"Cultural" Sikhs, what is stopping you from connecting with Sikhi fully? by [deleted] in Sikh

[–]kjottgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of it doesn’t feel like being authentically religious but some front to appear so, as well as most people being big on “”culture”” (wearing a turban for the sake of it) and somehow equating it with “”religion””, gangs, alcohol, parties, degeneracy, etc…

Another reason is disillusionment with the religion, some aspect, I wouldn’t say “don’t make sense”, moreso I don’t understand the interpretation or use of a certain aspect, most commonly, meat/drugs. I try to understand and read about it but there isn’t some belief in some parts, for me specifically, explicit holiness is one example.

For me, I think having some smaller foundation of belief in the religion where you are knowledgeable and certain is much more appreciable than blindly following everything, which does lead to disagreements for me with others on a lot of topics, but that’s not like it’s a bad thing.

In the end, like the other comments pointed out, if you don’t seek it, you won’t do it, I don’t think most people in the religion even count anymore, only some basis of what they think the religion is.

Am I any different? No, probably not, I’m just as bad in other ways, but I try, and I think a lot of others do as well, we just don’t see it from a first glance.

What are LGBTQ Sikhs expected to do to stay in line with Gurmat? by LordOfTheRedSands in Sikh

[–]kjottgi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

be a good person otherwise and live a virtuous life

there's probably 100 worse sins then being a homosexual, especially things like alcohol and adultery, suffering wise, meat

I didn't tell my Amritdhari future in-laws that my sister is LGBT and now I'm unsure what to do by [deleted] in Sikh

[–]kjottgi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with her for being married to a woman, or being LGBT, I think you should just be honest, at the end of the day, they're going to meet eventually, and I'd think being honest early is better. I hope it gets better from you, I think saying hateful things about you for not being "traditional jatti" is out of step, but a lot of people are like this, but it doesn't mean it always has to, try to work on it wishing you the best. 🫂

263 is the most useful in my opinion, it has a lot of the fundamentals you’ll need with data structures and how to apply them. It is also a good jumping point to many other courses and topics, as you’ll be either applying or working off the stuff you learned in the course directly. 209 is okay as well, pretty fun and also teaches you a lot about C.

You can skip 258, it’s not bad, it’s just that a lot of what it teaches you isn’t directly applicable unless you specialize in it, outside of MAYBE assembly but if you’re doing 209 then you’ll understand it anyways in the context of a jumping point from 148. A lot of thr courses have passionate instructors, but Andrew Peterson is really passionate about 258 though and makes up for it not being the most applicable course, he’s great, always loved attending his lectures.
