The best part of being Sikh is knowing you are apart of something special. To know that you have a purpose and to feel blessed. Strength comes from our ability to believe, to procure our faith. Being a Sikh is like finding your soul. Honor and liberty to a Sikh is like oxygen to living. We breathe equality and freedom. If that's not enough look at how beautiful some of these sadarnis are :)

Sikhism is the only religion which states that Women have equal right as men do.

Sikhism only Says that There are millions of other planet in our universe. (It was before gallelo or others)

Sikhism is the only religion that doesn't apply caste system.

Yet Sikhism doesn't say that Sikhism is the only religion in this world. It states ONE GOD MANY FAITHS

Being Sikh, I had fortunately chance to study Guru Granth Sahib, which is the best source & guide for spirituality.

Comments

I feel very blessed being born in a Sikh family as Sikhism seems the most practical and ideal religion leading to spirituality without rituals. It is based on equality and respect to other faiths. Our Guru Granth Sahib is truely a treasure of profound spiritual knowledge. If we (Sikhs appearing externally, which is not so difficult) practice `sikhi' internally also, with Waheguruji's mehar, Sikhism will prevail universally. All good persons would like to follow it.

I live in England and there is much peer pressure all around me. I have stayed 15 years having long hair, and i believe in my religion. I have read the views of Other Sikhs on this page and i agree and disagree with some of the views. The response by MMakhan Bassi is disgusting and is definately not true. We should all behave as one, after all we are Sikhs. You cannot get through life with Goray telling us what to do, we must be independant. We are Sikhs

The coolest thing about being a sikh( wearing turban only),I have not found yet.The i find it, i 'll definitely paste it here. Well, most of you r out of Punjab ,so I would comment that " dooor de dhol suhaavne lagde hann ." Out side Punjab u miss your culture & community.So u adopt sikhism here abroad. But in Punjab, the birthplace ( also homeland)of Sikhism, Jatt sikh youth do not like to be sikhs( ie to have hair) so almost 80% ( may be more than this %age, but not less than this, i can bet). And I respect Bhapa sikhs a lot who never cut their hair (because they have the true sikhi in their hearts)& about jatt sikhs ( poor fellows, illiterate or semi-literate ie 10 th pass , +2 pass or at most BA pass with Physical Education ). You may visit Punjab & see with your own eyes & u will feel very sad in which direction jatt sikh youth is going , ( towards drugs, narrow-mindedness, womanising, pornography inferiority complex ,broken self confidence, unemployeed crime & depression ) u can not do anything for them I repeat, u can not do anything for them .!!!! They (Jatts)took pride of being of Higher cast and they r suffering bacause of this ) when their girls run away from home with others .

What u can do for them .

So be Cool , cool enough not to look into these matters , problems facing the Jatt sikh community , which makes the highest %age og sikhs in the world ( around 60% alone )

So be cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111 a sad ex-sikh

Their are a number of great thing about being a Sikh. You are almost instantaneosly recognized out of a thousand people. (this may not be good, if you're trying to hide from someone) You get to look different instead of the average Joe Blow. You get to choose different colors of Pug's to wear on a daily basis.(this is always the highlight of my day (jk) You get to wear a Kara, which always reminds you about your culture and helps lead you in the right path. You get to marry the most beautiful girls in the world(Sardarni's)-ok so I got the most beautiful one, maybe the second most. Getting more respect that any one else. By wearing a Pug, you get alot of respect, far more than any other culture. I could go on and on, but I'll save it for when I have more time. Waheguru ji ka khalsa, Waheguru ji ki fateh!

WEaring a Turban!!!. FOr all you 'sikhs' out there who believe that by cutting your hair you are "cool" and more attractive, I have one thing to say - You are soooooo mis-informed. I think the fundamental problem with todays youth is an extreme lack of self-esteem, coupled with an indefatigable desire to 'fit-in". Personally, i have a beautiful 'western' (although i HATE classifying people into ANY Category)girlfriend whom i have loved for 3years and will eventually (god willing) marry. We met in a local nightclub, and she expressly stated she loved me for my religion, self esteem, PERSONALITY, and (not to mention) beautiful looks (via turban). Therefore, despite a Turban and a recalcitrant adherence to the Khalsa Path I have Achieved More REspect and Personal satisfaction than those NUMEROUS Un-orthodox sikhs who to this day are Struggling with Low self esteem / loss of identity. Why can't they realise that PERSONALITY ULTIMATELY PREVAILS and that instead of Treating the TURBAN as an Encumbrance - Treat it as an ASSET!!!.

My history. We come from a proud, warrior, yet humble and hard-working ancestory. Our forefathers tilled the land, and when needed, said a prayer and picked up their swords to fight ANY injustice. Our people have triumphed under hard conditions, and the one the RSS and the so called Indian Government have created will one day push us to the edge and we will triump once more. I once read of a Singh that was tortured for days by the government, finally, he was asked by RSS agents, "Why do you refuse to give us the answers we ask?" His reply, not only shocked me, but changed me. With the energy he had, he said "Go to Amritsar, and dig into the ground. There you will find Roman coins, Islamic and Mughal coins, and Indian coins. They have come, and they have gone. We are here to stay." I would like to end this message with a quote...

"The rope of the gallows is dear to us like the embrace of our Lover, but if we are condemned to be prisoners of war, we will wish the bullets to kiss the truth lurking in our breasts so that the sacred ground of Khalistan becomes more fertile with our warm blood. Long live Khalistan!" -Sukha and Jinda

The sikh religon had the potential to become one of the world's greatest religon. No - not just a religon - a way of life, a society, a political system, a nation hood, the very essence of cohesion in human terms.

It has become a bastardised version of what it was meant to be.

Justice, equality, freedom, and abandonment of superstitions and false idol worship.

Almost every sikh in the world must have one or more pictures of the guru's in their house, you all give money at the gurdwara, you think eating meat, especailly beef is gainst your religon. Why, because once again sikh are cowtowing to the Brahmin Hindu spoutings of superstition and idol worship - not eating meat on Tuesdays !! have you heard such crap.

The sikh's self image bears little resemblance to reality. The spirit of one upmanship has been replaced by empty boombast and plain greed.

Devotion religion has given way to the display of religiosity.

The Khalsa way of life, the way of the saint - solider has declined into meaningless ritual

Akand Paths through hired granthis, and teh worship of the Granth as though it were an idol has replaced it as the study of hymnal philospophy to give guidance to the individual, family and society as a whole .

Keerten by profressional ragis demanding high fees as though they were film playback singers.

Of course ragis and granthis have perpetuated these practices as they have a vested interest.

Despite claims of equality and no caste - discrimination against low caste sikhs, women and other creeds is just as prolific as in Hindus.

The mesage of goodwill to all Mankind enshrined in the Granth has been reduced to a litany to be chanted on ceremonial occasions.

Gurus Gobind Singh's exhortation " Draw the sword after all other means of righting a wrong have failed" is honoured more in breach, and by gangsters and thugs who think they are very brave "Soormey" saint Soliderswho haul out innocent , unarmed people from buses and shoot them.

And lets not forget the uneducated half wit Hindu Baiter Bhindranwale, who became a martyred hero for the lumpen, narrow minded dregs of Sikh society.

Now a true Khalsa makes up 0.25 % of the global Sikh community.

Alas, The gurus are now long dead, The true Khalsa is dead, and the sikh religon is dead.

The best thing about being a sikh is knowing what our ancestors went thru. They fought 4 Sikhism in conditions that we cant even bear to think about. Sikhism started of from a single being, Guru Nanak Dev Ji and now there is millions if sikhs all ova da world. Its incredible to think how far we have come.

I think that the coolest thing about being a Sikh is that we are a proud people. We struggled for our rights here in North America. In addition we still retained our culture, language, customs, and most importantly our religion. Sikhs also retain strong ties with the homeland-Punjab, India.

However, what is problematic is the constant use of violence to solve disputes amongst both adults and youth in the Sikh community-its epidemic-just read the newspapers in B.C., Canada. It has never stopped to this day. There is a lack of guidance by parents, and the younger generation, whether they want to hear it or not, are lost. People have forgotten our struggle and about the Sikh pioneers who came here and worked hard and who were honest and loyal.

Also, the temple officials, particularly in Vancouver and Surrey, B.C., Canada are generally corrupt and dishonest. They have actually taken the Gurdwaras away from the general population and have dishonestly profitted from donations. They are much like the corrupt temple officials in India back in the late 1800's and early 1900's who were greedy. Unfortunately, the youth are not given access to the temples, which are instead controlled by cliques of arrogant men and women who proclaim and profess the Sikh faith in the public but practice greed and nepotism in the background.

I know people in our community are offended by this commentary but they need to learn how to listen and start accepting some responsibility.

Being a sikh means to obey Guru Granth Sahib which contains the teaching of Gurus and other enlightened souls. A Sikh knows that everything and everyone is made by the almighty one true form and it dosn't matter what name he is given. Unfortunately reading some of the comments on this board by those that call themselves Sikhs obviousley don't know this otherwise wouldn't they know that they are abusing the creator when they abuse others and do you think he will be pleased with them? I don't think so what do the individuals think? Remember the word Sikh means to seek and all humanity is seeking the "Truth." However Sikhism has given all the answers in the Guru Granth Sahib and it is up to each and everyone to choose whether to accept or disregard them and so become either a Gurmukh or a Manmukh. Simple isn't it? A Sikh prays for "Sarbat Ka Bhalla" meaning everyones well being not just for a particular religion sect creed or colour tell me of another religion that prays for all of humanity? Be proud that you are a Sikh and pray that you can obey all that the Guru Granth Sahib teaches.

Comments

Guru Gobind Singh sacrificed his whole family for us but it saddens me when I see sikhs thinking they are so cool with their half shaven beards and moustaches and copying the western culture. How can you call yourselves Sikhs? You should bury your head in shame.If you read our history you will come across martyrs who were prepared to give their lives rather than cut their hair or give up sikhism. Don't think long hair and beard is only for sikhs. Both will be foundin all major religions. Guru Gobind Singh was the one who finally made it one of the five symbols when he created the Khalsa in Gods image. He gave the name Singh for all men and Kaur for all women. Sadly here we are now disregarding Singh and using our caste names and women using Singh instead of Kaur Don't you think Guru Gobind Singh could have used his caste name if he wanted to and given women the same surname as men.No men were to be lionhearted and women Princesses to be treated with respect and honour. But we think we know better than Guru Ji because we are "Modern" How dare we, we are slapping him in the face and saying we don't care about your sacrifices and why you created the Khalsa. Things are different now and we are educated and much cleverer. Take a moment and think. What has changed How can the truth and fundamentals of life change what was true then is true now. There is one God He was True He is True and Will be True and the Guru Granth Sahib has given us the path to reach him everything else in life is superflouse. Please everyone look at yourselves and what you are doing. If you call yourself a Sikh than you have to take the whole "package" you cannot pick and choose and expect to receive the almightys blessings. Can you? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

THERE IS AN IMENSE AMOUNT OF ASPECTS ABOUT SIKHISM WHICH MAKE YOU REALISE THAT THE FAITH CAN NEVER BE FORFITTED FOR ANOTHER. OUR HERITAGE IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS ABOUT OUR RELIGION. THE SAINT-WARRIOR TEACHINGS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND ALONG WITH THIS IS AN UNDERLYING PRINCIPLE OF EQUALITY BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN.

OUR RELIGION TEACHES US TO LOVE G-D, NOT FEAR HIM LIKE MANY OTHER RELIGIONS. HOWEVER, I FEEL THAT THIS HAS BEEN ABUSED BY SOME WHO THEN SEE THIS FAITH AS A 'EASY' RELIGION. I THINK BOOKS ARE AN EXCELLENT SOURCE FOR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT OUR FAITH, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR YOUTH, INCLUDING ME. THESE TELLS US THE FACTS ABOUT OUR RELIGION AND SEPARATE OUR DESIRES (WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR, SUCH AS THINGS LIKE MEAT-EATING, ALCHOL CONSUMPTION?) AND WHAT ARE THE ACTUAL TEACHINGS OF OUR GURUS.

Being a Sikh you are born with all the wisdom and perfect teacher guiding it and you are adviced about the purpose of life, how to live, think, act, lead, to be good student, what is to be done and not to be done and ultimately we are born to worship the almighty of God directly and not middle persons who claim themselves to be son of God or person who will take your prayers to him.We know all the persons who tells about God are saints but they are just ready reckoners to stop us from distraction. We have Guru(teacher) who reaches all the nook and corner of the world and one can talk to him, feel him for taking guidence when you are in confusing state of mind.He is the source through holy Guru Granth saheb, that we see God, feel him, have faith in him, love him and dont have the feeling of afraid of death `casue a true sikh have seen him who does everything according to his wish. So I dont have feeling of tension,bouring,allofness,scare,worry becouse I see him everywhere through the teaching and blessing of our humanity teacher Shri Guru Granth sahebji. Satnam singh Setia

I appreciate your combing for Sikh writers which is the need of the hour and wish to particiapte in this project where writting about Guru and their teaching which is required by the humanity irrespective of caste and creed.We need propogating through press, local Gurudwara`s message board and so on.So that Young sikh generation comes up for more writtings about Guru`s message for the peace of the world.

I am Not a sikh, I am a Hindu Punjabi and always felt scared o go to punjab to my mother's family because of terrorism till things got better sometime ago. I feel proud to leave from the younger genmeration who talk about the greatness of sikhism and not degrade other. Hindus and Sikhs are two sides of the same coin. They are one and should remain one. My grandma always took me to a gurudwara and not a temple, but after '84 riots india when I was 7, I got hit by 2 youth sikh boys, I hated sikhism for some time after that till in 89 I made a good friend whose name was Rajpal Singh Chadha.

The coolest thing about the sikh or sardars is that they have different identity. they can be recognized in millions by there turban. Another thing important or coolest what u say about the sikh is that they have a good attention towards god and they are enthusatically have a good approach towards God. Sikh , they don't preach idealism or a type of caste system . In them they all are brothers. In sikhism they preach no God, they preach their teachers known as Gurus. Sikh have a numero uno identity when they add SINGH with their name as Ramandeep Singh Matharu . This word - SINGH is which refers to a tiger . Therefore their power is not less then a tiger. Atlast i conclude Sikh are the only one in themselves.

Well a very interesting question. What strikes me to most, and many will agree, is this balance of Yodh mai and Shant Mai bani-and so spirit, that of which a true SINGH acquires from the Guru. It is this balance, i believe, which has allowed for the Khalsa to servive, even after the most bloodiest of times (many a holocost, etc). Shuster Vidaa is a clear example of the Khalsa at its finest, it is said that the Khalsa at a piont in history were so fluent in this art, that a single Khalsa was skilled enougth to be able to dance around tens of opposing worriers all weilding their weapons and such. Also the Yodh Mai has allowed the Khalsa to understand and appreciate time and certumstance. And it is this diversity to see the point of ones actions, and not to do things just for the sake of it, that has allowed for the Khalsa to inpress and capture the hearts of many person including me, and this is a small reason why i believe it is cool being a Sikh.

our values, beliefs and perspective on life.

Comments

I am dissapointed with Sikhs and especially Jats of today. They no nothing of their culture and most are idiots. The following thesis is of the way western Jat Sikhs are humiliating themselves and their religion.

First of all many of my Jat Sikh brothers will look at the title and say I have spelt jat wrong. Jatt is officially spelt as Jat, no double t. This is a common mistakes made by Jat’s. Secondly it must be noted, that being Jat, is contradictory to our predominant religion, (being Sikhism).

My aim is to form a common bond between all other Punjabi Jats over the world in order to uphold our traditional values, character traits, culture and maintain our responsibility, in our righteous place, at the forefront of every struggle for the well being of the common people, as has been done by our forefathers throughout our history.

The abolishment of the caste system in Sikh philosophy, directly opposes the division of persons, within a community, based on their social rank, occupation, or wealth accumulation, (caste). So why am I writing this article. I feel even that what it means to be a jat should not be forgotten. We have a history and philosophy which is unique and our values should be cherished.

In Punjab, as in other parts of India, people were classed by their occupation. The Jats, as a "class" of people were farmers or large land owners. It also should be known, that Jats, are considered a race of people extending from the Macedonian settlement in the North Western region of the Indian Continent, (328BC), during the conquest by Alexander the Great. Jat’s have been around before Christ and before Sikhism ever came about. The formal western definition of Jats is: "Jats, Indo-Aryan people, living mainly in the states of Punjab, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh in north western India as well as eastern Pakistan. The Jats are tall, with light brown skin and dark eyes and hair. They are Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. Their principal occupation is farming." ("Jats," Microsoft (R) Encarta. Copyright (c) 1995 Microsoft Corporation. Copyright (c) 1995 Funk & Wagnall's Corporation)

What does it mean to be a true Jat. Even though Sikhism is against anything that upholds a caste system. Many of the underlying principles of being a Jat are: A true Jat must be honest and truthful at all times. Jats are hardworking, they are self sufficient they do not depend on others for their survival. In India, they work hard and live off the land, they value mother Earth because it gives them there livelihood. To a jat honour/ respect (izzat) is everything. Family honour, respect for ones peers. A true Jat will have Knowledge of who they are and where there roots lie. A jat conducts himself in a gentlemanly manner and dignity, he is not sarcastic or cynical. A Jat can enjoy food and his life but must remain in control of his senses all the time and never forget that it is all thanks to Waheguru. A jat will make sure, that his sisters, cousins and others, give respect and so gain respect. A true Jat is against asian girls flaunting themselves. Jat females have also become too westernised, they no longer where traditional clothes A jat will always help the poor or those in need. A jat will put others before himself, even if it means to sacrifice himself.(Qurbani) A jat will only raise arms and fight when injustice has been done, or in self defence and for the protection of the innocent. A Jat will stand up to oppressors of the weak. “Raising of the sword is pious and just, only when it is done to protect the weak from tyranny.” Quotation from: R.S.Gill, : “The true meaning of Jat”. 2001 (c). In today’s western world, it seems that the word Jat has become a negative term. (Western Jat is a general reference to young English born Jats Between 16 -22) Today when people talk about Jat’s, they are often labelled as alcoholic thugs, who cause trouble and are always ready to fight no matter the reasons. They are seen as heavy drinkers and lager louts. In todays society Jats argue between themselves over who can drink the most bottles of Bacardi and Whisky. Jats today are too busy getting pissed and fighting each other. It is true, that even in the past Jats drank and enjoyed their alcohol, but remained in control all of the time. They did not dishonour themselves when drinking. Jat’s like many other groups are becoming more, involved in drug culture. Today’s Jats have fictional notions of Punjab and What it’s like for real Jats living and farming in the Punjab. The majority of Western Jats have never been to India but think they know all, after two stiff Bacardi’s and after hearing three lines from Gurdas Maan’s “Apna Punjab”. I have seen it with my own eyes of Jats going to Punjab in their teens for the first time, their dreams are shattered when they have to face real life. Some who visit never go back. This is because they are too Western and can’t hack being a real Punjabi Jat. Many Western Jats go to their village in Punjab, thinking it is Bollywood. They are expecting to pull fit Punjabi Jatia. (Female Jats) The truth of the matter is if you look at another persons sister, daughter etc. expect to be cut up into little pieces. If the police found you chatting up a female whether she liked it or not, they would take you down the station and kick the f**k out of you and then ask your family for large sums of money as bail. Do not think you could sue them or you would beat them up, if you took them on, You might as well cancel your return ticket, it’s no good to you as dead. Western youth Jats can’t hack that people stare at you, this worries them. They find it difficult to sleep on a Manja, they can’t hack the heat, mosquitoes etc. These people who call themselves Jats or Punjbai’s can’t hack two or three weeks in the Punjab, they can’t wait to get back to England or where ever. If you end up in arguments or fights with other local Jats, who are also hot headed, you may end up in big trouble. The police in Punjab are very strict, you may think that you can do anything and bribe officers of law, but you will probably require huge sums of money to get out of big sh*t. In saying this, the police have changed, there are special task forces to root out corruption. so If you’re a student on holiday, or your visiting your uncle, then you are screwed if you do anything wrong. Honour and respect for others is a big value in the Punjab. Punjab police are well known for torturing those in their custody. DO NOT DO STUPID THINGS IN THE PUNJAB, YOU WON’T GET AWAY WITH IT. I feel if Western Jats were taken on regular visits to India, they would grow to love the Punjab, it’s heritage, culture and people. After all they are a member of this group. When they go back to the Punjab, they should feel proud that they own land, they should know where it is and how much land there is. Going back will keep their relationship with their families in Punjab strong. I am only twenty three years of age and have been back Punjab eight times. I truly love it there, I even got married there. I got married there because I believe Western Jat girls are becoming sluts, they have no respect for their, brothers, husbands and parents. They are too busy going out and getting laid. They can’t speak Punjabi properly and no nothing of their history and culture. Jat girls who are the opposite of the above statement are a rarity. When I retire, I want to move to India into my house in the Punjab and spend the rest of my days looking over the land I own. I enjoy the fresh air and he friendliness of my family and the people. Jats today in the western world are seen as lazy, uneducated trouble causers. This it seems is a very negative image of Jat’s but in today’s Britain it is a reality. There are very few true jats left who uphold the honour and heritage of what it truly means to be a Jat. It is very sad to find out that Jat youths go around saying “I’m a Jat” and putting other castes down, this is totally wrong, because it seems the protectors are becoming the oppressors. Even in the Punjab this is happening, the true Jat is becoming a mythical creature. If something is not done, the Jat race will become extinct. We will be nobody, we have no identity. In terms of culture and heritage and religion, it is not just Jats, but all castes, even religions and the whole Asian youth community are losing respect for peers, elders and families. They have forgotten where they have come from. Many Punjabi Jats have not been to the Punjab and know nothing of India, religion, culture and tradition. Many can’t even speak Punjabi properly, never mind read it. This is the fault of many parents who are too busy working to pay attention to their child’s upbringing. Jats and Sikhs must remember, they will never become white, so why forget your identity. I admit that Bhangra is very important, because even those who know nothing else about being a Jat and a Punjabi can at least have this connection to their roots and culture. There is one criticism I have to make today, It is acceptable for Jats to do Bhangra, and have Bhangra teams but why are western Jats playing the dhol. This is not part of our past and of being a true Jat. Dhol’s were usually played by other castes, all Jats did was Bhangra. So I don’t understand why Jats have become so involved in Dhol playing instead of Bhangra, even on cartoons, pictures they are becoming associated with an instrument of other castes. I am not criticising other castes or the dhol. Jats are losing their true identity. They are a unique group of people with unique values, who are losing their identity. There is no point being a Jat by name when you know nothing about what it means to be jat. So for my Jat brothers: “As you look to the future, don’t forget the past because without the past the living present becomes futile!“ Once again, before I finish these points of I must state that I am not against other castes. I am a believer of Sikhism, but I also believe we are all similar but different. All men are created equal in the eyes of the lord but every person is an individual different to the next, different groups have different points of view and an individual style all of their own. These differences should not be used to dominate others but remembered, valued and respected. By Rajwinder Singh Gill Lidderawala. Any views on my work positive or negative are welcome.

I think the best thing about being a sikh is that our religion does not focus on conversion. It is open to everybody and does not dicredit others. It is religion symbolised by warriors, martyrs and great people who were non judgmental.

Sikh and Sikhism has given a warning to evil and to despots: Be aware because the hunted can become the hunters.

We did not choose this role- it was given to us and is now a part of our identity. Abandoning that role is like asking a vegetarian to give up vegetables.

I think that it is important for all Sikhs to help each other out in business and beyond. In any capacity we can influence change.

I am a Sikh and believe in it, but i follow the teachings of "Radha Soami", which i believe in very much.....!!!! U guys out there should check it out....It is not a religion, caste...etc.......it is a way of thinking & believing...... No matter what the colour, religion, caste of a person, we are all equal to god and will always be equal....!!!

We are given birth here for some reason, being that we are here to reach god, the only way is via Meditation after being initiated by a perfect "Master".....and only will then u be free from th "Churasi Lakh" circle.....!!! Otherwise u will be born again and again into this world, making your karma's heavy...... So do something about it......."Jeeti Jeeti Baazi Na Haaro" "Kal" will make u commit bad things which u will have to pay for.......eventually....!!!! "Sow and u shall reap", do good karma's and u will gain the fruit of it....... I AM A SIKH AND AM PROUD TO BE ONE & ALWAYS WILL BE...!!!

IT'S IN THE HEART!! i can't explain it all (cuz i don't know it all)..but man, our youth definately needs to get into the books and explore, read, research, comprehend, what the Guruji's wrote for us...then maybe we'll have some more educated answers up here

Theres nothing cool about being a Sikh!! But there is the fact that we are unique in ever way, we can walk down the street and some can point out and say that is a sikh. That is if the person is wearing a turban, as a Sikh im scared that in this liberal day and age we are loosing our identity within the community.

After viewing the comments by sikhs as well non sikhs I was stunned even today-time of global unity-we are living in very dangerous and ignorant world. In a nut shell, I like to write about all this. The Sikhism in assence advocates only the one Supreme Who created the whole world and every thing and every one is under His order.He is birthless,deathless. He can only be realized through the Guru, all we are temporary and He is the Truth. Sikhism further asks to make main goal of this given life to be with Him by remembering His Naam and by living truth and love. One should be caring,giving and tolerant. Since all human beings are one race and all should be treated with respect. Sikhism doesn`t support voilence( as people like Gandhi thought without even studying it or consulting great person like Rabindra Nath Tagore); however, it asks to defend and protect the week.It regards all religions and criticizes only the hypocracy which itself should not be any part any religion.It also advocates equality and freedom of all human beings regardless of their origin or religion. I was also surprised to read what Mr Chuan said about Sikh-Gurus. Let me make it clear to him onething that by reading merely anything cannot make anybody scholar. Guru Nanak and other nine masters just repeated what the first Guru said and Guru Nanak Himself declared"Na ko Hindu na ko Musalman: how anybody can level Him with either of one? Guru Gobind Singh ji said:Ram Raheem,Puraan Quraan anek kahen matt ek na manion" How any body can relate Durga Devi to Him? Actually, to make people understand the Gurus used all the pervailing names related to spirituality, that is it. Please learn how to respect the religions instead of misinterpretting them. I believe, as per Gurbani, it doesn`t mean what faith one belives in since all religions teach ethics to humanity. We should be more civilized today by showing respect to all religions.I met Muslims,Hindus,Bodhis,Jainis,Christians and Jews who are really spiritual and great.When one condemns another religions, his act brings disgrace to humanity. Learn to know how some people time to time exploit religuous feelings resulting in generalization of whole religion or the race. Be smart.I pray for all people out there to be more tolerent towards all people. To Sikhs, please remember Sikh Gurus stood for Muslims and Hindus and Muslims and some Hindus were also stood for Sikh Gurus.{Bheekhan Shah,Todar Mal} The meaning is simple, Sikh Gurus practiced: He is every where and in every body, whom to call bad, He is in all. Wars were fought by Sixth and tenth Masters only against oppression not against Hindus or Muslims. So let us convey a massage of Sikhism: SARBAT DA BHALA. Thanks for reading this. GS

i think that there are a load of brilliant things bout being a sikh but there are also allot of bad things. for example the A.K.J they are very good @ what they do simren but they are very "annoying" in what they say. The say that if gubani hasent got "nanak nam" in it then it hasent been writen by the guru ji's.I think that all these organisations like Babbar Khalsa are separating the sikhi religon far far apart and it is getting very annoying. i dont think that the guru's would want us to get into organisations they would want us all to be 1!!!!

Actually I'm more concerned what it says in the Guru Granth Saib, it's says women and men are equal why aren't the women treated equally why do women sit on the left side at the Gurdwara and men sit on right. Why are we not allowed to marry anybody else than our own cast, as in the Granth Saib says there is no cast. When we get married why does the man get to go first in the lamhe the women behind. Is it necessary to goto the temple if you believe God is everywhere; in your heart, in your soul, and in your surronding. I know we cover our head to goto the temple out of respect but why is it done, for what purpose. As being a Sikh I attend the Gurdwara every Sunday not because I have too, but because it provides peace but I have alot of questons about the relgion.

The Sikh name gives a pride of belonging to such a rich culture, the easy way to come closer to GOD without any rigorous rituals and so called agents of religion

Comments

Ironically, this great culture is on the verge of dissappearence, unless and until the new generation comes forward and try to propagate it amongst the sikhs (another irony) and other religions.

Waheguruji Ka Kahlsa Waheguruji Ki Fateh.

Brothers & Sisters, The coolest thing @ being a Sikh cannot be defined in just a few words. There are so many things that Param Pita Dashmeshji has bestowed on us, that describing one will be to do unjustice ot the other aspects.

The best part however is the identity of a Sikh. " Lakon Jag keena ik thaain, un mein miley ek Sikh Jaain, Jathan Bakan Mein Hans Na Dipey, Jathan Mrigan mein Sher Jyuon Dikhe." A Sikh stands tall & proud, even when the odds are against him, fo rhe knows that he is the only person who has the blessings of his Guru, "Sava lakh se ek ladaaon, tabhay Gobind Singh Naam Kahaon." During the British Raj in India an officer of the Queen was deputed to find out more @ this "Qoum". The officer reported to his commanding officer in a few days & said," Sir, we have picked up a rather dangerous enemy this time. I have seen them pray & in their prayers they ask their Guru's to give them the strenghth to Sacrifice themselves for their country. Sir, we can terrify people who dont wish to die but people ready to die is not our cup of tea. Moreover when ever i have tried to talk to any one of these people they address themselves as "Savalakh Fauj" they call themselves Bhujangi's ( Sons of the King Of Snakes) & they have the guts to look at death in the face. They pray " JEY SUKH DEIN TAAN TUJHEY ARAADHAN!! DUKH BHI TUJHEY THIAAIN!!! JEY BUKH DEIN TAAN IT HI RAAJAAN DUKH MEIN SUKH MANAIN." I think we should not tamper around with these people."

So my friends that is what is the coolest thing. A caste is big only if it has "Shahidi Sarmaya" Numbers of Martyr's. We are the only race who are 5% of the worlds population & our Shahadat is 100%.

I had my hair cut my beard shaven, I did this for the sake of fashion, but I met a Gursikh who had converted him self to this religion & I felt ashamed, I begged for forgiveness at Sachkhand Huzur Sahib Nanded, & my Guru took pity on me & accepted me back in his fold. I am proud to be a sikh & proud to be Guruji's Son.

So all you guy's who shave their heads & beards ( Pop stars, Bhai Daler, Bhai Surinder, Bhai Gurdas Maan & All other bretheren included), learn from the shahadat of Bhai Taru Singhji Shahid who had his scalp shorn off when the tyrants could not cut his hair.

Bhai Mani Singhji Shahid had his body cut to small pieces starting from the joints of his fingers, to preserve the honour of our race. Dhan Dhan Dhan Baba Deep Singhji Shahid fought with his head Placed on his palm to protect the honour of "Harmandar Sahib."

I salute all our Shahids who have made me feel proud that I am born a sikh. & if there is life after life I pray to my Guru, & Akal Purukh, Waheguru please if you want me to be reborn, let me be born as a Sikh of Guru Gobind Singhji.

"Waheguruji Ka Khalsa Wahegruji Ki Fateh."

Your Brother Balbir Singh

Sikhism is the coolest religion since it can show strenght and kindness both in great abundance. Open mindedness and freedom for all. Equal rights and full rights for women.

However, there are aspects of Punjabi people that must change and go against Sikhism. Firstly, we must accept people more freely. A major weakness of India was and is the caste system. India was easily attacked and ruled by others in a cruel way by others that did not have a caste system themsevles but exploited the Hindu caste system. This made India weak. If it was not for the Sikhs there would not be much of modern northern India left.

So why do we still fight over pointless issues of cast and sir names. While we are locked in this crap other religions are expanding and taking on more followers from outside.

Sikh converts are few and far between and that is something that we must change. However, it is often the converts that are the best sikhs! I see so many Punjabis born sikh but do nothing for themslves or to promote the religion.

We must accept others more freely. I would go further and say that we should actively be seeking to recruit others who may be of no faith or disillusioned with their current faith.

I also see so many Sikhs getting married to white people. There is nothing I see wrong with this if it is done correctly. But instead parents immediately disown their children( as they still call them), create massive tension so to make the non sikh in the relationship feel completely worthless and gerally give a very poor introduction to sikhism. I know white people that would have been happy to convert and in fact where very interested in sikhism but the parents of their partner simply made it impossible.

We have to accept the fact the 50% of sikhs live in foreign lands where they are in the minority. We should see this as an advantage and not a weakness. We should make it easier for others to join us and not close the door on them. We need new blood to expand and become stronger. After all we are all converts at some stage (30% muslims and 70% hindu).

In short we have to start to actively market the religion much more, broaden its appeal and be more willing to accept other non sikhs into sikhism by formalising conversions through our institutions.

"Waheguruji Ka Khalsa Waheguruji Ki Fateh!"

"Oho Uthaya Mard Agamda Variam Akela... Wah Wah Gobind Singh Aape Gur Chela!"

What religion in this world says " Sarbat Da Bhala " It is the sikh who asks this boon from his Guru Guru Granth Sahib every day after his Ardas. The Sikh community ought to be proud that we are the lot created by the Sword. That is why a sikh is a "LOH PURUSH" the Baptism of the sword is the reason why u feel a lot of enegy & zeal in you. We should be proud that we were born to save humanity & that we have been successful.

The population of the community is @ 5 % in the entire world but the spirit of Scrifice is 100 % I think our people should start searching their roots & follow the teachings of our Guru Shaib. They should once again turn a new leaf & become the Respected "SANT SIPAHI's" they were made by Dasam Pita Saheb Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji"

The coolest thing @ being a sikh is the way of life. You feel an aura around you. Whereever you go the feeling is that Pita Dashmesh is there watching you, correcting you, & helping you to find the better person in you. I have experienced HIS presence in my self & that has made me feel top of the world. Ofcourse I try to be the Sikh my GURU wants me to be. When I fail i see him reprimanding me & I try to atone for the wrong I have done.

I had shaved off my hair & had taken up all the viles of this world but, He has forgiven me & has allowed me to come back to him, & thanks to his inspiration I am a Gursikh once more.

Well people have different views on being a sikh. But the greatest part is in "Dasam Pita Guru Gobind Singhji" said My Sikh will be like : Jathaan Bakan Mein Hans No Dabe Like a Swan in a flock of Cranes Mrigan Mein Sher Jion Dikhe Like a Lion among Deer."

I Thank my Guru for making me as he wants, & that my friends is the coolest thing of being a Sikh.

A Ardas at my Guruji's Feet " Guruji, please bless ur sikh's so that they may stay RAAZI IN YOUR RAZAA, & may the community rise & shine so that Your teachings may reach each & every human being & may the world live in peace. Gru Nanak Naam Chadhdi Kala Tere Bhane Sarbat Da Bhala!"

that is a very good question.What do you think is the coolest thing about being a sikh. As a sikh the coolest thing is that being a sikh teaches you to see the guru or the light of god in everyone irrespective of religion, race, gender etc. It has taught me the to be humble so that i may learn, it teaches patience, but overall it teaches to love everyone, not to have hatered, NO ONE IS A STRANGER, NO ONE IS AN ENEMY EVERYONE I SEE IS A FRIEND

My ability to stand up, look into someone's eye and proudly proclaim I am a Sikh is cool. The word Sikh itself lifts me. Unfortunately, there are still some Sikhs who says they are Jats etc. I was brought up in a society where I did not even know such a thing exist until I was in India 10 years back. Being a student in a foreign land now, I have to be cautious among Sikhs for the fear of being prejudiced just because I'm not in their sub-caste. Fortunately the only Sikh family that I have met in Pitsburgh, PA so far does not prejudice about it although they did ask about my sub-caste. Why should there be sub-caste distinction? Isn't just being Sikhs not good enough?

Comments

Whoseever idea this is, it is a brilliant one. I was feeling suffocated because there really isn't many Sikhs that I have met in US, but now I feel like I'm coming to live again. I did not know I will have the opportunity to "meet" these many Sikhs in a day. Keep up the good work. By the way, is there any organization that can assist international Sikh student who is facing financial difficulties? I will appreciate if you can forward the information or contact details to me. Thank you. WAHE GURU JI KA KHALSA, WAHE GURU JI KI FATEH.

Waheguru ji ka Khalsa Waheguru ji ki Fateh. The coolest thing I think is about being a Sikh is that you are easily identified. If a Muslim, a hindu and a sikh with turban walk around in town, the sikh with turban is most easily recognized. The word "sikh" mean "student". Someone who always learns something new and then teaches it to others. I am very proud to be a sikh and to be born in a gursikh/religious family.

The coolest thing of being a Sikh? it's up to what people think a sikh is. Sikh is not just someone with a turban and long beard and 5 k's, but the one who follows the teaching of his Guru is a Sikh, which includes everything written in the Adi and Dasam Granth. So ofcourse, the coolest thing is having a Guru. Guru Guru Gur Karr Mann More, Guru Bina Mein Nahi Hore, Gur Ki Take Raho Din Raat, Jaki Koy Na Maytay Daat, GUr Parmaysar Ayko Jaan.

the coolest part of being a singh is being proud of our "NIHANG" heritage. we all originally belong to the nihang heritage, which has sacrificed great warriors like akali phulla singh, baba deep singh and more which has led to our history being formed, not by the modern day singhs who do not know how to use a kirpan or know how to fight.

Im not a Sikh yet, I have untouched Kes, but I trim my beard. I will become I Sikh when I take Amrit and abide by the full Sikh rules. The proudest thing about coming from a Sikh background is the unquestionable courage and sacrifice my ancestors gave to practice their faith and let others practice theirs. I feel embarrased today when I see the 'Modern' Sikhs of today, drinking, taking drugs, only wearing 1 of our 5 K's (KARA), going to pointless gigs where people only go for one reason, and worst of all, claiming to be Sikhs, thus downgrading our image and history in front of the whole world.

There is nothing cool about being a sikh! People today have distorted the religion so much that we are no longer sikhs but a cult which originates from hinduism. Guru Nanak want equality, he wanted to get rid of the caste system, yet we have symbols such as 'jats do it' with the khanda. How can this honestly show that their is no caste system. The religion itself was built on the philosophy that their is one god creator of all, yet when we go to the gurdwara the granthis their think they are the personification of god. Sikh were not told not to eat meat, yet when we go to the gurdwara they the tell you that eating meet is against our religion. How do they honestly think the khalsa army won their battles against the moghuls by eating potatoes? Sikhism today is distored and I'm afraid I am not proud to be a seek, neither do I belive that sikhs are cool. The religion itself contardicts, and manipulates the real truth. Sikhism today is just about wearing a t-shirt with a khanda emblem, going to bhangra gigs and going to the gurdwara to check out the local talent. There are no religion aspects in this. GOD IS WITHIN US, NO MATTER WHAT RELIGION YOU ARE. I was born as a sikh and a jat, but these are not the qualities which make me proud of myself, nor do I belive they make me cool

Comments

Religion is only a community you belong to, the most important thing is that you work hard and treat others the way you want to be treated. God is not in the gurdwara nor in notion of praying every day, but god is inside and a part of us.

i think our community needs to stop being hypocrits...On one hand they are religious, wearing turbans , going to the gurduwara and on the other hand , the community is well know for drinking alcohol like a fish...Please dont judge other ppl till you have your own life straightened out.... Being a sikh is not only by physical appearance or by going to the gurduwara, but also by making yourself a better individual by having love for god...by loving yourself.. not being greedy....etc sat sri akal...
