As we seen with Channel4's Tamil Documentary, media plays the greatest role in not only educating ones own community but the outside world as well.

At the time of 1984 Delhi massacre, dozens of newspaper reporters and camera men who worked for mostly state owned TV and newspapers were in the area, most of these photos were not published.

How can we make an appeal to those who may have photos in their archives?

Politicians and officials would have destroyed some, but i'm sure there's many still unpublished on reels.

Money incentive for previously unpublished photos?

Website with anonymous submission for Cash?

Let make the media campaign for the memory of the dehli massacre this November the biggest ever.

Apologies if this is slightly off-topic. The Tamil groups in East London led a strong local campaign of publicity prior to the airing of this Channel 4 documentary with leaflet drops to houses targeted at non-Tamils to watch the documentary. An excellent way of raising the profile of the issue. I will scan the leaflet I got through my letterbox on Sunday highlighting the atrocities by the Sri Lankan Gov't on Tamils whilst also urging people to watch the show. Door to door leaflet drops are a simple but effective way of raising the profile of an issue amongst the wider community.

However back to specific topic, as Sarbha Punjab has pointed out there needs to be a mass exercise of delving into media archives to recover footage relating to Delhi 84 Galucara. Don't forget the Global media would have been present in Delhi during the few days covering Indira Ghandi's funeral, so there must be footage out there that's either been surpressed or forgotten about. Most TV media companies archive aired footage, however this policy will vary and it's the un-aired footage that we are probably after.

We can fund a reasearcher or commission some kind of reputable independent documentary-media company?

Jagmeet Singh Samundri is one amazing director and you can see his work here: http://www.youtube.com/user/sikhmediaworld

He is very professional and very fast in his work and a very good friend of mine. He is so dedicated to create Sikh history in media format that he does that on no loss no profit basis.

I am sure in nearby future i will be happy to work with him on creating something beneficial for our community.

      Traveling in Punjab independently and safely (need good advice)

      By BhForce · Posted

      Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.

      Concept of Sin

      By MokhamSingh · Posted

      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…

      Concept of Sin

      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

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      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!!
