  1. Very wise words here, bewakoofs like Bush, Blair and Camoron could have done with following these maxims! Note that the text appears to open the door to disobeying orders from above if they are against the interests of the state. We've been talking about soldiers here a lot recently, and some people have excused them from participating in dubious wars saying they are just following orders. I strongly disagree with this notion, if anyone should be vocal and scrutinising about orders for war, it needs to be these people as they are ones who will suffer the most from death and loss of reputation if they blindly walk, lemming-like into a war instigated by immoral and stupid leaders.

  2. They're completely different songs. If you think the video may have similarities, then those kind of videos were common in that era for many songs.

  6. I would be interested. In my ancestral pind, and other pinds I am connected to by family, I want to start a system where langar is available regularly for poor people such as dalits. I would say in a similar manner to how langar works in many London gurdwaras, where langar is most of the day. This would bring these folk also closer to the gurdwara, or rather back to the gurdwara. I would be willing to donate some of my inherited land for them to do this as well! But I also want to use my land for other benefits of people as well.

  7. I returned back Monday from Punjab. I enquired myself about Amritpal Singh Ji. He's in Anandpur Sahib but am sure other sources will know better / he may have moved by then. He married a UK girl so will be interesting for us... IF he decides to reside in UK.

  8. This is a fascinating video that explore the link between low levels of vitamin D and an increased risk of mortality with covid. It's quite scientific but well worth watching:

  10. Dhai Phat - Jangnamah, Qazi Nur Mohammed Panth Parkash, Shaheed Bhai Rattan Singh Ji Bhangu ਸਾਖੀ ਘੱਲੂਘਾਰੇ ਪੜੋਲ ਕਠੂਹੇ ਕੀ Episode About the Massacre at Parol and Kathuha (Chhota Ghallughara) ਦੋਹਰਾ Dohra ਦੇਖ ਸੁ ਲਸ਼ਕਰ ਅਤਿ ਘਣਾ ਸਭ ਖਾਲਸੇ ਲਾਯੋ ਦਿਵਾਨ । ਇਨ ਸੋ ਸਨਮੁਖ ਕਿਮ ਲਰੈਂ ਇਹ ਚਲ ਅਯੋ ਜਹਾਨ । ੬੯ । Reckoning the strength of Mughal forces to be large in number, The Khalsa Singhs did assemble in a religious congregation. How should the Khalsa fight with the Mughal troops, As they had launched an invasion in their largest strength. (39) ਜੇਉ ਸੂਰ ਸਿਰ ਬਾਹਰੇ ਤੇਊ ਕਹੈਂ ਲੜੋ ਆਜ । ਜੋਊ ਸਿਆਨੇ ਸੋ ਕਹੈਂ ਲੜੋ ਸੁ ਮੁੜ ਮੁੜ ਭਾਜ । ੪੦ । Those being hot-headed and brave among the Singhs, Did they vote for an instant spat with the Mughals. Those being seasoned and battle-hardened veterans, Did they advise to adopt a hit and run strategy. (40) ਚੌਪਈ Chaupai ਸਯਾਨਨ ਨੇ ਯੋ ਬਾਤ ਸੁਨਾਈ । ਲੜਾਈ ਕੇ ਫੱਟ ਕਹੈ ਸੁ ਢਾਈ । ਮਿਲਨ ਭਜਨ ਇਹ ਸਾਰ ਦੋਇ । ਲੜ ਮਰ ਮੁੱਕਣ ਆਧਾ ਸੋਇ । ੪੧ । Rightly had the elders narrated a war strategy, That hit and run indeed was the best kind of battle. Confrontation and desertion being equally valid strategies, Fight or perish were indeed half as good as hit and run. (41) ਹਮੇਂ ਗੁਰੂ ਨੇ ਭਜਣ ਬਤਾਯਾ । ਭਜ ਭਜ ਲੜਨੋਂ ਬਡ ਯਹ ਦਾਯਾ । ਭਜ ਭਜ ਲੜਿਓ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਆਪ । ਭਜ ਭਜ ਲੜਨੋ ਨਹਿਂ ਕਛੁ ਪਾਪ । ੪੨ । Advantageous desertion being approved by the Guru as a good strategy, Hit and run strategy indeed was the best policy Guru himself having deserted the field while battling, Was there indeed nothing sinful about hitting and running. (42) ਕਈ ਬਾਰ ਭਜ ਗਯੋ ਭਗਵਾਨ । ਮੱਧ ਸਮੁੰਦਰ ਕੀਨੋ ਥਾਨ । ਪਾਂਡਵ ਭੀ ਥੇ ਭਜ ਕੇ ਬਚੇ । ਮੰਦਰ ਥੇ ਜਹ ਲੱਖੀ ਰਚੇ । ੪੩ । Many a time did Lord Krishna desert the field of battle, In the mid-ocean he had to sit for protection. Pandavas: to had to run away to save their lives, Seeking protection inside the Lakhi temple under-construction. (43) ਦੋਹਰਾ Dohra ਜੋਉ ਸਯਾਨਨ ਨੇ ਕਹੀ ਮਨੀ ਸੂਰਨ ਸੋ ਗੱਲ । ਲਰਤ ਭਜਤ ਆਗੇ ਤੁਰੇ ਲਯੋ ਆਸਰੋ ਝੱਲ । ੪੪ । As advised by elderly veterans among the Khalsa Panth, The brave Singh warriors did obey their sane advice. Hitting and running did they proceed further, Taking shelter among the wilds (as and when required). (44) https://www.akaalsahaiji.com/post/dhai-phat

  20. Arabs are a race of people. If you're gonna assocaiate Iranians (Persians) with the totally different race of Arabs then you might as well post pics of Gurdwaras in Singapore and Hong Kong too. As for the Gurdwaras in Iran....the sangat....specifically the larger sangat in the wild west city of Zahedan, are all ethnic Punjabi khatri / arora traders. Not Persian. In the 'muslim world' as a whole, I would guess that the tribal mountains of north west frontier province is the one place where - judging from the photographs of sikhs I've seen - whole communities of ethnic pathans are sikhs. (although the majority of sikhs there are ethnic punjabi aroras)
