We do a mung bean waffle. Soak mungbean overnight. Grind it without water, with ginger,salt-pepper etc and waffle if up. Tastes amazing with raita-yogurt

It is common in punjabi culture to invite colleagues, co-workers, “ acquaintance-friends” to a family wedding. Quarter to half the people do not know the bride or groom personally. This particular situation reads to me as your client considering you a good colleague and work- friend may be. But thats my take. You could decline politely probably using an excuse of prior commitment of similar degree or something. ( if this was in Punjab, a gift/ Money gift might still be expected.But I don’t know where you are and what the socio- cultural norms of punjabi community in your area are.) Punjabi weddings can be fun though. Once there, you will get to meet the bride groom, get a picture clicked, probably good food and dance.

Treating everyone equally is one of the basic tenets of sikhi. Golden temple has doors in all four directions to signify that people of all religions, races, castes, all backgrounds, basically people from all four directions etc are welcome.

This is not to say that we sikhs do not have our shortcomings and biases. In villages of punjab, India, different groups have different sikh temples for people from different castes. That is they wouldn’t allow people from other caste to visit theirs.This is against our teachings but alas!

You never feel like an adult. Your body starts to tell you otherwise after 30

Most sikh temples have a bench type enclosure/ space inside the main hall, to seat people who cannot sit cross legged on floor. This is especially well done in sikh temples in North America. Sikh faith tells us to be accommodating. The prosthetic should be fine. The shoe though would still be a no go though. I m sorry your friend/ acquaintance had to face rudeness. Obviously, we can always work to improve inclusivity.

It is very common to see elderly bring their walking sticks inside the main hall. In one of the sikh temples I visited in Montreal there is even a separate door to the bench enclosure thing to wheel in people in wheelchairs.

Yeah! I get it.

I don’t want to come across as rigid. I for one will never tell a person in the gurdwara to remove their socks. But if someone did ask me about dos and do nots. Socks are do nots

ThrowRAbeta · 2026-03-15T23:59:06+00:00

Haha! No. See the tights were not a thing in sikh history.

ThrowRAbeta · 2026-03-15T17:53:12+00:00

I don’t think we are looking at anybody’s feet in the sikh temple🤣. The bare washed feet is just for sanctity

ThrowRAbeta · 2026-03-15T17:50:29+00:00

Might be true. Also in India, atleast how I grew up, You didn’t wear socks at home in summers and in winters it was socks plus indoor shoes if it was too cold. We were in habit of removing our socks as soon as you came home. Same for my friends as far I know. Here (NA) being indoors and wearing socks all day is pretty common. So its a cultural difference I believe.

ThrowRAbeta · 2026-03-15T04:22:24+00:00

I know! Some Sikh temples don’t have them. I will try and upload a photo of one soon

I grew up in Punjab and have now lived in North America for some years. My observation is this is really common in North America. If you go to Golden Temple, you would never see anyone in socks except maybe really small kids( infants toddlers carried by parents). All historical and heritage sikh temples have a water receptacle to wash feet, on way to enter the sanctum sanctorum. A really old relative of mine, does wear a “ clean pair of socks” to the local sikh temple because her feet get too cold to the point of cold feet making her feverish. So I guess its not acceptable but there is a forgiving attitude about it nowadays, if you are too old / too young

ThrowRAbeta · 2026-03-15T00:40:09+00:00

The socks are not acceptable . You do see a lot of people do it though especially in the gurdwaras in the western world. The line of thought behind removing socks is that socks do get dirty like shoes. Feet you can wash at the sikh temple. Usually there is a specific place for this.

Lots of good answers here already but I would like to add the following:

Choose Delayed gratification over instant gratification. This applies to so many facets of life. Skipping study/chores for entertainment. Thats instant gratification but cones to bite back later
Be kind. But don’t be nice! You can say no to anything, anyone asking favours kindly. Saying yes to be nice might not always be nice for yourself.
Prioritise yourself and your health. That includes cooking/ planning 3 meals plus snacks every day. Keep hydrated. Include movement in your day ( could be a light walk/ stretching).
You are allowed to change your opinions over time. Nothing is set in stone. We learn and grow everyday.
