Beadbhi In London


Recommended Posts

It comes as no surprise to many that the Afgan Sikh community is behind this shame.

If you allow Beadbhi of Guru Granth Sahib, then people will ask what kind of a religion do Sikhs have?

If Sikhs can do this to themselves, what's stopping other people to be equally if not more disrespectful?

If musulman or hindus did this, there would have been international news? Is this incident not a case of double standards?

It doesn't look good for the Afgan Sikh community as a lot of other Southall Sikhs already believe they are ruthless greedy fraudsters that are only maya orientated. (Maybe, this is the effect of too much time with musulmans in Pathanization) (Why setup a separate Gurdwara when the main Southall one (mostly empty) is around the corner?)

People might start to boycott Afgan shops soon...

Either way, the Guru Nanak Darbar Committee need to issue a full apology for their involvement (dating back many years) and sort this mess before it gets out of hand.

Have anyone actually heard from the Guru Nanak Darbar Committee or the people that done this since the news first broke?

It seems the Khalsa Diwan Afganistan are taking the right steps to resolve this but they didn't commit the Beadbhi and there has been no information to suggest anything has changed.

News is slowing spreading by word of mouth and (rightly or wrongly) this will no doubt further damage the image of the Afgan community (its not as if Guru Nanak Darbar Committee hasn't been given enough time to fix this).

The Sikh Channel seem strangely silent...

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Khalsa Diwan Afganisation and the Afgan Sikh community are trying their best but it doesn't appear as if the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara Sahib Committee wants to resolve this.

An acknowledgement that a Beadbhi has occurred as not been formally issued by the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara Sahib in Southall. We appeal to the Afgan Sikh community to step in and resolve this divisive issue.

Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is priceless.

Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is not like an old item of clothing that people can discard. It is the Sikh's most holiest object, the source of our way of life.

The issue, perfectly good Maharaj Saroops are being destroyed (no attempt at repairing them is being made) and persons associated are linked to the production of Saroops. This is a major conflict of interest. We are talking about hundreds of Saroops over the past few years being systematically collected and destroyed for no good reason.

Thousands of people bow down in front of Maharaj everyday, As a Sikh what does it mean to you if you hear that Maharaj is being destroyed for no good reason?

As one person commented 'how would you like it if you were cremated after receiving a small cut or blemish'.

We would appeal to the Sangat that if you are aware of this happening in your area, please report this to us.

If you can no longer maintain (or require) a Maharaj Saroop, or need a repair, please report this to us. Do not assume Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji needs to be destroyed even if someone suggests this.

We would invite committees (or representatives) of ANY or ALL Gurdwara's to comment or advise on what their institutions procedures are for the assessment, collection, repair and destruction of Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.

It will be interesting to see what the response from committees will be as many have been accused of being out of touch.

Gurfateh Jee, DIscover Sikhism made very valid point. This was main concerned Singh's who did sewa of Guru Granth Sahib Jee was told by Gurdwara Guru Nanak Darbaar Committee that all Swroops are Birdh. All sangat was in shock when they discover all 22 Shri Guru Granth Sahib Jee Swroops are in very good condition. Some Swroops are now Parkash in havelock Gurudwara.

Very nicely put, but there's not much chance of getting Masands online. You can find plenty of Masands (Deceivers) counting the golak money though...

Gurfateh Sangat Jee,

MUST WATCH Tonight on Sky Channel 793 MATV at 7pm Live Program on Beadbhi happened in London. HARJAP BHANGAL SHOW.

Shame on Akaal, Sangat and Sikh Channel for not providing coverage and following up on this issue. MATV, a Hindu channel spent 1 hour of a LIVE show discussing what happened.

Whatever people think about attacks on Sikh, it goes to show there are some good Hindu's who seem to respect Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji more than our own community and media!!!

Just when you think you can't be surprised anymore, Waheguru provides a reminder.

Hindu media - 1, Sikh media - 0

Truly is a very shameful day for so called Sikh Media, as Bhai Sahib said (eventhough it hurts to say this) we got to be indebted to MATV (Hindu Ch).

1 hour LIVE show(not recorded) without any constrictions to what could be covered as long as the proofs were made available beforehand to the presenter. Personally think both Singhs did a great job in presenting the case in a very articulate and professional manner. Harjap Bhangal (the presenter - never really heard from him before, but know of him) was very good in informing the audience of the True facts and did a fantastic job as a neutral presenter in highlighting the quality of the evidence as opposed to the childish stupidity of the Guru Nanak Darbar Committee.

    • 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.

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?
    • Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May?  Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj. 
    • best thing is to follow the Sikh Rehat Maryada and use common sense for gray areas. Anything outside of that's irrelevant tbh that code is what Guru Gobind Singh Ji and the 5 Pyaare agreed on when creating Amrit in 1699
