Our beloved sister, Narayanjot Kaur [spnadmin], is gravely ill in hospice. Both she and her family are in great need of love and support from all of you. Please keep all of them in your prayers and your positive thoughts. She has been suffering for several years with a type of blood cancer and...

Being a member for over 4 years, I found the site[SPN] very interesting and educative both in terms of Gurbani and allied areas like sikhism. My main interest is in Gurbani and sikhism. Some of the doubts have been clarified and some do exist at present. I visit the site daily, may be, four...

SPN leader, artistotle ji, has taken some time off from school to travel to Amb Sahib where he joins throngs in support of Gurbaksh Singh. He is communicating with us by mobile device. His eye-witness accounts will be posted here as he reports in. I personally thank him for giving permission...

Can I ask out of curiosity how many people on here are learning Punjabi as a 2nd language (or 3rd, 4th, etc.)? What was your first language and if it is not a 2nd, what others do you speak? Also, if you are doing so, was it your family background that got lost somehow, or are you, like me...

Once again we are invisible! How would you set the matter straight? Here is the problem. The Art Gallery of South Australia is hosting an exhibition called "Realms of Wonder: Explore the spiritual art of India" covering Jain, Hindu and Islamic Art (with at touch of Buddhism in some of the...

It was just one of those ideas that broke unexpectedly into an afternoon chat between spnadmin, Mai ji, and artistotle ji ... somehow our favorite poets became a topic of casual conversation. I don't even remember how it happened, except that in this broken dialog that covered 40 different...

In less than 24 hours Delhi time SPN will be 10 years old. A celebration thread will be coming up on the minute. It seems that SPN went live at 10:14 am US time which would have been approximately 7:30 pm Delhi time, or thereabouts. The first post, that I can find, was a translation of the...

Hello admin jios I'd like to make a suggestion please. I've spent some time on a few other forums over the past 8 or so months, and I've noticed that while most have a 'like'-type reputation system, a lot of them don't display a list of which users like which posts. SPN does. I feel that...

Happy New Year to all of SPN! Thank you for spending the year with us, for your contributions, insights and support. With the Grace of the Guru we begin another brilliant year!

Obviously I am no better than the average person in terms of accumulated tendency to kindness, morality and so on on and have no less hatred, greed, ignorance etc. In fact I have very strong attachments and get angry more easily than most people. And when I think about people like Bin Laden...

I visited forum long about a year back and noticed the dodgy advertising. Why does a sikh forum advertise a business that cuts hair? Right when we need to be promoting the keeping of rehat which includes kesh(hair) this 'sikh' forum is promoting a a salon business that cuts hair. Personally I am...
