    Meditation Practices

    Cheers for that post BhagatSingh. It took quite a while and quite a bit of discrimination to get to where I'm at. I feel that my mind for a long time has taken a lot of my power, and it is quite powerful, the ego is very strong. So depending on where I am, I use various practices so I have a...

    Meditation Practices

    Hi all, My question is, does being a Sikh, allow things such as watching the mind, or watching the watcher. I'm not too sure if it's vipassana meditation? Also enquiring, "Who am I?" from Ramana Maharshi. Which directs you from the mind to the source, inside you, the atman, ever present...

    Guru Arjan As Incarnation Of Waheguru?

    Whether it says Guru Arjan Dev Ji was an incarnation of waheguru, how does it help in your search? You could say that every prophet or sage is an incarnation of waheguru. Every person, place, thing is an incarnation of waheguru in physically manifest form. Taking the original gurmukhi...

    General Concept Of Jhoot (re: Jootha Food)

    Cheers for the video, it has some good insights. I have no problems with jhoot, food hygiene yes, but not the literal jhoot. What I was trying to get at was, that maybe this jhoot we are taught about, is a metaphor. :angryadminsingh:

    Islam Dumbest Reasons For Converting To Islam

    Won't be long before that guy moves to another religion... Christianity? I like the 'juice' they give out in church. Never mind the body and blood of Christ. No seriously, all religions have the same sirra (summit). If you can't get there via one school conversion is a very superficial trivial...

    General Concept Of Jhoot (re: Jootha Food)

    Hello everyone, I wanted to see people views on the concept of jhoot. To prevent ambiguity let's be clear that the 'jhoot' I refer to is the one often associated with cleanliness and food hygiene. By that I mean that 'jhoot' is food that has been eaten by someone else, food that is...

    Embodying Your Realisation

    Hi everyone, I came across this article on a general spirituality forum and it's called Embodying Your Realisation by John Welwood. You can google it for free and I would like to know to what extent, maybe with quotes, the GGSji holds this following excerpt valid. Thanks, excerpt follows...

    General Spiritual Guidance

    Hello, Thanks for the comments people, public and private. findingmyway, a few things I found slightly disturbing, I don't like the idea of people as role models. That's kind of like worshipping a mental idol and altering an ego around it. Looking up at people, well I appreciate other people...

    General Spiritual Guidance

    Hi all, I am looking for some advice on where to go from where I'm at in terms of spiritual development, so I'll highlight how I got to where I'm at. Hopefully it won't attract any replies loaded with prejudices or maybe this is just a loaded question. But anyway, just need a little guidance...

    Gangs In The Gurdwara

    I don't go to the gurdwara much myself as there is usually a lot of people who go there just to gossip. Also gurdwaras and other places of worship are sometimes treated as wishing wells. I'm sure that those so called gurmukhs are simply just superficial, they think they've maybe just joined...

    God: The Invisible Man Floating In The Clouds

WGJKKWGJKF everyone, Just a brief introduction so you know where I'm coming from in this post. I was born in UK and have parents that came from Punjab in India. I was born...

    Can Someone Explain Sikhism To Me?

    I like this that definitely resonates with me. A Sikh is always a learner, because you can only contemplate on so much in a day, and it's kind of a life long thing, always learning about what we are and stuff. Also the part about it not being a religion as such. For it to be called a religion...

    Meditation

    That pretty much resonates with my view, past experiences that are good or bad, and reoccuring 'themes' usually have a lesson attached to them. Layer by layer they reveal other things you need to learn lessons from. And the more layers you peel away, the more waheguru shines through your being.

    Dalai Lama: Negative Emotions

    First off, that's a bit of a sweeping generalisation. Every religion has good at it's core if it's in service of making us better human beings and more in line with our purpose here. If you use a religion in service of the ego, that includes Sikhi, then you can turn something beautiful into...
