Its a festival of Sisters...and Sisters are there in every religion... Hmmm, y give only 1 day in a year to celebrate da relationship btn sister and brother ? wht about da other 364 1/4 days ? If so then it is a mere ritual. A copy of bhamanism. I remember during partition and during da time of da british, in order to save themselves, mothers and sisters forgot their sons n' brothers ! They where scared for their lives because if they said that so and so was their son they'd be killed, hence they forgot the love. Scared to die ah ? When ur sister gets married, their love goes to the husband n' kids, da love they had 4 you is not da same. This is of course natural. So u say the relationship is great, i beg to differ. Guru Nanak says that in delusion r all our relations.

INKLAB ZINDABAD, ZINDABAD, ZINDABAD !!!!!!

Thxs for posting mate. Beautiful story, may be if God wills i will visit Makindu soon.

Sat sri Akal, I've pasted something intresting from www.sikhnet.com below: "wahegurujikakhalsawahegurujikifateh!!!!! are sikhs aware that guru nanak, in his udasian, come as far as africa? a small settlement a hundred miles from kampala, uganda, is named 'Bamu Nanika' which the locals there revere for it's spiritual powers. they say that a holy man, not one of their own, sat on a certain spot there and meditated. the spot is covered in a bark-like material and not shown to anyone. prayers are done in their traditional way. it is also said that all of uganda's kabaka's visited the 'shrine' to receive blessings upon their advent of rule. the area is arid with no fresh water for miles. but only a few hindred meters away is a small spring of fresh water which the locals do not allow anyone to drink or wash hands with. the water is somehow used like 'giving amrit' to devotees who are all africans. when asked about who they revere the place for, the locals say that 'he is not one of ours but there is some great spiritual power here'. a group of gyanis from india visited the shrine to further the discovery. it is even believed that in a sakhi, mardana asked nanak why the locals had curly hair. that faintly suggests nanak's visit to africa. it is possible and for one to find out more, has to visit the place. i may be going there myself to do my own research. so far, all we know is that the village's name is 'Bamu Nanika' (Bamu may be a short form of Baba Mungu - Mungu means God in Swahili). the locals know not who the sikhs are. we are strangers to them but if we can do some research, there is a high possibility of adding africa's name to the places nanak travelled to."

Sat sri akal ji, Thank u paji. Rab rakha

Sat sri akal, I'm doing some research on the travels of Guru ji and i was told that he came to kenya. I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me with this as i need information on this. Thanks Rab rakha
