On a side note: a forum that was trying to do damage to Sikhi from the inside is dying a slow death. Their activity rate has come down almost to zero. I guess the world is waking up to such hate mongers.

Relax bro...

side notes aside, its well known that the level of custom/footfall is greater at the grocers than the jewellers.

I guess the world doesnt change.

Let me start by saying his name is Jagraj Singh and not Jagraj. To those that are criticising I suggest you view all the videos and take the positives. Even I don't agree with all the views but am happy to set aside differences and look at the greater good of what bhaji has started. This project if you like is a labour of love, he has given up a successful career and performs this parchar out of love for Sikhi. Sikh leaders should be paying for his work but instead in this era of kaljug Jagraj Singh is relying on donations!

If we don't support up and coming naujwan parcharaks like this for their selfless service we need to question and ask ourselves what contribution have we made since following Sikhi apart from at best sitting on back benches?

If you feel bhaji can improve or have public speaking experience I suggest you get in touch through the site and let be known your recommendations.

Jagraj Singh posts on this site occasionally and I'm certain will be happy to take on concerns. He is very easy going and thoroughly down to earth.

It is essential we do Parchar. We get countless emails on kids converting to other religions, kids cannot follow what is said at Gurdwaras, the rise of cults etc. This can only be countered by Parchar. As stated before look at the Guru's for inspiration they travelled and met people in India and many other countries spreading the message of Sikhi. They were great missionaries for Sikhi and got other Sikhs including women to do the same.

You doing a great job bro I'm hearing more Western educated Sikhs are looking to create video's based on your model of parchar so you are an inspiration,

Just a few techniques you might want to use in your video's is wearing different clothes and coloured banas when you doing katha's because visually then the video's look different and not all the same. Also try and get someone who is good at making video's with subtitles so that those Sikhs and non-sikhs who are hard of hearing can read along whats being said in the video.

Also if you look at the Islamic propaganda video's they love to use flashy filmy effects in their video's and love to use "fear allah" to get the youth to conform so any gurbani that gives harsh reactions from waheguru to wrong actions / sins of people would be a good way to make people stop and think of the bad non-sikh lifestyle they maybe currently living as most Sikh youths who are sahejdhari seem to think all sins and all actions are jiyaz and there is no need to be religious.....

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
