So I take it that the camp organisers will be oblivious to the fact that they were the ones who protested against Guru Sahibs saroop going into a school hall which had no previous parties, alcohol and meat etc...., but said it was not pavitar enough and there was not enough suchamm for mahraj, and here they are going ahead with a camp that is to be carried out in a site which is alot worse than a school!! Oh well, i guess its ok, cos they are the majority and have the say for the panth!

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru JI Ki Fateh! With Kirpa from Maharaj I have had the opportunity to come in to contact with some beautiful people. They have dedicated their time to help our next generation. Street Child Africa is a registered charity that support, protect and give hope to street children across Africa. However, like any charity they need help. Whilst trying to organise something to help these children many people have asked me 'why them?'. In other words why not help our Sikh brothers and sisters. Forgive me if I am wrong, but my understanding of Maharaj's teachings are that Waheguru abides in all hearts. That we are all a family. Does it matter that they are not Sikh? Does it mean that they do not have the Love of Waheguru? Together, we can make a difference. This is where your support is needed, your time is valued just as much as your donation. The details of the Kirtan are attached. Please consider all those children out there on the streets, their cries deserve to be heard. Show these children that we are listening and we do care. Please come and join in the kirtan and show your support. See attached poster for further info If anyone would like to do kirtan sewa please contact the number on the poster. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh As my veer ji said they serve spiritual purposes, and practical ones, even when singhs hands and limbs were decapitated they used to continue to fight, even if it meant using their heads!! so they had shasters tied to dummalas and chakars etc... they also served as protection. One other reason is, to adorn our crowns (dastar) with our gurus jewels (shasters) just as kings and queens decorate their crowns with jewels. shasters are our jewels. bhul chuk khima

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KE FAETH DEAR SANGAT JI, THER WILL BE AN AKHAND PAATH TAKING PLACING TOMMOROW AT 9AM AT SIRI GURU SINGH SABHA SOUTHALL, PARK AVENUE IN REMEBERANCE OF OUR YOUNG GURSIKH BROTHERS THAT PASSED AWAY LAST WEEK. BENTI TO ALL SANGAT TO PLEASE COME ALONG WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY. THE BHOG WILL TAKE PLACE SUNDAY 9AM. WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KE FATEH

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh ji!! Its sooo sad to see what the youth of today has become.....to se the direction in which we all focus our energy. Instead of spreading the warmth and piyaar of Guru Nanak Dev ji, we find it soo much more important and interesting to spread false hatred and accuse one another of anti-gurmat practices. Some of the sangat will know what i am talking about specifically in this post. I will refrain from name calling as this will only generate more heat But something that has really hit me the last few weeks is that, instead of helping one another as brothers and sisters of Guru gobind Singh ji, we put each other down more. Highlighting the faults, and not the good attributes a person possesses. How dare we call ourselves sons and daughters of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, and not allow certain people from entering the gurdwara and having the darshan of mahraj?????? No matter how bad one is, they will only gain from having darshan of mahraj and the sangat. One benti, please look deeply inside yourselves first before even thinking bad about another. May mahraj guide us all in this sad time and bless moorakhs like myself with samrath and the will to always defend sach (truth). only problem is truth as has been demonstrated throughout time and our history always comes at a high price. Are we really ready to fight for that truth? I am trueld sadened to see all of this hatred........... Mandip Singh (London)

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh Dear Guru Piyari, Guru roop, satsangat I know there have probably been alot of posts already to do with this issue. BUT....... its just something that has become more apparent to me lately and has really bee bugging me. I just want the sangats point of view. First of all im just gona as some thought provoking questions, well, not really thought provoking, but just to make a point. Who does Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj belong to? As in, Is maharaj only the guru of sikhs? Or Taksalis, or Akj's, Nihungs etc..... Does Maharaj discriminate with caste, creed, sex, jathay? I think we all know the answers to these questions, so then WHYY piyareooo do WE go agaisnt our Gurus and everything they stood for when we discriminate, when we say your amrit is no good because it wasnt delivered in a certain way, when we say your maryada is not good, because of X and Y. Why do we have soo much hatred for each other? We see each other and instantly judge, saying oh hes an akj etc... I thought the whole purpose of the khalsa was to be ONE, I thought we are all sons and daughters of Guru Gobind Singh ji??? AM I WORNG?? I thought the khalsa was the fauj, the army of god, and hence we are supposed to be there for all and help all and spread piyaar (love). But we cant even help ourselves let alone others!! It sooo sad, sooo disheartening, and just wrong! And then we complain and say that people dont know who we are, or are mixed up in what sikhs are about. Its because we dont know who we are! Just look at all our Gurus, look at what Guru granth Sahib Ji mahraj teaches us, the fundemental teaching is that of LOVE, our gurus loved all, not matter how bad they were, how sinful they were, they loved all equally, and it was this love that made the sinners of sinners into angels, into gurmukhs. I understand that there are people/groups who do wrong, but is just shutting them out, or doing their bestee, or telling others how bad they are going to solve the problem??? NOO, it will push them soo far away... We should be there for those in need. For those that have no others It is kaljug, and this is why!! We say that goray are racist, but i think they are sooo accepting, fine u get the odd ones here and there, but just look, we are living in england, and we live with piyaar and acceptance with them, they understand and accept our beliefs, but we cant accept our own brothers and sisters Im sorry if im going off on one but we really need to just STOP and think and review ourselves, and look at how much hatred we have inside of us. If we are to be the KHALSA, who are the JAAN (life) of GURU, just imagine that, Guru ji said we are his JAAN, WOW then we must start to think like khalsa (pure), our thoughts must be pure, and open. Even a smile can make a big change, so when u see ur brothers and sisters, smile, say fateh with piyaar say it as if u were saying it to guru ji, cos in affect you are. Please sangat we really need to change, I really need to change.........the future of the panth is is OUR hands Im sorry if i have offened anyone, I know i have probably said countless wrong things, please think of me as your younger, lost, manmukh brother and forgive me for my mistakes. I need your help in improving myself so i dont make these mistakes again. Im just saddened by all this dukh and hatered May mahraj guide us and bless ALL Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh Mandip Singh

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh ji!! Happry Birthday KHALSA ji May Guru ji bless you and keep you close as he is....... 'The spiritual energy of the path uses justice and patience to prepare your spirit. This is the path of the knight: a path that is at once easy and difficult, because it forces one to set aside trivial things and chance friendship. That is why, at first, many hesitate to follow it. This is the first teaching of the knights: you will erase everything you had written in the book of your life up until now: restlessness, uncertainty, lies. And in the place of all this you will write the word courage. By beginning the journey with that word and continuing with faith in God, you will arrive wherever you need to arrive' (Manual of the warrior of light, Paulo Coelho) Stay Chardi kala ji.

mnmuK jnmu gieAw hY ibrQw AMiq gieAw pCuqwvixAw ]6] manamukh janam gaeiaa hai birathhaa a(n)th gaeiaa pashhuthaavaniaa ||6|| The lives of the self-willed manmukhs are useless; in the end, they die, regretting and repenting. ||6|| Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh Dear Guru roop sangat ji, (My second post, lol) Another happening I want to share with you guys. This one is something that I realised today, and the above Tuk of bani from Guru Amar Das Ji, really says it all. Every tuesday I am at a GP Surgery for teaching and seeing patients (Im studying Medicine). Today I saw this guy (gora) in his fourties, and he was an alcoholic. I did the usual, took history and examined him etc.... He drinks over 2 and a half bottles of whisky a day (That is alot). The rate he is going he will prob be dead soon. It was soo sad to see this, as i spoke to him i felt alot of bairaag, i felt his pain also, he spoke of his problems, of his worries, and that without the drink he would die. I really understood what he was talking about, he was talking from his heart, he was slightly drunk, but said to me he behaved today becasue he was comming to see me so he only had 4 cans of beer in the morning! this guy is soo addicted that he NEEDS the alcohol to survive, he has neglected his family etc... (i wont go into details), and the only person he cared about was himself, or the fact that he needed alcohol. I thought to myself, 'waheguru' this is the piyaar, the longing that a person should have for GOD, not sharab. Its sad to see how the panj chor (5 thieves) an totally take over a person. This guy was really nice to talk to etc..., and he was well aware of the problems he had and the xonsequences of them to his health and to others around him, but he looked me in the eyes and said, honestly, that he could mever stop until the day he dies. This really hit the spot, I was just speechless, i even tried talking to him in an unpofessional way, like a friend, just saying things like what are you doing, think of your wife, your kids etc... But to no response...... its amazing, we can do nothing, all is in his hukam. Its sad to see though, just think sangat ji this is the scenario with alot of punjabi people, esp sikhs, lets try helping them, talking to them etc.... ALSO just appreciate what we have, even the air we get to breathe, the food, the two legs, we have etc.... WAHEGURU WAHEGURU WAHEGURU WAHEGURU WAHEGURU WAHEGURU The very fact that we even get a chance to think about GOD, and have darshan of guru ji is next level, its sooooooooooooo amazing. There are poeple in this world who are just lost, truely lost. May Guru ji bless the world, its such a sad place, kaljug is in full force, thats why 'we' the Khalsa, Guru Gobind Singh Jis Army must be tyaar par tyaar, ever ready to GIVE Waheguru ji!!!!!! Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh Mandip Singh

Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ke fateh ji Thank you soo much Gursangat ji for your kind words and soo much piyaar Means alot Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ke fateh

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh Oh BTW sangat ji, your gona laught, I made the most LOL, All gurus kirpa I made £285.79 in total we raised £1498.50 in 4 hours Chardi Kala Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ke fateh

Waheguru ji ka khalsa Waheguru ji ke fateh !! Dear Guru roop sangat ji, this is my first post EVER! Im not a writer or a good expressor of myself and thoughts through writing, so please forgive me. Events that happened to me yesterday, really made me sit down and think alot about the world. About the reality, about the falsehood, about truth, and about love (piyaar). I am in know way a gursikh, nor do i claim to be chardi kala, but i would love to be walking the path of Guru gobind Singh ji maharaj as best as i can, and with his kirpa I shall try. So here are the events and my thoughts and feelings on them: I am a student living away from home, in a town which has NO Sikhs, NO Guru Ghars, Hardly any Asians. infact I am the only Amritdhari Singh in the whole University. So as you can imagine being away from sangat and from guru ji is hard, but then again its also the way guru ji intended it to be. Yesterday, myself and a few friends (mostly muslims- the few asians here!) were out in the town centre collecting money for the earthquake appeal (I was asked by some people on my course, so i agreed to help them do some sewa). I was walking around the town centre with a collection box asking people whether they could spare some change and would like to donate any money for the earthquake appeal. Obviously I was recieving alot of looks etc... etc.... because the goray have never seen singhs here before, but that was fine, I appreciate maharaj's saroop even more when this happens and just think, waheguru! Guru ji has blessed me soo much! Things were going pretty well and i was getting quite alot of people donating money. Then....lol, this skin head gora came riding towards me on a skate board, he was with alot of other goray too who were standing about 30ft away from where i was and i herd him say 'watch this', so anyway i could see him comming closer from the corner of my eye, so when he got pretty close i moved ot of the way. I was at the bottom of a slope so he was comming down hill. So he 'missed' me and then walked back up and said 'ill try again', by this time i could see he was pretty drunk/stoned, so he came again, and this time i was actually taking with an old lady, so again i moved both of us away. this time he came upto me and said 'hold still i want to run you over', So i said to him, why do you want to do that? he ignored me and went up the hill and again came towards me trying to crash into me with his skate board. So this time i was pretty annoyed and said to him to stop doing what he was trying to do (i didnt say it that nicely!) so he kinda backed away. So... i continued with what i was doing.........apart from the odd comments like 'go home etc......the next encounter was a hour later with an old guy, probablly in his 60s, i asked him if he would like to donate to which he replied 'what? so you can blow up another train in London' WOh!!! i was pretty shocked, and just at that moment a kala (black guy) came frombehind me and started to swear at the goray, calling him names etc... and then he put money in my box. I was just ------Waheguru, some random guy came and stood up for me! At this point I was pretty down and just stood to the side with the collection box, and straight after a guy with his wife and son, just went MAD, went crazy and just started swearing at me really load from afar as he walked past with his family, he had so much hatred and anger it was quite sad to see. I started doing simran..........lol it gets better, and another goray walks past sticking two fingers up at me, but this time i was into my simran so just smiled back. ok enough with the negatives, I must say there were also alot of chardi kala people too, alot of loving and caring people who gave money, i had ladies come upto me without me even going and asking them and putting notes into the box, and they were trying to do it gupt so i didnt see they put in notes. So these made up for the 'bad' encounters i had. But this experience really made me think, keh only if they knew that Guru Gobind Singh jis Khalsa is the fauj of God, the army of god, and that we would gladly, happily give up our lives to protect their honour, no matter which religion, colour etc.... we would be there to uphold truth. Its just quite sad to see the lack of knowledge that people have and the hatred they have, although i do realise they have reasons to be like that, and it is kaljug. WE sangat ji really need to educate people and let them know WHO we are and WHAT we are and what we believe in. All we have to do is be our selves, the warm, loving, caring, chardi kala people that our guru made us. We sholuld flood all those we meet, see with so much piyaar that all the can say or give us is piyaar (love) in return too. And I did experience alot of piyaar too. I am soo grateful to maharaj for these happenings cos i needed to be slapped and brought back into reality. Im sorry for going on and on, this is not even an important issue, just my silly feeligs as they come into my head Just needed to vent them out. Please forgve this moorakh for any mistakes ji May guru ji bless ALL, Sarbat Da bhala I really understand that now! Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ke fateh mandip Singh
