There is a unique global Hollywood project to capture a snapshot of life of people all over the world on July 24th, 2010. I hope that Sikhs all over participate so that we have a chance to get some video in this project showing Sikhs in a positive way!
Some who were gathered near the Family Activities tent noticed the sorry state of the bann de manja. Within minutes, cots that might have had to be junked after the 2010 Festival were as good as new.
“I am satisfied that the complainant was treated differently because of his turban and that this was negative differential treatment,” Chadha said.

Since I began walking on this path, I’ve been wanting to receive the Guru Granth Sahib Ji. although I’ve been able to read the daily hukamnama, as well as portions of the Guru Granth Sahib Ji online, there’s something about being able to touch and to dive into the actual physical form of the Sacred Word that I’ve been craving.

Joining Mr. Starr in his 70s next year will be the still-performing Bob Dylan (“May You Stay Forever Young”) and Paul Simon (“How terribly strange to be 70”). Following soon after will be Roger Daltrey (“Hope I die before I get old”) and Mick Jagger.
Angad Singh stands tall, given that he is six feet and a few inches, and he has accomplished more at 16 than most twice his age. Independent film-maker, self-proclaimed peace activist, confident orator, straight A student, saxophone player ... and we're still far from done.
Mata Bhag Kaur Ji was the best sister any brother could ask for because she not only came closer to Waheguru but she helped her brothers too. A sister is one that doesn’t fight for her rights but in subtle ways earns it.
Some things which I have noticed amongst the Sikhs or rather people who call themselves “sikhs” including me, tend to forget the real sikhi once they arrive in USA or “Amricaa”.
