Respected kds1980, I do not agree that poverty is the main reason for female infanticide. I'd say lack of education could be one of the reasons. Now let me show you some numbers here: A family spends Rs. 20,000 for aborting a girl child. IF they put the same Rs.20,000 in a fixed deposit for...

ALso, very important part is not missing meals. Having healthy food on time is the best remedy.

Jasleenji, You have to find out the root cause of hair fall. Regular hair shedding should be not more than 50-80 hair a day, mostly more during rainy season. If you think it is more than that, you should get your thyroid checked. Many hair problems start after childbirth too. Hormonal...

Selfishness over humanity. What a pity! What injustice! What cruelty! Breaks your heart. Hyenas have taken over and the lionesses have gone into hiding.

Thanks ManbirJi and your team for putting it together and making it available to sangat. Many congratulations too. While checking, I found gurbani sung in raags by Dr. Gurnam Singh(Punjabi University) too but I'm not sure if any cds are available. I couldn't find any place to buy them. Will...

WGJKK, WJKF! Does anyone know of any CD collection with Gurbani/Shabads in all raagas? Thanks.

Thanks Spnadmin ji for detailed description of meanings of different ghar. They do look complicated and probably require much more understanding of ragas/taals. I studied music during school for 6 years but do not remember a thing. There is so much that can be studied and implemented to feel the...

WJKK WJKF! What does Ghar mean in gurbani. I know Mahala (number) represents one of the gurus. First Mahal is Guru Nanak Devji, Second Mahal is Guru Angad Devji. What does Ghar mean? Thanks.

Re: Did the Mandir ROTATE for Bhagat Namdev Ji ? Great posts by GJS ji and passingby. Thanks GJS ji for starting it and making a very valid point and thanks passingby for explaining it using grammer and taking examples. Even if you don't listen to anyone manipulating words and making up...

MSS is for (Mohinder Singh Sahni) not MISS :)). That is how he signed in his post.

Re: Dominance of Rituals in Sikh Religion MSS ji(JAPJISAHIB04), I agree with you. It is because of desires that we come and go. The use of Karmi aawe kapra nadri mokh dwar tells that it is because of karma that you come/wear a kapra(body,joon,human life) and only with the grace of God, will...

Hpannuji, I think I got what you are saying: For sihari and ounkarh-- When anywhere else other than end(like beginning or middle), pronounce it. When in the end, do not pronounce it. When in the end with vowels(like irhi, urha, erha etc.), pronounce it. Since Waheguru is one word, the sihari...

Hpannu ji, Tuhadi post baad wich dekhi. Since all the words use vowels in the end with matra, the sound of matra is clearly there(ਮਾਇ, ਸੋਇ, ਜੀਉ, ਦੁਇ, ਤਉ, ਕਾਇ, ਕਉ, ਲੁਡਾਇ, ਮਾਰਉ, ਗਵਾਇ, ਥਾਇ). How do you use punjabi letters (this is off the topic---sorry). Findingmyway Ji, tusi kamal kita a, bahut...

Thanks to all for sharing their knowledge and views. So two books can be referred for correct pronunciation: "GURBANI DI BHASHA TE VYAKARAN" by Dr. Harkirat Singh jee Gurmukhi linguistics and Gurbani Bhasha scholars from Punjabi university----------as suggested by 'SPNadmin' "Gurbani Viakaran"...

First of all, Guru Gobind Singh Sahibji de gurpurab di bahut bahut wadhai howe. Secondly, Please help me on this: What is the correct pronunciation of the word: Waheguru. In Gurmukhi, there is sihari(i) to the letter h in the word waheguru. Do we pronounce it as WAAH-E-GURU or WAAH-GURU...
