    This is only a small part of the problem.

    Fact is most Sikhs eat most of their food outwith the Guradwara.

    Obesity and other health problems are more related to a sedentary lifestyle which is now prevalent throughout the world. Increasing physical activity is key.

    Guradware get paid well for those wanting to do Langar seva, so not on their interest to 'tone down' any excess service. 

    Having more awareness like posters at entrance and around the Langar hall that Langar should  be basic might help.

    We need to encourage the practice of sitting down rather than tables and chairs which are common in the UK, unless one is physically disadvantaged

    Exactly. What you do outside the gurdwara is more important in terms of diet and exercise. Even if you live a sedentary lifestyle then you simply don't need to eat as much. 

    Having said that the Gurdwaras can also help matters, they should stop serving kheer or any sweet dish at Langar considering the fact that Prashad is already heavy and sweet. I've rarely seen a giani that didn't have a massive belly. 

  2. I was at the Gurdwara yesterday and it seems like we are feeding ourselves too much! 

    It looked like a who's who of diabetes and heart attacks waiting to happen.

    Punjab is the fattest state in India. It seems we just like putting everything in our mouths whether it is food, alcohol or drugs.

    Amritsar airport to Moga is definitely more than 2 hours. It takes a lot longer usually than what's written on Google. Delhi to Punjab can be quite good depending on the route the car takes, some routes have better roads and are quicker. You won't feel tired if you stop along the way as well. 

    Moga people and generally all southern districts all speak Punjabi, even the local Hindus. Only ones who won't might be Bihari labourers in cities. 

    People in southern Punjab districts wear more Kurta Pyjamas than other districts, especially if you wear a white one, you'll blend right in. 

     

    As a Keshdhari Sikh it would be better to go to Amritsar given the current political climate. The OP clearly takes his safely seriously and Amritsar would be the safer option, not to mention Delhi has lots of Haryanvi and UP goondas. 

  4. You're better off going to Amritsar, travelling from Delhi to Punjab is bloody long! You're looking at around 7 hours to Moga versus 2 from Amritsar. I recommend staying in Amritsar for a few nights when you land to see all the Gurdwaras and historical sites before you go to Moga. I stayed at a hotel called Hotel CJ International, you can actually see the Harmandir Sahib from the rooftop of the hotel. 

    A lot of people, namely Hindus, speak Hindi in major Punjabi cities like Amritsar, Jalandhar and Ludhiana so try to deal with Sikhs as much as possible. Very few people wear Kurta Pyjamas so stick to western clothes. My wife and I used auto rickshaws in Amritsar with no problems regarding safety. 

    You could find a hotel in Moga but if you're only there for one or two days then you might as well stay in Ludhiana.

    The song is still played all the time.

    Many Punjabis grew up thinking that this song perfectly summarized what it means to be Punjabi.

    The glorification of degenerate "Punjabi" culture continues to have an enormous negative impact today, and it is interesting to take a look back at a song that laid the foundation for that. In particular, I found it it interesting to note how much it was full of revisionist bs and blatantly anti-Sikh.

    There's far far worse songs around today. 

    It's like goreh today saying Elvis is scandalous because he shook his hips.

    Clueless "Uncle ji's" will be providing fundraising for "Nikki's" campaign.

    She'll gladly accept the funds while also believing or pretending to believe that Sikhs are going to hell because they don't believe in Jesus:

    I doubt she believes in Christianity, she is a plastic Christian. Someone like Bobby Jindall seems more authentic. 

    Most apne put so called punjabiyat and caste above religion it seems.

    By the way, speaking of her dastar-wearing father, how pathetic is he?

    Haley seems completely ignorant of Sikhi. These people could not take any time to teach their children basic things and instill a basic attachment to their dharam? Of course, I should not pose these questions as if such things are unusual --- I have seen so many examples of such failure in my extended family.

    I have cousins in Canada who grew up with grandparents who basically sat around doing path all day. All four are atheists who are married to or in relationships with non-Sikhs.

    Well he was OK with her entering beauty pageants and posing in swimsuits while she was a teenager so that tells you all about him. 

    Ideally we shouldn't be moving abroad in the first place but we love following the Christian goray around the world.

    Warning - don’t move to White or Muslim areas.

    We need a mixture in the area.

    The problem is that apne think they have made it in life if they move to a gora area. 

    Likewise suls love to flock to where apne are, no apna ever moves to a predominantly sul area in this day and age.

    No not outnumbered. 

    But lots of Hindus in Ludhiana so it could be 40-45% Hindus in some classes.

    Plus depends on the school. There are some schools like DAV, KVM etc where Hindu kids are easily in majority.

    Isn't Ludhiana 67% Hindu? They are more than double the Sikh population. Likewise in Jalandhar.

    When the money stops flowing from the land of Uncle Sam all these people will ditch their yeshu masih . The govt needs to intervene and stop reservation and other free stuff for people who change their religion and we will see how many of them stay in their religion.

    Not at all. By that time the fear of eternal hell fire for not believing in Jesus will have been deeply embedded in their minds and will be passed on to the following generations. See the p@k15 as examples. 

    There's a reason that Christianity and Islam are the biggest religions in the world.

    Sikhs tend to be one of the most educated groups in India, other educated groups in India like the Jains also have very low birth rates per women. The difference between the old generation and our Sikhs now is that their very thinking was different. (Women would marry around puberty time same for men), also monogamy wasn't exactly required from the old generation, so one man could have a few wives assuming enough men would die from infant mortality or in battle.

    When Muslims get educated they still pump out a minimum of 3 children per woman, I've seen this at work, the only exceptions seem to be Turks and Iranians. Look at the birth rates of Muslims in Kerela the state with the highest literacy rates. They will out breed the Hindus soon and become the majority.

    Whilst Rishi has made history as the first coloured UK PM, all I see is the Tories electing the brown guy to fix the economy (let’s face it Rishi is from a finance background and is the best person to fix the economy). Once he’s done that he will get kicked to the kerb.

    Why else did Boris drop out now? Get Rishi to fix the economy, Boris plays the long game and attempts a comeback in 2024.

    Or if he fails to fix the economy they'll blame it on an Indian. 

  13. He's more competent than Truss and Johnson but his skin colour and religion will mean that he'll never be accepted. 

    He can perform miracles in the next two years and the goreh will still vote for Starmer. Let them have the likes of Truss, Starmer and Johnson and see where it gets them. 

    But to be honest I think he will be forced to call a general election before then.
