Why Sikh Women Are Not Allowed To Sing Kirtan At Golden Temple? By The Canadian Parvasi Why Sikh women are not allowed to sing kirtan at Golden Temple? WASHINGTON: A Sikh youth gurmat camp here has demanded why women are not allowed to perform kirtan at the Golden Temple. The week-long Camp...

Lust is defined as a passionate desire for something. a passionate desire for something. "a lust for power" synonyms: greed, desire, craving, covetousness, eagerness, avidity, cupidity, longing, yearning, hunger, thirst, appetite, hankering "a lust for power" Greed is defined more as...

Are you sure? Or perhaps is that how THEY imagine our Creator / Source to be? Just because a certain group of people ascribe certain (mostly human) traits to something / someone they can’t fully understand doesn’t mean that entity actually fits their interpretation. I would say it’s more...

Harry are you saying you don’t believe that kaam includes desire for money? Or drugs? Or power? Etc???? That it’s only the desire for sex?

It’s ONLY Gurus word for you because you BELIEVE it is!!! For others it’s NOT his word, it’s adulterated material, therefore it’s NOT bani. Definition of a Sikh covers writings and uttering of the ten Gurus. For those who do not believe DG was written by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, it does NOT fall...

I always try to correct those who think and declare that kaam=sex. Lust for sex CAN be kaam. But sex itself is not something wrong especially between married persons. Similarly, lust for money, or power over others, or drugs, or alcohol, or status, or possessions, etc can ALL be kaam. Kaam is...

Actually that identity is only associated to that body... remove that identity (if you had amnesia let’s say)... you wake up and forget everything about your identity. Do YOU still exist? Did you die? No of course not. But there is no Harry Ji left ornleast his identity everything ‘inside’ that...

Perhaps the best way to word it is that your body is not my body... or rather not your or my but rather that body and this body. The you and me behind them are one in the same according to Gurbani. But I get the feeling that you consider the physical body known as Harry Ji IS fully you and...

Perfect implies there is something imperfect to compare it to. That would mean duality. Creator just ‘is’ One is One there is no other to make comparisons. Duality and ONEness are concepts in Gurbani. I didn’t make them up. I’m trying to explain how I have come to understand what it is Gurbani...

I guess for those who believe that any idea of reincarnation mentioned in Gurbani means some change in psyche (while in this one life) then any reference to dying must mean change in thoughts and not death as in physical death? Then it wouldn’t make sense though... it would be essentially saying...

Actually anyone can do katha. A granthi is not necessarily any more qualified to do it than a learned member of sangat.

It’s proven trees communicate through root systems and have a ‘memory’ of sorts. They can also move to avoid harm and when electrodes applied there was shown they react to pain.

Actually one can be considered a Gyani / Giani Ji without having caretaker duties of a Gurdwara. Basically a Granthi is a sevadar. They are caretaker or custodian as Tejwant Ji explaiend. Usually elected for a set time period. They open the Gurdwara, do sukhassan etc. A Giani is someone we...

Do you have direct link? If Ingot to their site and click on rehet Maryada and English Incan only see a scanned page of the ‘preface to the English version’ of SRM and no way to view the actual SRM in English anymore. I want to check the paragraph on selecting Panj Pyaras and make sure they...

Some people matha tel to more than SGGSJ. Some also bow to other granths. Some bow to images of Gurus (the paintings we have come to think of as the Gurus really is artist impression and we don’t know how accurate. And besides a photo is NOT the same as the Guru. Some bow to various historical...
