Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!!

Just received this text:

"Gurfateh! Sukhwinder Singh Ji died as a national hero on the corner of Victoria Road & Uphall Road, Barking. Benti to local Sikh Sangat to lay flowers down on the site in memory of the Singh's bravery. Dhan Guru Dhan Guru Pyaray!"

Please take some time out, I saw only one bunch of flowers there. We need to show how proud we are of this Singh!

It's the least we as local Sikhs should do! I just saw the report on ITN news and there was only a small bunch of flowers pictured in the corner. Come on, if this was a Gora-Have-a-go-Hero, the site of his death would be close to a shrine flooded with flowers and memorials

I live down the other end of London, my wife and I are planning to come to Barking tomorrow to visit the Gurdwara and lay down some flowers where the Singh died....

Let's face it many of us wouldn't have the courage to stand up to a mugger if they were mugging us let alone someone else. This Singh deserves the treatment of an inspirational hero within British settled Sikhs.

Also if anyone knows how send money to Sukhwinder Singhs family in India, please PM me.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

I have seen bhai sahib at barking gurudwara many times. Unfortunately, I never knew him personally but he was surely a true chardi kala Singh. He stood up to guru ji's bachans

salok kabeer ||

gagan dhamaamaa baajiou pariou neesaanai ghaao ||

khaeth j maa(n)ddiou sooramaa ab joojhan ko dhaao ||1||

sooraa so pehichaaneeai j larai dheen kae haeth ||

purajaa purajaa katt marai kabehoo n shhaaddai khaeth ||2||2||

Salok, Kabeer:

The battle-drum beats in the sky of the mind; aim is taken, and the wound is inflicted.

The spiritual warriors enter the field of battle; now is the time to fight! ||1||

He alone is known as a spiritual hero, who fights in defense of religion.

He may be cut apart, piece by piece, but he never leaves the field of battle. ||2||2|

I wish if satgur ji give enough strength to all of us sikhs to stand up against crime and unjust. I also hope this may also encourage most of sikhs to shak amrit and training of any martial art form.

bhul chuk mauf

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

"Deh Shiva Bar Mohe Ihai

Shubh Karman te Kabhu Na Taroo"

-Grant me this blessing O God,

That I never refrain from carrying out a righteous act.

A true Sikh of the Guru...I remember this Singh singing dharmik geet/dharna when in the sangat during the East London Nagar Kirtans.

Is there any local keertan programmes in his memory? There should be some kind of memorial for him even if the funeral is not in the UK.

URGENT.

I have just been approached by a colleague at work who wants to send some money to Bhai Sukhwinder Singh’s family in India. It’s not a big amount, as I am Sikh she has asked if I could find out for her.

Is there a fund being collected? Does anyone have Bhai Sahib’s cousin’s or uncles’s mobile number?

Many thanks in advance.

The brave death of Bhai Sukhwinder Singh is an inspiration for us bickering Sikhs. So many of us are so into our Jathas, our Groups, our version of history and our version of maryada. We spend hours proving each other wrong and justifying our Sikh superiority over others, justifying our own jeevans.

However, picture this. A women being mugged by 2 big black men, a woman being punched in the face by the aggressive mugger and then a lone Singh of Guru Gobind Singh Ji giving chase to these muggers risking more than just his live, but risking the life-line of his wife, son, mother and father all the way in Punjab. How many of us would have gone this far to help someone? How many of us Sikhs would fear our own lives and turn a blind eye?

This is “Sarbat Da Balla” in its entireity. This is the “Shubh Karman” that Guru Gobind Singh Ji talks about. This Singh belonged to no Jatha, no Taksaal, no Dal, he was just a sewadar earning a living in the UK. He was a Sikh of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, of Guru Granth Sahib Ji

Please let’s not forget this. Sukhwinder Singh has become a national hero for Britain, his memory in the mainstream may only last a few days but his noble deeds should be an inspiration for us Sikhs for the rest of our lives. Please, let’s not forget this veer’s actions. Someone’s already mentioned a fund for the family of Sukhwinder Singh, please can this be shared amongst the Sangat so that we can show his family that they were blessed with a brave son, a brave father and a brave husband.

I passed by the crime scene last night and it felt like an empty ground with no memorial for what this Singh. When a loved on is killed in a car accident, people place flowers, cards, photographs on the scene, people visit the scene and remember their loved one. This Singh was a Pyara (loved one) of the Guru and the least we owe him a place in our memories.

Just Wanted to say that Money isnt a big issue here, but however if the sangat wants to help then defoo's something will be done by the local gurudwara commitee as they can make sure that in india the money goes in the right hands e.g. Son or his wife. I will post up some useful numbers to contact as his relatives are still getting in touch with the commitee at the gurudwara to encourage the police to send Sukhwinder's Body back home soon as possible.Hopefully There will be a programme organised at the Gurudwara for his bravery. Will post up any info later. Back to revision.Exams 2mrw :(

A really beautifully post above........We visited the scene of the death of Bhai Sukhwinder Singh today, some of the local residents came out to talk to us asking if we knew Bhai Sahib personally. There's small number of flowers placed around one of the lamposts on the corner of Victoria road and Loxford road, one was from a local Black resident, the card praised Bhai Sahib's bravery and said that not all Black people are muggers and thieves....looks like this is really bringing the local community together..

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
