Advise on protocols
So I go to the Gurudwara regularly. I also do seva in serving langar. I wish to do a couple of things that I am hesitant to do because I do not know the proper protocol. Serving Parshad: I want to be able to serve kara parshad. What is the proper protocol for that? When should the kirpan cut the par...

Re: why dinstinction of "jatt sikh" ? aren't all sikh the sa
The term Jatt Sikh is a misnomer. You can either be a Jatt or a Sikh. There are no hyphenated Sikhs. White-Sikhs, European-Sikhs, Jatt-Sikhs, Ramgarhia-Sikhs etc is wrong. You choose to be a Sikh or you can be something else. Luckily we have a core group of Sikhs that believes in these values and ke...

Re: We need your help
Please start a website and publish pictures and stories of his progress. I don't think people will mind donating but your message needs to be delivered convincingly so that there is no element of doubt. I don't mean to hurt your sentiments but people need to also be convinced that this is genuine. P...

Cost of Sikh marriage
Hello, What is the typical cost of a Sikh wedding in USA? I am not inviting anyone but will do it in the Gurudwara and thinking of having caterers arrange langar. My parents are in India and girls parents are in India too so no real elders present here. I'm thinking cost of langar for normal sangat ...

Re: Broken vows
Stop torturing yourself. You are human and have failed. That does not give you the right to belittle yourself or stop you from coming back on the path again. Who hasn't made a mistake? We're all imperfect beings. We have all lied, strayed, fallen victim to lust but yet we strive and slowly become be...

Re: An alone sikh boy
I would think every Sikh boy living out of Punjab has been in a fight where his dastaar has been ripped and his jura opened. I know I was. That was the easiest way to attack Sikh boys. Sure, I went back home crying because I did not know how to react. I also had to go back to school to face my attac...

Muslim outrage on blasphemous Prophet Mohammed film
So the whole Islamic world seems to have erupted in rage over the blasphemous Prophet Mohammed film. Every day brings news of more rioting and violence. How would Sikhs react if someone were to make a blasphemous film about our Gurus? Do you think we are strong and secure in our beliefs to let ignor...

Re: An alone sikh boy
Hello, Where exactly in Maharashtra are you at? There are plenty of Sikhs in Maharashtra. You have to take your son to places where he can see other Sikh kids like himself so he does not feel that he is different. Is there a Gurudwara near you? I grew up in Bombay/Mumbai and I find it hard to believ...

Re: Jay Leno's Golden Temple joke
If Jay Leno called Sikhs diaper heads then we should have taken care of the issue then. I honestly don't know in what context he called Sikhs diaper heads. I doubt he would dare use the n word in his show for African Americans. So that is a double standard on his part. His current joke is a joke tho...
