This comes from 'The Glimpses of the Harimandir' by Dr. Sarup Singh Alag.

In a chaptar called "Russian thinking and the Harimandir" the author makes references to the 'athiest Russian rulers' and 'it was being heard everywhere that the Russian frends of the indian govt advised the govt of india that it should attack the Golden Temple without bothering as to whether the reigious sensibilities of the Siks or the lovers of the Harimandir got hurt or not"

Can anyone add more to this, and please can anyone clarify whether Golden Temple should be called "HarImandir" or "HaRMandir' ? Thanks

It has been a long time since i made posts regarding this topic, but have since read and found out more about ahmed shah abdali did, and what massa ranghar did/what happened to massa ranghar as a result due to two Singhs. Furthermore, as Harmandir Sahib was attacked, and destroyed by Ahmed Shah Abdali, I'm wondering if when it was rebuilt, was anything remaining from the original (e.g. Mian Mir's foundation stone?)

I know that this video was out a year ago, but having recently seen it again, i wondering a couple of things about it. At the beginning, juggy d, jay sean and rishi rich are sitting inside an apartment, and on the door there is a british and pakistani flag. they refuse entry to the 'other' jay sean. what is the significance of this?

Also, in the second part of the video, jay sean is rapping against the 'other' jay sean, ans says something like 'if it wasn't for me...', what is the significance of this?

Is it somehting to do with trying to make a point against uk pakistanis?

Thanks for pointing that out, and i think it is linked to a good theme that some ppl, as especially with the events of the tsunami start to consider God's role and whether God is 'evil' or 'right' etc, but where is God for the rest of the time in these ppl's lives, like when 'good' stuff happens.

I don't see any connection between events in london and the Hukumnama, unlike on 11th sept 2001.

Violence in UK: SAD (A) appeals for restraint

Tribune News Service

Chandigarh, July 9

The Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) has appealed to the Sikhs all over the world to exercise utter restraint and not get provoked by hate violence which has reportedly erupted in some parts of England following bomb blasts in London a few days ago.

Prof Jagmohan Singh, General Secretary of the SAD (Amritsar), said it was unfortunate that Sikhs also became the target of hate violence as a Gurdwara in Kent in England was set on fire by a violent mob protesting against London bomb attacks this morning.

A mosque in Leeds was also set on fire. Professor Jagmohan Singh said it was time for the minorities to exercise utter restraint and do not get provoked by the actions of those who were out to exploit the situation created by the bomb attacks.

The SAD (Amritsar) has already condemned London bomb attacks.

Which gurdwara in Kent was it?

There was a TV program last year about Sai Baba in uk on bbc2 and they exposed some of his 'miracles' and a whole lot of other stuff about him

Whatever you do, don't use any form of gel - one smile and your dari

cracks! Just let it blow in the wind and grow however it wishes to grow.

However, you could try using what the grandads use, Fixo!! The desi

remedy.

Some people, e.g. doctors or whatever, cannot let their dhari blow in the wind becos of their jobs etc

i was there yesterday too, there was soo much kath. baba ji got one and half hour late becos of police checking i believe he said

how old is Sant ji apart from being between 20-25?

Is Baba Thakur Singh Ji the same as Giani Thakur Singh Ji, who does katha of all Gurbani?

Hmm...I know this may seem strange. My dhari is still growing, a long way to its probable full length. The dhara are not very straight, in fact most are quite curly. I've tried combing, but it does not seem to make a big difference. From those who have experience, do the dharas get any straighter as they get longer? Is there any ways you know of making dharas straighter by combing etc?

But seriously...I don't want to turn up, and look stupid because the headphones won't fit on top of my turban...are they reasonably adjustable so the ear pieces will fit on my turban where the ears are?

I have my driving theory test in 10 days, and a bit worried, becuase you have to wear headphones durin it. I am worried because I am not sure how the headphones will fit on my pagh. Has anyone taken the theory test recently? What was it like?

Apparently the batteries for ipods are programmed only to work for a year...i suggest you do more research on this before spending a large amount of money...

Thanks for the post Dalvir, but I am sure it was mentioned on one of the sau sakhi threads.

Relax people, it's probably been installed for the babey who might be from india, and away from their family, they probably get bored. I've seen Sky installed in one of my local gurdwaras too.

This thread MUST be made a sticky. The views of rediff/author of the articles is absolutely disgusting.

I don't know if there's any solid truth behind this story, or there is just some misunderstanding, but someone once told me that apparently there's a story that a nun (at the Vatican) had a dream or a vision that one day the world would be ruled by people who wear blue turbans and shorts. This would suggest Sikhs for obvious reasons. I don't have any more information than this, but if anyone has got a clue what I am on about, please say.

Why was Operation Blue Star given that name?

I don't know if any post concerning this matter has ever been posted, but I was watching the news today and my attention was drawn to the Iranian flag. I never really thought about this before, but there is a striking similarity between the symbol on the Iranian flag, and the one of the central symbols of Sikhi, the Khanda.

Is anyone concerned in any way by this?

Where can I buy Sau Sakhi or read it on the Internet??

What proofs? I don't see any. In fact I know that Guru Nanak Dev Ji went to Mecca and made Muslims convert to his beliefs.

Aren't some desires like lust, anger, greed, etc supposed to be wrong, and block the path to God? We can live without such desires and not be a "stone", surely?
