Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ke Fateh!!!!!

Dear Sikh Sangat it has come to my attention there is a keertan program taking place Nov 5th (not too sure about the date) anyway it is taking place in the month of November at the University Of British Columbia (ubc) when we think of a keertan program in a major Uni such as ubc we think wow that’s really good gursikhs are organizing keertans in major uni that will be good to show others out there what Sikhi is about.... however gursikho there’s a major problem. The place where the keertan is taking place is not a good place this building is located in the ubc campus and where the keertan is taking place is on the 1st floor which is a party hall...and on the 2nd floor in the same building there is a pub...the organizers are amrit dari gursikhis...I personally think they should know better not to take guru sahib in such a place like that...even if they are cleaning the party hall the point is its still a party hall and onto of that there is a pub on the 2nd floor...we should ask ourselves is this a way to treat our guru ji....I think its a good thing they are doing a keertan but they should overlook the location if they cannot get a place then they should not hold the keertan there....in my opinion I think this keertan should be put to a stop...please forgive me for any mistakes

For get about it. It's BC, the land where the Manmukhs also known as the so-called "moderates" rule. If you do something about it, it’s very probable that the likes of Kim Bolan will connect this to the air-India bombing or something like that. And later on they might even give her the Tara Hayer journalist award for reporting it.

I totally agree. i just came back from bc 3 months ago and realised how far away from sikhi i had gone; in terms of abyass.

The problem in BC is that all of our people are in a competitive frame of mind - trying to outwin other ethnic minorities.

Just my few points :)

This is the reply of a person who is organizing this keertan "Due to all of the concerns, we are re-evaluating the decision on whether to do Parkash of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee" Sadh sangat ji what is there to evaluate this is not a type of place to have the parkash if guru ji these ppl claim this place is not a party hall but i have received information that in past there has been gathering or parties...it has also to my attention that maharajis parkash will be on the 2nd floor of the building on top there is a restaurant where meat is served. And in the basement in the same building there is a pub...however the people who are organizing this whole thing are now saying that they might not have a guru maharaj jis parkash there they might just have keertan there...they should think twice about that because there being its just as same so why even have a keertan in the 1st place its not going to prove you are bigger than anyone instead you guys will be doing more of something bad by going to such a place and doing keertan than you will be doing anything good.....forgive me for any mistakes this is information I have received through sources

    • 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.
    • 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…
    • 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
    • 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.
    • 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!!
