Article about White Sikhs by Russia Today

Few weeks ago I was contacted by journalist from Mumbai who works for newspaper Russia Today. Nidhi was doing story on foreigners who chose the path of Sikhism. Interested? It's an exciting article with a lot info about gora/white sikhs.

If this topic is something you would like to know more go to:

I wish I could speak Punjabi like them

Very inspirational video! What a punjabi! I wish I could speak Punjabi like them..
Although Sikhism does not have missionaries around world, more and more white people convert to sikhism. More people are discovering sikhism in the 21 st century. I have seen white sikhs in Amritsar (may be from Miri Piri Academy). www.miripiriacademy.org

Respect.

What is gora?

What is gora?
I found definition of GORA in http://www.urbandictionary.com/. Written by 3 different people

1. Term used by Indians to refer to white people. Literally means "white". "Gori" is used to refer to a white woman. Not derogatory.

Bill Clinton is a gora.
Jennifer Aniston is a hot-ass gori.

2. Gora -a white man or a man with pale skin. Gori is a white girl or a girl with pale skin.

oh kidaa goreyo teek taak hor sna pher gora koi nami taaji?/good day white man are you well have u any new news to tell me?

3. Gora- word used by Indians to describe the white people in US and UK.
He is a white English/ American (Gora)

Do you have your own explanation? Do you feel it's not polite word or is it ok? What's your view?
