Waheguru ji ka khalsa

Waheguru ji ki fateh

Guru piarayo, I've been reading on some sites that sangatan here in toronto are thinking to hold a protest against the indian government for the actions presently in punjab.

This a great thought. The only thing is lets not just think of things lets get them going.

First of all Veer Hawara, is rotting in jail, being tortured, eventually killed. As I have wrote previously on this site, to this date we don't have any facts on how Veer Hawara actually escaped Brail jail. How can a person dig a tunnel and leave know traces of sand or rocks???

Simranjit Singh Mann has been charged with uttering KHALISTAN ZINDABAD!!!

This is a singh that left his high post as a officer after the events of 84 and has stood by his stand for a sikh state!!!

Veero, Payno, this is not a time to just sit and THINK. It's time to get moving and active.

I would suggest the 2nd week of july in front of the indian embassy in toronto.

I would also suggest to give a memorandum to the consulate general officer, on behave the sikh panth.

Another thing to do is actually write to Mp's and let them know, drive there attention to what is happening in punjab. If we don't let them know they won't care.

In final I hope that there is some more interest in this.

I will come for sure if there is a protest/rally. We Sikhs in Toronto (& rest of Canada) need to be more active when comes to stuff like this. Also, these kinds of stuff will help the Sikh community to be more unity.

Great News!

You have the full backing of the Sikh Federation (UK) for such positive actions.

Since Prime Minister Paul Martin is attending the G8 Conference in Scotland between the 6-8 July (Manmohan Singh has also been invited and will be in attendance on 7 July) - Why not target YOUR Canadian Govt with the help of some of the SIKH politicians in Toronto. This should be done straight away - Don't forget to mention the Dastaar issue in France (as the French President will also be at the G8 Conference).

In the UK we are likely to be holding a protest in London on Friday 8 July to coincide with Manmohan Singh's visit. It would be good if we could co-ordinate activities for the same day. One way we find works well to get people out, particularly youngsters is to get POSTCARDS printed - relatively cheap, easy to distribute and act as "personal" invites.

Also for your protest - banners, placards are essential - a PA system is also handy. A postcard for distribution to non-Sikhs on the day also works well - image and words on one side and text on the other.

Please give us a shout if we can be of further help.

Sikh Federation (UK)

Toronto sangat,

there has been a great deal of interest in this idea and momentum seems to be gathering. There have been many follow ups (with suggestions etc) on the original thread at

http://tapoban.org/phorum/read.php?f=1&i=41205&t=41205

Please take this opportunity to make yourselves heard.

I feel like flying over for it myself :-)

      Traveling in Punjab independently and safely (need good advice)

      By BhForce · Posted

      Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.

      Concept of Sin

      By MokhamSingh · Posted

      The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
