Yes i agree. We should refrain from sending special invitation to politicians as it would defeat purpose of sangat, everyone is invited to sangat automatically as long certain principles are met- cover your head etc. But it boogles me, how we get ourselves in negative news all the time in the media. Its also worth noting that we are alost most disliked group/community within Canadian Community based on independent survey. Thanks to our incompetent pardans and our leaders who are not doing enough to represent sikh community positively.

I think it is stupid to glorify Khalistan or militants in the parade. This event is supposed to be about Khalsa and not 80s. Our leaders are more busy in scoring points over one another than doing something positive for people.

I won't put up a picture of Satwant Singh ji and Beant Singh ji, two Sikhs that gave their life for the Panth, because some politician calls them miltants, then I might aswell be dead.

Those pictures are put up so people will know these men are honored by the Khalsa Panth for their courages acts.

Here is an possible solution, have a Canadian Sikh body which represent all the jathas of sikhs living in Canada. I think there is already World Canadian Sikh Organization. We need them to issue an statement here. Look this bains dude could be GOI or darshan lal or an fanatic extermist but thats not the point. The point is this dude is happen to be sikh and organizer for the vaishakhi sikh event. That very much represents the Sikh community. We should wake up from denial that is our fault and acknowledge there is bad element in our panth and condemn them to fullest extend and figure how to deal with this chakanya type of politics afterwards but right now- We must get World Canadian Sikh Organization body to issue an statement condemning this idi ot and his act

*EDITED* But asking to remove pictures of sant jarnail singh bhindranwale and satwant and beant singh ji and other mahan shaheeds , its like asking india to remove- bhagat singh, udham singh and shiva ji warrior who fought and got the nation and its people freedom from british and mughal rule. Media should also note in England, bhagat singh and udham singh are still consider to be terrorist but in india they are consider freedom fighers - shaheed/Matyrs.. Media is totally wrong regarding on shaheed satwant singh and beant singh.

Singh I agree with you. In no way am I justifying this Bains guys actions and if it sounds like I am then I apologize. These actions are completely unacceptable. This mans actions must be condemned to the max. There is no room for this behavior.

Even Damesh Darbar needs to take this person out of their circle and completely, single this man out who acted out of his own selfish ways.

From what i got by searching google news is that organisers are not gonna apologise as they say no threat was issued. Only it was said that the two MPS were not invited but are welcome to attend. Incase they choose to attend they should bring their own security as they are not on official invitee list and organisors are not gonna provide extra security and if some fundamentalist attender gets charged up on them due to their moderate views it is not organisers fault so they should bring their own security. It is a small issue concerning one organiser and perceived anti-sikh politicians by many sikhs.

Please dont make mountains out of moles (right quote?)

    • 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!!
