Sikhistan

I would not take kirpan on plane regardless of their policy.. if they find out that I am wearing one even if it meets the requirement, I probably still have to go thru stringent patting/searching or even taking daastar off by mostly high school graduated TSA employees..

A more credible new source is needed. We can't trust any of our part-time biased news service such as above and/or others when it comes to confirm such important news.

Good luck brother. If any help is needed then let us know.

It does exist, but it cannot harm a gursikh. Bani is the most powerful kavach against these things.

Agree !!I

Pendu management and pendu decisions.

There should be Gurdwara management entrance test of gurmat knowledge.

Singhoo Post pictures PLEASE !!! Nobody will remember names..

Make sure pictures are public [on stage] not private ones !

Amrik of chandigarh is well known missionary in punjab's capital for many many years.

Add "One Panth" to the list (onepanth.com)

Pure missionary. This is their tactics to attack without showing hostility and how cleverly justifying his talks with few quotations of gurbani.

please get the facts right before commenting. It is not gold paint but a thin layer of gold plate. Btw, there is already request released by takhat not to call pavitaar asthan 'golden temple'.

This is all missionary krap about whining about use of milk @ darbar sahib. Forum members who are genuinely questioning about use of milk, please don't get into their trap of divide & rule.

Plus, it is not our theeka to feed poor but governments responsibility. Give us our raj back {Khalistan} and we will take care of poor ones properly. Our gurus system work perfectly - laangar. What more we can do? [before giving list, think whether its govt duty or not].

First to take pictures of guru sahibs down and now put end to akhand paath. Brother, try to learn the system rather than revolting everything that does not suits you. Do not look for point to justify anything. Today, you say that akhand paat is ritual because ppl are not reading or listening to it. Tomorrow someone comes up and say that youth are drinking and do other bad stuff while paag on and start suggesting all to stop wearing one. It never ends !!

Please take no offense from my post as I am against modernist who wanted to change old calendar. However, it still puzzles me that nit only missionaries cult are not following calendar but also some panthic jathay are not following em. Akal takht is higher than everyone. Can you please post the differences between akal takht calendar and above posted calendar? Are their any date difference in major events such as gurpurabs ?

So in the end nobody is following one calendar? That is one major example how broken we are in small groups. Just read another topic where nanaksar also released their own calendar.

I believe that all should celebrate according to Akal takht sahib approved dates.

Nemesis, So it is okay to sit back and let people like dhunda use the panthic stage to spew more garbage against gurbani ? What are we now? ultra liberal freak?

How your suggestion is going to stop him doing beadbi of gurbani?

Found this online: http://postimage.org/image/ykocd9mrf/

Stockton management is trying to get letter from jatehdar of Akal takht and they are going to show that to public that jatehdar has no objection on dhunda. They claim that they got verbal ok from them and trying to get in writing. It is also important to note that head granthi of Stockton gurdwara is hard core missionary.

if they respect Akal takht sahib then why don't they give up purewal calendar? Instead they honor him on stage and do not follow hukam from Akal takht. Being backward area of California, it is fact that there will be huge trouble if this non-us citizen dhunda enters Stockton county.

Stockton management, if you are reading this then please shed your ego and try to keep shanti in your gurughar.

lol.. damn ! He is just like that skinny baba ramdev who also used women to protect himself... pakhandi

Below updates i get from my relatives.

1. Fremont Gurdwara - Half maintained by rogue "America Sikh Youth" group and half management is of Simranjeet Singh Mann group. Sikh youth side called dhunda but other side is saying they will beat the crap out of him if he ever get on stage. Supreme council didn't made any decision but rumors are that dhunda won't be able to visit California Bay Area. San Jose Gurdwara management clearly declined and standing to protest against dhunda.
   
2. Tracy Gurdwara - Two gurdwaras in tracy; one is of baba dharam singh taksal and newly opened gurdwara few miles away from taksal maintained gurdwara. Un-official rumour is that they cancelled his program because of heavy number of phone calls and pressure from sangat.
   
3. Stockton Gurdwara - Mangement is getting mild pressure from few selected people but they are not backing down on giving stage to dhunda. Their answer is that sangat wants dhunda to be in gurdwara. They are mates of sikh youth america (also run fremont gurdwara).

Keep this topic only for updates. Post your opinion on other topics.

So basically what is going on is that because of few pictures found online, we trying to judge the whole issue. That is exactly like judging the whole Sardar community just because someone saw turban guy in drunken state or eating Barkha on streets (common sight in India). Bit childish to per-judge like that.

What individuals do or does is action of their own (thread topic issue, they didn't do major wrong). If someone has issues with guru di bani, Sri dasam Granth then be a man and stand your ground rather than hiding and start issuing total confused press releases. Ok, let's say they have such issues in uk pertaining to Prakash of gurus bani but what about America? There are no such issues to this date but then why no such releases since infamous akj.org is based in America too. Such people not only fool them-self but try to take giddar cover by even cropping other issues irrelevant to core issues, they do this only wishing to hide.

Aka.org does not represent the whole jatha. They are a splinter group who started the rift within once a united jatha. Imagine tomorrow this forum website started saying that they are the official voice of Sikhs around globe. What Bhai randhir Singh jee started and what we have today... Jameen asmaan da farak. same goes with taksal.

Swallow our own ego and let's not carry away but simply ask and answer (y)ourself a question. Do you believe in DG as whole? Answer is either yes or no, there is no answer starts with "yes, but...."

Perfect reply by ms514.

Not confirmed but I saw this message on FB:

Dhunde da program Tracy guru ghar vich nahi hovega utho di committee ne us nu rok dita hai

Lack of faith, discipline and rehat.

Lack of moral compass { integrity, forgiveness, compassion and responsibility }

I am following the jatha trend for past few years just before ragi darshan episode. Few prominent akj keertanias are responsible for creating a rift in akhand kirtani jatha. Occasional keertania likes of Harpreet Singh who got a good fan base ruined the jatha ekta as he controls and run akj.org, who also monopolized the live streaming of samagams.. He falsely represent and shows himself as the spokesman of jatha (just like the posted pr in above replies). Youth from east coast, west coast and uk are being misled by such people. People will sooner or later come back to senses. I figured it out by being outsider. Taksal as usual stays dormant since 80's on being proactive on such issues.

Singhfauja's reply gives good picture of sad situation within this group. Don't kid yourself asking for proof as many people are aware of standpoint of each other. It is dirty politics where people hides the reality and put the fake face of unity. Give it a time, reality will come forward.

Great if namdhari clan decides to join mainstream Sikh Kaum. Sadly not going to happen.

Few jathas left that are attached to sikhi core Sikh values; taksal, akj and few nihungs - hazoor sahib.

I wonder what will happen to baba Jagjit singh's luxury fleet, including maybach.

Captain family gone wild!!!
