  2. We need to be very careful here....they are clearly trying to get Sikhs on their side. "We need to do more together", "We need to stand together", then chanting "Sikh,Sikh,Sikh" so we get happy. They have to make it look like they are not against ethnic miniorities. A lot of the anger amongst working class Brits is due to the recession and the huge amount of immigrants coming here. The massive support for UKIP is proof they don't want any more immigrants here; we are seeing the rise of the right-wing. To those who still think that EDL is not against Islam please see the videos of their protests on youtube where they routinely shout disgusting things such as "Who the f**k is Allah", "Muhammad is a p**do". As Sikhs do we want to march alongside these sort of people ? Is this what our ancestors would have done ? British people generally are anti-religion, we have seen it with Sikh issues where they have been completely against us (the be-izati play, mixed marriages etc). Today it is Muslims, tomorrow it will be us. Singho, let's just keep quiet on this matter and concentrate on sorting out the problems we have in our own community. No other community is supporting them; I don't know why our people have jumped on this bandwagon.

  3. I agree, Daya yes if someone asks for it, but not for a dusht ! Khaalasaa Soi Niradhan Ko Paalai Khalsa is the one who looks after the poor Khaalasaa Soi Dusaat Ko Gaalay Khalsa is the one who annihilates the the evil-doers.

  5. I would say that deep down all the EDL are racist and anti-religion; they will never accept us as we are different. They are trying to show that they like us now because it is a publicity stunt....give it time and you will see their true colours. Our Gurus faced the problem of forced conversion to Islam by the ruler of the time and they were never against the religion but rather the warped translation of it by some of it's followers. Please read Zafarnama; Guru Sahib does not say anything against Islam rather against Aurangzeb who disgraced his religion. Very interesting video on the demographics, but it is ironic that many of the so called British values that the EDL cherish are the ones that are causing their culture to be wiped out !!! Liberalism, feminism and most of all the attack on family values are what are causing all other populations to decline while the Muslims have strong family values which is why they are increasing. Western countries are now legalising gay marriage......what do they expect is going to happen to them ? Like the video says, you need at least two children per family to preserve a culture, this won't happen with single parent families, high divorce rates, relationships outside of marriage, promoting gay marriage. It will happen with getting married at a young age, having lots of children, putting the family first rather than career aspirations, mothers who are devoted to their family and not arrogant and selfish as nowadays, fathers who are real men who can give children discipline. As Sikhs these are the things we need to concentrate on if we want to save our culture rather than aligning ourselves to right wing groups who are using us as pawns.

  6. Lolll, the truth isn't ninda. Did you even listen to Maskeen Jee's amazing Katha posted above? At least have some shame or humility.... Publicity will be the neeldharis downfall if they don't change their ways. Truth always comes out and prevails.

  8. And the reason why western govts / politicians dont clamp down on muslim migration and islami-fascist extremism is: 1) Decades of liberal policies of appeasement to muslim intolerant facist culture of undermining non-muslim populations. Whereas most non-muslim immigrants to western nations come to the west to live a better life and be part and parcel of the western society. 2) The increasing and rapidly declining rate of Christian populations of europe has left a vaccum of muslims to exploit meaning they will increase their numbers yet those muslims who want to leave islam are threatened with violence in this life and emotional blackmail of eternal damnation in afterlife. The white westerners are increasingly forgetting their crusader christian roots while the muslims are reminded about jihad and salahudinn almost daily so there is that zeal to fight the un-believer kufr. 3) Economy and international trade.... there are 32 muslim nations in the world the politicans are not stupid they know they need to trade and make money with these muslim populated area's. They cant declare war on all of them at the moment and take over the trading posts so they have to grudging bend over and take the shafting from the muslim ideologues who want to take over europe slowly but surely. 4) The western govts also use salafi wahaaabi muslim extremists who are allowed to carry out attacks in the west to clamp down on ALL our civil liberties and freedoms and they use the jihadi's to give them a cause for small limited so called "war on terror" attacks in muslim nations to basically steal their resources and make money in the aftermath. And another thing when people try to say there are muslims who helped Sikhs in Sikh history and some muslim saints verses in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. These muslims were sufi and mystical humanist types ones which are pluralist like Sikhs and were open minded. They had a liberal understanding of Islam (did not follow the sunnah or some verses of quran) that made them fall out of mainstream islam and would be declared apostate by most mainstream muslims today. Nowadays most muslim societies and communities in the world are extremely intolerant of other faiths and especially those who want to convert out of islam Sikhs really need to step up with missionary work to fill that vacuum that Christianity is leaving. Each and every muslim is ordered to do dawah (spread his/her ideology to non-muslims). Muslims has vast number of resources to do that with backing of 32 muslim govts to fund the drive. Sikhs at the moment arent even spreading sikhi to their own Kids and keep telling each other that its not a missionary religion how foolish! This drastically needs to change if we are to have a healthy population to counter the dark shadow of Islamic totalitarian take over in the near future.

  9. Off course Sikhs should not be naive and gullible to see that there are some real racists who infiltrated EDL and who hate all non-whites and all immigrants muslim or non-muslim. But we also should be ware of the islamification and islam problem that we are already experiencing in western countries, which our ancestors had to face in history in the indian subcontinent. Islam is a very primitive ideology that does not give the human being alternative to its ideology they must submit and follow it or be treated like crap in a muslim majority dominated society just look at treatment of our Sikh brothers and sisters in afghanistan, pakistan and kashmir. These lands were once under Sikh rule and everyone was treated equally and free to live as they wanted but under Islamic rule the non-muslim populations are eliminated slowly or quickly in genocides. Here is a video we should all wake up too it was created 5 years ago so you can imagine that the problem of islamification of areas worsened since.

  14. Watch/Listen to this....so amazing. Dhan Dhan Giani Sant Singh Jee Maskeen Jee.......always spoke the truth and was never scared to stand up for the Panth. A true Kathnee Karnee Gursikh/Sant and a true Panthic Parchaarak with Amritvela/Nitnem/Jeevan/Kamaaee to go along with all of the talk. Listen carefully for the details (especially who he lists...."Radhaswami....Nirankari....Kiley/Qiley Valey, etc" (Very relavent to this topic)... Listen to this...and then compare with the above documentary of neeldharis...all the bowing down...over-the-top materialistic items, show off, celebrity, etc. You will see the reality. Don't bring in the word "Ninda" to this conversation 'Banta Singh'.....just because you don't like the Truth...it doesn't mean that it's ninda. Truth is never ninda. And also....I watched the documentary....one of the worst things was......... MAJOR SHAME ON ALL PARTIES INVOLVED WITH GIVING OUT A PURATAN SHASTAR FROM SIKH PANTH GURUDWARA'S KHAJAANAA. WHAT DID THIS GUY DO TO GET IT? AND SHAME ON HIM FOR ACCEPTING IT. NO TRUE SANT WOULD HAVE ACCEPTED IT AND TAKEN IT. AND NO TRUE JATHEDAR WOULD HAVE GIVEN IT. IS THIS WHERE WE ARE AT AS A PANTH? STARTING TO GIVE OUT PURATAN SHASTARS BECAUSE SIROPAS AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH ANYMORE FOR THE HIGH-CLASS BABAS? I could keep going on and on and write for pages about what's wrong with the documentary and neeldharis....but there isn't much to say....Maskeen Jee says everything perfectly. Dhan Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Sahib Jee Dhan Dhan Guru Arjun Dev Sahib Jee Dhan Dhan Guru HarGobind Sahib Jee Dhan Dhan Guru TeghBahadur Sahib Jee Dhan Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Ajit Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Jujhar Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Zoravar Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Fateh Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Deep Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Bhai Mani Singh Jee Dhan Dhan Baba Jarnail Singh Jee Khalsa Bhindravaley Dhan Dhan Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh Jee Dhan Dhan countless other True Gursikhs/Sants who actually followed Gurbani and Guru Rehit and made sacrifices for the Panth without even a moments notice. People can hold many huge Keertan programs and invite people from all over the world and pay for their tickets and honour them and have huge Gurdwaras and complexes and have hi-quality camera companies recording them and making documentaries and recordings and wear fancy clothes and be bowed down to and have thousands of dollars/millions of rupees, etc... but if you can't stand up for the Panth when it needs someone to stand up for it...then it is all fake...all a show...all pakhand...all karam kaand.

  15. Agree..its just in the political correct and current environment we need to careful to endorse edl as a group...we should not endorse an group because group has members and has association, group has connatations be it good or bad based on the actions of individuals in the group For eg- I may agree some of the views - tommy robinson has but to say i agree with edl group (all the members action) in its totality based on agreement with some of views of tommy robinson is too far fetched and it be blowing out of proportion. Unfortunately outside world or media world is pretty black and white- they won't inquire if sikh in edl rally agree with all of the views of edl or some..they put it simple words- sikhs support edl..!! Another example i saw edl using banner with sikh traditional turbans and dress distinction with muslims on their facebook..they had sikhs wearing traditional dress ok but they made it appear on the same banner- muslim wearing traditional dress as fascist..that is a dangerous precedence if its set through that banner in the members of eld or other kkk groups..not all Muslims which are traditional dressed are fascist..they are trying to milk situation for its worth at the moment by winning hearts of sikhs...their intentions might be pure or malice that i don't know. I would wait until other famous political leaders endorsing their group before thinking openly endorsing their group. We should also have our league- like sikh british league and should take slightly neutral or liberal yet calculated conservative- stance than total right wing or left wing, should work with edl with some of their sikh ideology compatible rallies.

  17. Not sure about Sikhs loving the Royal Family and the Armed Forces. I bear them no malice but that doesn't equate to me endorsing and supporting everything they do as well. A gross oversimplification of the complex issues at hand, and I'm sad to say this kind of rhetoric has worked on some Sikhs. Remember the East India Company; I'm sure Mr. Tommy Robinson has done his research on how his countrymen divided and conquered for their own purposes. However his general message contains some rather pertinent points which cannot be disputed. I just get the feeling we're being played somehow. Just my opinion. I agree with Pehlvan Ji. The way to deal with Muslims who mean us harm is through Sikh means alone; allying ourselves with a frankly dubious right-wing lite organisation is a poor reflection on us. Now, if we DON'T (or can't) deal with these issues in a way befitting Guru Gobind Singh's Khalsa, then lets be honest and admit there is no desire on our part to do so. Lets not keep our oar in with Sikhi but cosy up to the like of the EDL. Saying that, good luck to them if they have turned a corner. If they feel their way is the only way to protect their daughters and their way of life I hope they begin to be taken seriously. But WE have an uncomparable system; absolutely perfect guidelines of conduct presented to us by our Guru Sahibs for tackling life's many, many difficulties. If we forsake those ways for others then we only have ourselves to blame.

  24. The soft, tolerant approach of the new generation is responsible for people like Hard Kaur walking all over the sentiments of the kaum without having to face any consequence. Quite literally, Sikh's have been turned into the laughing-stock of almost the entire world. Where are the old school saint soldiers?

  28. What she did and said is without a doubt 100% wrong and I am not condoning it in any way, but I just looked at the comments on her Facebook apology status and so many disgusting comments have been left by people who have 'Singh' in their name. There are many ways to get your opinion across but since when do two wrongs make a right? There are 'Singhs' on Facebook using the most foul swear words, writing immoral things about her mother (and what they would do to her mother), someone (not a Singh) condoning the fact that Hard Kaur's ex-husband was physically abusive to her (that's never acceptable no matter the woman is like). One Singh suggested smashing up her mum's shop in Birmingham. What a joke. What Hard Kaur did and said is gravely wrong, and a public apology on Facebook is not enough for her to wash her hands of this matter. But by people using the most vile swear words and talking in a derogatory way about her and her mother, she is not going to learn anything or repent. As a girl, it's so shameful to read some of the comments these Singhs have left. All of us have mothers, sisters, daughters and just think if they made a mistake we would still not want anyone to talk down to them like that. Instead we would explain the error of their ways to them with love and humility. Another thing is that nowadays when anything happens, it's funny how Joe Public becomes judge and jury of everything. Leave the judging and punishment-giving up to Guru Ji, for only he is worthy of this. As an aside, in the Bible it mentions "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone" in reference to the story that a woman who committed adultery was sentenced to death by stoning and Jesus said whoever has not sinned shall cast the first stone and of course all those people present were, in some way or another, sinners and Christians believe it is only Jesus who is free from sin, so only he is worthy to cast the first stone. But he didn't and the woman was forgiven after she repented. Let's not turn this into a debate about Christianity or Jesus, as I follow neither path except the true path of Sikhi, I just wanted to back up the point I was making. Forget that this is a Christian story and just contemplate on the moral of the story, as this moral is applicable to people of all faiths and all mankind. Below are similar references from Gurbani. Guru Nanak Dev Ji, ang 61: ਭੁਲਣ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਅਭੁਲੁ ਗੁਰੂ ਕਰਤਾਰੁ ॥ Bhulan Andhar Sabh Ko Abhul Guroo Karathaar || Everyone makes mistakes; only the Guru and the Creator are infallible. Bhagat Ravidas Ji, ang 93: ਜਉ ਪੈ ਹਮ ਨ ਪਾਪ ਕਰੰਤਾ ਅਹੇ ਅਨੰਤਾ ॥ Jo Pai Ham N Paap Karanthaa Ahae Ananthaa || If I did not commit any sins, O Infinite Lord, ਪਤਿਤ ਪਾਵਨ ਨਾਮੁ ਕੈਸੇ ਹੁੰਤਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Pathith Paavan Naam Kaisae Hunthaa ||1|| Rehaao || How would You have acquired the name, 'Redeemer of sinners'? ||1||Pause||

  32. I take a different approach to this matter. We have every right to be offended by her childish/offensive act but lets seek clarification on her intent- may be she was under influence of drugs..Lets try to see this from all angles. Even worst criminal on this planet deserve a fair trial, deserve to give their side and besides our own sikh faith have classic examples in our history -shows an potential of sinner turned saint even goodness takes over..worst sinners becoming saints by guru maharaj grace- kauda rakshash (cannibal demon), sajjan thug (theif), gangka papan (past /former kanjirir turned into saint). We need to practice more restraint and be more collective, grounded, focused, calm in our response when pursuing such matters , not just because its politically correct thing to do but our whole faith founded on first principle of "dya" - compassion, here in this thread sadly we have shown anything but dya there are already calls to beat her, hoping she goes to narak etc. If her intent are malicious and she compared sri guru gobind singh ji with someone to offend, she will get her share of bad karams, she will pay for it in her unique way but vahiguroo ji is not only garab gajinan (destroyer of ego and destroyer of sinner but also embodiment of dya- compassion) if offender repents and feel remorse for her actions she will forgiven in maharaj darbar as Guru Sada Bakshanda hai !! Sure we can pursue legal means if worst comes to worst but first thing to do is to seek this matter sensibly to find out her intent and try her to integrate back into our sikh society. And those who call her w hore , kanjiri and other labels just remember this, when tables are turned- we are all w hores in our own way when we seek worldly materials over guru maharaj love, bhagti-naam, gyan and seva..!!

  35. I wrote this not long ago, this is based on my research..take whatever you will- starting practicing true bibek picking up good things from my post and leaving the rest which you don't agree : Bibek is a very big term, has very broader meanings so i just wanted to make sure i break it down so its easier for people not to confuse or mix up things: Bibek literally means- bib= duality, ek= one 1. Bibek- Bibek mentioned in gurbani talks about inner bibek- every human is born with it- inner bibek literally means- discriminatory power of intellect within human mind to separate good attributes from bad and take good things from bad. Inner bibek/sensory intellect- is quite important as important as other human attributes such as- sat, santokh, dya, sabar, vichar etc. ਬਿਬੇਕ ਬੁਧਿ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਤੇ ਪਾਈ ਗੁਰ ਗਿਆਨੁ ਗੁਰੂ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੇਰਾ ॥ bibaek budhh sathigur thae paaee gur giaan guroo prabh kaeraa || From the True Guru, I have obtained a discriminating intellect; the Guru has revealed the spiritual wisdom of God. 2. Outer bibek- Outer bibek mostly refers to take in food, is inter-twined with inner bibek as its proven, whatever you have eat thats what your mind becomes. There are three types of food- satogun, rajoguni, tamoguni. Outer bibek helps us to pick right food i.e- satoguni food (not enrich of mirch/masala-rajogun) for bhagti/meditation/spirituality etc. If one has lived in the samparda's dera- one will learn for gristhi- you need 70 satoguni and 30 rajoguni diet to keep your other half happy (you know what i mean.) or if one chooses to be behingum (celibate) and serve sikhi- he has to have 100% satoguni diet. Based on my own research- both inner bibek and outer bibek is must in sikhi as they both intertwined with each other and its very important in gurdwaras but its unfortunate how gurdwara's are ignoring satoguni food very balanced and simple food for all sangat so that everyone can eat despite of their health problems. 3. Bibek of not eating from non -amritdharis/even amritdharis who don't have same diet as them, just cook your own food. This is optional. . If it helps them, thats great.However, for some people it further helps to maintain their outer bibek to make sure- food they are eating its consistent- satoguni. They have to ensure food they are eating its little, full of nutrients and mainly satoguni otherwise it will defeat purpose.. 4. Sarbloh bibek- originally started in nihang dals (still on going)to avoid strictly any kind of infiltration from outsider- mughal/mona's/patit and eat in iron- as its very enrich and high in iron. This is highest outer bibek, when there is bibek pehra- there is certain energy behind it, which cannot be ignored. Again its good to have but its optional and again- they have to ensure food they are eating its little, full of nutrients and mainly satoguni otherwise it will defeat purpose for example- having chocolate cake in sarbloh batta kinda defeats the purpose. Each one of bibeks have levels and each bibek above are landmarks in spirituality, its there to help you out- its a landmark not a destination- its meant to help you but if caution is not placed by those who are practicing it, it could make these landmarks into road blocks if ones wrap their head around it could easily make these bibeks into mere karam kandis/dogma/ego trip. It's not bibek itself which makes it dogma, its people make it dogma and thats the key here..!!! There are many stories but one such story in jivan kiranie - biography of sant javala singh ji harkhowale - where one of bhramgyanis broke ahankar of bibeki singh who made bibek into dogma. Best way to learn about bibek is from mahapursh. a) they know levels of listed bibeks- when to apply, when not to apply b) provide cautionary guidance to avoid- turning bibek to karam kand/dogma/ego trip. There are many those who are inspired by bhagat ji- bhagat jaswant singh ji who is sarblohi bibeki mahapursh here in Canada but those who are inspired by him please do learn levels of bibek from him- when to apply and when not to apply bibek. I was with him in grouse mountain all the way to the summit and i clearly saw with my own eyes- despite of him being sarblohi bibek he pulled up - plastic natural spring water bottle to drink water few times, thats a clear indication of mahapursh not making bibek into dogma/karam kaand/ dogma ritual and there are similar stories of my own teacher- sant jagjit singh ji harkhowale who is 70 and cooked his own food all his life- he is not sarbloh bibeki but he is very strict dietary bibeki, despite of being strict bibeki/celibate mahapursh knows when to apply bibek and when not to apply bibek and he does not pro-actively promote it to the sangat who wishes to visit him as most of sangat who visits him are in gristh jevan have partners have diference of opnions on things and besides looking at the affairs of sikhs these days, mahapursh obviously knows how quickly it can become dogma despite of him being strick dietary bibeki by looking at the sad affairs- he openly gave tarna in katha- to those who made dietary bibek into dogma.!!

  36. So often we look at our past so much that we forget there is a present and a future as well. What has passed can not be changed, focus on the present which will in turn make your future better. The only person you need forgiveness from is yourself The law of karma is absolute and can not be altered. Only Guru Sahib have the ability to alter one's karma. Start by taking a a deep breath in and along with this, saying (in your mind) WAAAAAAHEEEYYY and as you release your breath say (again in your mind) GOOOOOORRROOOOOOOO. There, you are well on your way already
