Skeptic We all have times when we question our commitment to faith and whether we are living the ideals as we should be. Although I guess I'm in no position to be giving advice as I am a shajdheri but was until fairly recently a keshadhari (things changed a bit at uni). Although I have and do...

In regards to what SuburbanSikh mentioned, I agree in the most part. In addition I think the argument of differentiatingbetween what a Sikh is and what a Punjabi person is, is best seen by those who don't actually live in Punjab. While the two are often in synergy of one another they do not...

kds1980 Good analogy, couldn't agree more.

With all due respect; I don't think you need the details you listed. If we all reacted violently when being "emotionally assaulted" what would the world look like? Look at the result of their actions- regardless of the exact wording of the insult. Name-calling and insult throwing resulted...

Hi In regards to Nadeem's comments I can see where you are coming from and wish others from both our communities could be a little more open-minded and less ignorant. I have a real mixture of friends and have learnt a great deal from them not only on faith issues but life in general. However...

Hi everyone I'm new to the site and am looking forward to learning more about Sikhi and other people's views. I think the sign-up email asks for an intro so here goes; I'm a 23yr old British Sikh woman currently studying for my MSc while also working in the civil service. I enjoy the usual...
