I have a bucket full of water ready to splash it on your paint. This issue is an insult to Sikhs. If we let it be there, it will encourage others. This dude was a Sikh for 20 years! Kids will be the first ones to follow in his steps. They'll be like "If he can do it, so can I". And all those depressed or enraged comments under the video won't have any effect. They will work in a counter fashion, and will only encourage what he did. The world is "dheeth". You ask them NOT to do something, they WILL do it.

My simple argument is if you see someone you really admire doing drugs, let's say smoking some weed, does that mean that you would do it just because they did it? Probably not, if you were really educated about the issue and had a good head on your shoulders. When I was little, I used to see people smoke and do drink all the time on television and I and have never touched the stuff in my life. Why? Because I have something called willpower, which has prevented me from doing anything along those lines.

The same can be said for this video. Do you really think that Sikhs are so uneducated that they would cut their hair because some arrogant dude with a green kheski and a beard decided to do it? No, I give Sikhs much more credit than that. If I had any doubts about cutting my hair, they have all been erased after seeing the END RESULT. This video is very educational, IMHO. Just like those old public service announcements were back in the day about showing how people act when they were high and drunk!

"we could get big bucks shaving sikhs."

vaheguru jee.

I'm going to listen to the whole thing carefully just so I can hear every offensive thing that was said! I do know that he was cursing a lot too! He fooled us all in the first two seconds of the video, but then it just went downhill!

Muah to you, but not all have such a strong will power.

You never know.

No, I give Sikhs much more credit than that.
Thats alright but there are bad apples in every basket.

I get what you are saying, and you have a good point, but this case is totally subjective. It all depends on the individual who sees it. If you really want to use it for educational purposes, its best for those who need to be brought into Sikhi, or kept firm within their Sikhi, so that they can see and decide for themselves. For those who are weak minded individuals, they would use it as an excuse to cut their hair.

    • 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!!
