  1. Why is this random guys private life making it on sikh news?

    Hardly a news worthy item nor does he have any influence on khalistani politics?

    Mr. Coolwater, this has everything to do with Khalistan. The people promoting these shady missionaries the most are these fake Khalistanis who control 95% of the Gurdwaras in the west.

    These missionaries reject Nitnem Banis, Amrit Sanchar Banis, and so many Panthic traditions, yet these so-called Khalistanis continue to promote them and allow them on their Gurdwara stages.

    Shivteg has committed a cardinal sin (bajjar kurehat) of having a physical relationship with another women - are these the types of preachers you want on your Gurdwaras' stages?

    How will we get Khalistan when we are not even ready to accept the Khalsa Rehat and follow the Khalsa code of conduct?

    The current Sikh leaderships is full of such adulterers and scoundrels - would you like them to be the next leaders of Khalistan?

    Khalistan is not a game. The Sikh Nation does not deserve Khalistan if it is not willing to clean house first and become real Khalsas.

    Shivteg Singh Vanishes While His Cohorts Attempt to Rebuild His Reputation

    IN-DEPTH COVERAGE ON ALLEGATIONS AGAINST SHIVTEG SINGH

    BRAMPTON, ONTARIO (KP) - On May 11, 2014, Panthic.org (Khalsa Press) published a news article regarding well-known ‘missionary’ kathavachak Shivteg Singh after he was discovered having an illicit affair with a married bibi Dhadhi group member during his visit at Ontario Khalsa Darbar, popularly known as Dixie Gurdwara.

    After this affair was exposed publicly, Shivteg Singh, who often performed katha at the historic Gurdwara Bangla Sahib, embarrassingly fled the Gurdwara Sahib complex and kept a low profile until he momentarily re-appeared for a day or so at the heretical ‘Sikh Lehar Center’ - often dubbed as the ‘Sikh Zehar Center’ due to its anti-Panthic activities.

    Interestingly, Shivteg has not given any public statement or clarification regarding the affair or the cancellation of his programs and his eventual dismissal from Ontario Khalsa Darbar in May.

    "Panthic.org stands behind this news article unequivocally 100%, as we have evidence that not only that Shivteg Singh was in an intimate physical relationship with Amandeep Kaur, but also that the Ontario Khalsa Darbar committee members knew about this relationship and tried to cover it up for legal or personal reasons."

    True Face of Anti-Dasam Bani Missionary Lobby

    BRAMPTON, CANADA (KP) - Sources close to the Ontario Khalsa Darbar (Dixie Gurdwara) have stated that Shivteg Singh, the controversial pseudo-missionary ‘katha-vachak’ from Gurdwara Bangla Sahib, was ejected from the Gurdwara premises after he was caught in a compromising position with another married women during his recent tour in Canada.

    Shivteg Singh, who is highly, regarded by anti-Dasam Bani heretics, as a great orator and ‘giani’ regularly delivered his sermons from Gurdwara Bangla Sahib, has often toured Canada on behest of the heretic missionary lobby that openly rejects the sacred Bani of Guru Gobind Singh Ji that is enshrined in Sri Dasam Granth.

    5545_Shivteg.jpg

    A spokesperson from Ontario Khalsa Darbar has admitted that Shivteg Singh was recently expelled from the Gurdwara Sahib due to ‘some wrong doings’, but has not divulged further information on the incident.

    Relatedly, the grand patron of the heretics, Gurbaksh Kala-Afghana, who was excommunicated from the Panth from his blasphemous writings, was also mired by various controversies related to adultery, attempted rape, and sexual abuse.

    Nevertheless, the pseudo-missionary lobby touts that such societal ills and characterless issued only existed in deras, and their preachers are somehow immune from such controversy.

    Shivteg Singh's controversy puts the pseudo-missionary in quite a quandary.

  4. The Masand incident is documented in Pracheen Panth Parkash as such:

    ਮਸੰਦਨ ਪਰ ਜਬ ਪਰ ਗਈ ਬਾਈ । ਗੁਰੂ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਤਿਨ ਦਯੋ ਫੁਕਾਈ ।
    ਤਿਹ ਪਰ ਦੀਨੋ ਡੇਹਰੋ ਚਿਨਵਾਇ । ਹੁਤੋ ਪਿੰਡ ਤਿਸ ਤਾਂ ਪਰਨਾਇ ।੧੪।
    ਦੋਹਰਾ : ਗੁਰ ਸੰਗਤ ਉਨ ਤੋੜ ਬਹੁ ਤਿਹ ਥਾਂ ਲਈ ਪਰਸਾਇ ।
    ਐਸੀ ਐਸੀ ਬਾਤ ਸੁਨ ਦਏ ਮਸੰਦ ਮਰਵਾਇ ।੧੫।
    ਚੌਪਈ : ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹੁਕਮ ਖਾਲਸੈ ਭਯੋ । ਮਸੰਦ ਭੇਟ ਚੰਡੀ ਕਰ ਦਯੋ ।
    ਕਈ ਸ਼ਸਤ੍ਰੀ ਕਈ ਨੀਹ ਚਣਾਇ । ਕਈ ਘਸੀਟ ਮਾਰੇ ਕਈ ਤੇਲ ਤਲਾਇ ।੧੬।
    When the masands were struck by such a perverted thought,
    They also got a copy of the sacred Guru Granth Sahib burnt.
    They also got their own place of worship constructed at a place,
    Where they had committed such a heinous deed. (14)
    Dohra : They disintegrated the Sikh congregations at many places,
    And merged these splintered groups into their own following.
    When the Guru came to hear about such a development,
    He ordered an immediate execution of the masands. (15)
    Chaupai : When the Singhs received such a decree from the Guru,
    They massacred and burnt alive all the masands.
    Some were slaughtered; some were buried alive in walls,
    Still others were dragged and roasted in cauldrons of boiling oil. (16)

    DHUNDA STARTS CALIFORNIA TOUR UNDER POLICE PROTECTION, HIDES BEHIND WOMEN

    PANTHIC.ORG | Published on January 1, 2013

    ਧੂੰਦਾ ਸਿੱਖ ਸੰਗਤਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਡਰਦਾ, ਬੀਬੀਆਂ ਪਿਛੇ ਲੁਕਿਆ,
    ਪ੍ਰਬੰਧਕਾਂ ਨੇ ਪੁਲੀਸ ਸੱਦ ਕੇ ਹਾਲ ਖਾਲੀ ਕਰਵਾਇਆ - ਸੰਗਤਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਭਾਰੀ ਰੋਸ!

    5484_BuenaPark.jpg
    Scene of Chaos During Dhunda's California Visit

    BUENA PARK, CA (KP) – The heretic missionary preacher Sarbjit Dhunda’s first program in Southern California initiated into chaos in the face of livid opposition from the Sikh community for his blasphemous remarks on Naam Simran and Sri Dasam Bani, and seeking safety, he eventually ended up hiding behind a cadre of women supporters.

    Sarbjit Dhunda, who had faced fiery opposition during his recent UK trip, was visibly shaken by the intensity of opposition that continues to follow him abroad.

    His initial program was scheduled at Buena Park Gurdwara in Southern California for New Year’s Eve. Local Gursikhs had met with the management committee earlier in the week, and had been promised that a free discussion between the Singhs and Sarbjit Dhunda would be held. But the craven Dhunda, out of fear, declined to meet with the Gursikhs for a discussion even after multiple attempts.



    During the New Year’s Eve program at Buena Park, many Gursikhs had already gathered at the Gurdwara Sahib and were collectively reciting Naam Simran, when the management committee demanded that they vacate the stage and leave the Gurdwara premises so the stage could be handed over to Dhunda. Since both the management and Dhunda reneged on thier promise, the Gursikhs refused to leave and continued on with the Simran recitation along with the Sangat.

    Gursikhs manhandled, Dastars Removed

    According to eyewitnesses, a handful of Dhunda supporters along with committee members then became very aggressive and started to manhandle the Gursikhs sitting on stage. This altercation eventually resulted in the forcible removal of the dastars of two Gursikhs and a committee member. Much to the embarrassment of his cronies, the "ਨਿਧੜਕ" Dhunda showed his cowardly colors at this time by strategically placing himself behind a cadre of female supporters who were more than eager to provide him this protection. Interestingly he has done exactly the same thing in Edmonton, Canada when he hid alongside female supporters during a similar ruckus in 2011.

    Police Called Enter Divan Hall with Shoes

    The management committee, who had earlier backtracked on their promise for a peaceful discussion between both parties, in a desperate attempt to silence the Sangat, summoned the Police authorities who entered the premises bare-headed and with their shoes on and forcibly removed the Gursikhs from the Gurdwara premises.

    The refusal of Dhunda to have a discussion with the Gursikhs, and the heavy handed tactics of the gurdwara management to silence and forcibly remove these dozens of Amritdhari Singhs from the Gurdwara premises illustrates the level of desperation of Dhunda and supporters who want utilize Gurdwara platforms for their blasphemous mis-parchar but are not willing to face the concerns and queries of the Sangat who are questioning their malicious agenda.

    Key Gurdwaras Shun Heretic Preacher

    It seems as if Dhunda’s California tour is already off to a rough start, and could be possibly cut short as key Gurdwara Sahibs throughout the state have declined to host this heretic’s hate filled sermons which openly attack the concept of Naam Simran, the Nitnem Banis, and sacred Bani of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Ji. Gurdwara Sahibs have always been the core institution for Sangat and Gurmat parchar for our community, they should never be misused as a venue for heresy and mis-parchar.

  6. CHANDIGARH, PUNJAB - All India Sikhs Students Federation (AISSF) and “Sikhs for Justice” (SFJ) has unearthed the “Murder Fields” at Tughlakabad and Nangloi where dozens of Sikhs belonging to Armed Forces were butchered to death during November 1984. The high Ranking officers & junior Ranks those who fell victims to the mayhem unleashed against serving Sikh defence personnel at Tughlakabad and Nangloi Railways Stations is a National Shame say the organizations.


    AISSF, SFJ And All India Defence Brotherhood (Punjab) released the services particulars and other relevant details of the armed forces personnel killed in November 1984 at death traps laid at Tughlakabad and Nangloi. The documents obtained by AISSF reveals a single FIR Number 355 dated November 1, 1984 lodged under sections 147, 148, 201, 302, and 295 of the IPC lodged with Government Railway Police (GRP) Delhi. The Railway Protection Force (RPF) responsible for law and order at the Railway property not only failed to protect these Sikh Army Officers, but rather it is believed their weapons were instead used to kill the Sikh victims at Tughlakabad and Nangloi Railway Stations.


    Watch Full Press Conference Here:




    Pointing to the criminal silence by the Armed Forces for the past 28 years over the murder of its high ranking officers, AISSF President & Brigadier Kahlon have demanded the Ministry of Defence take immediate action in the prosecution of the culprits an leaders which masterminded the planned slaughter of Sikh army men during November 1984.


    Brigadier Kahlon while speaking at a Press Conference stated that the Defence community in particular and the country as a whole would like to know from the Chiefs of Army Navy and Air Force what action was taken in response to these killings and what will now be done as a result of the revelation of these brutal killings of its own members, with use of their own weaponry and men.


    Brigadier kahlon and other leaders have also demanded an immediate constitution of judicial commission so that the truth may come out and action be taken against the butchers involved in the killing as serving members of the the national army and armed forces.


    AISSF has demanded a debate in the Parliament to determine why the slaughters broad day light of the nations defenders were completely ignored and no action has ever been taken against the perpetrators. The ruthless murder of high ranking Sikh Army Officers at Tughlakabad and Nangloi in the presence of Railway Police during November 1984 also proves the connivance of police and entire administration of the country in genocidal attacks on Sikhs stated Peer Mohammad.


    Amongst those killed in the Massacres killed:


    Lt. Col. A.S. Anand (74 ArmouredRegiment),

    Major Sukhwinder Singh (150 Field Regiment),

    Captain IPS Bindra (63 Cavalry),

  7. chatanga veer,

    One bad apple doesnt make the barrel rotten.

    I agree with your above statement Khalsa Ji. Please keep in that Panch Khalsa Divan (Bhasaur) was not the entire Panch Khalsa Divan, Baba Attar Singh was also part of Panch Khalsa Divan so very many other good GurSikhs. It was the Bhasaur branch that took those anti-Panthic actions.

    I agree that the entire Udaasee samperdya was not corrupt, just those who were controlling the Gurdwaras (mahants) and some of the key leaders. If you read about the Nanakana Sahib Saka, you will find before the attack on the Singhs, there was a "Sanatan Sikhi" conference held by Mahant Narainoo which was highly attended by the Nirmalas, Udasees, and many Nihang factions, and this was all coordinated with the British authorities.

    I think most modern Udaasees and Nirmalas understand what happened during that time was wrong - so I agree it is unfair to paint them all with the same brush. That was no my intention.

  8. khalistan_zindabaad ji,

    Please let me know which references you are interested in and I shall do my best to provide or cite them. The intention of my post was not undermine any samperdya or group but just pointing out to my veer N30S1NGH Ji that it was not just the Panch Khalsa Divan (Bhasaur) that ended up heading the wrong way but the Nirmalas and Udaasees have done far worse things.

    I have nothing against Nirmalas and Udaasees, as individuals they have contributed immensely to the Panth - but as an organization not so much - as they do have different values and beliefs than the rest of the Panth.

    Swami Brahmdev Udasi (Gopal Singh) is a great example of this. He has vast knowledge of Gurbani, especially Sri Dasam Granth, and even though he still carries some sanatan philosophies, but we should look beyond that and appreciate his positive contributions.

  9. N30S1NGH Ji,

    There is no doubt that Panch Khalsa Divan (Bhasaur) did a lot of good parchar early on but went against the Guru Panth in their later days, but they were not the only ones. Many Nirmala and Udaasee groups are no less guilty of causing massive harm to Sikhi.

    Giani Sant Singh, although being a great Gurbani Kathakar, was directly responsible for introducing Hindu Aartee rituals inside Sri Darbar Sahib during Maharaj Ranjit Singh's days, and fully participated in Hindu marriage rites organized by the royal families - mainly due to the heavy influence of the Brahmins and Dogras. This is well documented in historical texts. Akali Phula Singh Ji did not agree with much of the maryada that went on, and philosophically clashed against the Gianis and the caretakers of that time.

    Things got even worse after the fall of the Raj. Amrit Sanchars were almost non-existent, Sikhs families started to follow Hindu rituals and worship HIndu deities. Thanks to the original Nirankaris and the original Kukas some initial traditions like vanished Anand (Karj) maryada, and not bowing to idols were restored.

    This was a sad time for our institutions also, many corrupt Udasee/Nirmala Gianis openly began to consume liquor and participate in fortification inside the Gurdwaras - idols of Hindu deities, pictures of Durga/Kali were installed at major historic Gurdwaras. Women were being kidnapped and raped at Sri Darbar Sahib's parikarma, TarnTaran Sahib, and Nankana Sahib - it was no longer safe for anyone to even visit these Gurdwaras.

    Thankfully the new organizations emerged during the Singh Sabha movement such as the Khalsa Diwans, Panch Khalsa Diwans, Gargajj Akali and others, who launched countless morchas and agitations and sacrificed immensely to free our Gurdwara from the evil mahants. Oddly, many Nirmalays, Udaasees, and Nihangs sided with the corrupt mahants and thus lost their veneration in the Panth. Naturally, newer organizations emerged to fill this void.

    Most modern samperdais/deras/dals are really a byproduct of Nirmalay-Singh Sabha associated Sants some of whom played a vital part in the Singh Sabha Lehar and or the Gurdwara Sudhar Lehar.

    Never the less, they still carried on many Nirmala oriented traditions such as giving Amrit in separate Battas or making Amrit with a Kirpan for women and for lower castes, etc. This and other practices such as banning Karah parshad to lower casters was also practiced at Sri Akal Takht Sahib until the Singh Sabha and the Khalsa Diwan groups brought an end to this practice.

    Oddly this discrimination during Amrit Sanchar continued in many samperdais and dera well into the 1970's. I believe Tarnal Dal discontinued it in the 1970's, and by the Mehta Taksal when Sant Jarnail Singh Ji's took over.

    Even though Sikhs claim be the religion of equality, hidden forms of discrimination still exists against women in many organizations and institutions of the Panth - even at Sri Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Sahib.

    No modern Sikh organization, except the Khalsa Panth itself, can claim lineage Guru Sahib or claim to be following the *ORIGINAL MARYADA*. Those who claim this are ignorant of their own history.

    Those who claim this should be asked where was their *PRINSTINE MARYADA* during Ranjit Singh's time and the dark period of 100 years afterwards?

    They will have no real answer.

  10. N30S1NGH Ji, you stated that issues like mool-mantar, ragmala, etc started just 100 years - as if everyone before thought alike. This is a fairy tale my brother.

    Can you provide any proof of the above statements? There is plenty of proof to the contrary - in fact many 19th century Udasees and Nirmalas considered moolmantar up to "Gurparsad" and also did not recite Ragmala.

    As for moolmantar, please see "Fareedkoti Tikka" which espouses the philosophy of Nirmala/Udaasee enfluenced samperdais and deras. The Fareedkoti Tikka clearly states that moolmantar is up to "Gurparsad", and there literally dozens and dozens original signatures by our Guru Sahibans with this version of the moolmantar. Are we going to blame our Gurus for shortening moolmantar now?

    For Ragmala, please study the views of Giani Chanda Singh (Bhai Mani Singh Taksal), Sadhu Govind Singh (Nirmala-Udasee Scholar), Mahan Kavi Santokh Singh (Nirmala Scholar), Giani Gian Singh (Nirmala Scholar), and Udasi Harnam Das (Akali Nihang Nurang Singh), Sant Baba Attar Singh Ji and Sant Teja Singh Ji of Mastuana as they all considered Ragmala extraneous and completed bhog on Mundavani.

    Regardless of their views, they still had mutual respect and never tainted each other as we do nowadays because we don't agree on the same "maryada".

    I have no intentions to debate these topics, but seriously, I think our nation is now mature enough that they deserve to know the facts that these issues were not created by the British, or the RSS, but have existed for centuries. The same is true about our daily minimum Nitnem, and the kakkars which were originally only referred simply as "tre-mudra."

    There have been Nirmalas, Udasees, and Nihangs that have recited moolmantar up to "Gurparsad" and there have been others who recited up to "Hosee Bhee Sach", and the same for Ragmala.

    I think its about time we stop dividing the Panth by promoting such myths. The Panth is NOT black and white, it has never been that way. Let's stop characterizing it as such.

    Sikh Vehicles Torched by Sirsa Cultists

    SIRSA, HARYANA (KP) - Followers of the Sacha Sauda Cult attacked unarmed Sikhs in Sirsa, and seriously injured a Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) representative and his associates and continued the rampage by torching several Sikh owned cars and motorcycles.

    A curfew was imposed by the authorities after the violent clash which seriously injured SGPC member Sant Gurmeet Singh Trilokiwala and others who were returning from a local Gurdwara after a meeting. Sant Trilokiwala was reported to be in critical condition and being treated at a local hospital.

    Tensions have been simmering in Sirsa since November 19th when Jasvir Singh and several other Sikhs were attacked and injured by the dera cultists at a nearby town of Jiwan Nagar. Local Sikhs had called for a protest march over the attacks but cancelled it after assurance from authorities that action would be taken against the cultists guilty of the attacks.

    PRE-PLANNED AMBUSH

    After cancelling the protest, the Sikh community members had peacefully assembled at a nearby Gurdwara Sahib on Saturday, and were returning to their homes when they were viciously attacked by a mob of Dera cultists numbering into the thousands.

    It is learned that the cultists had intentionally setup a ‘naam-charcha’ program in order to ambush the Sikhs returning from the Gurdwara Sahib. Dozens of Sikhs were injured in this second attack, and several vehicles and motorcycles belonging to the Sikhs were torched and destroyed by the rampaging cultists.

    Motorcycles belonging to Sikhs Torched by Cultists

    Upon hearing about the attack by the cultists, concerned Sikh community members from nearby areas attempted to assemble at site of the clash, but many were prevented from reaching the venue by the local authorities Fifteen paramilitary units have been called in by the district administration to control the situation, but mobs of “premi” cultists still remained on the streets ready for further confrontation with the Sikhs.

    Clashes between the Sikhs and the cultists are now a routine occurrence in Haryana and southern Punjab, and the vigilante security force of Sauda cultist Gurmeet Ram Rahim continuously harass and attack Sikhs who happen to be on route during the passing of the cult leader’s motorcade.

    In the past the local police authorities have turned a blind eye against such attacks, and have taken no action again the perpetrators or the dera head who is directly responsible for the cold blooded murders of several others Sikhs including Bhai Harmander Singh, Bhai Balkar Singh and Kanwaljit Singh Ji.
