I have created https://www.reddit.com/r/SikhAwareness/

If anyone wants to help out then please create a Reddit account.

Make a Reddit account(s) first so I can make you admin(s). You can still be an admin using a new account, just can't create new SubReddits.

I even saw that Basics of Sikhi seem to have a private one, maybe they are/were experimenting with Reddit as well.

Check this thread out, it has a lot of people who became sikhs.

To open a new subreddit, I think you need to be using Reddit for a while. Let me know if I can help at all.

yes so would I !

I have been going on the Sikh subreddit on Reddit. It is run by american sikhs and get a lot of non-sikh viewers and posts as well. Some external people interested in sikhi or even becoming sikhs post too!

There needs to be more sikhi subreddit forums on there, at the moment it's way too concentrated, and I am suggesting sikhawareness make one on there.

There are many curious people from around the world on there.

But my idea is not to have a separate forum on there, and instead just feed sikhawareness threads into a sikhawareness subreddit, this way minimal resources are required to manage the subreddit. I am sure this will also increase sikhawareness guests or member. Have a look at the r/sikh subreddit to get an idea how things are like on there.

hey, if anyone wants to see repeats they are now on Star Plus, this is especially good for those who don't have access to Life OK, for example Virgin Media customers.

Most likely, many Rajputs consider Jatts to be Shudar too.

 

Bhul chuk maaf

actually i know some (or many?) sikh rajputs are ok with marrying sikh jatts, as in through arranged marriage and not talking about any of this dating business.

My Mamma was offered a rishta from Rajput family decades ago in uk. 

It seems more likely for Rajput sikhs to see it ok to marry jatts than jatts see it to marry Rajputs.

Still don't understand why they had to go to Pak to get weapons, they cannot buy them in India?

Gyani Sant Singh Maskeen went into a lot of detail in this topic:

LOL

sikh panth and then the countless hindu panths, are reduced to mere religions in your statement?

what about those who do dance-style gatka instead of puraatan shastar vidiya?

After partition of India i think these cross overs dissapeared in India. They converted fully and stayed in India or went to Pakistan and became muslims...

what about Bhai Mardana's descendants and other punjabi muslims who visit gurdwaras in Pakistan?

I will have to through this whole thread, I don't think I know the meaning for most of these. Will Whatsapp some punjabis and see what they think lol

Is this topic publicly  viewable?

It's on Life OK, does this hurt it's ratings?

To start getting rid of inferiority complex, we first must not stop wearing turbans - removing turbans gets apney into follow the gora like a gulam sheep pehd chaal.

who chooses the panj piyaray, and how do we know they are not playing dress-up bana, ie they just wear the bana and shastar but have no training and therefore are not really following rehit anyway?
