    What book(s) are you reading now?

    I'm about 70 pages in. I'm finding it a little anti-climactic.. and the mannerisms awfully repetitive. *pushes stray hair behind her ear*

    Can't say it's what I was expecting so far.

    AUM OM anyone actually experience it?

    Dustin Welcome to the forum. :) Can you remember what you were doing at that time in your life when you were experiencing this 'state of om'? In Sikhi, the vibration is called the Anhad Shabad or Anhad Naad (the unstruck sound-current of the universe). There is usually a process to...

    Who are the modern descendants of today's Gurus?

    You said you were surprised there is no record of Guru Sahiban descendants. I said it's not important. In some religions, tracing lineages is very important, so they keep track of it. Sikhi has no use for lineages, so it doesn't keep a record (to my knowledge, anyway). Who you are is of little...

    Sexual orientation of forum members

    I voted hetero female but am bi-curious. I've been strongly attracted to females, but never had the chance to get up close and personal.

    Sri Guru Granth Sahib verse

    The Sikh equivalent is to be Jivan-Mukt (liberated while alive). Here's a snipped from SikhiWiki, although I highly recommend you read the whole article Jivan mukta - SikhiWiki, free Sikh encyclopedia. : The jivan-mukta of Sikh conception is the realized soul, identified as gurmukh (one...

    New computer... grrrrr...

    Nice! Let us know how you get on with the all-in-one. I don't know anyone with one of them yet.

    Sri Guru Granth Sahib verse

    Yeah :) But the problem is that 'ego' in English does not mean "separation from Ik Onkar". We all have and need an ego as part of the human mind. Without one, we couldn't function. Haumai interpreted strictly as "separation from Ik Onkar" makes a lot more sense. You can focus on removing the...

    Sri Guru Granth Sahib verse

    "Haumai" is another word mis-translated into English as 'ego' when it might be better translated as 'separation' (from Ik Onkar). But that's another thread in itself. :)

    Sri Guru Granth Sahib verse

    JField Ji Great question! Complicated, but great! You're referring to this paurhi of Japji Sahib from Page 1 of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji: I understand the above is making an observation: some people in life appear to be blessed and blameless, while others are tormented by whatever...

    Should This Man Have Been Allowed To Speak?

    Further down in the article... Like the article says, I'd say the title is a marketing stunt for the event, and probably reads in full "Honour killings are morally justified [within this cultural framework]". I'm intrigued to see what the talk is actually about. Let him speak. It will...
