Its not only Devinder Singh Sodhi only, there are many more like, so called Baba Ranjit Singh Dhadrian Kalan, Harbans Singh Jagadhari, Joginder Singh Chandan and many more.
Basic problem is no one follows Gurbani, as Gurbani says
"Satgur binaa hor kachi hai bani, bani tan kachi satgur bajhon hor kachi bani.
Kehnde kache, sunde kache, kachi aakh vakhani..........."
"Satgur ki risey hor kach pich bolde, se kudiar kude jhad padiye......"
If the sangat doesn't goes to listen these Raagis or Babas, they will stop them selves. If you want, go and talk to him politely stating what Gurbani says. One person talks then another, then another, then they will realise it.

Good post. thanks.
If we were all to do Kirtan in accordance to Gurmat i.e. Gurmat Sangeet we wouldnt be in this predicament now would we?
You obviously have your own agenda, but I can kind of see where you are coming from.
But, not everyone is capable of learning gurmat sangeet.
Anyways, my biggest problem with these raagi doing kachi bani is because of the obvious profit margin they're after.. People here in Canada are very lost and don't have an understanding of bani. Thus, when they hear these "kavita" they open up their wallets and these raagi's know that.
Respected Bhai Saab,
Everyone has the capability of learning Gurmant Sangeet, because everyone has the capability to follow Gurmat. Next thing you will see people saying, oh its acceptable not to learn Gurbani because not everyone has the capability to learn it.
And yes Gurmat Sangeet is on the same spectrum as Gurbani because Gurmat Sangeet is an intergral part of Sikhi.
Regards,
Gurmat Sangeet
We've had this raag vs non-raag debate too many times on here so I hope this doesn't start up again.
Gurbani is gurbani...I don't see a problem with citing gurbani on a harmonium.
