alot of native russians have become hare krishnas and are a part of the ISKON movement...im curious to see how this will go down...regardless of the recent bad history with hindus...i stand by them in this...no scripture should ever be banned..it should be analysed and its word should be discussed..not banned!!...also ive heard in recent years the neo nazis in russia have been gaining very large support and will eventually make it into mainstream russian politics...the sangat should realise they can just as easily ban sri dasam granth sahib ji...as in there eyes it can be classified as extreme with its main theme on war and battle...

I've been following this up on the Indian media channels today and it seems to have hot the nerve of the Hindu ministers in parliament. I've also heard Manmogam Singh is being urged to intervene but I am also aware of the problems Sikhs have been facing in France regarding the Dastar and I also remember that this issue just went over the heads of the mainstream Hindu Parties in India.

No support from me as my brothers and sisters have suffered and no one listened to them in their hour of need.

I know these are harsh words but I'm done with political correctness!

Whilst I agree that no scriptures should be banned the fact of the matter is that the translation has been done by an organisation called ISKCON - International Society for Krishna Consciousness. Earlier this year the Gurdwara in my home town received a letter from these people. They were going to be holding their equivalent of a nagar kirtan (Rath Yatra) and had asked to use the Gurdwara to prepare langar. They basically wanted the Gurdwara to donate to their cause. In the letter they indirectly insulted us by suggesting that our women could dance and do bhangra in front of the Rath for Lord Jagannath. They also sent literature which has been written by their leader and actually appears on Sikhiwiki suggesting that Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji was so overwhelmed with love for Lord Jagannath that he recited the Aarti. The article has other distortions to it.

SO IN THIS CASE THE BANNING OF LITERATURE BY THIS ORGANISATION IS NOT A BAD THING! They distort the truth.

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
