Punjab Is Just Too Much Into Materialistic Duniya

Most places in the world are similar, but the way it manifests itself in Panjab is completely crass and without substance. God forbid anyone residing in the Western world should dare to mention this fact, and we are immediately derided for being jealous of their "success", as well as being two-faced for enjoying the fruits of the Western world whilst being judgemental about our countrymen(!)

Chalo let them enjoy it. They will eventually learn the error of their ways.

Guru Arjan Dev Ji said this to Emporer Jahangir: 'Whatever money I have is for the poor, the friendless, and the stranger."

Sakhis of Guru Angad Dev Ji say he distributed food to the poor just about daily.

A sakhi of Guru Nanak Dev Ji says his father gave him money to go and do business. But Guru Ji gave all the money to the poor and to saints. On arriving back home, when his father asked where the money he gave for business went, Guru Ji replied that he had done the True business.

Guru Har Rai Ji was known for his community service and helping the poor. The Gurus messages were clear yet so few modern day sikhs pay heed.

We serve the poor, helpless and downtrodden. Our Gurus helped people of different religions with money, food and to fight battles- they had no personal stake in any of it.

Sikh sangat, let charities advertise on here, at least that has a chance of waking people up to the state of those who are hungry and dying around the world out of our own comfort zones.

Wikipedia says there are over 25 Million Sikhs in the world today. If we gave 10% of our earnings or even less, if we actually lived as sikhs, how much of a difference could we make, how many lives could we save.

Give money to Oxfam, to a charity- stop the selfishness, feed those who are starving and dying.
