Sectarian Riots such as during the Partition and 1984 killing are the making
of greedy people who have no religious light but theDarkness
of Mammon. People who feed them are to be blamed. During Partition of
India, my late father turned a party of attackers from foe to our best
friends and guards. Falsehoods or KOORRRs are sweeter than honey but they kill people
in boatloads.

What gold has to do
with God but Mammon? So, this Temple is for the Mammon worshipping people
such as Badal and his associates and not for the honest people like Capt.
Amerinder who was not given the Saropa.
So, what could you learn from
this place? The Darkness of Mammon and that is why hardly any one knows why
Harmandir was originally built in a Pool of water.
Editor- Harmandir Sahib is not a place for Mammon worshipping people. If dishonest people
go there then perhaps some of them will become good while others will
we hope cultivate the desire.

I liked your article on
Divorce. Though you are right about lot of points which lead to divorce
I do want to say that in our culture divorce rate is also increasing because of the interference of in-laws. It can be the girl's parents or the
boy's but the family interferenc has lead a lot of couples to separate.
The Indian mother in law is still the most important as well scary
person for a new bride.
If we can all be mature and let there be
some understanding in this relationship marriages can really work and the
meaning of Anand Karaj will be understood correctly.
Good work Sona Kaur!! I think your articles are getting...
Reading this article brought back all the terrible
memories associated with the 1984-riots. So many people lost their lives,
homes and loved ones and so few, responsible for it have paid. But the sad
fact is that even with all our advancements and education, what happened
then can very well happen again. Nothing has changed.

sat sri akal ji This is a great article and
some facts. I liked the bottom where it explains bout Sikh marriage. and by
that..its true if a person understands the whole concept of lavaan
there is no way that anything like divorce can take place. It is a great
thing that Guru Sahib has given us. Just another great blessing from our
Pitta Parmeshwar...me ....proud to be Sikh, and thank God for giving me
birth in a Sikh Family. Waheguru rakhaa... bhull chukk muaff karni..

This story is delightful as the
first one ("A Gypsy Came Home"). I'm very proud of Sona! I want to thank
her and SikhSpectrum.com to allow me to read the stories, and bring me back
memories of my childhood. No matter where you live, a child is always a
child. Sincerely, Rosalina H. Yoshii Simpson

The Ghost of Indira Gandhi is very touching and beautiful. As a Sikh who has many
non-Sikh friends who in their hearts feel that the riots were justified,
you've renewed my faith in humanity. Thank you.

Sat Sri Akal. I am writing to encourage you to send out a message to all
members of the Sikh community concerning the outrage discussed below
I think it
would be appropriate for Sikhs to take action on this matter.....see below.
Someone defiled a Catholic Church in New York. While this was not a
Sikh temple, I think it is important for the Sikh community to voice its
contempt for this conduct and demonstrate its support for its fellow
Americans.
If you think that others should be
made aware of this and should voice their concerns to the Chairman of the
FCC, then please pass on this email. A CNN story relating to this matter
appears below. ====================================================
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- FCC Chairman Michael Powell ordered an immediate
investigation Thursday into a campaign by Viacom's WNEW-FM radio station in
New York in which people were urged to have sex in public places.
Shortly after the probe was ordered, the station announced it had
canceled the program that pushed the stunt.
Three people face
criminal charges after a couple -- encouraged by "shock jocks" going by the
names Opie and Anthony -- chose New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral for sex.
They were arrested along with a station employee who was broadcasting an
account of the incident.
"Today Commissioner Michael Powell has ordered
the enforcement bureau of the commission to proceed immediately with a
prompt investigation of this matter," an FCC spokesman said in a prepared
statement.
Another commissioner, Michael Copps, suggested that the FCC
consider revoking WNEW-FM's license. That would be an unprecedented step --
the FCC, in recent times, has never taken a station away from a major media
company. WNEW-FM bills roughly $19 million per year, and is worth in the
neighborhood of $150 million, according to radio analysts.
The
station was already in trouble with the FCC for alleged indecency on the
"Opie and Anthony" program. The FCC in June moved to fine the station
$21,000 for three broadcasts the commission found to be "patently
offensive," including one audio mix that "inescapably refers to oral sex
between a daughter and her father."
Viacom referred questions on the
matter to its Infinity Broadcasting subsidiary, which issued this prepared
statement:
"WNEW and Infinity Broadcasting do not in any way condone the
actions that took place last week. We have taken steps to ensure that this
type of incident does not happen again. The station's general manager and
program director have been suspended, and no new 'Opie and Anthony'
shows will be broadcast while the matter is reviewed. Once again, we
apologize to all of those who were offended."
Later, the radio
station issued a statement saying, "Based on recent events, 'The Opie and
Anthony Show' has been canceled, and will be replaced by other programming
beginning tomorrow."
