  1. I am laughing because someone downvoted because they can't accept the true words of Sant Ji.

  2. Was watching some of his videos, skimmed through this one. Missionary Sikhs always deny judgment after death, reincarnation, heaven and hell. This guy also denies judgment after death, reincarnation, hell etc missionary Sikhs often call all of this a "metaphor" They scrap everything, divine interventions, divinity, after life etc They just get rid of everything. Do these people genuinely believe what they preach? Or are there people using them to alter Sikhi ? A lot of them seem to spend many years abroad in the west. Its like they view Sikhi from a very Western, atheist perspective. There's a lot of reformist Christian priests and reformist Jewish rabbis who deny an after life, missionary Sikhs seem to be following that. watch @21:00

  4. These are fair points but the language used here is hideous. You need to reign yourself in. I notice a lot of anti intellectualism behaviour in this forum. It's like being an uneducated violent simpleton is celebrated.

  6. I'm shocked at the level of ignorant comments here. Dildos up their backsides? Kusrey? City people? First of all the reason they're called City Sikhs is because they work in the City of London, a financial district in Central London, it's got nothing to do with living in cities vs living in villages. 99% of Sikhs in the UK live in urban areas. That really went over the head of many people here. Do you expect them to look like UFC fighters? Puzzled - can you tell me your level of education and what you do for a living?

  7. well so far China has built an outpost inside LOC and the silk road motorway project is moving forward when this completes then it will be easy for China to attack deep into India, pakistan, iran, turkey and into Europe . Modi will goad then surrender territory to China and then call for boycott of china goods whilst giving multi-million contracts to China's CCP party . Osho was right India is a nation of cowards and two faced people. This is the reward for attacking Harmandir Sahib, killing sant lok and making Gursikhs miserable - destruction by Akal Purakh.

  8. There’s a really nice serial on Netflix, for anyone who is interested....with English subtitles... After their death, the key characters are called by Dharam Raja to explain the roles they played in this epic saga... They all try to justify their actions... The questions asked by the Dharam Raja, are questions that arise in the mind of all of us... The reasons given are very interesting... Good actors in this serial, well played out... Draupadi is played by Kasmmira Irani... ? The men are portrayed without Kesh, which is such a shame. In the Mahabharata serials, and even in Ramayana, people had Kesh. Sri Ram Chandra and Krishna did not have beards, since they were Avtars of deities, but they did have Kesh...

  12. There's a saying in Punjabi " people's job is to talk about others, and they will talk no matter what." (even same race still chugliyan or gossip about complex fair or dark, height too short or tall, caste educations, job, or even when to have kids etc. so its never ending bro. you do what suits the best to you, just a joke if you have a baby boy after marriage, he might not have as thick beard as you (this is my gossip) just to cheer you up bro lol wishing you all the best from the core of my heart!

  16. addiction is the symptom of extreme loneliness and disconnect... self-hatred rears its head and the person annihilates themselves through the weapon of choice , they are starved of connection, understanding and love . Your cousins really had the dregs as mothers I would have kicked out the Mums and kept the daughters because at least they had a chance of becoming worthwhile humans.

  17. Guest hope, I feel you. I really feel so connected to India. I have only been to India once and I really love India. I want to migrate there when I am older. I love India because there are so so so many itihaasik places and I would love to know more about our sikh history by visiting places.

  19. You might regret marrying someone completely outside of your ethnicity/culture - not now, but maybe in 10, or 20 years time or when you are in your retired years. Especially if she does not take to Sikhi

  20. I wouldn't take too much notice of the chugalkhors, these people are everywhere and if it weren't for your Chinese girlfriend, they would find something else to do chugli about. One thing to understand is that chugliyan only work when they have an effect on the person who the chugliyan are being said about. If you disregard these chugliyan and make is known that they do not affect you then these people will move on to chugliyan about other people. If you show that these are affecting you then these chugliyan will keep on being spread. Anyway good luck and all the best for your future.

  21. Pooran ka Khooh (The well of Bhagat Puran) still exists in Sialkot today. The visitors there are more or less muslims who go there to pray for Bhagat Poorans benevolence in getting a son. I think Qawwalli is sung there daily, if memory serves correct.

  23. maybe it is just rubbing them up the wrong way because her being an outsider IS being a better sikh than they themselves i.e. it holds up the mirror to their faults . Don't take it the wrong way stay on your intended path and Waheguru ji will help you , don't let naysayers rob your family of peace of mind . I myself have been along your path so know it can get tough ignoring the backbiting but you have to to suceed, they gave us months and we just had our silver wedding anniversary , four kids all brought up in sikhi , it's doable just be a strong and communicative couple . Stay in chardikala

  24. As per my understanding which might be incorrect, I always thought the wood used is from dead branches as they are dry and cured perfect for firewood. The trees are still living as whole living trees are not felled. Even if they are alive and dead branches from the trees are used, then they are still gathering kamai later for their liberation. The same could be applied to the ingredients used for the preparation of Langar.

  25. One meaning of Ik Oankar which is in dasam granth says Oankar was the sound that created all. Kind of like the big bang though there are over a 151 meanings according sant sunder singh.

  28. We as a community lack creativity. Art is a sign of development, thought, imagination, planning, depth and creativity, and then hope, inspiration. The lack of creativity in our community just shows how we lack in so many things. Creativity exercises your mind, gets you thinking, planning, imagining, makes you go into the depth of your mind. We as a community don't have any of this. Creativity helps you with these things. We should encourage our kids ( even ourselves) to be creative, get them thinking, exploring, these things will bring great ideas and discussions into our community, which is what we really need. Art, poetry, calligraphy, music etc Every parent should encourage their kid to pick one creative subject. Not just kids but yourselves as well. Get a notepad and start writing poetry! write your ideas, doesn't have to be Shakespeare, you can write using your everyday language. Write about your faith and relationship with Gurus. Get canvas paper, paints and brush and start painting, draw with pencil/pen. It really doesn't matter. We ended up creating a culture around Sikhi during the Sikh empire which was beautiful and unique, Punjab had a cultural renaissance during the Sikh empire, artists and architects from other Kingdoms rushed into Punjab for jobs. But soon after we were enslaved by the British and then/now Indian government and whatever was created in Punjab during the Sikh empire became a distant memory and even destroyed by Sikhs themselves!

  30. Yes angels/Shaheeds exist, I have seen them, but there are also demons that dress as angels to decieve people, I have also seen them- One really just needs to use their intution to feel which it is. Purity can be felt and darkness can be recognised by one who has taken their eyes out and can truly Feel. True purity is the recognition that all imagery is false. There is no Angel or Demon, Only Him teaching us lessons and giving us tests to see how deserving we are of Him. It is all in His Hukam.

  31. Seeing their videos, they wear Bana, a lot of their women wear Dastars. They promote Japping Naam, amritvela and promote study of Gurmat(they even created a university for that purpose). They are not against Dasam Granth. They just do Simran a little weirdly(seeing that video). But every Jatha out there has one or two points that are weird. But why do we ignore the rest of the things that are good about them and only focus on the the 1 weird point? I'm not a part of their group just to be clear neither do I have any contact any member of their Jatha. Punjabi people are thirsty for spirituality. Why do you think so many Sikhs are turning towards Radhaswamis? Now if Tarmala Jee is doing parchar and bringing people within the Sikh fold and help quenching their spiritual thirst within the Sikh fold what is wrong with that? I would rather see these Punjabi people going towards Tarmala group or other Sikh groups then to nonSikh groups like Radhawamis.

  32. Who is right who is wrong - make God/Guru Jee the judge of that people on here shouldn't be judging but taking action on their own lives.You cannot take away anything from tamala why the reasons are 1. he talks of naam 2. he talk of believing in SGGS regardless of his past - his present actions are viable -- people complaining and digging the past -- get a life - we all have a past none of us are perfect.life is too short to make judgements and slander - get on /get up and do something inspirational instead all of this negative vibe.

  33. lol Everyone knows who these khusray are and what they do. The issue is their version of Sikhi and how they represent it. They took a survey and 75% of their members support interfaith marriage, therefore City Sikhs reached the conclusion that interfaith anand karaj should be allowed. Why am I not surprised that an overwhelming number of their members support interfaith anand karaj ? https://www.citysikhs.com/2015/08/anand-karaj-sikh-wedding-ceremony-statement-from-city-sikhs/ They also advertise Sikh LGBT events on their website. Not sure if they have taken another survey to see if their members support LGBT Anand Karaj, if they have then it wouldn't surprise me if 75% of their members support khusray having Anand Karaj. https://www.citysikhs.com/event/lgbt-sikhs/ Nobody cares who they are or what they do, apart from fanboys who wish to be in the same rank as them. it's the Sikhi they are pushing which everyone has a problem with. Unless you're a city Sikh yourself, or look like one (which you probably do) then I don't see why anyone would support these people.

  36. That's a shame. I use to listen to his songs when driving. In fact he was a favourite of Punjabi long-haul and taxi drivers. Songs of lost loves and broken hearts in the pind. Pleasant, mournful voice. EDIT: Just realised I was thinking of Durga Rangila not Sardool Sikander. I got them mixed up.

  37. Mool Mantar definition 2 Ik Oankar Ik = one unique Oankar = the name of God. The Numeral one stands for a being that is unique and has no other similars to them. God is considered to be Sujati. This means God is the only one of his species and you can find no other like him. Unlike other species you can find them in numbers of more then one such as human beings. There are over 7 billion humans in the world showinh that an individual human is not Sujati as there are over 7 billion similar to them but God has no other remotely similar to them. God is Vijati. This means God has no other species similar to him. Humans have other mammal group, which are similar to them. According to science and the evolution theories of Darwninism and Lamarckism state that the primate family pf apes is similar to that of human beings and they are descends. Im this way there is no other species similar to God. God is Svaigat. God was born from himself and does not have any limbs or attachments. A tree is born from a seed and has branches and flowers or fruit. A human is born from another human and has limbs such as arms and legs. Other creatures such as chickens are born from eggs. Animals such as head lice are born from heat. God is unlike those species and was not through the means of womb, eggs, a seed or from heat. God is self born and is the form of self illumination. God is with our limbs, forms or characteristics seen by people but he is bound within all of his creation. Within all is the illumination and the Lord is the illumination within all. By this illumination the light radiantes in all. (Ang 13 SGGS) In this way God is Sujati, Vijati and Svaigat. God has no Des(Country). God does not have his own land, which can be named. God does not reside in any specific land but everywhere at once. The Hindu consider God to reside in the East and face the sun in meditation. Muslims consider God to reside in Meeca and face the direction when praying. (According to Sant Ji it used to be a Shiva Mandir and all the idols were destroyed when Prophet Mohammed took it over. Also Sant Ji says that it used to be white but due to the sins of people it turned black) (On Prophet Mohammed from what we know of Avtars we can conclude that he was ethier a Avesha or Nit Avtar) Christians and Jews consider God to reside in the seventh level of Heaven. However, God resides in all places all at once. God is present in all lands as Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji showed in Mecca, when the Kabba moved in the direction that his holy feet turned. The Lord resides in all of the lands Dasam Granth Ang 6 God has no Kal (time). At some point every being was born Ethier at day or night. God does not die due to this nor does he take birth. His form is immortal. Tod is considered timeless and cannot be placed into the concept of time, which is a man made concept. To be countined...
