    Conversion?

    ska, first of all, sikhi preaches equality among ALL people. saying this, dont feel as though people in gurdwara are looking at/mocking you. if they are doing this, they are not obiding by one of the most important main beliefs of sikhism. and anyways, if i saw you making an effort to come...

    Losing My Religion

    personally i feel that if someone is asking you politely about sikhism in order to expand their knowledge, you as a sardar are compelled to answer honestly. think of the impression youre giving them. might they not think that lots of sikhs are sarcastic jerks? by giving those kinda comments...

    Gurus Guru's Pictures And Portraits

    Re: Guru's "pictures/portraits" i agree with truthseeker. pictures show us somethign tangible that we can picture in our minds. it puts a face to a name. like said previously, its essential that we do not worship these photos, seeing as that is prohibited. my question then is how did...
