Democratic Vs. non-Democratic Nation


Recommended Posts

For the past 5 days, Sikhs are protesting peacefully outside 10, Downing Street. Now also doing Keertan in the evening/night. Any thing like what is shown in the Video below???

Wonder how you would be treated in the nation from where you come? See the video below ...

If the protestors were Sikhs instead of women,

(a). Indian media would have termed/branded them as Khalistani terrorists (Sikhs raising voice for Justice).

(b). beaten them like anything, jailed them and tried them for war against state, and subsequent execution ...

I have one small request, the justice voice raised by Sikhs abroad - Why we want to constraint it just to SIKHS? As another thread on this forum goes - 4 out of 5 Panj Pyare was not Punjabis, and as I understand, khalsa is for upliftment of rights of all, my opinion is all minorities/Dalits having the same justice issue as Sikhs in India ... We should all join hands ...

it seem's we are wasting our time , people in india dont want our help, and dont appreciate what we are doing here (uk)

I have heard this from family members also, who have visited india and been told everything is ok here it's the western sikhs who are causing the trouble. I wont be taking time of work again to go to protest in london or elsewhere to support people who are ungrateful! and i advice my brother's in the west not to get involved look after your families here and be happy, people in india are not the same as our parents who came from there many years ago, they are happy to live under a regime, or at least the ones who are middle to rich class sikhs are (and that's the type you get on these forums), because lets face it the poor cant afford computers or internet, but it's the poor who suffer!

And to the people in india who say it is the westerner's who are causing the problem's let me tell them, most of the guys born in the west don't care what is going on out in india, it is your indian brother's who have settled here recently or the illegal immigrants from india, who are making all the noise in the uk!

    • 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
    • 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.
    • 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!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
