lol horrr kii banni janda sangaatooo - is not whats cooking sangat..- more like...horr ki banni janda is -- whats happening/whats goin on

--------

and truth paji it aint " Neo pange ghat kariya kar" ...didn't u mean to say panga ghat leya kar..

lol neo wanted to take panga..so ajja neo hun ! lol

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

chal aja , neo ....mukabala on punjabi..darpok jeha darri na !!

lol neo u make me do more work den wot i have to ..lol lets see how it goes wid translation

Translation : Come on, Neo. Competition on Punjabi. Whats darpok in english?? lol hmmm..Scared one, don't get scared.

So here it is : Come on, Neo. Competition on Punjabi. Scared one, don't get scared.

Whoa Whoa!..Simple one word " Nice!" ..

Taught me something..! Thanks amans paji for sharing with us.

Oh yeah!..Sorry to say , both Steel Bangle paji and Neo paji were wrong when it came to the literal meaning of Singh and Kaur.

For your ..general knowledge ..(IF I AM NOT WRONG) ..I thought the literal meaning of the word 'Kaur' is Prince (not Princess). It is a derivative of the Sanskrit word 'Kanwar' meaning Prince, whereas, 'Singh' is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Simha' meaning lion

Anyone agree or disagree?? :wink:

Whoa! Heck of a neat topic.

Here is one..to start me off.

What year was construction completed on the Golden Temple in Amritsar?

Like Neo Says, Sikhism is not about quantity but quality! :wink:

Well, sometimes ...its the little things that matter...!

Huh? Neo what did you just say?? I totally lost you!! Didn't make sense at all ! LOL , Perhaps be the kindest gentel man and rephrase.!

So if you don't mind stop playing Khalsa Police force controling waht I or other people would like to wear! If you want to do that then go to Iran! There they have women patrolling controling the way other women dress!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lalleshavari,

No way was I trying to control anyone's life or how they dress and so forth ...Just expressing my opinion as rest of the sangat on this board is/does. :roll:

So, I personally didn't like what you had to say to me. You telling me to go to "Iran"..and to patrol people..Wasn't you trying to control me too?? Anyways,I didn't take it personally. You express your opinions on this board, and I do too. So, there is no reason to even take it as far as Iran..-BIT TOO CHILDISH!

Anyways, to the clothes issue. You be my guest to wear belly shirts and perhaps..And if you want that...Why even wear those?? ....Why show little bit, show it all!

By wearing belly shirts and stuff of that nature, you tell me what is your objective/ outcome by wearing those?

You know what's provocative and what's not. It is also a matter of intent. If you are clear, noble and self-contained, you do not radiate a sexual vibration to others. Your clothes express your state of mind. Let your clothing be simple, clean and modest. It is not a matter of rules - it is a matter of consciousness. When people try to be sexy, it's pretty obvious.

I am sure, you wouldn't wear such clothing to the gurudwara, why wear it in the public too?? ..Isn't waheguru everywhere??

Anyways, I am not concerened with what you wear or I am not the one to judge you ..But, Let me know what you think!..

They Do??..I didn't know ...Nah, thats too harsh to be true..

Someone perhaps elaborate on that..

Hehehe, Very well said ...Gurpreet Penji..Very well! Proud of you..!LOLZ!

BTW, I knew this gori sikh named.."Shabad Sangeet Kaur Khalsa"...Interesting ain't it.!

Hmmm, Hehehe Yesh Yesh! Gurpreet penji said it right...!

Perhaps, taking Joga Singh's question into consideration perhaps we could tell our name ...Under our ID. Like in paranthesis or something

For Example:

Desikuddi02

(Gurpreet Kaur)

Ulta Pulta

(Internet Singh)

Just a thought...Hehe!

Wow ! A Job Well Done..Seriously!

BE A SAINT-SOLDIER

By Harjit Singh Lakhan

'Nanak says, the ghosts are the ones who are devoid of God's love

and service and have forgotten the Lord. '

(Guru V, Jaitsri Raag : Guru Granth Sahib Jee)

What's goin' on? What's goin' on?

You were gonna be something

But now something's wrong.

You weren't born to have

Fights like an alley cat,

Chin full of greasy fat,

Less love than a sewer rat.

You weren't born to be

Evil and bitter

Don't you know these days were

Meant to be better?

Get your act together

Be a saint-soldier

Guru Nanak Loves You

This Love will make you stronger.

Don't get depressed,

no just don't do it

Love the Life God's given you,

come on get with it

Go Go to it -

to the Gurdwara do it

Try to understand -

you wont regret it.

Dream a dream - the world's a dream

Take control and set your scene

Close your eyes everything is dark

One day you will see the light, if you do your paat.

Don't be dopey - no just don't dig it

High on life - no lie get with it

Go Go to it - to the Gurdwara do it

And understand - you wont regret it.

Dream a dream - the world's a dream

Take control and set your scene

Ignite the light - spark the dark

By the Guru's grace - make your mark!

What's going on? What's going on?

Get Your act together

And sing the Waheguru song.

Waheguru, Waheguru Waheguru jee

Waheguru, Waheguru, Waheguru jee.

BTW, Harjit Singh Lakhan is very good poet, don't you guys think so?

Wow! What a nice poem!...Very well written.

Very sad at the same hand too. Thats one of weaknesses of Sikhi is that not many know it.

May Vijay Singh rest in peace...My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family~!

Berry Nice..Amardeep Paji 8) 8) !

LQQKS TYTE! 8)

Very well said Gursj

Since the stock market didn't exist when Guru Gobind Singh taught us the dangers of gambling. I do not think it is gambling for Sikhs to have retirement plans that include stocks in the portfolio. Retirement plans are, in effect, a reality and requirement in today's world. In addition, for most people, the stock market is not one's SOLE source of income, it is used to enhance income. It is a wise and observant Sikh who invests in the stock market only as an ADJUNCT to regular work/regular pay, and who doesn't invest ALL his or her assets and earnings in the dice-throw that is the stock market

Guru did not want his Sikhs to avoid work or to fritter money needed for supporting a family on gambling houses, many of which are havens for various types of crimes. He wanted his Sikhs to be examples of honest work. A Sikh who works honestly and has investments on the side is not breaking his or her rehit.

Hope this clears it up!

Another factor is ...Peer Pressure.

Especially when you'll be the only one there. Growing up in totally a 'gora' society is bit hard..and on the same hand trying to practice your relgion. :cry: :cry: I know its possible, but again you know peer pressure.

I know we shouldn't worry about what others have to say, but some how its like automatically..Especially where the whole crowd knows nothing about Sikhism or that it even exists. Makes it a lot easier when you got least some sangat....and especially where I live, No gurudwara or anything. Probably the nearest gurudwara is ..like a 4 hr plane ride.

Anyways, no offence to anyone...But you know as they say...keep on trying...and me is.

Lalleshvari tell me one thing...Why would you want to wear something that shows half your stomach??

Just get with that fact that one should dress their self in a simple and modest way; gaudy clothes and revealing dress bring no credit.

Although, I do not know of a reference from the rehat Maryada, but Sri Guru Granth Sahib has the Gurus bani on our food habits and dress sense

Sri Guru Granth Sahib has stated very clearly that we should not wear any clothes which cause pain to the body and anguish to the mind: This is set out very clearly in Guru Nanak's shabad in Sri Raag on Part 16 (12) of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.

Siree Raag, First Mehl:

sabh ras mithay mani-ai suni-ai saalonay.

Believing, all tastes are sweet. Hearing, the salty flavors are tasted;

khat tursee mukh bolnaa maaran naad kee-ay.

chanting with one's mouth, the spicy flavors are savored. All these spices have been made from the Sound-current of the Naad.

chhateeh amrit bhaa-o ayk jaa ka-o nadar karay-i. ||1||

The thirty-six flavors of ambrosial nectar are in the Love of the One Lord; they are tasted only by one who is blessed by His Glance of Grace. ||1||

baabaa hor khaanaa khusee khu-aar.

O Baba, the pleasures of other FOODS are FALSE.

jit khaaDhai tan peerhee-ai man meh chaleh vikaar. ||1|| rahaa-o.

Eating them (WHICH ?), the body is ruined, and wickedness and corruption enter into the mind. ||1||Pause||

rataa painan man rataa supaydee sat daan.

My mind is imbued with the Lord's Love; it is dyed a deep crimson. Truth and charity are my white clothes.

neelee si-aahee kadaa karnee pahiran pair Dhi-aan.

The blackness of sin is erased by my wearing of blue clothes, and meditation on the Lord's Lotus Feet is my robe of honor.

karam-band santokh kaa Dhan joban tayraa naam. ||2||

Contentment is my cummerbund, Your Name is my wealth and youth. ||2||

baabaa hor painan khusee khu-aar.

O Baba, the pleasures of other CLOTHES are false.

jit paiDhai tan peerhee-ai man meh chaleh vikaar. ||1|| rahaa-o.

Wearing them (WHICH ?), the body is ruined, and wickedness and corruption enter into the mind. ||1||Pause||

Wow ! So Cool ..Tavleen !!

Again, seems a joke, but very true. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Yesh Yesh! I wish....

But too unfortunate, Chalo Koi Na

BTW, Nothing has made sense so far...I mean N-O-T-H-I-N-G!

Amar Paji ...You making my head spin more..

which Line?

It means, I didn't come across one single line that made sense to me

Anyways, Its all good..

Yeah, that jealousy moment only last about 30 seconds

Chalo look forward to hearing more of your geekish talk :twisted: :twisted:

Well, actually I am not sure about any of the things you asked above.

But this is something to look at as well.

I have seen numerous examples in reality/

Say, you are the only one ...in your home who is amrithdhari/gursikh, rest of your family eats meat/drink ....and so forth..

If you keep the SGGS in your home, its like you've set a mini gurudwara in your house, yeah?

So its like not really proper, when the whole "janta" ( a better word sangat in your home) isn't devoted.

Some people may argue that if Guru is in Sukhasan, and in a separate room, with the door closed, then what you do in your kitchen is up to you and your personal conscience. But, what about those "gaps" and so forth in the doors and all that..?? :roll: :roll:

Anyone else out there get what I am trying come across...

Hopefully 8)

Whoa! A story, but indeed very true.

Thanks for sharing. Had me in shock for 'lil while.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Out of all those posts, one line didn't make sense to me

You folks too technical

Jealous again (For sure this time)

LOL
