<h2 class="date-header">Thursday, 12 February 2009</h2> <h3 class="post-title entry-title"> <a href="http://frontlinepunjabiyouth.blogspot.com/2009/02/can-amritdharis-be-gay.html">Can Amritdharis be Gay? </h3> What is the Sikh attitude to homosexuality? Sikh believe in following the laws of nature. God has created everything in opposites in his divine laws. We have day and night, man and women, water and fire, life and death etc. Sikh also believe reproduction is a necessary part of Gods will. Infact any sexual activity other then to reproduce is seen as a lustful deed and is unlegitamate. Even animals reproduce. Sikhs see homosexuality as a corrupt desire of the mind therefore it is not permitted within the Sikh faith. Even on a magnet the north and north of another magnet repel but the opposite south filed will stick to the north field. BEING BORN HOMOSEXUAL AND NATURALLY INCLINED? Whether homosexual inclinations, tendencies and behaviour are natural or not does not hold any weight when discussing Gurmat (the Guru's teachings). It is possible that urges, inclinations and desires may be natural to some, but in Gurmat a Sikh is not supposed to act upon or follow on all urges of sexual desire/lust (or any other vice). "(In the world) everyone acts according to the inclinations of the mind. (But the one who remembers and meditates on the Lord's name doesn't follow the inclinations of the mind, instead with the blessings of Naam becomes) the image of the Creator Lord and remains in a state free of fear" (Ang 1167 SGGSJ) Just because some sexual urge is 'natural', it does not mean that it is good to act upon it or follow it. Some people have incest urges and they too are natural to them. Should they follow those urges or subdue such urges through extensive reflection of Gurbani and Naam Abhiyaas (repetition of the Divine-Name). Some are pedophiles and have such horrific urges. Does it mean that the pedophiles are supposed to follow their urges just because they are 'natural' to them? Gurbani teaches us that urges, inclinations or desires can be subdued through reading, listening, contemplating and understanding the Guru's Shabad, keeping company with the Saadh Sangat (company of the Holy), sewa (selfless service) and Naam Simran (devotional remembrance and meditation of the Lord). "Sexual desire, anger, greed, pride and envy are destroyed in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy." (Ang 1223 SGGSJ) According to the Sikh Rehit Maryada, the Anand Karaj (Sikh marriage) can only be between a Sikh man and woman only. Sexual relationship can only be between the couple married under the Anand Karaj maryada. Denouncing the practice of same-sex marriages, Jathedar of Akal Takht, issued a directive with the seal of Sri Akaal Takht Sahib that prohibited any Gurdwara in the world to hold such ceremonies. Jathedar Giani Joginder Singh Vedanti described same sex marriages as an ‘anti-Gurmat’ trend that had no place in Sikhism. "He alone is a Sikh, a friend, a relative and a sibling, who walks in the Way of the Guru's Will. One who walks according to his own will, O Siblings of Destiny, suffers separation from the Lord, and shall be punished. Without the True Guru, peace is never obtained, O Siblings of Destiny; again and again, he regrets and repents.” (Ang 601 SGGSJ)

The Sikh Channel Reviewed By Frontline Punjabi Youth Sevadars The Sikh Channel is the first channel dedicated to the Sikh Faith. It is totally devoted to Dharmic seva. b]Positives[/b]: The visuals add to the effect of the Gurbani, helps concentration. The idea of having a channel dedicated 24/7 to Sikhi is amazing. Parchaar can be reached to all of the U.K from one place (that is a powerful tool if used) Negatives: · The writing going across the screen giving pump to the people who donated money (this is anti sikhi) as it is all to do with ego. You learn nothing from reading them. · The protest for bow Gurdwara should have been going across the screen, not a name of a person that gave £10 pound. Waheguru knows all; there is no need to mention who gave money, if someone is giving money to get their name across the screen. They will not reap fruits of their seva as their motive is pump and ego. · The channel could be more Panthic; it is good to see the dedication to Gurbani. But why not put up details of the bow protest (going across the screen) as that is also for the stakar of Gurbani. · Instead of the names for pump, Sikhi events and darbars across the country should be going across the screen. · Sikhi is about miri and piri and I have not seen the panthic side to the channel yet. Like its 25 years since June the information about the rally and documentaries about the Sikh genocide should be playing and all the darbars held in the remembrance of the victims should be going against the screen.

Interview with Killa from Sikh Unit by Simran Kaur (May 15th 2009– Barking Gurdwara) Simran Kaur: Killa there is two days left until the new album is launched, do you have any words about this? Killa: Big up Gadget boy and ambition and all da manz dat showed support on this project. The album is issued based on a lot of social issues that a lot of Punjabi youth go through. It includes a lot of pain and experience. It isn’t really aimed at religious people too much; it’s aimed at your average person. Other then that I will let the Album do the talking. It is called “Singhs Talking the Hardest” It was produced by an upcoming producer called Gadget boy. Gadget boy is normally a beat maker and has made hit beats from other big artists who sell tunes in HMV. So I was blessed to be working with him, he also told me this is his first production were he has had to produce and edit vocals too, so the album has been an experience for every one. Out 17th May 2009 on www.sikhunit.co.uk Simran Kaur: Your last Album was called Public demand, and I thought that was your last Album? The last album was actually meant to be the double CD called “No more MR Nice Guy”, but we kept on getting fan mail and requests to make more so we made one after called Public demand (hence the name) which was meant to be the last one yeah. But a lot of incidents in life and general peer pressure made us do this one, as I saw a need for a Sikh Unit Album juts concentrating on everyday living. Simran Kaur: Do you have any words for the youth? Killa: The album has all the words, but I do want to take this opportunity to discuss important issues regarding spirituality. First of all I must state that I am not the most spiritual person at all, but I will narrate from my own experience so that others may learn from my errors (that’s the least I can do man). The whole aim of Sikhi is to get your soul merging back with Akal purakh. Until we don’t follow Sikhi in a genuine manner our soul will keep on being reincarnated and transmigrate through different live forms. But if we follow The Gurus Hukam and get the Gurus kirpa we can get to Suchkhand (liberation from life and death). The Only two things that are guaranteed in life are birth and death, you are born and you die. Everyone you see will die, no one is immune from physical death. Fact of Life: No Matter how serious we may take life, to God it is a game, a form of entertainment like a puppet show. In Principle it’s like a kid playing a Gameboy, no matter what happens in the game, the kid knows it’s a game in the back of his head. This is how we should treat life, but it is hard to have this outlook. But it is this attitude and the love for Sikhi that has helped the Khalsa Fauj give sacrifices for humanity and justice. Kuljug: Gurbani tells us that we are living in Kuljug. Kuljug is a dark force of energy which has an aim of keeping people away from truth and Waheguru. Kuljug works in numerous ways; it has slaves like Maya and the 5 internal demons in our bodies (Lust, attachment, ego, anger, and greed). Kuljug is very powerful; Maya is the illusions such as family, friends and money. We dwell in these things so much sometimes we forget that all this is tempory. Maya is a deception created by Kuljug to distract us from focusing on waheguru and trust me it is very successful at that. Note: Kuljug was created and is controlled by Waheguru (It is all apart of his game). The five inner demons dwell in our mind and constantly attack our being and keep us trapped in their clutches through out life. They are very powerful; to get away from their clutches is an extremely hard battle. Basically kuljug twits the whole mentality of righteousness ion the world. For example what is seemed right is deemed as wrong. In schools instead of telling kid about how immodest dressing and meat is wrong. They serve meat as school dinners and the school uniform consists of mini skirts. This is how polluted and corrupt the world becomes in kuljug. Daughters have no shame, i.e. perform sexual acts on a porno video they don’t care that one day there own dad or brothers may watch it. This is how powerful kuljug is, and we are all victims to its attacks. How to defeat Kuljug and Get back to Waheguru. Gurbani is our main weapon to destroy all the dark energies with in us. Gurbani instructs the mind and keeps it focused on righteousness and truth. Gurbani releases an energy called Naam, which is a divine light and this purifies our minds and body. But how much Gurbani do we do? We waste alot of time watching films, talking crap etc; we should try and read Angs from SGGSJ daily. (Maharaj is on the net these days it isn’t a hard task) Nitnem – is the daily prayers that a Sikh is meant to read. These create a shield and defend us against kuljugs attacks. How many of us miss our nitnem? Amritvela – are the early morning hours in which a Sikh is meant to wake up and meditate on waheguru. The Guru does more Kirpa at amritvela, Gurbani gives many reasons for waking up at amritvela, I am not going to go into them, and all you need to know is that it is a hukam (command) from the Guru. (We always keep questioning things, sometimes we just need to learn to take orders and show some humility). How many people Miss Amritvela? Seva – means selfless service in which we use our hands or money to help others and expect nothing in return, this is essential. When is the last time you cleaned the toilets in the Gurdwara? The Khalsa Fauj – Amrit is the start of journey, some people think if you take Amrit that’s it you get to God. Taking Amrit is like enrolling in the School of the Guru, now you have to learn from Gurbani and complete the course of Gursikhi. The Khalsa army has always fought for righteousness and humanity. Sikhi is not about locking yourself up from the world and just doing Gurbani as a lot of people seem to think these days. Real Sikhs make things happen with Guru Ji’s Kirpa. This interview is not an attack on anyone, and nor am I talking down to anyone, I myself have a crap jeevan and am just evaluating my life discussing downfalls in my life and in turn raising some points for others to think about. Please do ardass for the Chardikala of the Panth!! WJKK WJKF

Introduction A lot of young people seem to be taking Amirt, but they do not seem to have the traits of an Amritdhari. In this essay I will look at why this is happening? After the Shaheedi of Guru Teg Bahadur Ji, Sri Guru Gobing Singh Ji Created the Khalsa Army. He describes in Dasam Granth that he was instructed by God to create this Army as Gods army. The Khalsa was to uphold righteousness and justice amongst humanity by any means. Guru Ji wanted so much determination from the soldiers of this army that even death would not put them off the path of truth. He therefore asked his Sikhs for 5 heads, five men came forward amongst thousands and answered the Gurus call. They became Singhs and are known as the 5 Beloved of the Guru. Once the 5 were baptized by Guru Ji, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji asked them to bless him with Amrit. Daya Singh said to Guru Ji we have given our heads to receive this nectar, what do you offer? Guru Ji said if the need be I will offer my whole family for the sacrifice for the sake the Khalsa! The gist is that to join the Khalsa one must be ready to face struggle, oppression and hardships. The soldier of the khalsa must be willing to sacrifice there all for the betterment of humanity. (These days people aren’t willing to even put ten pound petrol in a car and go to a protest against injustice, but claim “we have gave our head to the Guru”) When we take Amrit we make promises to Guru Ji and claim that we will live our life according to Gurmat (the teachings of Gurbani). But when the same Gurbani is being disrespected and then you just turn a blind eye! Have you really given your head? If you desire to play this game of love with Me, then step onto My Path with your head in hand. When you place your feet on this Path, give Me your head, and do not pay any attention to public opinion. Ang 1410 SGGSJ Role of the Khalsa A soldier of the Khalsa pays homage and alliance to Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, the Sikh of the Guru never bows their head before any mortal being. The Sikh meditates on Waheguru (the Immortal Supreme Soul). The Sikh has a daily routine of Nitnem and Simran. The Sikh sees Gods light in all and does not believe in rituals, superstitions and the worship of none other then Akal Purakh. These days Sikhs Indulge in many rituals such as rakhri and lorhi (which are festivals that discriminate against the female sex) Loads of Sikhs are superstitious for example tie black threads on their arm for protection. Don’t wash their hair on Thursdays because it is supposed to be bad luck. A Sikh will parrot read Gurbani (they read bani paying no attention or not absorbing the message of the Guru). Ikonkaar means one light of all, but Sikhs are still racist. For Example they will Look <Edited> off when a black man comes to the Gurdwara to eat Guru Ka Langar. Loads of Sikhs live hypocritical lives which go against Gurbani because they are ignorant or have not took time out to learn the message of the Guru.(They just Keep Parrot reading all their lives) People that are meant to be amritdhari encourage and start anti gurmat activities in Gurdwara sahibs. (they also openly Slander Guru Ji and a lot of the real Sikh way of life) So called Sikhs abuse and Disrespect Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, By taking Maharaj to Pubs or opening up anti Gurmat Halls with Guru ji’s Money) <!--[if !supportLists]--> This happens because people take Amrit just for the outside look, i.e. to join a committee, or to look good in the community. Sometimes kids are pressured into it by the family or peer pressure. One must only take Amrit if they understand the Gurus message and are willing to live that lifestyle. The person must have a thirst in their heart for Amrit. In this way we will avoid having Amritdharis that live hypocritical lives (because the person will be taking Amrit for more genuine reasons). The role of the Khalsa is to be a saint soldier, not one of them. They both go hand in hand. If you are just a saint you will not make a stand against an injustice for example if your neighbor is getting raped and you just sit there and pray! Are you really full of compassion, do you really love God then? If you are just a soldier and do not worship the lord you will be full of anger and commit injustices yourself and justify them beucase your consciousness is dead. Sri Guru Teg Bahadur Ji did bhakti for 26 years in solitary confinement because he knew one day the big test will come for him. He gave his life for the preservation of another religion; he made that stand against injustice. The Youth these days say that it’s all about bhakti, and they allow going to the protests or even writing a letter to mention their concern over injustice! I wonder what sort of bahkti they are really doing? (Are they just parrot reading) If you aren’t going to make a Stand, why join Akaal Purakh Ki Fauj? However this isn’t always the Amritdharis fault as a lot of jathas do not tell the person the role of the Khalsa and what is expected of them when they take Amrit. The Khalsa is god’s voluntary army and has never tolerated injustices. When all means fail in addressing a wrong it is just and pious to raise the sword. – Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji The State of cowardice Guru Gobind Singh Ji clearly stated that there is no room for cowards within the Khalsa fauj, during the first ever Amrit ceremony he said to his Sikhs “Do not even come before me without Kesh and Weapons” However these days Sikhs have no love for shaster, if the see a Singh with a pistol Standing at a Gurdwara to protect the sangat they will get annoyed. But when they go heathrow and see the British police with their big guns they dont feel annoyed! Guru Ji gave us the Amrit of the Khanda (double edged sword) and showed its strength when a bird (sparrow) took a zip of it and fought a hawk and eagle off. Guru Gobind Singh Ji says that his Khalsa was created to protect the saints and root out tyranny from the world. “I will make one Singh stand against 125,000 oppressors, only then will I be fit to be called Guru Gobind Singh” We all use the name Singh (lion) but if a sleeping lion is kicked it will get up and bite, but as Singhs we get bullied and mugged everyday! Are we really lions? Even the SP back in the days who used to mainly drink (pub Boys) held it strong (although there was some real Amritdharis in the SP). Yet we Drink the Immortal nectar of the double edged sword and get treated like sheep! A lot of the Singhs are unwilling to do physical training and are fat and out of shape, but yet they joined an army! Even worldly armies have a basic fitness test to see whether they will accept the person as a soldier! We have brought shame and disgrace to our forefathers who held the honour of the Khalsa so high. We have made the Khalsa into a mere joke. Loads of Singhs are timid and feel that it is alright for Sikhs to be gay! (This is how low and impure the mentality of the so called Sikhs has gone). If a real Singhs speaks up and says the truth, ever one says he is a trouble maker and extremist to defame him. Because they know to face the truth and overcome our plight we will have to go through hardship “just call him an extremist and hope he gets locked up” Sant Jarnail Singh ji brought back the real Spirit of the Khalsa, but this was short lived due to the oppression if the Indian Government. Panthicness Even in our history we have had misals that operated in different regions and ways! The aim of these misals was to safeguard Sikh principals and defend the Panth. Even dough they may have had different view they had so much unity for common Panthic causes. These days the jathas want to kill each other and all our youth do is slander and defame each other for the wrong reasons. The sense of self preservation and protection of Sikh identity and principals is at an all time low. A lot of ego and disunity is spread over the Panth therefore making it easier for the enemies of the Panth to cause chaos amongst us. Sikh women in the khalsa have exactly the same role as the men; they have fought back in the days and supported Panthic causes. But most women these days are too busy doing their nails (even if they are Amritdhari) and looking for a date. The modesty and self respect of the traditional women is rarely present amongst this generation. The dress sense is so bad (immodest) and we all seen the flirting at kirtan programmes. Real Singhs got cut up into little bits, but held it strong. These days Singhs get a paper cut and complain to god, Oh My God what have I done wrong? Let us all pray to Guru Ji to Bless us all with a jeevan which is worthy of Gurus Amrit and a place in the Khalsa Fauj! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_N12sxdwLe-o/STaC...avtar+singh.jpg By: Harpreet kaur 17 London
