CdnSikhGirl Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 Some have mentioned wanting access to online simran etc. And we rely on ones from gurdwaras etc. But I know there is online streaming audio kind of like the gamers use... That can be used for online conferences. Why not have a time (make it weekends so more could attend) and have some take initiative to start simran for Sikh Awareness, and we could all join in since it's streaming?? Each weekend maybe a different person could initiate and we could have different styles, I might even initiate sometime if I'm brave enough and do it with guitar... Someone else might start it with harmonium etc but since we could all hear each other we could interact live and do this together. of course we are in different time zones so it wouldn't be Amrit vela everywhere but I think it would work really well!!! Then we could share our different techniques and ways to do it and take turns participating in each other's simran. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HisServant Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I am soooo down to do this. I live in a non sikh city and I'm not old enough to drive to Brampton/Toronto so this will be perfect. I mainly do the same saas giras simran mysimran.info emphasizes. Maybe a feature could be added to this site? It could be available 24/7 and whenever someone is online they could jump in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do it 6 am/pm to 6:45am/pm. But nobody ever join them, I tried three times I was the only one in room lol. But feature here is a good suggestion, unless people start using it for debate lol . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnSikhGirl Posted January 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I'm not sure... Admins would have to see if there is an audio chat option as an add in module to the forum software. And then, it would have to have capability to have all mics keyed at once (like they use in gaming running behind the actual game so teams can chat real time to each other without having to take turns 'keying' their mics. It would only work if we can ALL do the simran together and can ALL hear everyone else. The rest is easy.. just setting a time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CdnSikhGirl Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Since I am sure we are ALL wanting to get the simran benefits out of it, we would leave the debates for the forum. Even though we all have disagreements on other things, we can all agree that Simran is important and we all want to benefit from it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GurpreetKaur Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 It won't happen cuz people are at different avastha on this forum lol . If that does not happen, we three can call mysimraninfo conference call, at least I won't be the only one in the room. Lol. It's so awk when you hear "introduce yourself" and I am like to whom? I am the only one here lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhul chuk maaf Yes there is a gurdwara in Kitchener area. Punjabi population has become heavy but Sikh population is still very slowly growing. We've tried Simran in the past but no one really came. It's mainly just Sunday morning diwan. There's almost no youth Sikhi though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
