    I would love for Sikh artists to create realistic paintings showing Guru Sahibs (those who fought on the battlefield) wearing full armour, etc. The previous century's artwork was good, but it didn't show the nitty gritty hardships of actual warfare. If you took those paintings at face value, you'd believe Sikhs would take to the battlefield wearing decorative cotton and silks, lol. Showing stuff like armour, etc, would ground our relatively recent history in a reality that would make it much more relatable to younger Sikhs who wanted to learn about our history.

    Regardless, that's great quality texture work. Looks real.

    Khalistan was a CIA psy-op. They planted the idea using Hollywood. ?

    I could probably respect the identity, even with all its faults, if it was rooted in a rough, warrior-like demeanour. But this is that innate Punjabi desire for nice, shiny things taken to a laughable extreme. There's something similar that happens in African pinds. They call them African Dandys.

    Your policy will swell numbers but you won't get vichaaar, gyaan, and understanding that way. Great news for politicians; not so much if you have a somewhat thoughtful outlook. You're falling into the trap of thinking poor = virtuous. You know what Punjabis are like when they get a sniff of the good times or a clear run at life; it goes to their heads regardless of their religious moorings.

    A terrible, virtually non-existent support system for normal religious folks (NOT weird jatha groupies) + the vast majority of the followers belonging to an ethnicity that seems to delight or relish any bad luck or hard times for their own = a very bleak future. From experience, the more you believe and try to understand, the more you will suffer. If you treat the entire thing like the Church of England thing of God only existing on a Sunday, lol, you'll be better off because you've discarded all demands and expectations. Sincerity breeds unrest; ambivalence begets contented ignorance. I'll repeat myself: Bhai Jagraj Singh's premature passing was a huge blow for Western Sikhs. He was EXACTLY what people were looking for.

    Good analysis. The problem for us is that even relative to our size, we have funds available that could be used to grow Sikhi IF it was spent by extremely clued-up, smart, long-sighted leadership. Instead it's squandered and spent on typical desi stuff. When the hub or decision-making base of the religion is located where it is, you will not get anything approaching visionary leadership that falls within all acceptable parameters of rehat, etc. The youth that should be coming forward to join the ranks in order to propel things forward want to flee to North America and become consoomers, and then bequeath this consoomer mentality to their low-IQ offspring.

    Hilarious but only half the picture. Someone should do one with the degradation of native Punjabi culture and life, where Western Sikhs are more attuned to their roots than the people born and raised in the land where it all started.

    His first name is Johal and his surname is Rathour? Someone decipher this nonsense for me. What is this druggie?

    @Kau89r8 don't you dare diss my jatt brothers! ??

    @Kau89r8 I told you; whenever you question them, they castigate you as non-Sikh.

    It's built into the foundations of the religion, no pun intended. It's kind of difficult to avoid without being dismissed as un-Sikh.

    It comes across as hollow and perfunctory; a cynical, halfhearted "chal lailo" afterthought of a gesture performed to placate Sikhs who are critical of his operation. Something that can be weaponised by his sycophants when they feel the need to defend Sai Ravi. Most people realise the CEO would much rather be photographed sidling up to a bunch of cute Ethiopian kids in a dusty village, or building figurative interfaith bridges with salwaar-kameez-and-topi wearing Musleh in some Islamic backwater somewhere. Those two groups get clicks, plaudits, and adulation in the West. Shifty-eyed, blue-turbanned men and dark-skinned Punjabi women in garish clothes being handed charity would seem like the CEO was attending a family get-together. Nobody cares about it. Khalsa Aid has no business helping Muslims anywhere. They 5hit out enough of each other across the world that it's monumentally absurd for a Sikh organisation to ever involve themselves in Islamic charity work. It's akin to a man neglecting to feed his own starving family and offspring because there's a bigger family across the street who everyone else considers to be the defacto charity case that needs patronising even though the latter could technically provide for themselves if they so desired.

    Do you know how to farm?

    Islamic social hegemony inches ever closer in the UK. This should send a shiver down the spine of anyone who doesn't want to wake up in a Muslim Western country. But when goreh themselves are bending over to this extent, I can't say they'll have much sympathy. Weak men, hard times, etc.
  25. MisterrSingh
    Same here. Never even a point of discussion. It's not as if we were a highly sophisticated or educated unit that had transcended our farming roots, lol, but it was always more about trying to adhere to Sikh morals and ethics where caste and other stuff was ignored. In some ways I wish there had been discussions of these issues when I was growing up, because when I went out into the big bad world by myself, it became patently clear most Sikhs of various backgrounds abide by caste prejudices regardless of where the commonly accepted caste power dynamics are acknowledged to originate. But this forum has educated / corrupted me wonderfully well. I think I'm up to speed on it all now. ?
