Sat nam Thanks for answering, everyone; On the subject of language/style of shabads, i've actually heard/read both "aye" and "nay" to diversity. I think the official position is "aye" except before the Holy Guru, as kelly kaur ji says. kdsji, i didn't mean for you to repeat yourself; i agree with your observation, ("majority of sikhs are punjabi so they create article with indian words forgetting That non indian could also be sikhs") but that's exactly the problem! Truth is, while i find little cultural/linguistic obstacles a bit off-putting, it's only a little bit; i'm here as long as guru will have me. And, as aad ji says, it's only irritating because it feels like slowing me down. I continue to learn a lot just by lurking here... learning what goes and what does not. Coming here i have a sample of sikh diversity... may it grow more diverse (with Guru's grace)!
