1.Puranmasi has no relation to the Sikh's as such. It is celebrated energetically by some because they like too. The full moon day can be a very emotional day for some and they like to go to the Gurdwara. Sikhs do not celebrate this day officially as it has nothing to do with our teachings.

If the Gurdwara is celebrating this day, it must be the choice of the administrator or president or somebody of that position.

2. I beleive that their is a small fee for the Sikhnet chat. Please check on your own.
