Are we really pointing out differences in the panth on a taksal-akj pyar topic?...by g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Rahao literally means "pause" and guru sahib is saying to pause at this pankiti because it is the most important out of the entire shabad. The rahao line contains the central message/idea of the shabad, the rest of the shabad explains or expands upon this line. Vaheguruby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Vaheguru jee ka khalsa vaheguru jee kee fateh After doing kesi ishnaan do gursikhs just keep their kesh out and let them air dry? The reason im asking is because my kesh are very thick and take forever to air dry and i hate having my kesh out. Cant i just do joora and tie my keski and wait for them to dry like this...but then my keski would get wet and how would my kesh dry in joora...kirpa kaby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Vaheguru I was also thinking the same thing, gursikhs should start keeping guns on them especially when coming to gurudwara sahib (as long as the law allows it). Imagine if a gursikh in Wisconsin had a gun on them, they could have prevented this incident or at least saved some people. Large kirpans and other shastars will not do much against a gun (but are still good to keep in presence of gurby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
"Now one can see the word ਓਅੰ does not have three words." Prakash jee, I did not mean oungkar is actually three words itself and can physically be broken up as such...I meant it's a whole new word that was formed from three previous words. Those three words are not found in the new word.by g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
No Prakash Jee I can't. Like I said, that's just what i've learned from gursikhs. I don't think you will find anything in gurbani that proves the words were combined. And if there is something, then I don't have the knowledge to find it. Bhul chuk maaf jee Vaheguruby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
"Onkar is made of three words - Akaar, Okaar, Makaar. i.e. Utpati, Palna, Nash. (Akaar/Utpati means he himself created everthing) (Okaar/Palna means he himself sustains everthing) (Makaar/Nash means he himself destroys everthing)" I found this on another site, this is what I was referring to. Guru sahib combined these 3 words to form Ik Oankaar and show that there's only one ie. Vahegurooby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
I think he means from the mool mantar jee... A gurmukh told me Onkar is a combination of three words; creator, sustainer, and destroyer (don't know the original words). Hindus believed brahma vishnu and shiva did these three things separately. Guru sahib said there is only one Vaheguroo who does all three of these things.

At least seven people were killed, including the suspected gunman, in a shooting at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., south of Milwaukee on Sunday. According to police, a 911 dispatcher received multiple calls from the temple at approximately 10:25 a.m. local time. An officer who responded to the scene engaged with the suspected gunman in the parking lot. The veteran officer was shot multiple tiby g singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Thank you Binodh Singh Jee, ill check the gurfateh seva center and every gurdwara i can find haha. Do sacha sauda and gurfateh also sell chola and hazooriya?

Are there any gurmat stores in toronto that sell kakkars? I wanted to purchase a sarbloh kirpan but they are very expensive online, if singhs could help me find some good places that would be great.

Khalsa jee, sorry to bring this up again as it has already been discussed, but i cannot find surmai navy blue color anywhere. Where do singhs get this color in toronto?

Bhai gurpreet singh, this discussion came up yesterday with another singh and he told me this happens to majority of people in the beginning.
