Why am I Sikh? Why do I want to marry a Sikh man?


 Hello,readers!

So, I was a practicing Buddhist for a majority of my life. I've been aware of Sikhism and the belief system behind it. A couple of years I started reading more in depth about Sikhism. I attended a couple of gurdwaras, which is considered a place of worship for Sikhs. Just reading the rich history and culture of these brave men that martyred themselves for the sake of there religion made me quite interested. I converted instantly after reading these stories and how brave these men are. They do so many selfless acts,which is known as seva.

I've only told two people I know about my conversion and they found it quite interesting. They found it even more interesting that I want to marry a Sikh man. Ive been striving to learn more about the culture and the Punjabi language. I even was taught how to make samsosas,pakoray and chappattis at my local gurdwara.

I feel highly attracted to men that wear turbans and have long beard. I think they look wise and extremely handsome. I want to marry an Amritdhari Sikh man, even though that may sound impossible. An Amritdhari Sikh follows the 5 K's and are completely devoted to the Gurus and Waheguru ji.

I would have never thought years ago I would be following this path or wanting to marry Sardar ji Sikh man. I really hope I'll marry one in the next couple of years or so.

France, the 15th century.

France, 2014. Oded Yehudai embarks on a journey in the footsteps of Jeanna d’Arc, his idol since childhood. A chance stopover in a quiet picturesque town to smoke his pipe leads him to an ancient castle, filled with pipes.

His willingness to solve two pipe-related riddles and a short search through the ancient documents discovered in the castle’s rich library are about to completely change his life and reveal hidden facts that will affect all of history. How is the shocking discovery related to Jeanne d’Arc? And how will Oded’s fascinating journey in France end?

Elida,The Forbidden Ghetto Girl by Zipora Klein Jakob BOOK REVIEW

 


The unforgettable story of a forbidden girl born in Kovno Ghetto, despite the Nazi prohibition on Jewish women giving birth, and the risk of death her parents faced by defying the law.

1943, Kovno Ghetto: despite fear of the threatening death sentence decreed by the Nazi’s, Dr. Jonah Friedman, and his wife Tzila, decide to bring a daughter into the world, their firstborn, whom they name Elida, which in Hebrew means non-birth.

To ensure their child’s chance of survival, when Elida was only three months old, her parents smuggled her out of the ghetto into the arms of a Lithuanian family who lived on a farm.

When the Nazis eradicated the entire Kovno Ghetto, Jonah and Tzila are among those killed. Their only daughter was left orphaned and alone, dependent on the kindness of strangers.

The story of the forbidden girl’s life is gripping and hard to believe. She changes families, countries, and continents, and even her name, more than once. In her never-ending pursuit of love, Elida attempts to rebuild her identity and relinquish her miserable fate.



Hello,readers!

I received "Elida, The Forbidden Girl" by Zipora Klein Jakob.

The book is about a forbidden girl named Elida. She is forbidden because the Nazi prohibited births by Jewish individuals. And they are usually executed when defying these laws.

Her parents gave her to another to raise, when she was only 3 months old. Elida's parents are later executed by Nazi's.

Elida went through so much to find her true identity. An amazing story that would bring a tears to your eyes. She showed great strength after being tossed to multiple different families and finally realizing the truth about her existent. I couldn't believe this was a real person. I truly inspired to know she never gave up on life.

I highly recommend this book!

Please Don't Confuse Us!

 

In these pressing times, just a friendly reminder to all our brothers and sisters around the world. The #Sikh community is still healing, still rebuilding, still suffering from the hate attacks and misidentification post 9/11.


We are against injustices all across the world and in specifically Afghanistan. In these times, it's important to educate ourselves, so we are hoping we can work together to save our Afgan brothers and sisters and ensure no community is being wrongfully discriminated against!

Pray for Afghanistan



The U.S. must not abandon people to this human rights crisis and must see through a commitment to civilians and refugees.

The United States has a responsibility to provide a safe haven for refugees created by this conflict, as one of the main drivers of the conflict. After pursuing 20 years of failed policies that have harmed Afghans, the very least the United States can do is provide refuge for those seeking it, along with a safe, accessible, expedited way to seek asylum, as the Taliban will control the country by force, repressing vulnerable Afghans.


While it is in the United States' and Afghanistan’s best interests for the United States to withdraw, the United States owes Afghans support and a commitment to peace.

The 20 Time Keys of the Mayan Waves by Tolya Toker BOOK REVIEW



A journey of self-healing and transformation through the wisdom of the ancient Mayan calendar.

It is well known that time is one of the biggest scientific mysteries of life. But what if time is not at all what we think it is?

Hidden within the ancient Mayan calendar lies a world of knowledge that is the legacy of all human beings. This world of knowledge is of great importance and value in promoting freedom of consciousness and guiding our thoughts about time and its meaning. Its sole purpose is to generate a basic change in how we as humans perceive time.

The wisdom of the ancient calendar suggests the very real possibility that time is infinite and to experience it we must be in the present at every given moment. It shows us time is an internal affair and therefore we each experience it differently.

What Really Is by Ruth Bar Shalev BOOK REVIEW


Our true nature is simple and beautiful, thoughts are complicated and intricate. Learn to know the difference.

Our true nature is always present, in each moment, as it is now. We didn’t create it and we can’t stop it. Yet we’ve been taught that what we can’t perceive with our mind and senses is not real, that intuition is unreliable and living like this is dangerous, immature and irresponsible.

The truth is contrary to this. Our thoughts and understandings are by their very nature temporary and fragile. They come from the assumption that we can actually know or control things. And so we defend, attack, withdraw, and even kill or die for these beliefs. But when we do, the essence of our true spirit is brutally pushed aside and we lose so much of life.



Hello,readers!

I received "What Really Is" by Ruth Bar Shalev to review on my blog!

What Really Is comes to convey life and the world, not as the interpreting mind describes them, but 
 their original form.


A truly wonderful and interesting book. It questions life and the understanding of the mind of an individual.

An essential book to own and read.


I highly recommend it!

Starving Billionaires: The History of Inflation and HyperInflation by Kendrick Fernandez BOOK REVIEW

Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man.

This quote, by former President US Ronald Reagan, reflects the suffering of millions of innocent victims of runaway inflation and hyperinflation throughout history.

The reality of hyperinflations is exponential price increases, worthless currency, and food shortages. They are normally preceded by war, revolution, famine, or pandemics. In some cases, they are the results of decades of fiscal malpractice. Inflation has become a prominent subject of discussion in the United States and across the world.

There are 17 recorded hyperinflations in modern history. The most devastating hyperinflation happened just after World War II in one of the Axis powers when prices surged by 4.19 quintillion percent. One quintillion is one followed by 29 zeros. Prices doubled every few hours. The most recent hyperinflation episode is happening in Venezuela since 2016. America has never had hyperinflation, but they came close twice.

This book looks at ten prominent hyperinflations across history. We look at what led to the hyperinflation, the first troubling signs, and government malpractices. We also pay close attention to life for the common man, life for wealthy government officials, and popular inflation hedges employed by people and businesses. Finally, we look at how the country attempted to solve the inflation problem and deleverage the currency.



Hello, readers!

I received "Starving Billionaires" by Kendrick Fernandez to review on my blog!

This book gives an amazing explanation about hyperinflation and inflation. It provide examples of these concepts in real life situations. Very detailed explanations combined with graphs for each example.

It covers the histories of numerous of time Zimbabwe,US Revolution,Current Venezuela,Weimar,Ancient Rome era and much more.

"Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man."

An essential book to read and own. Definitely, a must have!


I highly recommend this book!

Soccer Greats Coming Home by Chest Dugger BOOK REVIEW

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them.
This famous quote, by William Shakespeare, reveals the mindset of strong achievers. But how does this apply to the all time soccer greats?

Are they born great? Do they come with magical powers? Superior coaching? Crazy life experiences?

To answer this question, we looked at the life history and autobiographies of ten of the best soccer players of all time. These players have outclassed and outplayed their opponents, rose to the top and have their names etched into soccer folklore.

Remembering Oak Creek.


 Nine years ago today, a neo-Nazi gunman murdered six Sikh Americans and permanently injured several more at a gurdwara in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.


We solemnly remember Paramjit Kaur Saini, Sita Singh, Ranjit Singh, Prakash Singh, Suveg Singh Khattra, and Satwant Singh Kaleka, who were killed on that horrific day. We also honor Baba Punjab Singh, who passed away on March 2, 2020 due to complications related to the injuries he sustained during the attack. And we continue to be inspired by the perseverance of those who were also critically injured at the time: Bhai Santokh Singh and Lt. Brian Murphy.

I continue to pray for these individuals and their families, and are inspired by the strength of the entire Oak Creek sangat, which set a powerful example of resilience for the entire nation.
