LET'S SUPPORT JUSREIGN! WATCH HIS VIDEOS, LET'S GET HIM LOADS OF VIEWS! :D

I know a few. (Not a good thing).

Please look into using unicode fonts, as on Android it's coming up as dodgey English.

Also, there is a few grammatical errors, such as:

The title says "Todays Hukamnama from Harmandir Sahib" it should be "Today's Hukamnama from Sri Harmandir Sahib, Amritsar",

Also, 'Punjabi' should be spelt with an "A" = Panjabi.

Sorry to be picky! :D Please forgive me. But these changes will make it look more cool! :D

Very nice idea for an app. Very good! :D :khalsa2:

OPEN LETTER TO THE SIKH NATION

SGPC Elections Set for September 18

Legislative Assembly Elections Early Next Year

Choose Honest Leadership Committed to Sikh Freedom

Don’t Miss This Peaceful, Democratic Opportunity to Liberate Khalistan

Dear Khalsa Ji:

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA, WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH!

Elections for the SGPC have been set for September 18. As you know, the SGPC is the organiztion that controls all the Gurdwaras in Punjab. In addition, Legislative Assembly elections are set for February 2012. Do not miss this opportunity for Sikhs to install honest, dedicated leadership. Choose only leaders who are committed to Khalsa Raj. Only when Khalistan is free will the repression of our Sikh brothers and sisters end. Only when Khalistan is free can Sikhs live in prosperity, security, and dignity. Only when Khalistan is free of Indian occupation can Punjab’s farmers get a fair price for their crops. Only when Khalistan is free will our water stop being diverted to nonriparian states. These elections provide an opportunity to reclaim our freedom.

The Guru granted sovereignty to the Sikh Nation, saying “In Grieb Sikhin Ko Deon Patshahi.” The Sikh Nation must achieve its independence to fulfill the mandate of the Guru. We always remember it by reciting every morning and evening, “Raj Kare Ga Khalsa.” Now is the time to act on it. Do we mean what we say every morning and evening?

We must remove Parkash Singh Badal and his allies from power. Remember, Badal's allies in the SGPC removed Akal Takht Jathedar Vedanti after he spoke out for Khalsitan. Badal disgraced the Sikh Nation by running the most corrupt government in Punjab’s history. His government was so corrupt, they even came up with a new term for bribery: “fee for service.” If you didn’t pay the fee, you didn’t get the service. Clearly, the Akalis do not merit the Sikh Nation’s support. Badal also broke his campaign promises. He promised to release all the political prisoners. Yet according to the Movement Against State Repression (MASR), the Indian regime admitted to holding 52,268 Sikhs as political prisoners. They are being held without charge or trial, some of them since 1984! How can a democratic state hold political prisoners? He promised to punish police officials who have committed atrocities against Sikhs since 1984. No such action was ever taken. Where is the punishment of Swaran Singh Ghotna, who murdered Jathedar Gurdev Singh Kaunke? Where is the punishment of the police officers who kidnapped and murdered Sardar Jaswant Singh Khalra? He promised to appoint a commission to study the human-rights violations against the Sikhs, but when such a commission was formed by concerned Sikhs, he shut it down and denied it a meeting place. Unfortunately, there is no difference between Badal and his nephew Manpreet, who has consorted with the Communist Party. His party will not help to advance the cause of the Sikhs either.

The Congress Party is no better. Badal's daughter is married to Adesh Pratap Singh Kairon, grandson of the Congrss Party Chief Minister of the 1950s, Pratap Singh Kairon. The Badals have their tentacles in all the parties. Congress is the party that invaded and desecrated the Golden Temple and 125 other Sikh Gurdwaras throughout Punjab in June 1984 to murder Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and 20,000 other Sikhs, including General Shabeg Singh, Bhai Amrik Singh, and over 100 Sikh religious students ages 8-13 who were taken out into the courtyard and shot. No conscientious Sikh can support the Congress Party. It is the enemy of the Sikh Nation. If Sikhs will not even protect the sanctity of the Golden Temple, how can the Sikh Nation survive as a nation?

Sikhs must speak for, work for, and vote for candidates committed to freeing our homeland, Punjab, Khalistan, from Indian occupation. Let us take this opportunity to put people in office who will work for Sikh freedom and will work to give the Sikh Nation a free and fair plebiscite on freedom for Khalistan.

The Sikh Nation must support candidates who will support Sikh freedom. Dal Khalsa has been very active, marching, speaking, rallying, an otherwise promoting Khalistan. Sardar Atinder Pal Singh, leader of the Akali Dal (Khalistani) an a a former Member of Parliament, has been a consistent supporter of Khalistan, even asking on the floor of Parliament why we could not have Khalistan. Candidates of their parties or whom they support should be supported by the Sikh Nation. And the candidates of S.S. Mann's Akali Dal (Amritsar) are supporters of Khalistan, as well. In addition, the All-India Sikh Students Federation has decided to contest the SGPC elections, according to PTI. We call on Sikhs in Punjab to support these candidates and others who are supporting the cause of a free Khalistan. In addition, where there are not such freedom-minded candidates, we call on distinguished Sikh leaders such as Justice Ajit Singh Bains, Professor Gurdarshan Singh Dhillon, Professor Gurtej Singh, and others to run themselves or find candidates who reflect their views. And we call on them to give a ticket to deserving, educated political prisoners. This will help to get the political prisoners freed and will help to put people on the SGPC and in the Legislative Assembly who are committed to Sikh freedom and sovereignty. After the elections, the Legislative Assembly can pass a resolution for the independence of Khalistan, as declared on October 7, 1987.

Remember the words of Professor Darshan Singh, former Jathedar of the Akal Takht: “If a Sikh is not a Khalistani, he is not a Sikh.” The time to achieve our independence is now. India is not one country. It is a polyglot empire thrown together under one roof for the administrative convenience of the British colonialists. It has 18 official languages. History shows that such countries are doomed to fall apart. India will collapse just like the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Soviet Union, and other multinational states such as Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia.

According to former Member of Parliament Simranjit Singh Mann, the Indian government has murdered more than a million Sikhs since 1982. This aligns with a threat made by the former Speaker of the Lok Sabha, Balram Jakhar, who said, "If we have to kill a million Sikhs to preserve our territorial integrity, so be it." India has also killed more than 300,000 Christians in Nagaland and murdered priests, raped nuns, burned churches, and destroyed Christian schools and prayer halls. They expelled missionary Joseph Cooper from the country after militant Hindu nationalists beat him up so badly that he had to be in the hospital for a week. Missionary Graham Staines and his two young sons were burned to death while sleeping in their jeep by a mob of militant Hindus chanting “Victory to Hannuman,” a Hindu god. Over 100,000 Muslims in Kashmir, 2,000 to 5,000 Muslims in Gujarat while the police were under orders to stand aside and let the massacre occur, a frightening parallel to the 1984 Delhi massacres of Sikhs, and tens of thousands of Tamils, Assamese, Manipuris, Bodos, Dalits (“untouchables”, the aboriginal people of India), and others have been murdered by the Indian regime. A report issued by the Movement Against State Repression (MASR) quotes the Punjab Civil Magistracy as writing “if we add up the figures of the last few years the number of innocent persons killed would run into lakhs [hundreds of thousands.]” The Indian Supreme Court called the Indian government's murders of Sikhs "worse than a genocide.”

India is a fundamentalist Hindu theocracy, not secular or democratic at all. Remember what Narinder Singh, a spokesman for the Golden Temple, told America’s National Public Radio in 1997: “The Indian government, they are always boasting that they are democratic, that they are secular. They have nothing to do with a secularism, nothing to do with a democracy. They just kill Sikhs just to please the majority.”

Soon Kashmir will be free from Indian occupation. As L.K. Advani predicted, “When Kashmir goes, India goes.” We agree with him and we urge the Indian government to hold a free and fair plebiscite on the question of independence and to sit down with representatives of the Sikh Nation to negotiate the boundaries of a sovereign, independent Khalistan. Sikhs must use the upcoming elections to elect representatives who will make certain that India does that. Only by freeing Khalistan will we put an end to this corruption and restore control of Punjab and its assets to the people, to whom it rightfully belongs. A sovereign, independent Khalistan is a must for the survival of the Sikh Nation and will provide an optimal environment for the Sikh Nation to progress to its optimum potential politically, religiously, and economically. Let us take this opportunity to free Khalistan.

Panth Da Sewadar,

Dr. Gurmit Singh Aulakh

President

Council of Khalistan

There are only 14 million Jews in the world; seven million in the Americas, five million in Asia, two million in Europe and 100,000 in Africa. For every single Jew in the world there are 100 Muslims. Yet, Jews are more than a hundred times more powerful than all the Muslims put together. Ever wondered why?

Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish. Albert Einstein, the most influential scientist of all time and TIME magazine's 'Person of the Century', was a Jew. Sigmund Freud - ego, superego - the father of psychoanalysis was a Jew. So were Karl Marx, Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman.

Here are a few other Jews whose intellectual output has enriched the whole of humanity: Benjamin Rubin gave humanity the vaccinating needle. Jonas Salk developed the first polio vaccine. Alert Sabin developed the improved live polio vaccine. Gertrude Elion gave us a leukemia-fighting drug. Baruch Blumberg developed the vaccination for Hepatitis B. Paul Ehrlich discovered a treatment for syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease). Elie Metchnikoff won a Nobel Prize in infectious diseases.

Bernard Katz won a Nobel Prize in neuromuscular transmission. Andrew Schally won a Nobel in endocrinology (disorders of the endocrine system; diabetes, hyperthyroidism). Aaron Beck founded Cognitive Therapy (psychotherapy to treat mental disorders, depression and phobias). Gregory Pincus developed the first oral contraceptive pill. George Wald won a Nobel for furthering our understanding of the human eye. Stanley Cohen won a Nobel in embryology (study of embryos and their development). Willem Kolff came up with the kidney dialysis machine.

Over the past 105 years, 14 million Jews have won 180 Nobel Prizes while only 3 Nobel Prizes have been won by 1.4 billion Muslims (other than Peace Prizes).

Why are Jews so powerful? Stanley Mezor invented the first micro-processing chip. Leo Szilard developed the first nuclear chain reactor; Peter Schultz, the optical fibre cable; Charles Adler - traffic lights; Benno Strauss - stainless steel; Isador Kisee - sound movies; Emile Berliner - the telephone microphone and Charles Ginsburg - the videotape recorder.

Famous financiers in the business world who belong to the Jewish faith include Ralph Lauren (Polo), Levis Strauss (Levi's Jeans), Howard Schultz (Starbuck's) , Sergey Brin (Google), Michael Dell (Dell Computers), Larry Ellison (Oracle), Donna Karan (DKNY), Irv Robbins (Baskins & Robbins) and Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin Donuts).

Richard Levin, President of Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger (American secretary of state), Alan Greenspan (Federal Chairman of Banking under Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush, Jr.), Joseph Lieberman, Senator, Madeleine Albright (former Secretary of State), Maxim Litvinov (USSR Foreign Minister), David Marshal (Singapore's first Chief Minister), Issac Isaacs (Governor-General of Australia), Benjamin Disraeli (British statesman and author), Yevgeny Primakov (Russian Prime Minister), Jorge Sampaio (President of Portugal), Herb Gray (Canadian Deputy Prime Minister), Pierre Mendes (French Prime Minister), Michael Howard (British Home Secretary), Bruno Kreisky (Chancellor of Austria) and Robert Rubin (former Secretary of the Treasury).

In the media, famous Jews include Wolf Blitzer (CNN), Barbara Walters (ABC News), Eugene Meyer (Washington Post), Henry Grunwald (Editor-in-Chief of Time Magazine), Katherine Graham (publisher of The Washington Post), Joseph Lelyyeld (Executive Editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel (New York Times).

Can you name the most beneficent philanthropist in the history of the world? The name is George Soros, a Jew, who has so far donated a colossal $4 billion; most of which has gone as aid to scientists and universities around the world. Second to George Soros is Walter Annenberg, another Jew, who has built a hundred libraries by donating an estimated $2 billion.

At the Olympics, Mark Spitz set a record of sorts by wining seven gold medals. Lenny Krayzelburg is a three-time Olympic gold medalist. Spitz, Krayzelburg and Boris Becker (Tennis) are all Jewish.

Did you know that Harrison Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson, Sandra Bullock, Barbra Streisand, Billy Crystal, Woody Allen, Paul Newman, Peter Sellers, Dustin Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Ben Kingsley, Kirk Douglas, William Shatner, Jerry Lewis and Peter Falk are all Jewish?

As a matter of fact, Hollywood itself was founded by a Jew. Among directors and producers, Steven Spielberg, Mel Brooks, Oliver Stone, Aaron Spelling (Beverly Hills 90210), Neil Simon (The Odd Couple), Andrew Vaina (Rambo's 1, 2 and 3), Michael Mann (Starsky and Hutch), Milos Forman (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), Douglas Fairbanks (The Thief of Baghdad) and Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) are all Jewish.

To be certain, Washington is the capital that matters and in Washington the lobby that matters is The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC. Washington knows that if PM Ehud Olmert were to discover that the earth is flat, AIPAC will make the 109th Congress pass a resolution congratulating Olmert on his discovery.

William James Sidis, with an IQ of 250-300, is the brightest human who ever existed. Guess what faith did he belong to?

So, why are Jews so powerful?

Answer: Education!

Why are Muslims so powerless?

There are an estimated 1,476,233,470 Muslims on the face of the planet: one billion in Asia, 400 million in Africa, 44 million in Europe and six million in the Americas. Every fifth human being is a Muslim. For every single Hindu there are two Muslims, for every Buddhist there are two Muslims and for every Jew there are one hundred Muslims. Ever wondered why Muslims are so powerless?

Here is why: There are 57 member-countries of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC), and all of them put together have around 500 universities; one university for every three million Muslims. The United States has 5,758 universities (1 for every 57,000 Americans) and India has 8,407. In 2004, Shanghai Jiao Tong University compiled an 'Academic Ranking of World Universities', and intriguingly, not one university from Muslim-majority states was in the top 500.

As per data collected by the UNDP, literacy in the Christian world stands at nearly 90 per cent and 15 Christian-majority states have a literacy rate of 100 per cent. A Muslim-majority state, as a sharp contrast, has an average literacy rate of around 40 per cent and there is no Muslim-majority state with a literacy rate of 100 per cent. Some 98 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world had completed primary school, while less than 50 per cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the same. Around 40 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world attended university while no more than two per cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the same.

Muslim-majority countries have 230 scientists per one million Muslims. The U.S. has 4,000 scientists per million and Japan has 5,000 per million. In the entire Arab world, the total number of full-time researchers is 35,000 and there are only 50 technicians per one million Arabs (in the Christian world there are up to 1,000 technicians per one million). Furthermore, the Muslim world spends 0.2 per cent of its GDP on research and development, while the Christian world spends around five per cent of its GDP.

Conclusion: The Muslim world lacks the capacity to produce knowledge.

Daily newspapers per 1,000 people and number of book titles per million are two indicators of whether knowledge is being diffused in a society. In Pakistan, there are 23 daily newspapers per 1,000 Pakistanis while the same ratio in Singapore is 360. In the UK, the number of book titles per million stands at 2,000 while the same in Egypt is 20.

Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to diffuse knowledge.

Exports of high technology products as a percentage of total exports are an important indicator of knowledge application. Pakistan's exports of high technology products as a percentage of total exports stands at one per cent. The same for Saudi Arabia, Kuwait , Morocco , and Algeria (are all at 0.3 per cent) while Singapore is at 58 per cent.

Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to apply knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?

Because we aren't producing knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?

Because we aren't diffusing knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?

Because we aren't applying knowledge.

And, the future belongs to knowledge-based societies.

Interestingly, the combined annual GDP of 57 OIC-countries is under $2 trillion. America, just by herself, produces goods and services worth $12 trillion; China - $8 trillion, Japan - $3.8 trillion and Germany - $2.4 trillion (purchasing power parity basis).

Oil rich Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and Qatar collectively produce goods and services (mostly oil) worth $500 billion; Spain alone produces goods and services worth over $1 trillion; Catholic Poland - $489 billion and Buddhist Thailand - $545 billion. Muslim GDP, as a percentage of worlds GDP, is fast declining.

So, why are Muslims so powerless?

Answer: Lack of education!

All we do is shouting to Allah the whole day and blame everyone else for our multiple failures.

You may be aware that the SGPC has requested Sikh organisations and individuals to give their views regarding the June 1984 Memorial.

See the front page of the SGPC web site: http://www.sgpc.net/, which requests responses in writing by 28 July 2011.

The Sikh Federation (UK) has today sent a letter via email to the SGPC regarding the June 1984 Memorial.

We suggest Gurdwaras, Sikh organisations and individual Sikhs to keep sending emails to info@sgpc.net along the following lines,

or you can simply copy and paste this email. Please forward this link to all your friends and family.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

We request the June 1984 Memorial to be:

i) a constant reminder of the Indian army assault on the Akaal Takht in June 1984;

ii) built in a prominent position next to the Akaal Takht

iii) built by a specified target date i.e. June 2012 as the memorial is long overdue; and above all else

iv) reflect the words of Sant Jarnail Singh Khalsa Bhindranwale, namely:

"Let it be known, when the Indian Army sets foot into the Golden Temple Complex, the foundation stone of Khalistan will be laid."

Try Sangat Television, they'll let him do Kirtan on TV.

Please get intouch with mod HSingh, he can help?

I think there are a few amritdharis (remember reading somewhere) who say that the Vaheguru Mantra is more effective for amritdharis due to it being the mantra that is given to them when they are initiated into the Khalsa panth. Is this true? Some I think even go as far as saying that it is only meant for amritdharis. Is this the case?

Is there any point in a non amritdhari doing Vaheguru simran or should they stick to Ram/Har simran until/if they decide to take amrit?

Thanks

Simple reply: ANYONE can recite the mantar Vaheguroo.

Even if you're a Hindu, Muslim or Christian.

We don't bury our dead as we don't want to clutter the earth with dead bodies,

so we can use that land of good. Like a youth centre, dharamshala etc.?

Sikhi is very logical...

Hindus have their mumbo jumbo thoughts. We just do it for the betterment of the earth.

Hindu scripture order prompts row in Karnataka state

Opposition parties and minority groups in India's Karnataka state are angry that the Hindu scripture, Bhagvad Gita, must be taught in schools.

The state authorities recently directed schools to teach the Hindu holy book for three hours a week.

Education Minister Visveswara Hegde Kageri said that those who did not want to learn the Gita should leave India.

Opponents of the move say that the state government order violates their constitutional rights.

The state is governed by the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

"Only those who want to promote religious ideologies of foreign countries are protesting the Bhagvad Gita classes," Mr Kageri said recently.

"If they want to promote their ideologies, they have no place in this country. They should leave."

His comments have angered the opposition Congress and Janata Dal (Secular) parties who have petitioned Governor HR Bharadwaj to stop the programme immediately.

The governor, too, has described Mr Kageri's controversial comment as "unwise and unfortunate".

Christian and Muslim leaders have said the government is "trying to cause communal disharmony".

They said the order violated the constitutional rights of educational institutions of minority communities.

The Minorities Instiutions' Federation has also filed a petition in the Karnataka high court challenging the government's order.

The court last week asked the state and federal governments to explain the education department's circular.

In his defence, Mr Kageri said the BJP government in Karnataka neither sponsored nor funded the exercise.

He said the Gita had been taught in schools since 2007 and that some people were trying to create a controversy.

"The government had only asked the education department to extend its co-operation to the programme as it had been doing for other programmes like planting of saplings organised by various organisations," news agency Press Trust of India quoted Mr Kageri as saying.
