Gurfatehji,

Sikhi, was once the highest organised faith and now unfortunately the most politicised faith.

The only way we can begin to fix these problems is to IGNORE people who thrive on attention. Ignore them and send a message to them clearly.. that WE DUN CARE. If we are in a Gurudwara, it is because of the GURU and NOT because of these power hungry people. This will have effect if EVERY young sikh follows this regime.

also to attack these ppl who seek attention and question them in front of everyone what their real attentions are and expose them for who they really are.

i posted this as a reply in private to other ppl but personally i believe these are some solutions that might help a little bit and kind of get the community going in the right direction

Honeslty in punjab whats causing the problem when i was their, is this jatt mentaility oh im jatt i have this much money so i buy my kids cars, they dont' get educated their kids dont' get educated to start buisnesses get jobs and help industralise punjab and they cut up their land and hang themselves running into debt, their kids are spoiled and are given no responsibility which is the worste thing a parant can do to their kid cause humans need a sence of purpose, and instead these kids have no work ethic so no way they can reach any purpose they give themselves.

Basicully soccer or football if your from england, do you want to play on the national team and fight for it all the way to the world cup giving yourself a purpose to win it, or would you rather play on a dream team and win every game easy? so humans need to give themselves purpose and need to give themselves a work ethic to reach it but parants rob this of their kids in punjab.

In punjab ppl who practise caste are to dependent on their land and not educationg and if not education they need to get financial education, most familys in india in middle and upper class family's teach their kids financial literacy even if they don't finish school we need to learn financial literacy thats also why jews and gujaratis are rich.

Sports helps give ppl their own purpose and relise the adrenaline that their brain releases when they fight for their goals and dreams and reach them rather then replace that adrenaline in their brains with outside chemicals like cocain and heroin alchole.

Parants need to stop playing double standards this part of punjabi culture i hate, parants need to stop favouring boys over girls, they spoil their sons and give them no work ethic and they don't reach their potential and settle in life and become alcholics, daughters they neglect, and i learned in sociology human nature, that girls need that attention and that since of belonging and love and acceptance and trust from a male figure, if their brothers are to busy getting spioled and drunk and their fathers are favouring their sons over their daughters, *EDITED*

MOST IMPORTANTLY PARANTS NEED TO TEACH THEIR KIDS SIKHI AND SIKH HISTORY, I MEAN OUR HISTORY IS SO INSPIRATIONAL, IT SHOWS ORDINARY PPL CAN DO EXTRODINARY THINGS, PUNJABIS BECAME SIKHS, WE BEAT THE ODDS, SIKHS WOULD FACE ARMY'S 10 TIME THEIR SIZE AND WIN. ALSO TO TEACH THIER KIDS ABOUT THE INJUSTICES SIKHS HAVE FACED IN THE 80'S AND 90'S

SOCIOLOGY TAKE IT IF YOU CAN IN UNI I GOT A DEGREE IN IT AND I LOVE IT, I LOVE HUMAN NATURE AND IT MAKES ME UNDERSTAND PROBLEMS IN THE SIKH COMMUNITY, HUMANS ARE EMOTIONAL CREATURES THAT ARE DRIVEN BY A SENCE OF LOVE, RECOGNITION, SENCE OF BELONGING, PRIDE, VALUES NOW IF THE GURDWARA LEADERS AND SIKH LEADERS CAN GIVE THIS TO SIKH YOUTH HOW MANY PROBLEMS WOUDL GO AWAY.

SPORTS IM A HUGE SPORTS FAN, SPORTS TEACH KIDS GOAL SETTING DISIPLINE TIME MANAGEMENT, KEEPS THEM PHYSICALLY FIT TEACHES THEM TEAM WORK AND LEADERSHIP SKILLS.

I LOVE THIS QUOTE

good leaders make ppl believe in them, great leaders make ppl believe in themselves

Parants need to stop playing double standards this part of punjabi culture i hate, parants need to stop favouring boys over girls, they spoil their sons and give them no work ethic and they don't reach their potential and settle in life and become alcholics, daughters they neglect, and i learned in sociology human nature, that girls need that attention and that since of belonging and love and acceptance and trust from a male figure, if their brothers are to busy getting spioled and drunk and their fathers are favouring their sons over their daughters its no wonder we see more and more girls having less morals wearing mini skirts to clubs jumping from guy to guy cause their going to get that male attention that every girl needs from guys they find in clubs and at school that they can fool around with.

spoiling children

Also the greatest crime ppl commit is by making their kids dependent on them by giving them no responsibility, give a man a fish you feed him for a day teach a man to fish you feed him for life.

From what I have observed there appears to be an imbalance in the way people are growing mentally and physically.

The Human being generally has needs social, educational, recreational etc etc. if we look at the basis of Human needs we understand primarily survival needs come first food, shelter, then social needs such as family, friends then factors like education work, earnings, leisure interests come in to play. I have found from what I have seen within the community that the general basis for stability and balanced growth is not happening for many reasons such as family, poor education, poor esteem needs and so on. Here I have seen how youngsters and more mature people latch on to a belief system because they feel this provides them with security and caters to their needs that are not being addressed in their relevant areas where they should be. Here we find people creating a mentality that they want, faith system that they want, Guru that they want and eventually the God that they want. Now this has become the individuals’ world it’s been customised for his or her needs, I think here we have the problem. I believe unless we start addressing the basics there is no point address spiritual needs. The mental and physical enhancing, social, family, education needs etc etc need addressing.

Without physical and mental structure and firm rooting, Bagti itself can be dangerous.

    • 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!!
