I have not meditated for maybe 20 years, if you could call it meditation, it certainly had no structure, I would just sit quietly and focus my thoughts inwards and try to find the peace and balance that we all have inside us to help you with the things on your mind, I would certainly like to...

Re: How to buy a car 6. wake up next morning to the following.....

I completely respect your view and your right to have your view, but it concerns me that the imposition of any form of restraint in dress code, or the banning of modern technology may only cause resentment, and cause people to move away from their culture and religion. You say but that is...

Itsmaneetji My understanding of Sikhism, having read the below link is that there is no Sikh reason for girls to cover the head. http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/islam/27427-sikh-women-expected-cover-head-all.html Imposing an outdated cultural practice onto young people who live in a modern...

I am always impressed with Sikh names and meanings, Sian is the welsh version of the very plane Jane. However I am surprised to note that Jane in Judaism means Gods grace, so translation needed to find my sikh name :happykudi:

Sukrit Bhenji Please try not to worry, it is easier said than done, but only a doctor can make a good judgement as to what is wrong with you, not the internet. You must get this ultrasound done asap so that you can put your mind at rest, the stress you clearly show is not helping your...

Navdeep Bhenji thats some beautiful inciteful rambling, don't ever stop mundahugpeacesignkaur

Navdeep Bhenji, In my opinion, and this applies to all religion in general, although it seems to affect them with varying degrees, most people see religion as a keystone within their community.Although they may not understand what they are doing, practice of their religion becomes rote, to...

Sukrit Bhainji, Your parents are incredibly lucky to have you, parents do the utmost to raise their children as best they can, but a potter is only as good as the clay they have to work with-don't underestimate your own heart. I am Welsh, Sian, pronounced Shaan, is a Welsh name, I know that...

Sukrit Bhainji, I think it is wonderful that you write and contribute on this site, and I thank you deeply for your contribution.The lady concerned has been made homeless by a relationship ending and has no family living locally.She is staying with another nurse that she knows better, but we...

Re: What does salvation / Mukti (ਮੁਕਤੀ) mean to you as a Sikh? Veerji, You have eloquently managed to put across what I was attempting to say in my clumsy mannermundahug

Re: What does salvation / Mukti (ਮੁਕਤੀ) mean to you as a Sikh? Ambarsaria Veerji I am not yet a Sikh, but this is my thought on the matter. These definitions of salvation imply that they are a one off achievement, and once attained are permanent states regardless of future behaviour.I feel...

Ambarsariaji, Working on that basis, my first instinct was to offer a room. I did not straight away as I felt I should discuss it with Harryji, who promptly said no.Kindness in isolotaion with little or no impact should be done without thought, and from the heart.However where there is an...

Ambarsariaji, Your sad cat story brings to mind one of my own, Years ago my mother too pity on a cat hanging outside the back door, so left a window open and eventually the cat,a very timid cat, came in, my mother who was 80% blind, left some food out for it, but then did not see it again for...

Gurfatehji, My own two pence. Sikhism does not confirm the existance of any gods of any faith. The statues are a physical depiction of what the dieties represent. A belief in dieties can be shared across religions but belief is not conformation of existence.Every country in the world has its...
