JSingh Ji - I would love to join but i am on the east coast and you are on the west. I hike on the Appalachian Train and usually do weekend trips from Friday Night to Sunday afternoon. I have met people on the trail who do all 2175 miles - SOLO and live on 50$ a week budget.


You can send a personal message with your email and i will stay in touch.


[code]Question time, I am fairly new to Sikhi my question is what does Sikhism  teach about Nature. For me it's my place to go when I want to be at  peace, to find god[/code]


Sikhism teaches us that GOD / VAHEGURU is everywhere and to live a Grehast life (family life) not to be ascetic and run away from life. Basic principles of Sikhism are Kirat Karni ( to do work -honest living ), Vand ke chakna ( to share one's earnings with less fortunate ) and Naam Japna ( meditate on the name of God / Vaheguru ). These were the basic principles of Guru Nanak Dev Ji - the founder of Sikh Way of life. As far as Nature is concerned - we have to live in Harmony with Nature and respect it.


I hope that clears up some of your quest and would love to go on trail and talk more about this .............
