Sikh Youth On Facebook

As a teenager guy, I am a huge user of Facebook as are many people my age.

What I see on there on a daily basis, is just hugely wrong and disgusting. I see our sisters uploading pictures where they are drinking alcohol and are dressed half-naked. I see our brothers trying to chat up anything they can get.

Is this where we are going? Our youth have lost all connection with their Sikh roots and nothing is being done about it. This state is currently the worst it has been ever... so what should we do?

Also, if any Sikh teenagers want to discuss Sikhi on Facebook, feel free to message me your profile link and I will add you.

Understand that our brothers and sisters is all of humanity not just punjabi sikh community this is occuring due to media and its corruption. A Sikh by strictest of definition is amritdhari anyone born into a Sikh family is supposed to take amrit and such conduct is wrong and would make them tankhian ex-communicated. Most people from Sikh background and not Sikh background do not know anything about Sikhism pretty much all they see is we are people who wear turbans. We have to respect other peoples freedom but all you can do is to practice your own Sikhi do all you paath, ishnaan, naam sewa and do lots of Sikh parcharak teach everyone about Sikhism, go put leaflets in Gurdwaras even the elders sitting in Gurdwara do not know much about Sikhism alot of them were forced into there religion as kids and the same can not be done in this country, they were beaten as kids. Put free leaflets in Gurdwaras do all you can share stories about Sikhism with all of these guys learn from them the moral and sikhi stories they have there is alot of peer pressure for these things. These guys also want to learn about Sikhism everyone really does, but the language gap is harsh.

    • 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.
