Other day my 7 year old asked me relevance of big wings of an airplane.. I had to refer to Seagull/Eagles and show him how these birds glide in the sky due to bigger wing span and smaller birds can't..

See lessGurbani is directional and references from what used to happen around people (in nature) to give examples and guidance..
though I feel sorry and guilt – that next generation won’t see some of these birds and won’t be able to relate the gurbani due to climate issues..
Think as a Sikh we need to be more climate aware (mother nature) – My personal advise to self..
Why is an amritdhari considered superior to a non amritdhari when Sikhi teaches us about equality?
Is this your question or observation? Ignore if someone acts superior; his/her inner conscious knows his state..

say – a child’s parents want them to eat veggies which they due to experience and worldly knowledge know that its good for the child’s growth and well being.
Similarly sikh’s parent ‘our Guru’ knows that the hair has a purpose for spiritual well being, energy epicentre and what not; so being a responsible parent advised not to cut hair.
Of course as a child we hate our parents for feeding veggies but realise when we grow up; the pity is we are not growing up (nor our parents) spiritually (kotan mein koi -> one in crores knows) to realise the value of hair.
If we look around lot of spiritual people start growing hair (can’t comment on if that’s just to show off or they really get that essence).
my personal take – it’s there for a reason (in all Male animal kingdom as well – Lion, Peahen etc) so must mean something; I wish I can feel that essence at some point in my life and hope for others as well..

See lessI have some patches in my uncut beard and do not want to cut it. Can I get some advice on how to handle this?
Suggest to see a dermatologist. Someone in my circle had similar problem and was given a serum and injection as it was bacterial infection in his case but also to fill the patches.

Why sikhs are not interested in Sikh leadership roles and bringing change to Sikh youth degradation?
God helps those who help themselves... We youths are so corrupt (morally and religiously - ਹਉਮੈ) which doesn't let selfless service. Being optimistic - there are for sure many youngsters stepping into Politics are have a hard time being given by political mafia; but hopefully by time it will change.Read more

We youths are so corrupt (morally and religiously – ਹਉਮੈ) which doesn’t let selfless service.
Being optimistic – there are for sure many youngsters stepping into Politics are have a hard time being given by political mafia; but hopefully by time it will change. I just hope they retain the passion and vision for service to community as they grow. For newer generation this will be an example to look upon and promote uptake in this direction.
I think education and desire to get better jobs/administrative roles should be promoted in Youth by building confidence and pushing in right direction so we have right people in right chairs to make decisions for self.. Schools/uni’s need to play an important role here.
Multi-folded problem needs to be tackled on many fronts with a vision and plan; and I’m sure people are becoming aware..
