i wander how many are 'culture Sikhs' more Panjabis then practicing Sikhs ...
Muslims have that devotion regardless of how religious they are...Sikh are too broad of the spectrum from religious from Amritdhari, keeping Kes to no religious not knowing names of 10 Gurus and stepping to the Gurudwara
I'd say even non-practicing Sikhs would be better than less Sikhs from a purely political standpoint. They might not be ones who are fully connected with Naam Simran or being well connected with Guru Sahib/Vaheguru, but they can still raise awareness for Sikh issues.

these Punjabaans cause as hell aint sikh , do all sorts matha tek in any and all mandhirs , muslim shrines and christian churches , I believe it is the neeteja of being lax in teaching them tru sikhi from the get go. They with their hindu mates do stupid superstitious nonsense , even get toone to achieve God knows what and try to act like the filmi set , when they have jackshit to do with it.
My sister was bullied by her saas to wear sindoor , knowing full well her own husband didn't last despite her own wearing of it , but I guess that is the problem of having hindu companions all the time .
When you don't have an identity, you'll do what everyone else is doing. When you do have an identity, even if you are the only Sikh there, you still won't be absorbed with everyone else.

Conservative Punjabi Hindu....what more can you say exciting times ahead for Sikhs
Just imagine how Hindus will be rejoicing esp rw, and modi fans..
I expect more India-UK trade deals at the cost of 'Sikh terrorism.' Tackling Khalistanis etc...
The fact that an RSS Hindu can win in UK, while some far-right extremists have lost is surprising ngl. Weird world.

Political power of the elites in the case of European countries to a large degree.
However, as Europe becomes a post Christian society they are going back to their pagan past.
Japan resisted Christianity in 16th/17th century and had imposed two centuries worth of isolation before the Meiji restoration.
The muslim South East Asian countries like Malaysia and Indonesia still have Buddhist / Hindu undercurrents in their society.
When Constantine became Christian, Christians were a small fringe group that weren't solid in many beliefs, unless the Roman government intentionally became Christian to change that religion forever? (The orthodox countries who converted before Rome seem to practice a very different version of Christianity to anything in the west, like Ethiopia or Armenia).

These "gods" were royalty of a land / continent that was destroyed in a deluge. After what was a cataclysmic incident that destroyed that particular land,the survivors of this one sunken continent migrated to various places across the world, one of these groups being the tribe that set up home in the Indus Valley. The tales of the exploits of these beings were passed down through generations through oral storytelling. Eventually (I'm talking thousands of years), Valmiki and Vyas (of the Mahabharata) retrofitted these "ancestral memories" to the land of their birth, i.e. India / Bharat. So, these devte did exist, but they weren't Indians as much as Thor wasn't a Viking, etc. Where-ever the aforementioned survivors migrated to is where the local tribes drew upon this collective mythos from this now lost continent, and then imprinted their own customs, culture, and racial "makeup" (from their "new" home) onto those distant figures. Even something seemingly as unique as Japanese mythology has the same core personalities and events common to nearly all ancient peoples and cultures, because it all eventually stemmed from one central location. This also, I think, might explain where the various cyclical yugs (Sat, Dwapar, Treta, Kal) were actually in evidence. It's all in the Occult texts of the 18th and 19th centuries. There have been past-life regressions where those in the present who believe in this theory have described their various lives on this land that was swallowed by the sea. They describe what sounds suspiciously like the Pandavas and Kauravas royal clans and their vendetta with each other as well as the earlier events of the Ramayana. Others who've undergone even harsher regression routines begin to describe their previous lives on other worlds before their incarnations on Earth. All this was done under the guidance of Hindu rishis, etc. It's very interesting.
Something I always wonder is why the Western pagan kingdoms chose to stop being seen as "gods" by their subjects as chose to adopt Christianity and many African societies along with SouthEast Asian societies voluntarily converting to Islam where their status of godhhood becomes something of the distant past, while in societies like Japan and India, they still believe their main leaders are gods, (for Japan it's their monarch being descendant from a god, while in India people be doing murti pooja to Modi).

Do these people do this fasting stuff because its fun or because they actually believe fasting will increase their husband's life because I know a sikh lady who used to do this karwachauth stuff with such fervour and then her husband passed away at a very young age. I don't understand are these people celebrating for fun or actually believe in it. Tbh if starving yourself for the entire day is your idea of fun i dont know what to think.
Yes people actually believe in this. It's the same with the "Sikhs" who do murti pooja as well, they actually believe in seeking those devi devte for help. Why they believe in these things IDK really, but to question if it's genuine or not isn't really the right question to be asking.

Given the size of the average Punjabi this fasting might not be a bad idea!
Eh Fasting doesn't make you more fit, the way to solve that issue is going more towards Sikhi and have gatka and wrestling in gurdwaras.

I think this is a better alternative to Sikhs who end up cutting their beards in the pursuit to "look good"/"presentable" or even a better alternative for trying the beard, although it does require you to go the same salon where kes are murdered everyday. Your thoughts?
For a Singh or Kaur to be going into a Barber shop for this curling thing is a bit odd, if they want to do beard curling, they should do it themselves instead of going to a Barber where Hajjamat is performed every day.

how do they not though? Like a lot of "sikh" men think of it as a burden that adds hindrance to their lives. Just see how many posts are on reddit that I want to cut my hair. It makes no sense that someone who doesn't believe will go out of their way to wear a turban for the rest of the life. IDK man you would expect people like these to cut their hair. (if using an example of KP Gill or other so called"sikh" traitors who killed our people and continue to harm us then they worse turbans to blend in and to make it look like they were right since they themselves had uncut hair). I think the belief that people wear turban in Punjab culturally is not correct as many of such turbaned athiests have the saroop to blend in and fool Sikhs and harm us.
In Punjab it's not that much of a sacrifice to wear a turban tbh. A grown adult who's relatively secure in his identity isn't going to just cut his hair, even if he doesn't necessarily believe in Sikhi in Punjab just because they aren't the perfect Keshdhari or Amritdhari gursikh.

You could arrive with the intent of taking Amrit, but if you feel they aren't practicing proper Maryada, you could just leave. But if you already disbelieve in the Punj Pyare at the Amrit Sanchar, best not to show up

The Sikh berates the Hindu guy's "people" for bowing down to the British and enabling their subsequent colonising behaviour. It's all there in the video if you watch until the end. The Sikh guy has a point BUT a keen student of history could point out that Sikh collusion with British colonisers was a reality that unfortunately cannot be ignored.
But what's this guy at Taco Bell got to do with any of that?

Singh Tejinder, 37, was filmed repeatedly saying "dirty Hindu" and other derogatory comments about the Indian ethnicity and Hindu faith to Krishnan Jayaraman on Aug. 21.https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/california-man-charged-hate-crime-rant-taco-bell-indian-man-rcna45463
Jayaraman recorded the tirade that lasted over eight minutes on his phone, capturing the moment Tejinder told him: “You’re disgusting, dog. You look nasty. Don’t come out in public like this again.”
In the foul-mouthed rant, Tejinder called him a "dirty Hindu," repeatedly used the N-word, and insinuated Jayaraman didn’t eat meat and yelled “Beef!” in his face. He appeared to spit at Jayaraman twice in the footage.
At one point Tejinder was seen saying, "B----, this ain’t India! You f---ed India up, and now you’re f---ing America up.”
The Fremont Police Department confirmed the footage to NBC News.
Jayaraman said he was frightened by the incident, and was even more upset to later learn the perpetrator was also Indian.
“I was scared, to be honest with you. I was infuriated on the one hand, but I was scared that, ‘What if this guy becomes too belligerent and then comes after me?’” he said to NBC Bay Area.
Man is basically "Indian" to everyone else.

The world has had bigger countries broken into smaller countries.
The USSR is now 15 countries, Yugoslavia is now 6-7 countries. Czechoslavakia now 2 countries. Sudan, Eritrea, East Timor.
Pakistan and Bangladesh became 2 countries.
Scotland wants independence and there are numerous other independence movements.
All those smaller countries in Europe are part of NATO.
Unless the Dravidian states of India also split, India isn't likely going to give up just Punjab, (don't expect any other North Indian Hindu state to leave, as they've been influenced by "Hindu Hindi Hindustan").

That's the big issue though isn't it. We can see from Canada, that certain people have absolutely no qualms about knocking off their own (and that too in droves) but seem to baulk when it comes to doing the same to outsiders.
This is the truth, other communities tend to not be as self-aggressive as we are, which would just mean we have people who hate our own people more than any gora or kala.

You can't convince me that the avg new Punjabi that lands on western soil knows anything about Sikhi. I live in the city which gets maximum new Punjabi immigrants and I am so disheartened by seeing the truth. The Punjabis that came here before the 2000s are completely assimilated and prefer to rather be friends with goras than their own. Sorry but it is the truth.
There's some Amritdhari in Punjab who are RSS agents, we really can't just assume that because someone is Amritdhari that they'd know what Sikhi is all about.

They also discuss how the teachings of the Vedas and Adi Shankacharya have a direct correlation to Sikh teachings.
All discussions on the modern Sikh 'religion' are recent attempts to Abrahamise Sikhs to take them from their roots.
Objectively speaking on some levels there's some truth in what they said, our Sikh faith has been abrahmized in the last few centuries, the original goal of the British was to convert the Sikhs into Christianity but when they failed at that, they decided if they couldn't convert the Sikh, rather they would create a new influence within Sikhi. That said, what many Hindus don't realize about these old school Sikhs having Hindu-influence is that from the time when Prithi Chand rebelled against Guru Sahib until Singh Sabha Movement, the Haramandir Sahib hasn't had control of Sikhs and after Banda Singh Bahadur's reign ended, Sikhs lived in jungles and even more Gurdwaras had fallen under the Mahants. We can't completely base Sikhi on a purely historical context and we need Gurbani and Rehitnamas, (most important being Bhai Nand Lal's), to guide the Panth.

Sikhs are now the fastest growing major religious group in Canada.

Someone can be a friend sometimes and an enemy during other times, but it was the non-practicing Sikhs like Deep Sidhu and others who stood for the farmers protest, while some Amritdhari Sikhs like Badal did nothing.
