Not a Sikh, but....

[gregg]

I am not a Sikh, but would like to be! Being gay, I have shied from pursuing a complete relationship with God. Being an Anglo-American, my early religious training was conservative Christianity. With great relief I became aware of Sikhism and found that my sexuality is not an issue between God and myself. I live in El Paso, Texas where there is no Sikh community. I have been learning on my own. It would be nice to hear from Sikh's for support and information. If you have made the break from Christianity to Sikhism I would like to know your journey.

Hi Gregg. Welcome to the Sarbat community. It's very encouraging that you've been doing some research Sikhism in it's very nature is a tolerant religion. We welcome those who embrace its teachings from any background.

Here are some websites to help you along.
