I agree with you on the highlighting part but what will happen is once any news outlet especially western ones start churning out anti-Sikh articles it will be used as 'facts,proof,i told you so' by anti-Sikh elements all over social media just like how some miserable 'news' outlets in India keep highlighting every negative incident in the Sikh community globally and then these same articles are used by RW for years all over Twitter and FB for their daily anti-Sikh diet. Now if that Singh who has a different coloured Rolls Royce for every day of the week could get his hands on a small Uk rag with online presence and hired certain SS members to write articles...

To step down a level into astrology. You have your natal chart and it's aspects, you have transits as well which are how the energies are resonnating with your chart in the present. A lot of this is in the realm of predictive astrology. There is also however evolutionary astrology, where those aspects or attributes, Karams, are not considered fixed but activated or dealt with. Unlocked. And so even in the world of astrology I wouldn't personally be too hung up on the predictive aspects. It's a fascinating system of sociology and psychology if nothing else and it does turn out accurate more than just random. However. If Naam and Gurbani are the most powerful ways of eliminating Karam, then it is also the most powerful way to activate your chart aspects. If seven years is a certain way it's a certain way. Good people are beleigured in Kalyug. Take it as a compliment. You don't have any narcissistic family members do you? Lol. That'll make you feel deviled and cursed for sure. Just because something has a function doesn't mean it's for you. It's for people that need astrology. We have Hukam and Simran so we don't really need those lower level trappings.

Yeah. It's not love Jihad, or sex trafficking, They're liberating these girls.

now tell me why would any Sikh want to convert to a cult tht literally worships a dead man on a stick a man tht was the product of an affair with a roman soldier mind you

you are right i shoudln't have made this thread I was pretty angry with some things i saw on tiktok i will be better representative our community next time

Here is a video of the news story

India had such a huge population the British couldnt do what France Portugal Spain did in the Americas.

Pakistanis are such wannabees. They are kicked left and right by Turks,persians and arabs and still lick their boots.

He's pissed off and lacking anyway to control the upsetting stuff online. I agree his proposed approach, emotional, and well intentioned isn't the proper one. I'm not sure which catergory of equal to put people that actively defame Sikhi, the Guru Sahiban etc online. They're all equally foolish. But indeed a better counter is in order. I don't think him being 19 and really upset about upsetting things with a natural but ill advised reaction is exactly why the Panth is fucked. Other than highlighting it and using for our own media purposes, we could reach out to our muslim neighbors and ask them to put a stop to it?

has anyone here purchased/read bhai kamalpreet singh pardeshi's books on japji sahib? any thoughts? its an english commentary based off of sant giani gurbachan singh jee, taksal sampardai teeka, sant kirpal singh satogali wale, other katha sources

giani thakur singh's katha of japji sahib is based off of and mostly parallel to the sampardai vidya/sant giani gurbachan singh jees katha so it works and he is easy to understand

Here’s the thing, Basics Of Sikhi has been the main group to invite new people towards Sikhi as well as bringing lost people towards Sikhi in the West, not 3HO. 3HO brand usually goes more towards a very Sannatan view towards Sikhi along with elements of Christianity that’s it’s hardly recognizable as Sikhi even amongst some of our most Sannatan Sikhs.

Gnostics predate christianity.

3HO as a whole is a lost cause, but individual 3HO Sikhs can be changed towards Gurmat.

That's why I'm starting with brown.

'ghar wapsi' means 'returning home' ; so bringing 'home' those who have 'gone away' from Sikhi. In this context, what I really meant was to bring those white Sikhs properly into Sikhi in the first place. They already follow a lot of Rehat and Bani I think brown and white people mixing freely is unlikely to happen in big numbers very soon though

I can read it

I like this ghar WASPi. That where we drive the snakes out? Lol I'd counteract them with other foreign converts who are actually loyal to Sikhi. A deeply committed and melanin bearing group with all the right properties to dominate these fakes. Allied with descendent Khalsa. Overly civilized Sikhs they aren't worried about. They might find the motley crew of my imagination harder ro ignore. I'd accept pale skins but they would not be my target demographic. And they'd be vetted. Once I had enough momentum I'd try and bridge over to whitey. I simply refuse to have an all white Sangat. If that's all you can manage? There's something wrong with you. I mean says a lot when there's no melanin in a group.

Heavy tattooing?

They should be added to the list of cults we're not supposed to interact with at all, if they aren't already. We'd have to be careful as anything even accepting ex members of theirs who claim to simply have not known better.

Yeah hard pass on all that narcissism thanks.

Ultimately everyone's Karam is set aside. One way or another. There is no working it out or perfecting it. One day according to your own path perhaps alleviated by the works of a descendant, the book is closed. And you can guarantee there are demerits in the accumulated works of everyone. What exact type of Mukte family and generations get, and who that entails is beyond me.

If we are graced with Mukte through Gursikhi, our family and all our generations are liberated as well.

I don't know if this is Panjabi folk culture, or a clever way to stop people dwelling too much on the deceased, but I clearly remember being told (when young) not to remember people who have passed on too much, because it keeps them tied to this plane. Make of it what you will.

I understand what you are saying. You can ask her in your mind or out loud and wait for a sign. After my mother died I kept wondering about her though I had many dreams. But during the last one I asked her where she was and she said she was 'in India with her mother'. This made perfect sense to me.

Well if understand physics, we can go back in time and change everything

When we are reincarnated, are we reincarnated on the same planet/generation? Can we reincarnated to a previous to era? also when we die, does life on earth continue or it does it stop until we come back? And how long does it take come to earth? Is the time in the afterlife the same as here? madd questions lol ?

The main difference betwwen the dastarwalian bibian and the fashion pittian is you actually see them as humans with individuality shining from their faces, not some painted dollies lacking in personality wearing an overbearing costume

i would highly discourage to post pictures of others without their permission. it does not sounds nice.

That's why it's imperative we encourage critical thinking and education for young Sikhs so they can make up their own mind, instead of relying on celebrities or lesser sorts to "guide" youngsters. We should be our own role models. Never pin hopes on somwthing as fallible as Man. It will never end well.

I see. I've always heard others say a patit was someone who cut their hair and shaved, whilst a sehajdhari was a kesh and beard-keeping Sikh who hadn't yet taken Amrit.

Freedom to choose I suppose. If he wants to grow a beard and keep uncut hair under a turban, then I guess he's free to do so. I agree, it does send out mixed messages.

He cut his hair and shaves his face?

Badal is amritdhari?!? There's hope for everyone if that's the case.

I vaguely remember him saying a few years ago that he shouldn't be held up as a role model for Sikhs, because his saroop isn't a statement on his true beliefs. I think that's the jist of it, it was a while ago.

A surprisingly contemplative side to Big T, and a few questions I've asked myself in recent years. The most we can do on a day-to-day basis is work on ourselves and be the best we can humanly be. In that way, whenever, or if, situations arise when others require our assistance we will be prepared to lend a hand.

Sounds a bit fishy to me. I'm surprised the police didn't find a few kilos of RDX in the boot (or the trunk)

You're an eternal optimist, brother, whilst I am not in regards to this particular issue, hehe. Your way is the right way in a perfect world, but sadly this is not one of those realms.

Something invariably gives way in the type of situations you've described above, brother, and whether it's a Sikh male marrying a non-Sikh, or a Sikh female marrying a non-Sikh that something is more often than not the Sikh faith. I wonder why some of our people are so eager to abandon it with such relish? What is it in our make-up as a race or cultural group that leads to such a situation?

Is lemon and ginger tea any good?

That's a valid point, Big T. Some might say when a Sikh man marries a non Sikh the children will automatically be raised as Sikhs, however from my experience the type of guy who does marry a non-Sikh (excluding Sikh converts who've taken Amrit BTW) weren't too enamoured with the Sikh faith to begin with. So, if anything, those children will be secular Punjabi, not observant or even slightly knowledgeable Sikhs.

As a child I always use to hear my Nana say, "Dand baitka kadh!! You'll have a body like steel," and I was like, "Whatever," lol, but now I can attest to the magic in them. Sure, they're murder on the legs and other places, but keep doing them and eat clean, and along with a decent weightlifting regimen incorporating other exercises you'll be in great shape.

Disneyworld? Coconut. Nah, completely joking, have a great time.

I think it's the arrogance and the sense of assuredness these people cling to is what's so off-putting. Instead of introspection or self-realisation, they desire to change or mould everything and everyone to fit their blinkered worldview and lifestyles. That smacks of a huge lack of self awareness and humility. Unfortunately, certain ingrained features of our own cultural psyche pertaining to social status and wealth - to the exclusion of other essential traits and qualities - are also a huge obstacle in gaining genuine insight into how to function as a person who can resist the attempts to engineer a certain type of person. Even those who have turned to religion apparently have done so only on the surface. Deep down such people are driven by the same ambitions and motivations as the so-called uninitiated. It's more than just adhering to a set of rules about how to live a life, but also about genuinely changing one's mindset to the very core of what makes us tick.

I wholeheartedly agree. Unfortunately, the coming generations in places like the UK have fallen for this social engineering, mostly due to related issues such as not wanting to be identified as the "extreme, angry brown person" (we can think radical Muslims for that), and as such we'll keep getting otherwise decent Asians running in completely the opposite direction, losing all perspective and balance, to ensure such labels aren't attached to them in order to fit in to an increasingly intolerant and reactionary society.

I hope so. There's so much rotten with that radio station and supposed voice of Asians I don't know where to begin. They've been on the edge of being shut down a few times now, but they manage to pull through. I sound like a fascist, lol, but the AN agenda rubs me up the wrong way. It's insidious from top to bottom, teeming with the type of Asians I simply can't identify with, no matter their religion, culture, and gender.

I too commend the guys for making a stand against these masands and pimps who feel little guilt at selling their Guru to the highest bidder. However, these gentlemen should also consider abandoning those aspects of their own lifestyles that contradict Sikhi, such as the drinking (I'm assuming) and the cutting of hair, so that when they do stand up against beadbi they can't be criticised for their own shortcomings. It's all good and well standing up for one aspect of the Sikh faith, but knowingly choosing to ignore the others is slightly hypocritical on their part. But, at least there's some dardh for Sikhi on their part, which is more than to be said about the likes of Friction, Hundal, etc. If these two paragons of vice and uber-liberalism are the type of Sikhs they desire in places such as the UK, then we're in trouble. As mad as this may sound, if I had to choose, I'd take a dodgy Jatha that gets up to nonsense behind closed doors, but on the surface tries to connect people to Sikhi, over laissez-faire, anything-goes clowns with a supposed Sikh heritage who tweet their bakwaas to their harem of equally lost sheep. In an ideal world both aforementioned groups are as bad and undesirable as each other for their own particular reasons, but if I had to choose which of the lesser of two evils to thrive I know who I'd go for.

I think Big Tera has got us confused with Chinese Sangat.com.

The last few pages can be summed up thusly:
