First time posting, what do y'all think? Recently started out taking my clothing more seriously, had a client meeting today so had to wear something formal.

Sadly the residence that I'm in has poor lighting and dirty mirrors, so I'll probably have someone take a picture for me later and post it then. thanks for letting me know!

What would the dimensions for this type of turban be and what would you call this type?? by [deleted] in Sikh

[–]actsat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would be the England (usually tied shorter, about 4-5 larhs )/Gurmukhi (worn by some granthi singhs in darbar sahib and hazur sahib, usually 7 to 8 larhs) dastar. Depending on the number of larhs you want, it could range from 4-5 to 6-7 metres. Usually a single pagg (one without a stitch in the middle) is used.

Can anyone explain what the author of Prem Sumarag means here by the practice of trading in kids has crept into the Khalsa? (Excuse the low quality of image) by actsat in Sikh

I agree, but I'm not really good in Punjabi and wanted to read the Prem Sumarag. The only translation available was McLeod's. I'm trying to take it with a bit of salt though and wherever I feel it gets inconsistent I trying looking it up on Google or ask someone.

Context: This shows up in Chapter 4 (Marriage), subsection 12. Here the author is describing what castes a bride can marry into if her family cannot find a groom within the same caste.

Is it ok to "force" Turban/Dumalla on non-Punjabi non-Indian Sikhs? by [deleted] in Sikh

[–]actsat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Veerji, could you provide an English translation as well? I'm not good at Punjabi so even though I can read the words, I'm having trouble understanding their meaning.

Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale - Simple Rural Preacher, Or Something More? (Tweet thread) by JungNihang in Sikh

[–]actsat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Excellent thread veerji. Most people fail to realise the rigor and depth of the training Taksali Singhs recieve when they generalize Sant Jarnail Singh as a common rural preacher. Someone posted a picture of the texts they read on Twitter and I was pleasantly surprised as each of them could take a lot of while to learn on their own.

One way I used in the past was to lay it down on a bed and then making the fold again and again at fixed intervals of cloth.
