OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM Gurdwara Parbandak Committee (GPC) GURDWARA SAHIB LEAMINGTON & WARWICK

The Gurdwara Parbandak Committee (GPC) of Gurdwara Sahib Leamington and Warwick in response to the misleading comments made on sikhsangat.com forum, confirms its position as follows:

· We acknowledge all Shaheeds and support the Sri Akhand Paath in their memory.

· The GPC is fully supporting the Sri Akhand Paath being held at Gurdwara Sahib Leamington and Warwick from 11th – 13th November 2011 in respect of Shaheeds.

· We have no intention of holding any Sri Akhand Paath in memory of Indra Ghandi as has been stated in the opening post on the forum.

Ok, provide the above and this on letterheaded paper signed by the current General Secretary:

1) What is the stance of the Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee on Shaheed Bhai Beant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Satwant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Kehar Singh, Shaheed Bhai Harjinder Singh Jinda, Shaheed Bhai Sukhdev Singh Sukha and other Shaheeds of the Sikh movement?

2) The committee or Stage Secretary did not say on stage on Sunday that we do not believe that these Singhs are Shaheeds but Terrorists, and we only believe those mentioned in the Ardas as Shaheeds?

3) The committee did not announce from the Stage that this Sri Akhand Path Sahib (The one in memory of the Shaheeds) is only organised by a MINORITY of the Sangat and the MAJORITY of the Sangat does not agree with this?

4) The committee will never hold, nor allow to hold a Sri Akhand Path Sahib for Indira Ghandi or any other tyrant.

Please clarify this, if you have the official backing of the committee and are a representitive then it should be no problem for you to provide the above on OFFICIAL LETTERHEADED PAPER.

Im a local member of Warwick and Leamington Sikh Gurdwara Sangat.

I can clarify to ALL readers of this post, that words have been fabricated and exaggerated to mis-lead peoples views on how the Warwick and Leamington Sikh Gurdwara is run on a daily basis.

I kindly urge ALL UK Sikh Sangat NOT to get too Excited by the material in this Thread.

Im not here to call anybody a liar, as I don't believe i have the right to judge anybody (much the opposite). I am merely saying that there are certain differences in opinion between some members of the local Sangat here in Warwick and Leamington. To be honest - WHERE IS THERE NOT ANY DIFFERENCE OF OPINION - ANYWHERE THESE DAYS?

How long can people differ with each other? What sort of example are you setting for the youngsters? Youth of Warwick & Leamington are Blessed to know that the Future is Bright and also feel that there is plenty of opportunity to LOVE one another and flourish with CHARDI KALAA.

DIFFERENCE IN OPINION: This inevitably causes minor conflict between individuals. We are fortunate to have a MAJORITY UNITED LOCAL SANGAT that are SEHMAT of each others opinions and respect each other as a whole - which is how Sangat should be everywhere.

I only look back two days ago to Sri Guru Nanak Dev Jis Gurpurab, to witness how the entire Local Sangat stuck together to support each other for such an auspicious occasion. We are UNITED as a whole and wish to remain UNITED and GROW STRONGER to educate our YOUTH, which are fortunate to have such a Beautiful Gurdwara in the Local Community.

Coach loads of people from ALL DIFFERENT Backgrounds still come to visit the Warwick & Leamington Gurdwara on a DAILY / WEEKLY Basis - each and every person walks away with LOVE in their Hearts and a Strong message to forward on to their Family & Friends - This paints more of a realistic Picture of the current State of our Beloved Local Gurdwara.

Im not here to offend anybody, just to tell you the Truth.

Bhul Chuk Maaf Karna Ji.

Oh Dear - does anyone in their right mind believe a gurdwara would hold a Sri Akhand Path Sahib for Indira Ghandi !!!????

The original poster on this thread stated this as fact full well knowing that would stoke up justifiable anger should such a plan be true - one has to question the motives behind these statements.

My understanding there are differences of opinion in Leamington Gurdwara however these are being talked through.

When you are not capable of engaging in debate, in desperation you resort to fabrication and lies

Sad times indeed.

To all members of Sikh Sangat, the last two posts are all made by newbies, by what intention as you can probably conclude yourselves.

These are not new issues Panthic.org has covered what has been going on, please see this website.

Why isit such a problem to issue the following?

Ok, provide the above and this on letterheaded paper signed by the current General Secretary:

1) What is the stance of the Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee on Shaheed Bhai Beant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Satwant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Kehar Singh, Shaheed Bhai Harjinder Singh Jinda, Shaheed Bhai Sukhdev Singh Sukha and other Shaheeds of the Sikh movement?

4) The committee will never hold, nor allow to hold a Sri Akhand Path Sahib for Indira Ghandi or any other tyrant.

So I understand .. newbies views are not valid as they are newbies (?) .. such suspicion brother, for one with such an open mind ..

As regards Panthic - yes not new issues .. however have trouble believing everything I see on that website (then again I am entitled to a view).

Would a statement on official headed paper signed by the General Secretary be good enough for you ? and an end to the matter ?

"Guru Panth Khalsa"

Newbie POSTER on this forum - However an OLD READER on this forum

Ive been Registered for ages here.

My post was to tell the TRUTH.

I have ZERO to do with the GPC of Warwick and Leamington. Im just a Sewadaar like the rest of the Sangat. Just want to tell the readers the reality of our Beloved Gurdwara.

Once again, if what your saying is correct and the alligations are false, please provide the below on letterheaded paper signed by the current General Secretary it shouldnt be a problem, the issue is not with the Gurdwara Sahib, its an issue with the stance, and the thinking of the committee:

1) What is the stance of the Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee on Shaheed Bhai Beant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Satwant Singh, Shaheed Bhai Kehar Singh, Shaheed Bhai Harjinder Singh Jinda, Shaheed Bhai Sukhdev Singh Sukha and other Shaheeds of the Sikh movement?

2) The committee or Stage Secretary did not say on stage on Sunday that we do not believe that these Singhs are Shaheeds but Terrorists, and we only believe those mentioned in the Ardas as Shaheeds?

3) The committee did not announce from the Stage that this Sri Akhand Path Sahib (The one in memory of the Shaheeds) is only organised by a MINORITY of the Sangat and the MAJORITY of the Sangat does not agree with this?

4) The committee will never hold, nor allow to hold a Sri Akhand Path Sahib for Indira Ghandi or any other tyrant.

Please clarify this, if you have the official backing of the committee and are a representitive then it should be no problem for you to provide the above on OFFICIAL LETTERHEADED PAPER.

Sangat Jwaab Mangdi.

    • 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.
