I don't have hair long enough yet for a joora; consequently, I have to tie my Patka around my fat head which isn't very successful. I would love to find someone who had a day, month, or year to teach me how to properly tie a turban. Any volunteers. I tried doing it the way it shows on the...

Sikh GiftsI found for turbans and patkas.

I posted an unexpected long reply to this thanking each of you and sharing my hope of one day wearing a turban, but I am not sure if it posted or stopped in mid-post.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fathe, I just wanted to thank each of you on this forum for your posts. They are so educational. I enjoyed reading the post by drkhalsa in which the turban speaks. As I read the posts I realize how much I don't know and how little I do know. I am...

Sinister, First thank you for the link. What I would like to respond to is the statement in your thread heading "What We Know (DOC): Fence Sitters Galore...Why The Agnostics May Have It Right." I have only been learning about Sikhism for a short time; however, I volunteered my services as an...

Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh, aad0002 abd Jds1980 thank you both for your insights. aad0002, I see you are from PA; I too am living in Eastern PA. As I progress in Sikhi, I may ask your guidance on where things are located if that is alright?

Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh, I am new to Sikhism and am trying to learn how to be a Sikh and what Sikhs believe. The three concepts for which I would appreciate an explanation are Soul, Reincarnation, and Karma. I have read contradictory statements concerning Sikhism and...

I do not have long hair as I have just begun my journey into Sikhism; however, I will not cut my hair or shave my beard ever again. I do not wear a turban, but as soon as I buy one and learn how to place it on my head, I will wear it with pride. I have none of the 5 K's but I hope to obtain...
