Urgent notice for Birmingham sangat:

For the past 2 months myself, the Stage Secretary, SYCC, sikh youth, sangat from many Gurughar all over Birmingham and Sikh Fed (Birmngham) have been repeatedly encouraging the Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethwick President Malkit Johal to book several coaches for the Birmingham sangat- after persistent requests he has barely booked 1 coach. Please ring in to 0121 5582527 and let him know that the 1 coach will not be enough (lets not forget even the 4 coaches booked for the June event were not enough) and why is he causing the local sangat so much trouble

If the President continues to be stubborn then we have decided that as well as the Gurdwara's 1 coach we will bring 2 or 3 coaches ourselves and pay the costs of this (£450 per coach) so that EVERYONE that wishes to go CAN definetly attend the event

WE WANT EVERYONE POSSIBLE FROM BIRMINGHAM AREA TO GO SO PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ATTEND AT 9.30AM

Thats the spirit - if everyone on the coach who can afford it chips in a few quids that should help cover some costs.

Lets show these useless committee members that they will not dampen our spirits and that we will continue in Chardi Kala.

Be there and be a Square :-)

Excellent T-shirt design ppl - you'll love it. Please note that to help with the costs of organising this event that T-shirts will be for a 5 pound donation - sorry as much as we'd like to we can't afford to give them away.

See you all tmmr.

Also look out for the buckets marked 'Campaign 84 Fund - Sikhs in the Square' in the Square.

This could be start of something big and different . . . .

Thanks for showing the keyboard and tape in the photos to judge the size of the buckets.

Hopefully, they'll be big enough for the many donations that will be made to pay for the many activities taking place in the Square.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa!! Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!!

Guru Roop, Guru Piari Khalsa Sadh Sangat Jio..

We have just got news in that Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethwick President Managing Committee Malkit Johal has refused to book more coaches.

He said you should have told us earlier, how much more time do they need they were told 2 months in advance, but Khalsa Ji i think Sikh Federation (UK) Birmingham Branch have organised 2 more coaches to go, which will be confirmed in ASAP.

Khalsa Ji the President of Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethwick Malkit Johal has been requested again and again and again to do more coaches and now he turns around and says "Should have told us in advance" what action should we take on this?

How much do you have to beg the "Mukh Sevadaar" for something for the PANTH & that he has taken oath on when taking Seva of the Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethiwick Managing Committee "I will put my Thaan Maann And Dhaan into seva for establishing Khalistan" this President dont even Parkash his Beard!!!!!! EVER!!

yet we at Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethiwick can spend £5000 giving to Sri Guru Singh Sabha Southall, And waste soooo much £100,000's in court cases on who's going to be President, 30 air freshners at £50 each which only cost about £10 each....but

Some corrupt MP (who has done nothing for the Panth)... gets £5,000

a Shaheeds mother, Shaheed Bhai Harjinder Singh Ji Jinda's Mata Ji only £101

Despite months of polite requests and having provided lists of sangat wishing to go i can confirm from the committee meeting President Malkit Johal has flatly refused to provide more than one 50-seater coach for the hundreds of sangat that have booked seats and others that will attend on the day...

Sikh Federation (Birmingham) have kindly stepped in to provide three extra 50-seater coaches for the Birmiongham Sangat as well as the 17-seater minibus from Tividale Gurdwara. They also provided well as over a thousand candles for the Candlelit vigil so i'd like to take the opportunity to thank them :TH:

Just to confirm we now have 4 coaches and a large minibus for tommorow so...

EVERYBODY WITH A CONSCIENCE IN BIRMINGHAM BE AT HIGH ST. SMETHWICK AT 9.30AM

:lol:

      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!!

      Is suraj parkash right? is it a reliable source of info?

      By BhForce · Posted

      Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
