    Voila, from panna 958: ਮਃ ੫ ॥ Mėhlā 5. Fifth Mehl: ਵਿਣੁ ਤੁਧੁ ਹੋਰੁ ਜਿ ਮੰਗਣਾ ਸਿਰਿ ਦੁਖਾ ਕੈ ਦੁਖ ॥ viṇ ṯuḏẖ hor jė mangṇā sir ḏukẖā kai ḏukẖ. To ask for any other than You, Lord, is the most miserable of miseries. ਦੇਹਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਸੰਤੋਖੀਆ ਉਤਰੈ ਮਨ ਕੀ ਭੁਖ ॥ Ḏėh nām sanṯokẖī▫ā uṯrai man kī bẖukẖ. Please...

    Sikhs: Do all 'religions' lead to God?

    No religion leads to "god", not even Sikhism. Religion is the problem! Naam is the key and can be accessed by anyone no matter their religion.

    There is a Gurbani passage that makes it clear that Sikhs should only pray for Naam. I'll find it and share it with you, I'd like to hear your perspective on it. :)

    Any idea what they're doing at this Gurdwara?

    It's a shame the Gurdwara doesn't have photos of Bandi Chod Diwas, too. o.O

    May you please tell me a bit about the Sikh Langar practice?

    I don't think I've ever had a tandoori roti. Would it be cooler for the sewadars to cook them that way? Standing at the hot plate for an hour or so gets stifling! I've never been stationed on the hot plate, but I've been on the buttering table next to it, and that's hot enough! Asking me...

    Regard "energy work", you will find this prevalent among the 3HO Sikh community. They also practice Kundalini Yoga. I don't know too much about Sikhs and magic in Punjab. Perhaps @Aupmanyav can give you more information about that. But as I said before, certain repetitions of shabads is...

    The halal rort on Australians: paying an Islamic religious food tax without knowing

    I hope you don't drink coffee. Or eat anything with non-sustainable palm oil in it (not that it's slaves, but the wildlife impact is truly shocking). Life's very existence causes suffering. Oh crap, I think I might be a Buddhist. O.O

    Generally it depends which version of the Dungeon Master's Guide they're playing by. :P

    Thanks for that. An interesting read. I can identify with it, as a female gamer. Where are the games with strong female leads that aren't all about the breasts?

    Despite the above, some Sikhs (particularly 3HO ones) talk about the 'power of Gurbani' and that if you repeat certain shabads a certain number of times that it produces certain changes. A "good" example of this Tera Naam - Sopurkh I've also known non 3HO Sikhs who swear by the power of...

    The mainstream Sikh Rehat Maryada (Code of Conduct) says, at Section Four, Chapter X [my comments in square brackets]: A Sikh's living, earning livelihood, thinking and conduct should accord with the Guru's tenets. The Guru's tenets are: ... d. Not believing in ... magic, spells, incantations...

    The halal rort on Australians: paying an Islamic religious food tax without knowing

    Not all chocolate. Kit Kats are intrinsically halal, too, but they had the logo for a long time. Do you avoid products labelled kosher? Just out of curiosity.

    Any idea what they're doing at this Gurdwara?

    These photos were posted on 23 October 2014. I've never seen this in a Gurdwara before and I'm wondering if anyone has an idea what they are doing? They are not in the Darbar Sahib... I think they are in the main entrance hallway of the Gurdwara itself. Perhaps it was a memorial for someone...
