Sikh separatists honored on 20th anniversary of Golden Temple storming in India Sunday June 06, 2004 By DEEPAK SHARMA Associated Press Writer AMRITSAR, India (AP) Thousands of Sikhs wearing colorful turbans and traditional daggers assembled at their holiest site Sunday to honor hundreds who died there 20 years ago when the Indian military stormed it to flush out Sikh separatists holed up in the shrine. The operation outraged Sikhs and is believed to have triggered the assassination months later of then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who ordered the military action. Hindu-Sikh rioting followed, killing hundreds. India's ruling Congress party has since apologized for s…

WJKK WJKF!! I have seen many people trying to edit Wikipedia but unable to have their edits stay. So I have put together this guide http://proj-wiki.akalikaursinghresearchjatha.com/ If you have done some specified research on a particular topic my beanti is for you to check the corresponding Wikipedia page and update the information you gained. If you haven’t done any deep research you can still help. Go any of the Gurus pages and add in a bit there.. there isn't really much there at the moment. ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤਹਿ !

Here’s the thing. There are many people in our field who do not teach the religions they practice or that are associated with their family background. It’s actually a norm in our field: One can study and teach a tradition as an insider or an outsider. Where we stand in relation to religious traditions does not preclude our ability to study them. When it comes to the study of religion, both of these perspectives, the outsider’s and the insider’s, have important insights to contribute.

Think about it in any war and conflict those elites in power do not want their proxies over run by new regimes so they fund covertly the power they put in place (indian despotic regime) to keep the populations that want change and freedom under oppression and persecution. Now we learnt in jan 2014 that thatches british govt and its military intelligence aided the Indian army and govt to attack the Sikhs at their holiest shrine. Why are Sikhs still asleep? Why isnt the pillars of Sikh society raising their voices and demanding action? Have they been brought out or have their sold out for their vested interests? Why are we not prosecuting the British government and others…

You. Yeah you. I've been perusing these forums for a while. And I must say the lack of intelligent thought is appalling. There are certainly some members like Harsharan000 who routinely post wise musings but are often ignored. Why mislead people when you are given this gift of being able to influence others? Don't write from your ego, write from your Higher mind and being a Sikh you should know how to get in contact with this Higher mind. That is all.
