CHANDIGARH - March 18: In a rather disturbing reminder of the dress codes forced on women by Khalistani terrorists in the 1980s, authorities in educational institutions run by the Shiromani Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee are similarly advising girl students wearing jeans or sleeveless shirts to "go home and change".
Though the gurdwara body does not have any written rule on the matter, its employees in schools and colleges across Punjab insist hip-hugging denims and bare female arms are too provocative and liable to distract male teachers and students. There have been many recent instances at Ludhiana's highly-sought-after Guru Nanak Engineering College, where women students were turned out of classrooms and told to stay away unless they went home and changed into "more respectable attire".
SGPC chief Avtar Singh Makkar actually acknowledges the unwritten rule. "We discourage girls from wearing anything other than the usual salwar kameez because Sikh religion doesn't permit dresses like jeans, pants or other similar wear."
But he insists that no one has been turned away for refusing to adhere. "There is no order against jeans. Our people only suggest and persuade students to do the right thing," he told this newspaper.
GNEC principal M.S. Saini claims he wouldn't allow even his "own daughter" to sport such clothes. "I would tell her that we should only wear something that is accordance with people around us so we can be a part of the crowd. Else we would attract avoidable attention," he said, admitting he had instructed his staff to keep a check on woman students in sleeveless shirts and jeans.
But some feisty young students are indignant. "Jeans are like a uniform for young people across the world but these old fogies find them provocative but they remain unruffled with all the terrible swearing and gang fights the boys get into," said one student who wouldn't give out her name "because they (the college authorities) could harass me".
Sikh scholars point out that dress codes based on religion are ridiculous and an unacceptable violation of personal freedoms. "There were no jeans in the times of the Gurus so how could have they have forbidden Sikh women from wearing these?" said the Ludhiana-based Dr Balkar Singh.
"The Taliban are only a few hundred kilometres away in Pakistan. Do we want to pave their path into East Punjab?" said a concerned faculty member

A: This question is asked a lot “Why do you keep hair?†Hair is a gift from God, therefore why should anyone throw it away by cutting it? Sikhs live the way God made humans and never cut their hair. For Sikhs hair is the symbol of love for God and the respect for everything He has given us. The way God made us is the most beautiful of all. To Christians, even the Bible says, “God loves us and cares so much about us that even all the hairs of our head has well counted†(Matt.10:30).
One argument heard often is that if you do not cut your hair, it keeps growing and will eventually reach the ground. Sikhs never cut their hair and it does not touch the ground, their eyebrows grow to a specific length, their moustaches grow to a specific length, and their beard stops at a specific length. Our body has a natural way of shedding and regenerating hair, thus after a period of time hair seems to stay at a consistent length.
Millions of Sikhs do not cut their hair and their hair grows to a specific length depending on their individual characteristics. Even if you still believe that hair do not stop growing and will eventually reach the ground, you should first consider whether to believe the one who has never seen hair growing or the millions of people who have never cut their hair? The answer is obvious.
Another important point is that Sikhs are not to use razors or any other such devices on their bodies, from the time of birth, for they do not cut their hair from any part of their bodies. In order to keep hair neat and clean Sikhs roll the hair on the top of their head. The hair is then covered by different types of turbans.
From the scientific view, keeping hair is practical because hair has many functions. It traps an insulating layer of still air just outside the skin, and thereby reduces loss of heat by radiation, hair absorbs harmful radiations from the sun, hair follicles can make androgenic hormones and Axillary hair provides larger surface area for evaporation of sweat. Although Sikhs do not need scientific explanations to keep hair, it is important to note that scientific explanations do indeed exist.

Labh labh ke thak gaye an asin,
Per us vargi na labhi koi,
Saari umar chahunde rahe jis nu,
Oh na kade sadi hoyi.
Karda haan pyaar kinna,
Us nu es di samaj na koi,
Us de piche lag lag ke,
sadi jind vanjaran hoyi.
Sathon ja ke durr pata ni,
Oh kihna kol ja khaloyi,
Us di na sun ke ik vaar,
mere dil di dhadkan moyi.
Rabb ton puchde an dasde sanu,
Kehri galti bhari sathon hoyi,
Hun jawaab dita hai rabb ne,
Mathon ishk karan di galti hoyi.
Kahe 'GANGSTER' sab nu yaaro,
kare pyaar kade na koi,
Jehra karda hai pachtaunda,
Kudi na kade kisse di hoyi.

1.ਮਤਲਬੀ ਲੋਕ ਤਾਂ ਕਈ ਵਾਰ ਵੇਖੇ ਸੀ,,
ਹੁਣ ਉਹ ਵੀ ਪਰਖ ਲਏ ਯਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ,,
ਪਿੱਠ ਤੇ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਵਾਰ ਕਈ ਵਾਰ ਵੇਖੇ ਸੀ,,
ਹੁਣ ਕੀਤਾ ਸੁਰੂ ਭਰਨਾ ਸਾਡੇ ਪਿੱਠ ਤੇ ਹੋਏ ਵਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ
ਗੈਰਾਂ ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਝੁਕਣਾ ਆਉਦਾਂ ਨਹੀ ਸੀ,,
ਪਰ ਹੁਣ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਹੀ ਦੇ ਗਏ ਹਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ,,
ਦੇਖੀ`ਮਨੀ`ਕਿਤੇ ਇਸ਼ਕ ਨਾ ਕਰ ਬੈਠੀ,,
ਬੜੀਆਂ ਔਖੀਆਂ ਸਹਿਣੀਆਂ ਇਸ਼ਕੇ ਦੀਆਂ ਮਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ!!!!!
2. ਮਤਲਬੀ ਲੋਕ ਉਹ ਹੰਦੇ,,
ਜੋ ਸਿਰਫ ਮਤਲਬ ਹੀ ਪੂਰਾ ਕਰਦੇ,,
ਅਸੀ ਨਿਭਾਉਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਸੀ ਲੰਮੀ,,
ਪਰ ਉਹ ਹਾਮੀ ਨੀ ਭਰਦੇ,,
ਭਾਵੇਂ ਕਈ`ਮਨੀ`ਨੂੰ ਹਰਿਆ ਦੇਖਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ,,
ਪਰ ਏਨੀ ਛੇਤੀ ਨੀ ਹਰਦੇ!!

ਭਗਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੀ ਫੋਟੋ ਕਪੜਿਆਂ ਤੇ ਲਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ
ਇਨਕਲਾਬੀ ਹੋਣ ਦਾ ਢੋਂਗ ਰਚਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਲੜਦੇ ਹਾਂ ਕੁੜੀਆਂ ਤੇ ਫੋਕੀ ਟੋਹਰ ਪਿੱਛੇ
ਅਣਖੀ ਯੋਧੇ ਖੁਦ ਨੂੰ ਅਖਵਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਰਾਤ ਬੀਤ ਗਈ ਹਾਤਿਆਂ ਤੇ ਬਹਿ ਬਹਿ ਕੇ
ਨਾਮ ਖੁਮਾਰੀ ਦਿਨੇ ਚੜਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਮਨ ਦੀ ਕਾਲਿਖ ਜਗ ਜਾਹਿਰ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਜਾਵੇ
ਚਿੱਟੇ ਘੁੱਗੀ ਰੰਗੇ ਵਸਤਰ ਪਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਇਰਖਾਂ ਤੇ ਬਦੀ ਹੈਂ ਮਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਭਰੀ ਪਈ
ਸਾਧਾ ਵਾਲਾ ਭੇਸ ਬਣਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਵੰਡ ਕੇ ਮੰਦਰ ਦੇ ਬਾਹਰ ਦੁੱਕੀ ਤਿੱਕਿਆਂ
ਪਾਪਾਂ ਤੋ ਆਪਣੇ ਰਾਹਤ ਪਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਭੱਵਿਖ ਨੂੰ ਅਪਣੇ ਸਵਰਗ ਬਣਾਉਣ ਲਈ
ਵਰਤਮਾਨ ਨੂੰ ਨਰਕ ਬਣਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !
ਦਾਵੇ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ ਵਫਾ ਦੇ ਹਰ ਵੇਲੇ
ਪਰ ਹਰ ਕੁੜੀ ਤੇ ਅੱਖ ਟਿਕਾਈ ਫਿਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ !

The Taj Mahal and the Controversy Surrounding Its Origins
The Taj Mahal, located near the Indian city of Agra, is one of the world's greatest architectural treasures. The almost supernatural beauty of the Taj Mahal and its grounds transcends culture and history, and speaks with a voice of its own to visitors from all over the world of feelings that are common to all humanity.
There are two stories of how the Taj came to be.
The Taj's Love Story that We all Know
It has been called the most beautiful temple in the world, despite the fact that it was built at the cost of much human life. The Taj Mahal is a real monument of one man's love for a woman. The story is a sad one, told many times. But it never hurts to tell it again.
In 1631, when his wife died in childbirth, the emperor Shah Jahan brought to Agra the most skilled craftsmen from all Asia and even Europe, to build the white marble mausoleum that is the Taj Mahal. He intended to build a black marble mausoleum for himself, and the link between the two was to be a silver bridge. This fantastic plan suffered a dramatic and permanent setback when the Shah himself died.
Its stunning architectural beauty is beyond description, particularly at dawn and at sunset when it seems to glow in the light. On a foggy morning, it looks as though the Taj is suspended in mid-air when viewed from across the Jamuna river.
This is, of course, an illusion. The Taj stands on a raised square platform with its four corners truncated, forming an unequal octagon. The architectural design uses the interlocking arabesque concept, in which each element stands on its own and perfectly integrates with the main structure. It uses the principles of self-replicating geometry and a symmetry of architectural elements.
If you don't want the huge crowds to distract you from your view, try arriving just as it opens or is about to close. A few minutes alone in the perpetually echoing inner sanctum will reward you far more than several hours spent on a guided tour. Especially if your tour guide is Murbat Singh, who makes it his job to find a new comic slant on the Taj story every time he tells it.
To really do the Taj Mahal justice, you should plan to spend at least a full day in the grounds, to see this stunning piece of architecture at dawn, midday, and at dusk. The colours and atmosphere of the gardens and the Taj itself constantly change throughout the day. Under moonlight the marble glows.
The Taj's Other Story that We dont Know
If you have ever visited the Taj Mahal then your guide probably told you that it was designed by Ustad Isa of Iran, and built by the Moghul Emperor, Shah Jahan, in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Indian children are taught that it was built in 22 years (1631 to 1653) by 20,000 artisans brought to India from all over the world.
This story has been challenged by Professor P.N. Oak, author of Taj Mahal: The True Story, who believes that the whole world has been duped. He claims that the Taj Mahal is not Queen Mumtaz Mahal's tomb, but an ancient Hindu temple palace of Lord Shiva (then known as Tejo Mahalaya), worshipped by the Rajputs of Agra city.
In the course of his research, Oak discovered that the Shiva temple palace had been usurped by Shah Jahan from then Maharaja of Jaipur, Jai Singh. Shah Jahan then remodelled the palace into his wife's memorial. In his own court chronicle, Badshahnama, Shah Jahan admits that an exceptionally beautiful grand mansion in Agra was taken from Jai Singh for Mumtaz's burial. The ex-Maharaja of Jaipur is said to retain in his secret collection two orders from Shah Jahan for the surrender of the Taj building.
The use of captured temples and mansions as a burial place for dead courtiers and royalty was a common practice among Muslim rulers. For example, Hamayun, Akbar, Etmud-ud-Daula and Safdarjung are all buried in such mansions.
Oak's inquiries begin with the name Taj Mahal. He says this term does not occur in any Moghul court papers or chronicles, even after Shah Jahan's time. The term 'Mahal' has never been used for a building in any of the Muslim countries, from Afghanistan to Algeria.
'The usual explanation that the term Taj Mahal derives from Mumtaz Mahal is illogical in at least two respects. Firstly, her name was never Mumtaz Mahal but Mumtaz-ul-Zamani,' he writes. 'Secondly, one cannot omit the first three letters from a woman's name to derive the remainder as the name for the building.'
Taj Mahal is, he claims, a corrupt version of Tejo-mahalaya, or the Shiva's Palace. Oak also says that the love story of Mumtaz and Shah Jahan is a fairy tale created by court sycophants, blundering historians and sloppy archaeologists. Not a single royal chronicle of Shah Jahan's time corroborates the love story.
Furthermore, Oak cites several documents suggesting that the Taj Mahal predates Shah Jahan's era:
*
* Professor Marvin Miller of New York took samples from the riverside doorway of the Taj. Carbon dating tests revealed that the door was 300 years older than Shah Jahan.
* European traveller Johan Albert Mandelslo, who visited Agra in 1638 (only seven years after Mumtaz's death), describes the life of the city in his memoirs, but makes no reference to the Taj Mahal being built.
* The writings of Peter Mundy, an English visitor to Agra within a year of Mumtaz's death, also suggest that the Taj was a noteworthy building long well before Shah Jahan's time.
Oak also points out a number of design and architectural inconsistencies that support the belief that the Taj Mahal is a typical Hindu temple rather than a mausoleum.
Many rooms in the Taj Mahal have remained sealed since Shah Jahan's time, and are still inaccessible to the public. Oak asserts they contain a headless statue of Shiva and other objects commonly used for worship rituals in Hindu temples.
Fearing political backlash, Indira Gandhi's government tried to have Oak's book withdrawn from the bookstores, and threatened the Indian publisher of the first edition with dire consequences.
The only way to really validate or discredit Oak's research is to open the sealed rooms of the Taj Mahal, and allow international experts to investigate. Source-> http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/A5220

10. Blind People Dream
People who become blind after birth can see images in their dreams. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion. It is hard for a seeing person to imagine, but the body’s need for sleep is so strong that it is able to handle virtually all physical situations to make it happen.
9. You Forget 90% of your Dreams
Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream if forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone. The famous poet, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, woke one morning having had a fantastic dream (likely opium induced) - he put pen to paper and began to describe his “vision in a dream†in what has become one of English’s most famous poems: Kubla Khan. Part way through (54 lines in fact) he was interrupted by a “Person from Porlock“. Coleridge returned to his poem but could not remember the rest of his dream. The poem was never completed.
8. Everybody Dreams
Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder) but men and women have different dreams and different physical reactions. Men tend to dream more about other men, while women tend to dream equally about men and women. In addition, both men and women experience sexually related physical reactions to their dreams regardless of whether the dream is sexual in nature; males experience erections and females experience increased vaginal blood flow.
7. Dreams Prevent Psychosis
In a recent sleep study, students who were awakened at the beginning of each dream, but still allowed their 8 hours of sleep, all experienced difficulty in concentration, irritability, hallucinations, and signs of psychosis after only 3 days. When finally allowed their REM sleep the student’s brains made up for lost time by greatly increasing the percentage of sleep spent in the REM stage. [Source]
6. We Only Dream of What We Know
Our dreams are frequently full of strangers who play out certain parts - did you know that your mind is not inventing those faces - they are real faces of real people that you have seen during your life but may not know or remember? The evil killer in your latest dream may be the guy who pumped petrol in to your Dad’s car when you were just a little kid. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces through our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.
5. Not Everyone Dreams in Color
A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. People also tend to have common themes in dreams, which are situations relating to school, being chased, running slowly/in place, sexual experiences, falling, arriving too late, a person now alive being dead, teeth falling out, flying, failing an examination, or a car accident. It is unknown whether the impact of a dream relating to violence or death is more emotionally charged for a person who dreams in color than one who dreams in black and white. [Source]
4. Dreams are not about what they are about
If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. The unconscious mind tries to compare your dream to something else, which is similar. Its like writing a poem and saying that a group of ants were like machines that never stop. But you would never compare something to itself, for example: “That beautiful sunset was like a beautiful sunsetâ€. So whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.
3. Quitters have more vivid dreams
People who have smoked cigarettes for a long time who stop, have reported much more vivid dreams than they would normally experience. Additionally, according to the Journal of Abnormal Psychology: “Among 293 smokers abstinent for between 1 and 4 weeks, 33% reported having at least 1 dream about smoking. In most dreams, subjects caught themselves smoking and felt strong negative emotions, such as panic and guilt. Dreams about smoking were the result of tobacco withdrawal, as 97% of subjects did not have them while smoking, and their occurrence was significantly related to the duration of abstinence. They were rated as more vivid than the usual dreams and were as common as most major tobacco withdrawal symptoms.†[Source]
2. External Stimuli Invade our Dreams
This is called Dream Incorporation and it is the experience that most of us have had where a sound from reality is heard in our dream and incorporated in some way. A similar (though less external) example would be when you are physically thirsty and your mind incorporates that feeling in to your dream. My own experience of this includes repeatedly drinking a large glass of water in the dream which satisfies me, only to find the thirst returning shortly after - this thirst… drink… thirst… loop often recurs until I wake up and have a real drink. The famous painting above (Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening) by Salvador Dali, depicts this concept.
1. You are paralyzed while you sleep
Believe it or not, your body is virtually paralyzed during your sleep - most likely to prevent your body from acting out aspects of your dreams. According to the Wikipedia article on dreaming, “Glands begin to secrete a hormone that helps induce sleep and neurons send signals to the spinal cord which cause the body to relax and later become essentially paralyzed.â€
Bonus: Extra Facts
1. When you are snoring, you are not dreaming.
2. Toddlers do not dream about themselves until around the age of 3. From the same age, children typically have many more nightmares than adults do until age 7 or 8.
3. If you are awakened out of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, you are more likely to remember your dream in a more vivid way than you would if you woke from a full night sleep.

I want go back to the time when ;
Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny- miney- mo."
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming ,"do over!"
"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "Monopoly."
Catching the fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening.
It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends.
Being old, referred to anyone over 20.
The net on a tennis court was the perfect height to play volleyball and rules didn't matter.
The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was "cooties"
It was unbeleivable that dodgeball wasn't an Olympic event.
Having a weapon in school, meant being caught with a slingshot.
Nobody was prettier then Mom.
Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better.
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park.
Getting a foot of snow was a dream come true.
Abilities were discovered because of a "double- dog-dare."
Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30 minute ads for action figures.
No shopping trip was complete unless a new toy was brought home.Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.
War was a car game.
Water balloons were the ultimate weapon.
Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle.
Taking drugs meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin.
Ice cream was considered a basic food group.
Older siblings were the worst tormentors, but also the fiercest protectors.
If you can remember most or all of these, then you have LIVED !!!

These are really intresting points. I mean I really enjoyed reading all this. Want to share with you guys.
1. When a girl says she's sad, but she isn't crying, it means she's crying in her heart.
2. When she ignores you after you've done something wrong, it's best to give her some time to cool down before touching her heart with an apology.
3. A girl can't find anything to hate about the guy she loves (which is why it is so hard for her to 'get over him' after the relationship's over.)
4. If a girl loves a guy, he will always be on her mind every minute of the day, even though she flirts with other guys.
5. When the guy she likes smiles and stares deep into her eyes, she will melt.
6. A girl likes to hear compliments, but usually not sure how to react to them.
7. When a particular guy flirts with a girl very often, a girl would start thinking the guy likes her. So if you treat a girl just as a friend, go easy on the smiles and stare ok?
8. If you don't like a girl who likes you, break it to her gently.
9. If a girl starts avoiding you after you reject her, leave her alone for a while. If you still treat her as a friend, talk to her.
10. Girls enjoy talking about what they feel. Music, poetry, drawings and writing are ways of expressing themselves (which explains why most girls like writing journals).
11. Never tell a girl that she is useless in anyway.
12. Being too serious can turn a girl off.
13. When the guy she likes calls her for the first time, the girl may act uninterested during the call. But as soon as the phone is back on the hook, she will whoop with joy and immediately start telephoning her friends to spread the news.
14. A smile means a lot to a girl.
15. If you like a girl, try making friends with her first. Let her get to know you.
16. If a girl says she can't go out with you because she has to study, leave.
17. But if she still calls you or expect a call from you, stay.
18. Don't try to guess a girl's feelings. Ask her.....
19. Hearing the words "I love you" is a great reassurance to a girl that she is beautiful.
20. After a girl falls in love with a guy, she'll wonder why she never noticed him before.
21. If you need tips on how to flirt with a girl, read romance stories.
22. When class pictures come out, a girl would first check who is standing next to her crush before actually looking at herself.
23. A girl's ex-crush will always be in her memory, but the guy she loves now stays in her heart.
24. Girls love having fun!
25..... A simple 'Hi' can brighten a girl's day.
26. A girl's best friends usually know best what she is feeling and going through.
27. Girls hate it when a guy pays attention to them just to get close to their 'prettier' friend.
28. Love means devotion, caring and happiness to a girl, in that order.
29. Some girls care about looks, some care about brains, but ALL girls want a guy who will love and care for them.
30. Girls want nothing more than to feel loved.

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.
THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
FOUR. When you say, 'I love you,' mean it.
FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.
SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.

*A woman dreams ... with her heart, dreams of passion, beauty**
*
*and peace on earth. *
*A woman cries ... tears when she's wounded...replaced with**
*
*smiles when she knows she will heal soon. *
*A woman loves ... with her soul, deep and true ... with all that**
*
*she knows..... *
*A woman tries ... through every wrong, ... forgives past sins**
*
*and finds the strength to move on. *
*A woman gives ... everything inside her ... she does not hold**
*
*back because of the fears that remind her ... she could be hurt,**
**be taken in, ... a woman protects herself with the love that lies**
**within..... *
*Only a woman knows the secret truths that hide beneath the**
surface of her warmth and kindness.*
**
*Only a woman knows the tender touch that can heal all**
**wrongs and relieve all fears. *
*Only a woman can give her all and have love left to give when**
*
*the giving is done. *
*Only a woman ... with a woman's heart ... can understand and**
*
*accept ... the many pains she will encounter. *
*Only a woman ... with a woman's heart ... can possibly know**
*
*the strength of her heart..... *
*A woman knows ... if all she owns was taken ... there are**
*
*parts of her, the best of her ... that nothing on earth can ever**
**take away ... the woman's heart, the woman's depths. *
*Only a woman knows ... it's the love within that makes her who**
*
*she is, and love without pain could be a love that is dead.* [/b][/color]
