Thoguht we could discuss how we as a community can help to stop the gang-culture that seems to be taking over cities.

It's a vicious cycle, when kids start taking up arms in the street and killing each other with them and govt isnt providing secruity then other kids start taking up arms to protect themselves.

Solution is not simple, but they can start by first providing basic secruity (ie more police on streets especially council estates). The basic requirement of any nation and its government is to protect its citizens. If a govt cant do that then there is no need to recognise the authority of such a govt and people will make their own arrangements for defence.

Its called interpersonal violence. Frantz Fanon describes it the best. The frustrations of the structural violence manifest themselves in the violence between the people who cannot reach the real perpetrators. Less police on the streets is best. Police merely carry out the orders of the real oppressors.

A break from the shackles is needed because it is evident through governments control in educational material, media, etc what the people experience is nothing short of brainwashing. The people need to be awakened from the structural injustices and re structure their resources against the oppressors instead of one another.

In essence education is needed, the streets, etc need to be reclaimed by the people and the corporate driven state, media, etc must be pushed out of our homes and lives.

We need more Black Panther Parties, community control. Instead when the government steps in groups like the Black Panther Party split into groups like the Bloods and Crips and take out their aggression on one another.

The Punjab saga is similar... united fronts with Sant Ji, led to govt infiltration and splits which in turn led to in fighting.

*Brapp**

Sher-e Punjab!! :lol: (im talkn da ol skool ones)

Oh man, haven't we all heard.

The nightclub scene in London is being polluted with violence and the like. I'm not saying I support nightclubs, or even go. They are against my religion [Not sure about yours?] but even the guy from Harry Potter was killed at 20.

There needs to be harsher law enforcement in the area on busy nights, I'd say. lock out time, cops around the city...Maybe even shut them all down? [Wishful thinking, I know. :( ]

i honestly doubt more cops is gona do anything but increase hate. u gotta put money where the kids are. High schools!!! I think teachers/staff need to be more approchable and closrer to student. When you go to school, there studentss that come to do their work and staff who comes to do their work jobs/make money. MAybe more or if any social workers need to be in schools as apart of staff. Most violenee starts at school so thats where the dilemma needs to be attacked.

many factors play role in such cases (environment; nature and nurture(even though i think they both the same) which includes parents/family/school/sangat...etc)

its sad that our govt doesnt have money for schools and teachers but u do see people who want to make a difference working night and day passionately..'one child at a time'=)

the fact is many people are trying to figure out what should be done so each child can grow up properly...unfortunately most of the theories tried in schools or outside of school dont work.

few have come to the conclusion that there isnt a single theory developed that can help turn this world into "satjug" (obviously?)

maybe u think otherwise?

Thanks Singhavelli for sharing

interpersonal violence

    • 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!!
