  1. From the "Learning Zone" Discussion Group: Rumours and Propaganda about Prof. Darshan Singh Posted by: "sarabjeet_great" sarabjeet_great@yahoo.com sarabjeet_great Fri Jan 18, 2008 12:40 am (PST) Yesterday, I, along with some other journalists, had an informal conversation by Prof. Darshan Singh, regarding misinformation being spread about him. He revealed very interesting information about some recent incidents : 1) The first rumour about Prof. Darshan Singh is that he was denied the permission to do kirtan at Hazoor Sahib. About this rumour, the renowned ragi informed that on the morning of his first day kirtan at Hazur Sahib he, during the explanatin of gurbani, told the sangat that every speaker is claiming that it was at Hazur Sahib where Guru Gobind Singh conferred guruship on guru granth sahib (at that time called 'adi granth'). He raised the question that whether the tenth Guru simultaneously conferred guruship on any other scripture or person? If not, then how comes that another scripture (read dasam granth) is being given the status of guru (at hazoor sahib). The ragi said in his kirtan that he would expalin about the concepts of 'guruship' and the need to have 'guru' in the evening. The management of hazur sahib became anxious that the prof. could create a public opion against their highly objectionable policy of creating a guru (dasam granth), parallel to guru granth sahib. They held a discussion with DSGMC president S. Paramjit Singh Sarna. Thereby, Mr. Sarna requested just to do kirtan in the evening and no 'explanation' should be done. The prof. denied to kirtan on conditional basis and didn't perform kirtan at all in the evening. The next day, he left back for New Delhi. 2) The seond rumour about the prof. is that he was denied permission to do kirtan at a gurdwara Guru Tegh Bahadur in Jalandhar. About this rumour, Prof. Darshan Singh informed that the president of the above mentioned gurdwara had been requesting him for a long time to perform kirtan at this gurdwara. Accordingly, prof. Darshan Singh fixed the date of 13th Jan 08 to do kirtan at the above mentioned gurdwara. However, owing to the previous rumour, the president of the Gurdwara (Mr. Gaba) got apprehensive and asked some other member to make a phone call to the professor. The person requested the ragi not to take up the issue of 'Dasam Granth' during his kirtan at the Gurdwara. According to prof. Darshan Singh, he immediately told the committee member that he won't be coming to the gurdwara (to do kirtan under specific terms & conditions). 3) The third rumour is that Prof. Darshan Singh was even denied the permission to do kirtan at Darbar Sahib, Amritsar. About this rumour, Prof. Darshan Singh revealed that he never had himself requested the SGPC for the permission about kirtan at Darbar Sahib. Instead, someone from Sikh sangat wished that and made a phone call to Jathedar Avtar Singh Makkar, making a request for the purpose. Makkar, on his part, said something highly uncivilised as his reply. The professor says that he does have the recording of this phone call but will release it in future, at an appropriate timing. 4) Another rumour (or well-planned propaganda) about Prof. Darshan Singh is that he is a hypocrite who earlier used to perform kirtan from the writings of Dasam Granth but now is preaching against them. About this blame, Prof. Darshan Singh informed that in his opinion, those writings of Dasam Granth can be read, sung and discussed, whose message is in line with the philosophy of Guru Granth Sahib. He, however added, that even these writings should be treated as literature and not as 'guru'. He said that if a person, organisation or gurudwara is indulged in giving guru like status to any other scripture than Guru Granth Sahib, then that person or institution is directly and intentionally violating the order of Guru Gobind Singh (about giving guruship only to 'Adi Granth'). He said that he is ready to discuss the topic of Dasam Granth with any 'Sikh' because this an issue of the Sikh community. He said that those challenging him for a public dialogue should just prove that they are Sikhs by acknowleding publicly that they do not treat any other scripture like guru, other than Guru Granth Sahib. He requested that whether he himself is a good Sikh or bad Sikh, but he requests all the Sikhs that they should read and understand the messages of Guru Granth Sahib during the current 'Shatabdi'.

  14. Gur Fateh all. Just wondered if anyone recorded this - if so could you please upload it to the server. Many Thanks. Gur Rakha.
  15. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Need some advice. Am looking for the best equipment to use to record kirtan. Have got a tie mic (Yoga EM-8) and have been using a minidisc recorder for ages which has been fine, but now I want to record direct to a small mp3 player using the microphone. Any ideas on the best mp3 player anyone ? Thanks. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
  16. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Bhenji - I think you're referring to the Changeri Maa CD by Prof Darshan Singh Ji. I'm pretty certain it's on www.keertan.org (can't send you the link because it's blocked at work). But go to the Multimedia 2 tab, and it should be under there, under "Prof Darshan Singh" - any probs let me know + I'll send u the mp3. Also check out ggsacademy.com for more of Prof Darshan Singh Ji's viyakyha. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Jasjit.
  17. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh According to my sources, Singh Sahib Ji's programmes in the UK are as follows: Sat 3/3 West Ealing Gurdwara 19:30 - 20:30 Sun 4/3 Ramgharia Slough 12:30 - 13:30 Sun 4/3 Shepherd's Bush Gurdwara 19:30 - 20:30 Mon 5/3 Gurdwara Kabul Sangat Southall - 19:30 - 20:30 Tues 6/3 Gurdwara Singh Sabha Hitchin - 19:30 - 20:30 Wed 7/3 Shepherd's Bush Gurdwara 19:30 - 20:30 Could anyone who is recording please let me know and upload the files to the net somewhere, as I'm currently trying to get hold of as much of Singh Sahib Ji's viyakhya as poss. I'm going to try to attend all programs up to Tuesday but will then need to head back to Leeds. Don't miss this opportunity to listen to the top Gurbani kathavachak in my opinion. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Jasjit.
  18. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Could you please also post further details about the programme in Cov on Sat 29th. Thanks. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
  19. Das Nimana Ji - WJKK WJKF. Don't suppose you've got a recording ?? Or does anyone else for that matter ?? Prof Darshan Singh Ji, IMHO is one of the few people who has the interest of the Khalsa Panth at heart. WJKK WJKF
  20. GurFateh Veerji Sahib Singh Veerji , please put the second file up when you get time. I really want to hear what Prof Ji says the answers are. Thanks for the great sewa. GurFateh.
  21. Fateh & Thanks a lot - I've sent a personal message to you with my details. Please get in touch.
  22. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh So, when d'you reckon we'll see a Sikh playing in the World Cup finals ?? Seeing as there are no Sikhs and very few "Asians" playing in any of the top European leagues, it's probably at least 20 years off. Unless anyone knows of any potential Sikh stars out there ........... Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
  23. Fateh As requested elsewhere, do you have any of Prof Darshan Singh Ji's keertan?? Thanks. Fateh Fateh As requested elsewhere, do you have any of Prof Darshan Singh Ji's keertan?? Thanks. Fateh
  24. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh FYI - Singh Sahib Ji is in Philly on June 10th I think. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
  25. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Totally agree Narinder Singh Veerji - he's certainly inspired me !! You didn't happen to record it did you, or know anyone else who did? BTW Singh Sahib Ji is going to be in Philadelphia soon - not sure of the dates, think it's June 16th, so if anyone's from Philly, could you please try & record it & pass it on. Thanks. BTW, a singh veerji - thanks a lot, but I already have the full Asa Di War viyakya set. It's excellent + recommended to all. I think it's available through GGSACADEMY.Com for purchase.
