  1. Amritsar, Jul 17 (PTI) Akal Takht Jathedar Gurbachan Singh today directed DSGMC president Parmjit Singh Sarna not to hold any public gathering on July 19 at Ludhiana on the issue of disrespect shown to Guru Granth Sahib in Italy. The Jathedar said it was brought to his notice that the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee was going to organise a public gathering at Ludhiana on the issue of "disrespect" shown to the holy Sikh scripture. Such sensitive issues could create unrest among Sikhs and should not be discussed publicly, he told mediapersons here. The issue would be discussed thoroughly at Akal Takht, the hightest temporal seat of the Sikhs, on July 22, the head priest said. Recently, Italy-based Harvans Singh Dadhowal requested the SGPC to send 250 copies of Guru Granth Sahib to him. The SGPC sent 400 copies and two of its officials also went to Italy. On reaching Italy, they handed over 250 copies of Guru Granth Sahib to Dadhowal and retained 150 with themselves. Dadhowal, in his complaint to Akal Takht, alleged the SGPC officials without adhering to Sikh tenets were carrying 150 copies of Guru Granth Sahib in Italy. He said this amounted to showing disrespect to the Guru Granth Sahib and the officials must be taken to task as per Sikh rituals.

  2. if you go into the army with the mindset that you are serving humanity as a saint soldier then thats what you will be doing

    the army needs saint soldiers because i know from wikileaks from some of the crimes soldiers have commited in the battlefields, hence why i believe western armies need saint soldiers to change the military

    cultures

    many sikhs went into world war 2 to fight hitler, but at the same time many went into world war 2 for the same reason they went into world war 1

    many sikhs went into world war 2 cause as a saint soldier duty but many went in as soldiers for england and not as saint soldiers but many sikths went into world war 1 not cause it was a job for a saint solder but went in as soldiers of the britishh army, as we talk about bombing libya and no one standing up for syria mny saint soldiers went into world war 2 fighting for countrys that ruled their country and many other country

    saint soldier fights for humanity

    a soldier fights for the politicans

    if an army is led by saint soldiers, in today's age the govt would be greatly influenced by their demands

    NOW LETS LOOK AT THE 80;S AND 90;S THE INDIAN GOVT KILLED THOUSANDS OF INOCENT SIKHS AND TODAY LIVE LIKE KINGS REASON THEY CAN LIVE LIKE KINGS IS CAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH SAINT SOLDIERS THEN AND DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SAINT SOLDIERS TODAY, AT THE RATE WERE GOING AT IN 30 YEARS YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COUNT ON YOUR HANDS THE AMOUNT OF SAINT SOLDIERS WE HAVE, WE NEED TO TURN THIS AROUND AND START PRODUCING SAINT SOLDIERS AND THE ARMY IS THE BEST PLACE TO LEARN TO BECOME SAINT SOLDIERS

    LET ME ASK YOU GUYS A QUESTION WHO ARE AGAINST ANYONE JOINING THE ARMY, WERE IS THE BEST PLACE FOR A SIKH TO TRAIN IN TO BE A SOLDIER CAUSE I WANT TO BE A SOLDIER

    AS WELL LOOK AT THE HUMILATION SIKHS HAVE GONE THROUGH AND STILL GO THROUGH TODAY, THE GOVT LAUNCHED OPERATIONBLUESTAR AND KILLED THOUSANDS OF INOCENT SIKHS, THEN ORDERED THE PUNJAB POLICE TO KILL THOUSANDS OF INOCENT YOUTH, AND CONTINUE TO LIVE LIKE KINGS TODAY, IN 1992 WE HAD BIN DEFEATED FOR TWO REASONS, MANY SIKHS ARE SLAVES TO THE CORRUPT POLITICANS LIKE THE SOLDIERS IN THE INDIAN ARMY AND PUNJAB POLICE, IF THEY WEREN'T SLAVES THEY WOULD OF REBELLED AGAINST THE INDIAN GOVT

    NUMBER TWO WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH SAINT SOLDIERS, MOST PEOPLE CHOSE TO STAY IN CANADA AMERICA AND ENGLAND HOPING THE PEOPLE IN PUNJAB WOULD STAND UP AND CREATE THE REVOLUTION NEEDED, REASON THESE PPL CHOSE TO STAY IN THE WEST IS CAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO BE A SOLDIER, EVEN IN PUNJAB FOR THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO FOUGHT FOR SIKHS THEY WERE SO BADLY OUT NUMBERED

    JOINING THE US ARMY I WON'T BE A SLAVE, A SAINT SOLDIER ISN'T A PRODUCT OF HIS ENVIRONMENT HIS ENVIRONMENT IS A PRODUCT OF A SAINT SOLDIER, THATS MY

  6. My brother is looking for a Singhni.

    He is amritdhari, 28, 5ft 11, very well educated and in a good career.

    His parents and family are also amritdhari. They are from West Midlands area. However his family don't know many families with an eligible daughter of a similar age who is Singhni. He respects all groups and keeps his focus on pyaar & Shardhaa for Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj.

    Ideally he would prefer someone with less height difference & also be career-minded but he isnt fussy and his only sticking point is she must be a Singhni.

    We are all grown-ups. If there is someone who is genuinely interested and would be ok if both families knew from the outset then please get in touch via pm.

    try advertising in the ajit paper which is available in punjab families there will see add and if in there family they have a daughter they will contact you its worked for a lot of Gursikh families call manpreet singh 0789979863 he does the personal adds for uk

    Short Description: Kirtan By Singhs

    11 Sikhs were gunned down at Paonta Sahib (Himachal Pradesh) by the Mahant's henchmen.

    The sangat of Poanta Sahib had requested Jathedar Baba Harbhajan Singh Ji (the one before Baba Nihal Singh Jee)to visit the Gurdwara. They complained that the residing masand was abusing the Gurdwara premises through drinking, raping women that came alone, and making prostitutes dance inside. After several such requests Babaji decided to visit Poanta Sahib accompanied by 13 GurSikhs. They left, from Gurdwara Haria Welan Hoshiarpur, riding horses and horse drawn carts. When they arrived near Gurdwara Poanta Sahib, two GurSikhs carried Babaji's message for the masand requesting initiation of a Akhand Path at the Gurdwara. The masand did not give a definitive answer, instead assured to respond before the next morning. Meanwhile the masand confided with the local police chief, one of his corrupt friends who endorsed and permitted his evil acts.

    Babaji started the Akhand Path next morning which proceeded uninterrupted for 2 days. On the 2nd day, the masand came with the police. They arrested Babaji who was outside at that time and fired at the GurSikhs inside, who were conducting the Akhand Path. The GurSikhs had no guns. For they had not come with the intent to fight, but rather to hear the sangat's concerns. As a result they were brutally massacred. Eleven died and two survived. As each Pathi was shot while reciting the Guru Granth Sahib, another simply pushed his body and continued the uninterrupted recitation of Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Nihal Singh, 21 at the time, continued with his choar sewa (even when he had been shot 3 times) until the last GurSikh was shot. As the Akhand Path was interrupted, Nihal Singh finally fell. The only survivor was the youngest GurSikh, a 11 year old, who was found hiding behind a nagara (drums). Besides him all others were presumed dead. It wasn't until the bodies were being loaded up in a cart that a small child saw Nihal Singh breath and informed the local sikhs. The local sikhs who had gathered by now, screamed to get him some medical attention. Fortunately they succeeded in their efforts. He received medical attention and survived with Vaaheguru's grace. He was subsequently honored by many gurdwaras as Jinda-Shaheed Jathedar. The masand was finally removed. Akhand paths are held each year in the commemoration of this event.

    15 MAY

    1629

    Mukhlis Khan reaches Amritsar with his forces to fight Guru Har Gobind Sahib.

    1765

    Conquest of Lahore by the Khalsa Forces. Ahmad Shah reached Lahore via Eminabad during his 7th invasion. Sikhs attacked his outposts conquered Lahore and assembled at Amritsar.

    1850

    Bhai Maharaj Singh was deported to Singapore aboard ship named "Mohammed Shah" guarded by soldiers of the 70th regiment.

    ==> Bhai MAHARAJ SINGH: Born in village Rabbon, near Malud, Ludhiana Dist. Parents named him Nihal Singh. As a young lad, he went to stay at Bhai Bir Singh's Dera at Naurangabad. Did sewa for many years, took Amrit at the hands of Bhai Bir Singh, was given the name Bhagwan Singh, and eventually became his chela. The Dera was practically a military camp with 1200 musketmen and 3000 horsemen. It had always been a sanctuary for political refugees. It became the centre of the Sikh revolt against Dogra dominance over the Punjab.

    Hira Singh Dogra, the chief minister of the Punjab, attacked the Dera in 1844 with 20000 troops and 50 cannon. Several hundred Sikhs, including General Attar Singh Sandhanwalla, Prince Kashmira Singh and Bhai Bir Singh were killed. Bhagwan Singh became the head of the Dera.

    The British, who had been waiting for the right moment to intervene and establish their authority, made their move in 1847. They deported Rani Jinda. The Sikh chiefs revolted, including Bhagwan Singh. He was welcomed by Sikhs saying "Ah Wo Maharaj", because of his sanctity, thus, soon he came to be referred to as Bhai Maharaj Singh.

    During the second Anglo-Sikh war that followed, at the battles of Ram Nagar, Chillianwall and Gujrat, he was very active providing personal inspiration and organizing supplies for the Sikh Army. Soon after the defeat at Gujrat, all the other Sikh chiefs had been captured or had surrendered.

    By the way, Bhai Maharaj Singh was one of the first people of Punjab to launch a freedom movement in Punjab after the British took over Punjab. He said in 1849:

    "There will be another National War, let all the true Sikhs rise on the day fixed."

    "Bhai Mahararaj Singh, a Sikh priest of reputed sanctity, and of great influence, the first man who raised the standards of rebellion beyound the confines of Multan in 1848, and the only leader of note who did not lay down his arms to Sir Walter Gilberts at Rawalpindi."

    - Henry Lawrence, Resident of Lahore

    Bhai Maharaj Singh's other name was Bhai Nihal Singh. His belonged to a line of Sikh revolutionaries who wanted to return to the creed of the Gurus. The pinions of this movement were Baba Bhag Singh of Pothohar, his worthy and more popular disciple Bhai Bir Singh of Naurangabad in Amritsar and the latter's successor Bhai Maharaj Singh.

    Bhai Maharaj Singh plan of action against the vastly superior British was framed in the jungles of the Chumb Valley. 1. To rescue Maharajah Dalip Singh from Lahore Fort. 2. To organize a United Front of all anti-British forces. 3. Organized disruption by subversion and suprise attacks on British treasuries and cantonments.

    He displayed superb military generalship and knowledge of tactical warfare. What sustained him was his rich spiritual heritage.

    The British reacted by moving Dalip Singh to securer confinement, encouraged Muslim zealots to locate him for them and offered hugh rewards for information of his whereabouts. On the other hand, the British tried to portray him as a religious leader to lower his following as a Military or political leader. It was the British officers who coined the term "Karnivala" since it they did not want to admit the failures of their intelligence. Bhai Maharaj Singh, undoubtedly, was certainly a "Miracle Maker" since it became impossible for the British to arrest him. This was due to the support given to him by the public that he was able to hide among the people.

    He was captured together with 21 unarmed followers on Dec, 28 1849, near Adampur. Vansttart, the Deputy Commissioner of Jallundar who arrested him, wrote.

    "The Guru is no ordinary man. He is to the natives what Jesus was to the most zealous of Christians. His miracles were seen by tens of thousands, and are more implicitly believed than those worked by the ancient prophets."

    Even more generous was Mcleod, Commissioner of the Doab,

    " had he remained at large, but a little longer . more outrages of an alarming character would have been attempted . the result of which, .would perhaps be impossible to foretell."

    It was found too risky to put Bhai Maharaj Singh on trial in India and he was deported to Singapore. He arrived on the "Mahomed Shaw", on 9th July 1850, together with a disciple, Khurruck Singh, and moved to Outram Jail. He was kept in solitary confinement in a cell 14 by 15 feet, which, because of the walling up of the windows, had been "further rendered dark, dinghy and absolutely unhealthy" (Secret Consultation Papers, 28th Feb 1851, #52-57). He was practically blind within three years, developed cancer on his tongue, and had rheumatic swellings and pains in his feet and ankles. The Civil Surgeon, Singapore, recommended that Bhai Maharaj Singh be allowed an occasional walk in the open, but this was turned down by the Government of India. The result was that his health continued to deteriorate, and about two months before his death, his neck and tongue became so swollen that it became very difficult for him to swallow.

    Bhai Maharaj Singh died on 5th July 1856. He was cremated on a plot of land outside the prison, presumebably by Khurruck Singh, who also died in prison later. Locals, mainly Hindu Tamils began to revere the spot, marking it with stones. Offerings of flowers found their way there, Sikhs and Muslims joined in. The Sikhs placed a structure on this spot, turning it into a small temple. In 1966, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib was moved to the Silat Road Temple. Only the stones were re-erected outside the temple. Large numbers of Sikhs and non-Sikhs come to the samadh to worship, with offerings of valuables, a practice against Sikh tenets.

    Bhai Maharaj Singh was the head of the Order now known as the Hoti Mardan Valli Sant Khalsa Sampardai, recent illustrious heads were Sant Attar Singh and Sant Isher Singh. He was thus not only a revolutionary fighter but also a recognized religious personage of very high standing. Many believe him to be a "Karniwala".

  11. LAHORE: The Sikh community has alleged that meat, prohibited in their religion, was cooked at Gurdwara Panja Sahib in Hassanabdal, one of the holiest places in Sikhism.

    The community has accused the Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB), the custodian of their religious places, of trying to dump the issue rather than taking steps against those responsible.

    “We demand that an FIR be lodged and the culprits who cooked meat in our Gurdwara be penalised,” community leader Sardar Bishon Singh told The Express Tribune. “Meat, eggs and tobacco are prohibited in Sikhism like pork is in Islam,” he said.

    “The caretaker, along with local Muslim staff, cooked meat in Gurdwara Panja Sahib on Sunday,” said a member of Gurdwara Panja Sahib Sewadar Society Sardar Pretam Singh. “It is unfortunate for Sikhs that custodians of their religious places, who are almost all Muslims, have been involved in violation of their faith,” said Bishon Singh.

    Pretam Singh added that he caught one staff member red-handed with meat in the Gurdwara’s kitchen. “When I complained to the caretaker of the Gurdwara, Memrooz Khan, he rebuffed my plea,” he said.

    ETPB’s additional secretary and deputy administrator then conducted an inquiry and transferred all staff from the Gurdwara. “We demanded that all employees involved in the act should at least be suspended, but ETPB refused to do so,” Rajan Singh said.

    Sardar Bishon Singh said that anyone who desecrates a religious place should be tried under section 295 of the Pakistan Penal Code, he added.

    ETPB’s Deputy Administrator Faraz Abbas told The Express Tribune that he was not sure whether anyone cooked meat at the Gurdwara, but on complaints by the community, all staff has been transferred and new people have been appointed.
