  2. Not obsession but it has bin an issue since the 80's of sikh girls being sexually attacked by muslims In the forum if you read the comments many muslims are taking up combat training at a young age an there are three times as many muslims in uk More sikhs need to put there kids in combat training
  3. If so many muslims are boxing an mma at young age Then is that not bad news for sikh youth especially girls who will be targeted by muslim boys
  4. In a democracy it is up to the people the pressure from the bottom to change politics People have to mobolize in punjab pick three issues come together an march an demand politicians from each party to meet there demands.rather then accept empty promises
  5. If muslims are putting there children into boxing mma an muay thai in heavy numbers what does that mean for sikh children who target sikh girls Sikh gurdwaras need to partner with kash gill an other boxing muay thai an mma gyms an find ways to encourage sikhs to put there children into these gyms
  6. Muslim punjabis ancestors were coward hindus who were coverted to islam by sword Punjabi hindus ancestors didnt convert Punjabi sikh ancestors laid a smack down on the turk mughals an pashtun afghans
  7. Many other countries have more corruption an poverty an yet do well in football An why does this corruption only effect football an not cricket were india is very competative Its a cultural problem If football was popular as cricket then yeah india would do awesome but again its cultural issues were popularity if cricket makes ppl forget other sports
  8. Not rss they tend to come from mixed sikh an hindu families Sainis are famous for marrying hindu sainis with sikh sainis in arranged marriages for two hundred years Look at how many sikh girls date muslims Props lot of sikh girls can learn from her
  9. The video is to show how to apply head movement an foot movement when facing punchesQuestion is why are shaster vidya students an teachers to scared to do the same Allow random people with boxing gloves to attack them with punches an see how well there head movement an foot work works in a real situation Problem is most martial arts schools wont test there theories there to scared to An there are simple safe way to test them Most martial arts schools teach choreography martial arts like this We dont get to see if these things work in a unpredictable situation With boxing muay thai an mma thy can test an ppl can see how there skills work in an unpredictable event when they have no idea what the other person is going to throw at them like this Ive emailed ppl at shaster vidya to put up videos of this art being tested like how this guy demonstrates head movement but there to scared to They choose to teach choreography martial arts like this Ive seen a dozen street fights an there are thousands up loaded as well on youtube liveleak hiphopstar an list goes on But you see very little traditional martial arts ever used but there are some things from each martial art that can be picked up applied but right now top combat system with out weapions is muay thai an mma which brings together boxing muay thai wrestling an ji jitsu an lil parts from other martial arts that can actually work Videos of boxing in street fights working Can you provide any evidence that martial arts like shaster vidya an other martial arts you suggest work better then mma boxing an muay thai when put to the test?? An most muay thai boxing an mma gyms also train in street self defence for situations were it is anything goes When it comes to street fights with no weapions you want to make your hands arms an legs weapons so you can break there legs with strikes to the legs or body or any part of the head or neck an avoid getting hit by your opponents Choreography martial arts like shaster vidya you know what the other person is going to throw at you in a safe situation they dont teach or show how to handle an unpredictable situation when you dont know what your opponent is going to throw at you while under stress In mma boxing muay thai you get to train in unpredictable situations under pressure Were u dont know how your opponent will attack you
  10. Well islamic culture is the worst but as sikhs it is every sikhs duty to stand up for equality Sikh is about fighting for people who are mistreated
  11. Street fighting israeli street fighting krav maga an russian street dighting martial arts are the best when it comes to weapions an boxing an muay thai tends to be the best for fist fights That shaster vidya stuff is a joke an is a Choreography martial art with just untested theories lot of those shaster vidya guys are pretty unfit compared to boxers Shaster vidya is a waste of time cause its unproven theories that havnt bin tested to see if they work in a real life situation That is why shaster vidya is lije most martial arts which are choreograohy martial arts In a sparring session or real fight with trained boxer or muay thai fighter a person with shaster vidya bacjground is going to get hurt Why shaster vidya is a joke is shown in this video an why it is just a choreography martial art is shown perfectly here Now muay thai boxing you get to see if it works or not in real life situations cause you can actually test it i would love see a video were shaster vidya students put there footwork an misalignment strategies.to a test by allowing random people to try hitting them like in this video an sadly chances are shaster vidya students will just set them selves to get knocked out

HOMETOP STORIESCANADIAN NEWSWORLD NEWSENTERTAINMENTSPORTSEVENTSBUSINESSCAR REVIEW Rattans RumbleAbout EditorSubscribeClassifiedsContact Us Saturday, December 19th, 2015 | Posted by Rattan Mall GARY THANDIS COLUMN: You deserve better What are we doing wrong in that we arent reaching South Asian families? BY GARY THANDI SO in the 15 years I have worked in the social services system, one thing I hear about as it relates to the South Asian community is they dont want to come out and get counselling. Often such a comment comes from social service workers who themselves belong to the South Asian community and thus unintentionally reinforce this belief. Of the South Asians that have come out for social services, many have been referred by other organizations such as the Ministry for Children and Families or BC Community Corrections (probation) who may impose sanctions on a client who fails to attend for a service such as counselling. Or perhaps South Asians struggling with addiction and mental health will end up in the hospital emergency room because things spiraled out of control for them. The unfortunate part of this process is that often a situation got pretty bad before it ever got to the attention of such authorities or services meaning opportunities were likely missed to help these South Asian men, women and children earlier. Its an observation that South Asians dont come out for counselling that many accept outright. Its probably one of the reasons why South Asians do not get the linguistic and culturally responsive services that come anywhere near what their population needs and merits based on its size. For example, 1/3 of Surreys population is South Asian, but social services that meet their cultural and linguistic needs come nowhere near that number perhaps thats why so many end up coming to the attention of the Ministry for Children and Families, BC Corrections or the hospital because opportunities for earlier intervention and support were simply not there. Its ultimately convenient not to focus on this population simply because they are not as vocal about the need, nor is there much concerted effort to determine that need and try to meet it. After all, mainstream services are plenty busy and understandably arent trying too hard to find more work to add to their loads. Something needs to change South Asian communities deserve better. For a start, we need to stop perpetuating what I consider is an inaccurate observation they dont come out and get counselling- and instead start saying What are we doing wrong in that we arent reaching South Asian families? Evidence suggests South Asians often seek out their doctor when struggling with an emotional health issue. Ive also spoken to many teachers who say South Asian immigrant parents often talk to them about their struggles too. So they are in fact talking about their struggles why then arent we doing outreach and providing services wherever possible at those locations? Many South Asians go to places of worship or visit the library again more places to provide outreach (for example, hosting a table with various information on subjects such as mental health or addiction). Many will first speak to friends or family. So why are we not training community champions who can learn more about various social issues and can help their loved ones who may be struggling? Im not saying some of these havent been done before however, in almost every instance the programs are temporary however such outreach needs to be consistent and long-term. Plus, we continue to have an outdated approach of Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. outpatient services that only a tiny fraction of any population (including the mainstream) that needs it is actually accessing. So we continue to operate in ways that has little value to South Asian families who are struggling with a social-emotional health issue, and we then blame these very same families for when their problems become so bad it becomes a medical or criminal justice matter. Again, I suppose thats easier blame the families for what they are doing wrong rather than to take a serious inventory of what the social services are doing wrong and make efforts to change it. Some may argue Why should we change for a specific population? Id argue that whats good for South Asians is good for everyone else! By that I mean the system really, as Ive alluded to earlier, isnt working great for anyone and that by making it more responsive to South Asians we ultimately make it more responsive to all populations. (I would also argue another point for those who say why change for a specific population- that South Asians pay their taxes just like everyone else, and therefore deserve a fair share of appropriate services like everyone else!) Of course its easier to maintain the status quo, and continue to blame South Asians for their unwillingness to get help, than to take on a massive and bureaucratic social service system and push for change. Ultimately its up to us if we want to keep playing into that stereotype or if we want something better. I think we deserve better.

  21. How can we use sikhi to help people who are broken heal Like how do we create a safe environment for them an how would it be done?
  22. Should the gurdwara play a role in addressing issues that every community faces like domestic violence and drugs substance abuse an sexual abuse? I was wondering since each community has people who come from broken homes then there must be sikhs who come from broken homes as well How can we help people who are scared to ask for help or struggle with english or need a support system?
