  1. The problem arises when we put artists like Mann on some sort of figurative podium above everyone else. That forms some sort of expectation that they're supposed to say and do the right thing. Once we are able to tear down the mental idolatry of these individuals we won't give two hoots what these guys say nor will we feel insecure every time they do or don't do something that is questionable. We've succumbed to complaining about artists such as Mann instead of educating our youth and building our community. We're all responsible and shouldn't diffuse responsibility on others. Babbu Maan made a song about Baba Ranjit SIngh Dhadrianwale calling out how he was abusing the very respected title of Sant and Sikhi to further himself as an individual through money, but after a while Baba Ranjit SIngh Dhadrianwale must have had an epiphany and he has changed for the better - the extent only he himself knows. I know about Mann and many artists being complicit with dushts of the panth and their lack of jameer, but are we so fallen that we care so much about these artists that we feel offended every time they do something? That to me only shows a sign of weakness of having failed.
  2. Doesn't seem impressive at all. Looks like the Indian state consciously or subconsciously are pumping up Sikhs to be cannon fodder without proper training. If you look at many special forces in India they've employed a lot of training from USA, Israel, Philipines for various tactics and I have yet to see anything of significance in Punjab in terms of Sikh regiment. They know despite Sikhs serving when push comes to shove if things go down there is a potential of General Shubeg SInghs.
  3. Really haven't experienced much racism that I can recall on top of my head, but I guess there have been a few incidents that are borderline prejudiced that I can recall. For the most part in person people aren't as bad as it's being portrayed Post President Trump. The same idiots were always there, but now trolls capitalize on the hysteria on the internet. In person I haven't really seen really many changes. I would like to think I'm very good at picking up social queues and judging social situations quite well, but who knows maybe I'm just bad at it. For the most part I think that people are more ignorant than anything and I'm confident that the Universal ideals and message of Guru Nanak Dev Ji would always bring understanding and light to any sort of ignorance or misplaced prejudiced people may have. The main problem is political correctness is so rampant that sometimes I find people who practice political correctness are often more racist and ignorant than those who are what we/I would define as 'ignorant'. It prevents discussions from happening and doesn't foster authentic person to person interaction. I guess California really is all sunshine and orange trees though. At least from the general region where I'm from haha Going to queue this song because it perfectly describes how it is here in Cali.
  4. Brilliant clips. The western description of the Nihangs during Maharaja Ranjit Singh's time is hard for me to completely accept even though it is probably mostly, if not completely true.
  5. Bump. Share it on Whatsapp as well if you all can.
  6. Her heart seems to be in the right place, but the video was so cringe I couldn't watch it all. Ecofriendly and healthy langar should be promoted in the right way while respecting Sangat.
  7. http://www.sikh24.com/2017/02/09/uk-mentally-challenged-person-said-to-be-behind-beadbi-at-woolwich-gurdwara/#.WJvXF1UrKUk
  8. Masand in lion uniform. UKLondon back at it again with the new user ID..
  9. Anand Karaj is not a ritual. It's Sikhs pledging their life to the way of Gurmat and prerequiste to that is to believe Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as your Guru. If person doesn't even believe in Sikhi then it is insulting our faith and Guru laid Anand Karaj. People like Sukh Virk go out and drink and have cut hair, but they try to act like they are Sikhs just because they're Punjabi. Typical pindoo, narrow minded Punjabi
  10. Both sides are at fault if you point it out or if you part-take in it false pride.
  11. A Sikh extremist would protect the weak, meditate on Vaheguru's name, live life with True Prem, recognize human race as one and do seva. Sukh Virk, you seem like Sunny Hundal in a sense that you're clearly a white washed young adult with cut hair. What makes you want to post on a Sikh forum constantly slandering Sikhs?
  12. It's government's agenda to also attempt to take control of Harmandir Sahib. Promoting tourism will make them try to sneak in by health inspectors and building inspectors like when they recently intentionally flooded Harmandir Sahib. Some say they are trying to demolish and heighten to install murtian inside. It's not a conspiracy it's truth.
  13. Utterly disgusting. SGPC need to be replaced by Sikhs.
  14. Really interesting watch and great to see Nihang Singhs supporting such a good art!
  15. Unfortunately you're right. It's hard to defend him when he hasn't publicly condemned them by name. He has said he isn't a "machinery" (missionary), but that's not enough because he allowed them to come take stage with him.
  16. Her story seems too on point and fishy when she mentioned Punjab da mahoul. I find it disturbing most people aren't even acknowledging the possibility that these people were paid to say this or do this. Just like a crazy person who was whispered to do something if you retaliate against just crazy person it isn't truly getting to the root of who was behind it.. Whole situation is just sad.
  17. Online lohki gallan karan joge ah. Jehra banda eho jeha kam karda oh nahi chounda bhi saara Sikh panth bina mathlab ton avain chakki challo. Je kisse ne badla lehna oh chup karke kam kardinda, par gallan karan wale online beht ke bina matlab ton aavde opinions likhde ah. Like Jassa Singh said it's quite possible that it doesn't add up and thus the complete story wasn't even established plus with so many panth dokhis out there it seems odd. Since when did Sikhs start believing everything in the media without second guessing it? I saw this posted on a lot of Sikh social media accounts and people blindly saying changa hoya ect without even knowing what the full story is. Siyane eho jehiyan gallan vich chup rehnde jeh aap kujh karna ni pappu batty boy yes man kaun ah? jehra na punjabi na engreji jhajj nal bohl sagda yan jehra souch samaj ke kam te gall karda?
  18. They don't allow it, but they're nice about it.
