Self proclaimed "Sant Baba" Daljit Singh Chicagowala is once again in the news for all the wrong reasons. If you remember, this pakhandi sadh was caught in a motel with a woman. He went on talk shows and said he was at his dera. Said he would put his hand on the Guru Granth Sahib and swear it. Then the police reports came out and it was proven that he was in fact caught with a woman in a motel, although he is married. He was let off with a slap on the wrists because he paid off the Jathedars. He is now in the news for human smuggling. He swindled 16 lakhs from someone in india and wouldn't return it when he couldn't bring them to the U.S. He has done this to many people I assume.

No thoughts on this? I'm surprised. It is these Pakhandi Sadhs that swindle money from the sangat and break our religion. Especially this one, seeing as how he makes every attempt to try and say that his "dera" is the headquarters of Sikhs in the U.S. and then he gets caught doing deeds like getting caught in motel with a woman although he is married and now human smuggling.

Deplorable.

It is people like him, who pretend to be sants, that ruin our religion. He was a granthi at a gurdwara in chandigarh and then moved to new york. He got kicked out of the new york under shady circumstances and moved to illinois. There he befriended Jaspal Kaur of chicago, who's husband was sick. He seduced her and once her husband died, they used the money from his insurance policy to pay for the gurdwara. He didn't put in any money. He himself added "Sant" and "Baba" to his name. He even changed his name legally to be "Baba D. Singh". Baba as his first name, D his middle initial, and Singh his last name. He is not a Sant or even a Baba. He is just Daljit Singh. He tries to stop families from coming to the gurdwara who do not agree with his womanizing ways. Is that the work of a Sant? If someone speaks out against him in a civilized manner, he yells and gives them galiyan and tells them to get out of his gurdwara and never come back even though he does not own the gurdwara. He is only president. The other members aren't even involved in the gurdwara, most are just random people that he got to sign. It is also confirmed by many families that were close to him but have now broken off due to his womanizing and non-sikh practices, that he takes pheem. It is also known to those close to him that he married a girl half his age from patiala and then divorced her. He never made the marriage legal by registering it, but they did do all the normal sikh marriage practices (anand karaj, etc.). And he is married and has a son. He is a really low person.

Thanks for detailing the depravity of this person. Simply calling oneself a Sant does not mean getting a free pass in the court of the Almighty.

Any marriage that has been registered in the court of God is valid for the purpose of giving punishment (by Dharam Raj) for breaking that marriage.

He didn't put in any money. He himself added "Sant" and "Baba" to his name. He even changed his name legally to be "Baba D. Singh". Baba as his first name, D his middle initial, and Singh his last name.

LOL. This is pathetic, but it's also funny. It's like Bill Clinton changing his name to Reverend B. Clinton.

He is let in because people are stupid and at first thought it was his gurdwara. Then is was revealed to everyone that he is only president and that the gurdwara is a not-for-profit organization. But once again, like most cases in our panth, no one wants to do anything. They just go to other gurdwaras. They do not want to get into "these matters". Even the Jathedars do not care. They let him off with the punishment of having to do seva at all 5 takhats. SEVA= cleaning up shoes. Even now, just one week prior, Jathedar Gurbachan Singh from Akal Takhat and Jathedar Iqbal Singh from Patna Sahib were at the gurdwara at his invitation for a weekend (nov. 6-8). They went to another gurdwara, SRS Gurdwara Palatine, on saturday and there, they said that they were in the U.S. on the "bidaulat of Sant Baba Daljit Singh". The leaders of our religion basically stated in front of the Guru Granth Sahib and the sangat that they were in the U.S. all thanks to this fake sant. It was despicable.

    • 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!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
