[TavPrasad Singh]

Is this some kind of joke?

Nanaksar Recreational Centre???

Did Baba Nand Singh ever take a break from Naam Simran and do something recreational???

Militant singh are you saying you follow maryada.

Try to answer the question honestly.

You're not perfect so, to be as polite as possible, shut up.

I know you wont but I wanted to let you know that you are one of thefew people that look at everything from a negative side, and I mean everything.

Maybe one day you will see the love the Nakasar Baba Ji's had for Guru Ji.

Your criticse everyone so much, I would like to know if you would have been one of the people to laugh at the story of Panja Sahib Gurdwara if you were not born a sikh.

[Nirvair S Khalsa]

Not sure about any other Gurdwara you may be reffering to, but Gurdwara Nanaksar Thaath Isher Darbaar in Wolverhampton does have a Nishaan Saahib outside and there is no idol worship that takes place there.

Vaheguroo Jee Kaa Khalsa, Vaheguroo Jee Kee Phateh!!!

Nanaksar Recreational Centre???

Did Baba Nand Singh ever take a break from Naam Simran and do something recreational???

Can anyone tell me what kind of recreation happens in this hall?? Is it a nanaksar attempt to enter the partying market??

[KharkooSingh]

These new trends of the "sikh" recreational centres makes me very uncomfortable, wouldn't it make sense to have the seminar in the Gurdwara Sahib? Why can't we stick to the Gurdwara Sahib as being the ultimate. Sikhi's not a recreational activity, it's a way life. Mahapurash's like Baba Nand Singh would not have promoted Sikhi as a recreation. Even Gatka/Shastar Vidya is a form of bhakti, it's not a recreational activity.

The biggest concern is that these recreational centres, eventually, start allowing "light" parties on the premises in order to fund the massive loan taken out to build the centre. We've seen it with Ramgharia Gurdwaras, Leeds, Leamington etc. Without sound too sceptical, I really hope Nanaksar don't fall into that trap.

Just my grumble of the day.

To clarify. Nanaksar Recreational Centre started in 1991.

So what goes on there?

THIS IS WHAT GOES ON THERE!!!:

* Regular Sikhi Classes for Kids (check nanaksar.org for some recent photos)

* Shin-Kin Martial arts (The Martial Art created by Sikhs and taught by Sikhs)

* Sikhi Related Presentations to various groups (As is the object of this thread)

* Sikhi Presentations to School Children (from various schools in the Midlands)

* Kirtan Classes (Taanti Saaj -string instrument - Classes every Friday - harmonium/tabla classes to be started in the next few months)

* Punjabi Classes every Saturday

There is a Nishan Sahib and there is no idol worship.

The building is next to gurdwara and as such is treated like a gurdwara building. No Drinking, No Smoking, No Partying! The above events take place here due to space restrictions in the main gurdwara building.

For people who doubt what goes on there.... why not come down and have a look for yourselves rather than starting rumours with your keyboard in your "own little world"

All the above is carried out by Sevadars so if you doubt what goes on ... PLEASE COME DOWN an actively partake in this sewa! We could always do with more sevadar..... Please email info@nanaksarthath.co.uk to get actively involved.

And hey... by the way there is also a presentation on the 300th Sampooranta Divas Of Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji tomorrow....
