Let's be careful, remember the whole furore about Moosewala being attacked using AN 94s which seems like uncorroborated stuff planted in the media. -

Women love a 'mysterious man' - could be this? Also, some women are famous for getting bored with blokes quickly, so keeping a part of yourself back could be advantageous.

To me, it looks like we are only now increasingly realising how prevalent mental conditions such as sociopathy and NPD can be in societies. This can actually possibly help us understand some of the familial conflicts we see amongst apnay.

Does this mean that Sikhi doesn't acknowledge the potential for some in-laws to be malevolent? Or parents being neglectful of their children?
-
You're not wrong at all here. I was pretty much told this by an expert. He said "They are very devious and adept at worming themselves into positions which aid their predilections." Also. judging by both savile, scofield and umpteen pakistani groomers, it's not just 'their own' that protect them. We have a very strange thing going on in certain societies.

Forget ghosts. What do people make of all the recent furore about about the US having captured 'alien crafts' and aliens themselves? Is it bull5hit? An attempt to detract the population in the face of domestic and international problems?

Singhs taking opium in Gur sobha granth
dallysingh101 replied to shastarSingh's topic in POLITICS | LIFESTYLE
In the past I've made a tea from the ingredients of sukha nidhaan i.e. boiling a few small green lachis, saunf, cinnamon stick, javentry, black pepper, cloves and a few sukha leaves for 20 minutes. You are right in that it doesn't buzz you all over the shop. I found it really good as an anti-stress, anti-inflammatory, relaxant. Also, seems really good for nerve pain. Do you know how long the nihangs raggarh it? And what prayers they might recite when they do it? PS- I also found pasted poppy seeds (in a mortar and pestle) boiled with milk and with some black pepper and keeo to be a very subtle but potent relaxant. PS - some of those ingredients actually inhibit some of the intoxicating effects of sukha (i.e. cloves and black pepper), so it's more thought out than some might imagine. -

Lucky you! That makes good sense. I thought that it might hamper physical coordination in battle, but in small doses it probably wouldn't. -

I think it's important for Panjabis on both side of the border to ponder this. I'm pretty sure in the event of all out conflict, this will be some of the stuff that will possibly be done in the region.- 205 replies

I remember those old days. I think what happened is that in the face of a tidal wave of historical accounts of things like jhatka and the use of sukha, including from internal Sikh sources, the old conservative stances simply couldn't be maintained anymore? The emergence of khojis who would study and sometimes even translate puratan texts instead of blindly following what was told by conservative, uninformed elders actually helped make our community a bit more open minded. I think a more grown up, contextualised understanding of CP in Dasam Granth also played a part. We could maybe see it as the slow fragmentation of hegemony of the colonial era Singh Sabha type thinking?

I get Ranjeet's and Ipledgeblue's point, and take it on board. I'd still see for myself though. That being said, that Kau89r8 sister still urgently needs to find something that healthily resonates with her on the Sikhi front, and find alternative perspectives from skewed social media sources. Some people seem more susceptible to being indoctrinated by social media than others, and that's dangerous in this day and age.

@redoptics2013 Can she cook bro!!!

It's more than a little ironic that you talk about bahmuns, who many characterise as being caste obsessed but can't see the same thing blatantly talking place amongst our own.........you make me laugh lady.
-
Basically, the 'culture' Moosewala exemplified is pushing a lot of our own samaaj into the polar opposite of this direction, and I don't think it's doing anything remotely positive for Sikhs.
-
Thing is, it never used to be like this. In terms of Panjabi 'culture' it's not exactly inspiring is it. To me it reflects a serious lack of imagination and talent. And what does it say about Panjab, the birthplace of Sikhi, in that it mass produces this type of low brow crap as it's main contribution to arts, and that hordes of apnay lap it up.
