Off course fascism/violence in anyform or by anyone against innocent (be it in past, present or future) should be condemned period regardless whoever it is.... Ajnala Singh group keeps coming up again and again for obvious reasons as they are the ones actually using intimidation, violence beating up people instead of having potency to have simple debate or discussion and also making the videos putting them up online its definitely seems to advertently or inadvertently radicalising sikh youths online , advertently or inadvertently instilling fear mongering, war mongering among minorities who may have different belief as them. But on positive note, it opens door for discussion, introspect, different approach, recommendation, awareness of issues in community among masses. Nihangs/udasi threaten to use physical violence against kala afghana chelas should be condemned as well. However, they fall short to actually use violence against kala afghana quite the contary actually where we have polite yet firm debate between baba nihal singh ji nihang and kala afghana atleast i m not aware of other such case...But nevertheless, if violent threats are made then there should be condemnation and legal action should be taken. New age taksali themselves are more guilty of using not just threats by actual physical attempted violence against ghagha- kala afghana chelas on tops of it, infront of sri guru granth sahib maharaj, maharaj hazoori. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxOOsq_19Fw Anyway i like to keep it simple it as i am looking at this from non partisan politics, fascism/violence in any form or by anyone against innocents should be condemned period regardless of tribal group attachment.

Again i have no problem calling spade an spade wrong an wrong, just because violence unjustifed force against innocent was used by anyone regardless in the past does not make it right, such actions should be highlighted regardless for the reasons i stated below.

Let me clarify, i support recording of videos of such incidents regardless whatever the situation might be or whoever it might be as it opens room for discussion, introspect, clarifications, discussion for different approach, recommendation, criminal charges and also holds people actions/ groups accountable infront of sangat, and not only that- it also helps raises awareness learn and grow from it. This hush hush attitude of not recording or not posting/reporting such violent incident videos online hinders our community growth also one misses to address issues in the community. For example- if there was no video recording of such violent incidents no one would have been aware of it or condemn it...those who have come across in real life, they would move on as daily occurrence and moved on without any introspection or any reporting. Since these videos are online, it invokes introspection, second thoughts/opinion discussion regarding fascism issue in the community as community can draw narrative and learn from it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G0FV_rRso8 This above video reminds of this sakhi: source: divan of sarmad fakir by sant isher singh ji rara sahib Sarmad Fakir was very popular fakir in Islam. He was matyr by fascist Auranzeb. Here is one of sakhi his encounter with Auranzeb sevak. According to shariah law, one have to cover their head and cover their body fully all the time. Sarmad fakir was walking down one of the muslim went to Auranzeb and told him you can't control your own people..how can you control the whole india? Auranzeb asked him, what happened? He replied there is this fakir sarmad...he is careless(bai parvah) and doesn't follow shariah law. Auranzeb went to sort out this issue. Auranzeb was on the elephant. He stopped sarmad fakir and asked him "Fakir ji, you don't have topi or turban on your head and even your body is not covered shariah law doesn't allow that. Fakir replied with bei parvah tone, are you blind?? can't you see? My khula(topi) has four colors and if one have controlled all the desires, vices..he doesn't need to wear any clothes. His stage is shant/his mind in the peace. Auranzeb responded with humour and said " you don't even have ripped cloth on your head...what colors you have on your topi"?? Fakir responded with calmness..blind people can't say. I have four colors: 1. Tarakh Duniya : Gave up all the duniya/wordly/materialstic things. 2. Tarakh Ukbah: Gave up all the heaven paradise, different levels of heaven. 3: Tarakh Mullah: Gave up the desire of meeting Allah. Because once you have met him even that desire goes shant. 4. Tarakh- Tarakh Gave up khudi/Ego. Khudi has three layers: Tamasi Khudi/Tamogani- Consider himself/herself deh(body)..forgotten about the atma and accept the habits of deh(body) which effect atma. Rajshi Khudi/Rajo Guni - Consider themselves beautiful, successful, confident, smart, intelligent etc. Shanti Khudi/SatoGuni- Consider themselves saints, bhagat, fakir, pagamvar. One who has killed all these three types of khudi can say that I have tyag da tyag/tarakh tarakh. After hearing this auranzeb jailed sarmad fakir. Aurenzeb qazis are now days some sikh talibans abusing other sadhus.

~~Deep Gnosis behind Mahavak in Gurbani~ Source: Taken from commentary of japji sahib teeka by sant gyani gurbachan singh bhindranwale We all heard about term 'mahavaak' during katha discourses of gurbani in sikh tradition many times. But ever wondered deep gnosis meaning behind the term mahavaak? This small write up is invitation for sikhs (spiritual seekers/learner) to explore deep meanings of mahavak in gurbani so gnosis of mahavak in gurbani be understood and contemplated upon and applied in sikh spiritual quest. In traditional gurmat, mahavaak in gurbani in form of verse, term, mantra or couplet within gurbani means - 'direct knowledge about unity between soul and supreme soul-vahiguru'. Satguru has given apar kirpa(grace) to whole humanity by providing such direct knowledge about unity between soul and supreme soul which meant to be contemplated by seeker who wishes to know truth or their real self.. Sant gyani gurbachan singh khalsa bhindranwale writes in japji sahib teek (pdf page-510) to reiterate importance of gurbani revelation and mahavaks-direct knowledge of unity of soul and supreme soul-vahiguru. Whilst vedas have four main mahavak (direct knowledge of unity between soul and supreme soul). Revelation of gurbani/Gurbani provides countless mahavaks. Sant ji provides examples from gurbani. 1. Satguru nanak dev ji gave updesh to advance seeker/learner(sikh). Here satguru gives direct knowledge of unity between soul and supreme soul in this mahavak- Tu sada salamat nirankar. Satguru repeats this mahavak four times in Panch parvan, Asankh jaap, Asankh Morakh, Asankh Nav couplets in japji sahib. Commentary of tu sada salamat nirankar(japji sahib teek pdf page- 483): Question was asked by spiritual seeker (sikh) to satguru nanak dev ji what is my saroop? or my identity? Satguru nanak dev ji responds: Tu (Individual real self-soul) Sada Salamat (Supreme soul-Vahiguroo) Nirankar: Both are nirankar. 2. Nirgun sargun apaie Soi (Ang- 129) 3. Nirgun Aaap Sargun Bhi Ohi (Ang- 297) Sant ji further explains bachans which has sargun and nirgun knowledge of vahiguroo or unity shabads, those are all mahavaks and should be perceived it as such by advance seeker. Advance seeker and seeker who posses such estoeric attributes- requires only small indication (dristan-example). --- Unity of individual soul and supreme soul also written in rest of gurbani. For example- ਆਤਮਾ ਪਰਾਤਮਾ ਏਕੋ ਕਰੈ ॥ आतमा परातमा एको करै ॥ Āṯmā parāṯamā eko karai. His soul and the Supreme Soul become one. ਅੰਤਰ ਕੀ ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਮਰੈ ॥੧॥ अंतर की दुबिधा अंतरि मरै ॥१॥ Anṯar kī ḏubiḏẖā anṯar marai. ||1|| The duality of the inner mind is overcome. ||1|| ਆਤਮੇ ਨੋ ਆਤਮੇ ਦੀ ਪ੍ਰਤੀਤਿ ਹੋਇ ਤਾ ਘਰ ਹੀ ਪਰਚਾ ਪਾਇ ॥ आतमे नो आतमे दी प्रतीति होइ ता घर ही परचा पाइ ॥ Āṯme no āṯme ḏī parṯīṯ ho▫e ṯā gẖar hī parcẖā pā▫e. If the individual soul has faith in the Supreme Soul, then it shall obtain realization within its own home. Also bachan by sri guru gobind singh ji in sri dasam granth sahib- gyan parbodh: ਚਰਿਓ ਆਤਮਾ ਪਰਾਤਮਾ ਸੰਗ ॥ ਉਤਭੁਜ ਸਰੂਪ ਅਬਿਗਤ ਅਭੰਗ ॥ उचरिओ आतमा परातमा संग ॥ उतभुज सरूप अबिगत अभंग ॥ The soul said to the Higher Soul; the Germinating Entity, Unmanifested and Invincible; ਇਹ ਕਉਨ ਆਹਿ ਆਤਮਾ ਸਰੂਪ ॥ ਜਿਹ ਅਮਿਤ ਤੇਜ ਅਤਿਭੂਤਿ ਬਿਭੂਤਿ ॥੨॥੧੨੭॥ इह कउन आहि आतमा सरूप ॥ जिह अमित तेज अतिभूति बिभूति ॥२॥१२७॥ What is this Soul Entity? Which hath indelible glory and which is of queer substance."2.127. ਪਰਾਤਮਾ ਬਾਚ ॥ परातमा बाच ॥ The Higher Soul said: ਯਹਿ ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਆਹਿ ਆਤਮਾ ਰਾਮ ॥ ਜਿਹ ਅਮਿਤ ਤੇਜਿ ਅਬਿਗਤ ਅਕਾਮ ॥ यहि ब्रहम आहि आतमा राम ॥ जिह अमित तेजि अबिगत अकाम ॥ This Soul is itself Brahman;" Who is of Everlasting Glory and is Unmanisfested and Desireless. ਜਿਹ ਭੇਦ ਭਰਮ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਮ ਕਾਲ ॥ ਜਿਹ ਸਤ੍ਰ ਮਿਤ੍ਰ ਸਰਬਾ ਦਿਆਲ ॥੩॥੧੨੮॥ जिह भेद भरम नहीं करम काल ॥ जिह सत्र मित्र सरबा दिआल ॥३॥१२८॥ Who is indiscriminate, actionless and deathless; Who hath no enemy and friend and is Merciful towards all.3.1228. ---- Above discourse is dedicated to sant gyani gurbachan singh bhindranwale on their barsi, sant ji japji sahib teeka and above gurbani katha in japji sahib steek is gift to sikh world on their barsi. This is meant to be understood and contemplated on and applied by sikhs from all walks of life.

So even if mona pictures are of sant mani singh ? what does that proof? Whole aim of sikhi is through transformation of human being (who has forgotten his real self in avidya/ignorance) to realize their real self via gurbani, naam simran and seva. Its quite disgusting how they are holding his previous life against him as if these people dropped right out of sky - suchaie, as param hans.

Myth is a interesting subject kind of related with overall higher message in shalok nauvan how world is utter illusion just like bubble in a water or sand dunes that includes sarguna arth of whole chandi devar, chandi charitar etc as from adhyatamic perspective- everything is inside/inner battle. From Advait -Non dual transcendence from One universal Awareness/consciousness/the Absolute perspective, everything is ONE second to one is all mithiya-false illusion- more else illusion or myth as everything else is nothing but ਜਿਮੀ ਜਮਾਨ ਕੇ ਬਿਖੈ ਸਮਸਤ ਏਕ ਜੋਤਿ ਹੈ ॥ Within all the earth and sky, there is only one Light. ਨ ਘਾਟ ਹੈ ਨ ਬਾਢ ਹੈ ਨ ਘਾਟ ਬਾਢ ਹੋਤ ਹੈ ॥ Which neither decreases nor increases in any being, It never decreases or increases. But since we are all talking from sarguna perspective- historical/stories/events hold significance be it good qualities(be it jaat or sat), inspiration, sarguna vahiguroo and its bhagat/sevadars are shared among all of humanity to take qualities from. However, once we (who are still stuck in sarguna perspective) claim everything as myth we fall into very dangerous slippery slope so some caution is needed. You tell hindus all their historical figures are myth, they will turn around quote gurbani-japji sahib, har jug jug bhagat upaya -half tiger/half man narsingh avtar killed harnakash etc example from aad sri guru granth sahib ji and sri dasam granth - chaubis avtars, explicit quotes mentioning their figures in gurbani then one will end up with two choices- a) stand corrected b) fall right into void of ignorance realm which many missionaries have fell into start doing khandan-mandan of everything. I don't think we should use word myth but rather use term- Non dual transcendence absolute perspective itself as it provides some proper context/clarity.

I like tibetan model which works very well in current day and age...Tibet has pm who is highly educated/diplomatic and is working closely with his counterpart dalai lama-spiritual advisor/leader while dala lamai spiritual leader is public figure, travels all around the world- winning public opinion of mass regarding autonomous tibet... tibet pm - Lobsang Sangay. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobsang_Sangay In fact I do beleive sant jarnail singh bhindranwale never intended to be head of punjab autonomous state alone or beleived in ayatollah type iran , if everything were to go well he would have worked very closely with bhai amrik singh ji who was very educated, made him diplomatic political economical leader while him fully concentrating on religious/spiritual/gurmat schooling(taksal).

When ram Chander JI became happy at Hanuman after looking at this jat and sat, ram gave him kachera..pointing towards jatta and sat qualities and alluding towards early ancient use of kachera. Gurbani patt darshan page- 62 by sant gurbachan singh bhindranwale On another note, here is post by khalis Very good explanation regarding this which was also used for parchar: http://www.sikhsangat.com/index.php?/topic/66400-origen-of-the-5ks-hindu-devtas/?p=536494

Very good thread : http://www.sikhawareness.com/topic/10262-origins-of-sikhism/

Indeed so, I am going through 800 pages long japji sahib teeka pdf by sant gyani gurbachan singh bhindranwale amount of cross platform framework similarities we share with indic/snatan/hindu texts/figures is astounding, teeka is filled with references from shared wider indic/hindu sources ie- textual references be it sakhiya, bravery snatan (ancient) sakhiya of hanuman, sita etc based on gurbani, vedantic-dristha famework, patanjog meditation framework(Yoga chit virthi nirodha), vaishaava bhagti framework avtar metaphysics, atma-paratma framework, three types of reality, three types of gunas-sato, rajo, tamo, turiya, panj tat many more

Here is compilation on gnosis definition of NAAM-

Gyani thakur singh ji patliawale talks about sant ji bhagti in their katha...so far this is what i have gathered from their katha: - Sant Ji did 22 hrs-23 hrs of gurbani naam abhyaas very day on top of nitnem...they very fond of anand sahib... *Those who have doubts hows that possible, basically when shabad jot or shabad pure consciousness consumes one or takes over or when one dies in shabad pure consciouness.....it takes over all the body needs, gives energy/refreshment to body instead of regular human body nourishment like water, food or sleep etc - Sant Ji had darshan of sri guru gobind singh maharaj at hazoor sahib where he was given agya to start dharam yudh morcha. This one below i heard from another senior gurmukh: - Once panthic vidvans came to sant ji prior to dharam yudh morcha to discuss about sri dasam granth arths..they were astonished to see how much parkash or tej/jvala anubhav parkash flowed through sant ji had when sant ji did arths of dasam granth, it was pure spontaneous antriv arths in nature which they never heard before, it was pure anubhav parkash (avastha of bhramgyani) which flowed through them..not sure which composition of sri dasam granth it was..

I thought panj pyares took amrit because of bhau(nira love) bhagti for guru maharaj-did full surrender to maharaj without any any any conditions or reservations or bargaining whatsoever period and thats what we should do - love has no conditions first develop nira pyaar for satguru maharaj then there will not be any doubts. Doubts arise only when one has all kind of pre- conditioning. pre conceived notions, expectations, when one wants to just fit in or part of "elite group", one wants to live privileged sense of spiritual security life, when one wants to bargain in sikhi..i m sorry mukhi cannot be attained by bargaining in sikhi. Again we take amrit for unconditional love for our guru maharaj its game of love and surrender the body, mind, ego, realize who am i?... all of it thats should be enough proper reasons to take amrit, not because to fit in , one wants to bargain or live in privileged life- be in a special group with special rights. All conditioning perceptions that too can incur more haumae, give false sense of security, also causes more hindrances within as opposed to all self effort with earnestly. As far as non amritdharis reciting gurbani- naam reciting naam with full sharda prem and with truth, having moksh icha they too can get saved just like ganka papan, another bhagat (i forgot his name) who recited vahiguroo name- narayan. There are many examples in gurbani whoever recited naam with sharda and prem for nirgun parbhram vahiguroo got saved...we need to realized satguru nanak dev nirankar cannot be confined into sargun saroop only and cannot be interperated as christian prophet like figure...Ultimate saroop of satguru nanak dev maharaj is shabad and its gyan- Ikongkar satgurparsad - IKongkar- One all pervading universal jot, Satgurparsad- Sat(Truth) Gur(Supreme conscicouness) Anand(Bliss) that utlimate saroop is realized by satguru kirpa (grace). Speaking of grace- Satguru nanak dev maharaj does not need permission from us which saroop he uses to guide bhagats, help bhagats, save bhagats...he is all prevading jot....he was there all along saving bhagats in infinite number of ways, giving them mukhti(infinite number of ways) from aad - aad sach, jugad sach, habhi sach, nanak hosi bhi sach. Vahiguroo/Satguru Nanak Grace is ever present. If one is drawn to naam or vahiguroo ji (question which force is drawing you to recite naam or vahiguroo its not egoic mind even though one think it is) that itself is form of grace, when one is been guided within via inner voice (divine guidance) that itself is form of grace of vahiguroo/satguru nanak dev ji, when one even thinks of vahiguroo ji that itself because of grace of of satguru ji/vahgiuroo ji, when one progresses in naam that itself is grace of satguru ji via nirankar form- shabad and its shabad gyan- pure consciousness roop, if one recites naam thats because of grace of maharaj, any progress in spirituality is due to grace, everything happening is grace as it eventually grace unfolds itself helps seeker eventually. Make no mistake- Grace is here and now either wake up to it or don't and its not any religion personal property..!!!!

Very interesting questions and answers between Satguru nanak dev ji and baba (utam jaigaso) regarding che ghar che gur che updesh in kirtan sohila. Here is detailed commentary by sant gyani gurbachan singh bhindranwale regarding satguru nanak dev ji updesh in kirtan sohila. In this kirtan sohila commentary below (from japji sahib teeka -sant gyani gurbachan singh khalsa bhindranwale): - Commentary provides detailed summary of all six shastars and how one can take gunas (good attributes) from each one of them as an aid (shahik) and how each one of them points out aspects(some small/small big) of parbhram - analogy was given of six blind soldiers all of sudden given eye sigh to show aspects of elephant- try to express elephant based on what they saw -at times writers of each shastars even fighting among themselves but answer was given to all including them - gur gur iko vesh anek and commentary based on gurbani answer also show again via analogy- how six soldiers get together make big langar or bhojan by doing its part- some one is making tarka, dal, ata, sabji, roti all in efforts to get rid of hunger. - Based on gurbani answer (Gur gur iko vesh anek) How ultimately there is no duality as such regarding che ghar che gur che updesh as guru of six shastars were bayas ji and guru of bayass ji were bhrama ji but ultimately guru of all - gur gur iko vesh anek- Ikongkar Satgurparsad Ik advait saraie parkashik roop paremshvar which is sat chit anand saroop. - Question was asked by utam jiagaso to satguru nanak dev ji- which ghar (school of thought) i should be in- Satguru nanak dev ji responds in return- Karte Kirat Hoi- In house of ghar where karta purkh glories are sung and karta purkh praises are glorified, celebrtated- Kirtan Bhakti. So ghar rakh, vadai toi || According to sant ji commentary pandit tara singh narotam interpertets- karte kirat hoi- considers patanjal yog and vedant shastar- beyes ji (5, 6 ghar). (probably based on other two aspects of gurmat sidhant-naam simran and advait gyan ) - Further in commentary, antriv arths and explanations were provided to illustrate further answer in gurbani (Soraj ek, rout anek)- non dual aspect- advait gurmat and also to answer the question asked by baba-utam jaigaso- how to see ek bhram in all six shastars?. This profound and full in depth detailed commentary of couplet from kirtan sohila is in japji sahib teeka under kirtan sohila katha pdf page 1024-1035. Reference : Damdami taksal pehli pothi - Kirtan sohila katha pdf page 1024-1035. http://www.gurmatveechar.com/literature?browse=Steeks_and_Teekas/Sant_Kartar_Singh_%28Bhindrawale%29

There is no clear cut answer to question: Are We God Loving Or God Fearing Sikhs For some sikhs (learner/seeker)- god is perceived as love right away via gurbani when sikh (learner/seeker) get into sikhi so they right away- start developing more personal love for god which eventually turns into unconditional impersonal all prevading love for god. For other sikhs (learner/seeker) god in intial stages is naturally perceived as fear, and therefore god fearing since one's mind is in panj chors, in order to make them realize their wrong doing and take them out of maya- Gurbani gives them tarna (scolding), gives many cautionary warnings-consequences bachans so they mend their wrong doings, but as seeker progresses slowly that same fear is turned into love. So journey often starts from fear (one point or another) but sikhi is not confined in static fear, its transition process - from fear to personal love to impersonal love- all prevading love.

I have full faith that there are rare pearls gurmukhs but in gupt form in all groups who are bariaagi tyaagi doing bhagti who sees this world and realize this world as a dream- illusion who have no desire in outside affairs. Youths need to search for those gurmukhs and they need to be approached to be in panj seva of this new initiative..They should be approached with indication/message below (kept in mind) of Sant Baba Attar Singh Ji Mustaneywale Maharaj....Here sant maharaj giving indication how leader nature in form of (panj or not) should be.

To say sikh punjabi community or sikhs in general are not affected by tribal issues is understatement of century.

This awakes bhagti, Vahiguroo amazing shabad:

Good videos...i totally support his initiative:

I think we can discuss semantics over the takth term little bit in later stage, main point i picked from bhai sahib ji video is that we lack leadership in abroad western countries. According to my observation, every group is doing its own thing in segragation, working for best interest for "their group" "their cause" than best interest for khalsa panth in whole or its image..they will try everything to save their group people, throw everyone(inculding victims) under the bus..Most highly attached group people think their group is panth thats it. They work in silos in isiolation- come out together once an while even then in rallies in groups with their own lot go back to their comfort zone. But people are waking up as well - khalsa aid is showing its done treating humanity as one, basic of sikhi guys among others so its not all bad , lot of improvement already done but lot more is required as well. Please see post- http://www.sikhsangat.com/index.php?/topic/69848-individual-cultish-perception-and-the-khalsa-panth/ Inculsiveness, Intergration with one voice (One khalsa voice) abroad, speaking, promoting ONE VOICE is key not excusliveness or segragation. But this has to come from top, youth's leaders- panj pyares, youths are not directly involved in this, senior gurmukhs of each group first need to realize there is a problem, then come fwd and only way they have my vote, by actions not lip service, not by small token of sanjha ekta events but consistently show by actions that they were willing to work with other gurmukhs from other groups -work out differences. Youths need to take torch and try to find one of five beloveds from their group who does not beleive in dvaish(partiality) but who has main quality of gurmukh- ek dristh, sam dristh, advait vaadi (gurmat)-nitnemi, keep rehit who is willing to put overall bigger interest of khalsa panth than nitty gritty differences or their group interest. It's going to be hard there will be lot of challenges (thats why i suggest very group has voting a year- to pick one leader from group with 70% approval vote), but this has to start somewhere- http://www.sikhsangat.com/index.php?/topic/74707-new-takht-outside-india-led-by-panj-pyaare/?p=609967 Don't let elders dictate terms for you, they will trap you in whirlpool of bhamalbussa, shaft you around right, left and center but rather youths should connect to gurbani directly let gurbani dictate terms or lay out qualities for gurmukh/khalsa, every youth needs to search for qualities for gurmukh in their group, if they cannot find it out- get outta picture, develop more direct relationship with gurbani...trust me you don't need anything else. Yes look for leadership but if you cannot find it, take the role for yourself like bhai sahib ji has done... Once gurbani dawns on ya, it will drive you into leadership eventually.
