Any chance of some free recordings from the tour. Surely Ksuk have covered their costs with the booking fees?

Fateh ji...

Far from brother... we are still down by quite a bit... With Maharaj's kirpa we will make up what we are missing, if its not too much, we shall regard it as Daswandh and then start to perform the free seva of the audio and DVD's....

i hope the KSUK guys are with me on the above? :) ))))

i don't understand why amazing Keertaniyea like Bhai Niranjan Singh don't have these costs and freely allow keertan to be uploaded on the net?

Please do not spread lies.

Bhai Niranjan Singh charges more than most.

We had a charity program where Bhai Sahib ji was coming. His organiser asked us for money - to which we said okay. He suggested £101 however he said it was up to us. When he did come, we could only manage £51 (please note, this was a CHARITY event) and when we went to give it, he wanted to know where his other £50 was!

Anyway, Chardi Kalaa are exactly what it says on the tin... chardi kalaa :) They were great and i personally, cant wait until they come back.

I hope this thread will stay positive as these Singhs inspired a lot of people when they were over.

wait a minute...are you accusing of spreading lies?

read what i wrote...i don't remember other keertaneyes 'like' Bhai Niranjan Singh (using him as an example only) charging for their Diwan audio's. At no point did i say they (Bhai Niranjan Singh) don't charge the Gurdwara, fee's.

Read what i've wrote before attacking me!!!!

well you didnt actually make that clear in your original post!!!

the organisers of Chardi kala prog are charging for the cds due to the cost of the prog,

the kirtani wouldnt be bothered because they have made loads of money from stage and have had their tickets and costs covered from them

the organisers would probably have 2 cover their costs from somewhere, so selling the cds is not a bad way of doing it!

i cant see anything wrong in it

As United1985 said - the keertania dont have anything to do with the selling of CD's by ksuk. I aint attacking you mate, i simply responded to your message. If you percieved it as an attack... sorry.

Besides, whats it to you?? How does KSUK selling CD's affect you? T-series been selling audio cds for decades and all keertania (all major keertania) have cd's.

These guys are doing a great seva and arent profiting from it. So whats it to you? If you can do the same seva they do of bringing keertania from around the world to UK and not worry about costs, then by all means go ahead and do so and relieve the sevadars of their duties. If not, then chupp kar ke behja. Simple.

Funny how we don't like paying for Gurbani but don't mind paying for anything else.

Even if a Gurbani CD was sold for £1000, it would still be cheap.

This attitude is why there is a shortage of good Granthis in our Gurudwaras. People don't appreciate what it takes and just how important Kirtanis, Raagis, Granthis etc are.

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
