Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

I am standing here today as a Sikh…a son of Guru Gobind Singh Ji , a person that believes that no man should face what hardships they suffered 26 years ago a person who believes that no man or woman from any race and religion should be killed because of what they believe in. I am no here to tell you a Sakhi about one of our beloved Guru’s or here to tell you a story about a Sant. I am here to tell you the TRUTH of what Sikhism has become; a Dharm where our ancestors fought and gave up there heads for Sikhi and the freedom to practice Religion. They died not for there Religion they died for the freedom of other as well. About 300 years ago one of our Guru’s lost there lives for the Justice of Hindu’s to practice there religion. Our 10^th Guru Gobind Singh Ji who lost there whole family because, they wanted everyone to have the right to practice there religion. . This is what Sikhi is about caring about other people and putting other people before them. We fight over stupid things such as money, houses, and materialistic things. We never appreciate what our ancestors have done. We are all here because of the brave Sikhs who lost there lives for protecting there religion. We are all proud of what we have achieved at school and the hard work we have done of the past 3 years but we never stop and just think what sort of people we would have become if the Khalsa Panth gave up? what sort of people would we have become if our Ancestors had not given up there lives and fallen into the pit of Maya. Some of you may be thinking that it was the past and now is the present and we should care about ourselves and our families well I say to you how would you feel your sisters mother aunts grandma’s cousins were raped how would you feel if your father brother grandfather were killed not because they looked different but the case that they were Sikhs. And how would you feel if your whole family died and looted everything from you. This may sound horrific but it is true. About 26 years ago when our beloved Shrine Sri Harmandir Sahib was attacked and thousand of Sikhs were killed, not just men but children as well. Young children who were looking forward to what sort of game they are going to play tomorrow with there friends what and will happen in school tomorrow. But they did not realize that on that very next day will be there very last. Men who were the Hero’s of India the Hero’s of India who swore that they will never kill there own people Men who swore that they never harm a child but on that very sunny calm day they became Hero’s to Villains the Villains that eventually killed of more that a thousand people and practically destroyed the Sikh Holiest Shrine. We can argue about the cause of these events we can easily blame the people who were involved in it and who eventually who were the cause of the attack it but in fact we can actually never do anything about it. Sikhism is not just about what you say it is about what you do, that makes us different from others we can boast about how religious we are and how religious is the other person. In 1699 The 10^th Guru Guru Gobind Singh Ji gathered 100 thousands of people and said that who will give there head for there Guru only five stood.. when the tank blasted the walls and killed innocent people and what did we do nothing what did our parents do nothing what did the Committees of Gurdwaras do nothing they just watched the horror and did nothing about. Once a wise man said there a three types of people in the world there are the minority who do something there are the minority who doesn’t know what’s happening and worst of all the people who know what is happening but don’t do anything about. When we start to think about what have these committees done for us we all ponder we say well some spend millions and millions on Gurdwaras and still at the end of the day nothing has really happened. But some spend nothing and keep it to themselves at the end of the day nothing has really improved and still the youth are in a mess. Couple of moths ago there was a Gurdwara which I will not name was convicted of fraud some of the receipts or the donations from the Sangat were apparently missing and when the culprit was found out nobody did anything and he wasn’t even reported to the police also a committee in the midlands where they served meat and gave alcohol to the sangat were allegedly told by the SGC to close down the Gurdwara or take the SGGS out of the Building luckily they have changed. We live in a society where head of the political parties at the Gurdwaras start to fight argue and eventually start to fight and when these chairman’s are elected they take most of the Sangats money and put it into there own bank accounts. Almost everyday they are people who come down our school road and create havoc amongst the pupils of our school even though they are from the same culture and they are from the religion they still cause havoc. We can not blame these people for who they are we should take Justice on the people who put them in the wrong path. But we can also arise the question on why are we not doing anything about it. Is it us and not taking the courage to stand up or is it the media where these people watch depressing programs on TV and they think that they should behave like that. When these committees are elected the only things in there minds are Money it is not here only It is also in India as well they have been many Gurdwaras in the India in which they have gone against the Rehat Maryada and made one of there own. Some have actually disrespected Maharaj so much that eventually that they need to replace the damaged one and get a new one. When these parties have a disagreement with each other some of the party members start to fight with the members of the other party and in some cases there have been people who have been injured and the police has been called down. This is the type of behavior that Sikhism opposes. As the people in America consider the twin towers falling was there wake up call and there 9 11 we should consider the fall of Akal Takht as our 9 11 and our wake up call. Everyday just think of the mothers who can not sleep at night because they can still hear the gun fire, think of the fathers who still remember there wives there sons being shot and there daughters raped think of the 9 year child who died at the attacks and always remember the two Sikhs who gave up there lives for our religion. We are not late we still have time but we must act together side by side for freedom and justice.

I have nothing to offer you but if we all put our hands together and pray to Guru Gobind Singh Ji and ask for strength and courage we can all finally have justice and freedom.

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

lion kingdom i am saying that if we do not do anythign now sikhi will be truly gone because if u look in the uk only a minority of the new generation now about sikhism and there parents are sikh if we do nothing we won't achieve anything. Guru ji gave us alot and we are slowly losing it look at today the state of punjab 800 girls to 1000 boys. they are aborting female foetus. We have done nothing in the last 26 years look at the 84 riots alot of people died in that but no one did anything. I am sorry if anyone is offended by this but this is from the heart
