Pretty sad for this to happen

its a weird topic but its all good

from eye twitching to national pride on being a southerner or a canadian to health advice

interesting turn of events

bebe

share it with us then?

Very good point made

no enmity is equal to understanding and acknowledgment

Most uneducated people in India are the problem who keep wanting to wipe out Sikhs.

Lets hope for peace, what has been done in the past is not right or pleasant but we as Sikhs of the Guru have to live on -- after its only we who can live with harshness.

Its a great idea to have a film

well im sure its not fair to have it online but it would serve well to make it available online as with accesibility comes more interest.

i wonder who are the actors and stuff in the film

im gonna do a google and read up on this....

aura and the likes have a lot to do with the electromagnetic energy surrounding the outer perimeter of ones body,

i dont know much about it, but i know that its fascinating.

well is there a way to get some videos and documentaries on sikhi?

im sure some are made in india but can someone just upload them here on SA just like a torrent?

talking about hockey in india, its weird to note that although its the national sport it is still less popular compared to cricket

Why?

I wonder what is happening to india's hockey team.

For one thing its the national sports but has always been conquered by punjabis...it seems lately that the arent many punjabi players in the team anymore.

Of course we have the legends in the team, but what about the new generation? i talked to my indian friends and they say that they is too much corruption in hockey and you must have more than talent to be playing at the national level representing india.

Is that true?

Over in malaysia, we have a great hockey team as well, and used to have 3 or 4 punjabi sikhs who played for teh national team in late 70s and early 80s.

Right now, punjabi sikhs are great at high school level, but somehow you dont see many faces at the national level.

That is because only a select few muslim malays are nurtured and sent to sports schools or acedemies since they are young (everything is paid for them)

Leaving the others to fight for their place as they grow.

However what is the situation in India as hockey enthusiasts are aware of the detereoration of india's performance.

hey

yeah well you could try Google for comparing or about.com ( its a great site )

im sure you'll do a good comparison once you find the facts yourself and compile it.

Getting it off others will be good as well but that would make you less prepared -- might need more time to read and understand it -- whereelse if you find it you are understanding it, reading it and it'll hardly take an effort answering questions from the audience later on

hope that helps

=my two cent worth=

damn those are more like revolutionary medical facts!

"According to Prof. Jeaneane Fowler of the University of Wales College, Newport: “The relationship between the many manifest deities and the unmanifest Brahman is rather like that between the sun and its rays"

Quoting the above lines, it sort of sums it up.

There is ONE God, deities are real, they are beyond humans yet not equal to the creator.

respect deities (even Idols, pictures etc) because they are a reminder to us of their existence and form.

that is why many deities are into many forms -- to appeal to the masses and to appeal to the human senses.

As long as the intentions are one -- to worship -- then everything will fall into place.

=my two cents worth=

Errr, because about 60% of it is in Pakistan and the rest 40% is in 'India'. I assume you are talking about Panjab, right? Or are you not Panjabi?

Since when is a Panjabi a 'native of Hindustan'?, he/she is always a native of Panjab. :roll:

Because we are not Hindus, that's why, otherwise what's wrong with being called Jews or even Muslim? :roll:

What planet are you living on? What identity crisis? Most Sikhs I have met are proud Panjabis? What are you? A Tamil or something? :roll:

OK, listen, I don't know where you learned your history but if you are a Panjabi, you have never been a 'native of Hindustan', such a place has never existed prior to 1947, and it is actually known as 'India'. This is a British invention, it has never been an actual country with one people or one race. If you are not a Panjabi then I apologise if I offended you.

Kind Regards,

MI

This is a great summary if we would like to saty on topic

MI has summed it up nicely.

I am a proud punjabi, and to further note that punjab existed before India

and is it true that guru nanak had written the word "hindustan" in one of his works in SGGS?

Very interesting

I need to ask though, how come you guys know so much?

Do you learn hinduism studies in indian schools?

oh ok that sounds terrible

where is the Imam now?

These writers write great things and give some perspective for those who are not born into sikhism what our religion really is.

In some sense, most of us know a segment less than a reader of their book would eventually learn to appreciate and remember.

Personally, i have not really completed a book on any topic in Sikhism. Most probably i would know much of the historical details but not scholar-type comparisons on sikhism

anyhow, its always good to know a few non-sikhs are appreciative and non-biased.

veerji

where is the error that was made

is it shown in the translated version?

btw the site that translated the letter has a lot of good stories and resources - keep it up!

p2p will remain something that while many would use it, at the same time hardly any would condemn it

cheers

Firefox is definitely the better browser

it just is way ahead of IE or any other browsers in terms of stopping pop-ups and other self download trackers.

trust me, stop using IE and see the difference for yourself

cant seem to open the .wmv

are you sure it still works?

Sat Sri Akaal everyone,

I guess i should make an intro, a formal one although some might have seen my post at news/current affairs

Name is ishverjeet singh from ipoh, malaysia. Born in KL.

Right now im a sophomore-turning-junior at purdue university, usa.

I have special interest for paranormal stuff and i'm esp. on a quest for truth.

As some know, The Truth Is Out There.

yeah more pics

more pics

more!

damn

for one thing i am not even born in india and for the record have not even stepped a single foot in india

I HATE it ever since knowing what happened during those days.

It saddens me to see so many of India born Sikhs seem to have forgotten what happened 20 years ago. Nothing angers and saddens me more than that fact.

I was born and raised in Malaysia, so were my parents. Malaysia being a muslim country, it is special to note that Sikhs are more respected here than in INDIA!

In my small city (ipoh) there are at least 20 Gurdawaras. All around Malaysia there are about 150 gurdawaras.

So i ask you, my brothers and sisters, change my view about the current India, i am trying to outgrow my hate for India, and subconsciously the minority of some of India's ignorant Sikhs

haha

yeah that is indeed wicked

i would like to carve that out next halloween (if im here that is)

what year was that news?

if it is a virus why doesnt Sewadar remove the link?
