I have heard  the analogy of us being a drop of ocean separated and we are trying to get get back into the ocean, I also believed this.

Until I actually read Ang 878, where Guru Nanak Ji, actually is saying we are a drop of ocean within the ocean,  but we do not know we are in the ocean.

Nowadays, this would be misrepresented as some Sikh 'gang' problem by the police/media and government agencies.   

So they don't have a gym or hall to play 5 a side footy anymore at the Gudwara? Its where I met most of my friends

Don't apnay rock in crews anymore? If this would of happened back in the days , we just used to nack the guys back.

But there should be additional original birs right? Baba deep singh ji also composed many birs. Do we have atleast even one of the original from the guru's time or no? Isnt one of the original birs in the British museum as well? Having the original bir is the most important thing.

This is what I thought, the copies that are being made are of the original birs.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that that specific bir was lost at some point in the 18 maybe even 19th century

I'm not too sure myself to be honest, I will have a look into it.

Sikh Book Club's Response (Recieved via Email):

 

RE: Position of Sikh Book Club:  Letter to Jathedar Sri Akal Takht Sahib, Sri Amritsar 03-22-22

 

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Jathedar (Executive) Sri Akal Takht Sahib, Sri Amritsar

Singh Sahib Bhai Harpreet Singh

 

The time now is for unity of the Sikhs worldwide. We as Sikhs can not survive infighting. Our approach has to be a solution oriented approach. As a Jathedar of the important institution, you should be building consensus.

 

Several of your committees over years and other organizations have reported printing lapses and errors and nothing was done over it. Jathedar Vedanti Ji and Bhai Talwara Ji and other honorable Sevadars had worked on removing these lapses from The Guru Sahib.

 

You Sir are a great scholar of Islam. Muslims solved the problem of multiple versions of the Quran by calling all the experts and created a unanimous solution by dialogue.

 

Similarly you have access to the best of the Sikh thinkers, Missionary Colleges, and the work of Jathedar Vedanti Ji and Talwara Ji, to come up with the consensus solution. Please take charge and implement the changes, Changes are sometimes unpalatable but are important to keep the sanctity of the Guru’s Bani. Let it be a decision of Consensus of the Sikh Thinkers, to keep or Remove Ragmala or other critical decision you might have to take. 

 

Politics should not be a factor, our love for Guru’ Divine word, should be the deciding factor to take the righteous path. Individually we may be in different political parties or different sects, but love for our Guru is the same. Sir, Sikhs are a global force now, we see many successful young kids Running Major Corporations and Banks and even in White House. As a chief of SGPC you have to keep a Global vision, and each decision how it affects them. As a spokesman of Sikhs you are at the same level as the Dalai Lama and Pope Francis.

 

Sikh Misls did not get along well with each other, but in Gurmatta they were all one. With this unity they were able to lay the foundation of Sikh Empire. Sir you are at an important juncture where all are looking towards you for guidance, please do what Sikh Misls had done in Crisis. From that unity rose Sikh Empire. Sir, this unity will be a stepping stone for the Global Sikh Empire.

I actually read so much on Sikhi. If I would to put it in comparison in reading and learning of religions. It would be 99% Sikhi and 1 percent Islam. As a Sikh we are encouraged to learn and expand our gian . In fact learning about other religions helps you appreciate the beauty of Sikh even more. I encourage you to learn and gain more knowledge. 

Listen is great to learn but not at the expense of learning and understanding Guru Granth Sahib Ji. 

I have many posts about Sikhi, you do not tend to reply on them 

Have you ever put this much time and energy in Guru Granth Sahib Ji?

These people are really into Sikhi though. They post lots of photos of themselves at the Gurdwara, get khanda tattoos etc.

Posting pics of themselves at the Gudwara and getting tattoo,  does not mean they are into Sikhi this is all falsehood and stroking their ego.

Haw many of the original birs of guru granth sahib ji do we have and who has them?  Baba Deep Singh ji compiled around 11 birs of the guru granth sahib ji i think?

Yeah, we need a proper database, where Guru Granth Sahib Ji is. Compiling a database is not that hard, but getting the info might be difficult.

Is the globo-homo agenda trying to subvert things again?

No they are actually editing and making changes to Guru Granth Sahib Ji

Hold on, do we as Sikhs believe in a devil? I know there's jamdoots, kalyug etc., but no one has really mentioned a devil before. If so, how is devil defined?

Yeah I never heard of the devil in Sikhi before. But its all a spell you see, play on words.

If you put d infront of evil you get devil, and if you take away o from good you get God.

Well, yeah it's quite a conundrum with E Cigs I say we should not judge. Maybe E Cigs are 100% healthy? This post's quite old and as we grow, we age we become wise. I no longer look down on Amritdhari Sikhs committing Kureths, let alone smoke E Cigs. Not that I smoked but E cigs might be fine as long as it has no actual drugs in it. 

P.S. Old posts are popping up NOW (2022) under notifications. 

Problem im personally finding,  completely stopped smoking and drinking for around 8 months , problem with e cigs , you just keep puffing on them. So now I have to slowly drop the amount of times I smoke the thing. You can't win with this switch aroo,  you need to just stop.

I love this bani, for all looking for what Naam, Gurmukh, Shabad Guru is , its all explained.Add to daily reading and understand this bani.
