    Meeting Other New Converts 2 Sikhi

    I am with Kelly Kaur. I have meet a few Sant jis and had time to ask them about this, they said this way find but its a part from sikhi. I know the 3ho sikhs are great and very kind and it was a way for them to peace and god, but its not for everyone and shouldn't be pushed onto others.

    WJKK WJKF, that sounds so great, and yes I will for sure, I wish I could meet others though it would be cool I guess, there's a Yoga place with other converts in vancouver a 7 hour drive from here but maybe I will go down there, but I just feel different because they have a few different views...
