Plans Of A Big Building For Sikhi Parchar In Delhi? Not Viraasat-E-Khalsa!

If there was a huge building made somewhere in India, like Delhi or perhaps Punjab, or where there is a prominent/sizable Sikh population, what could it be used for in order to do Sikhi parchar to youth and children, or generally Sikhs of all ages? Like there is Badal's controversial Viraasat-E-Khalsa, but that promotes a lot of Punjabi culture. This should be just for Sikhi as a way to do parchar? What would you do in the building or put in there (if Sikhs got together and built such a huge building)? Ideas? Please discuss...

I think Virasat-e-khalsa is the best thing that punjab government ever did. I understand your point about punjabi culture but i do not totally reject our old punjabi culture. We do have young ones who hate the culture part for various reasons... maybe it is something that some of us cannot understand as they were never part of that lifestyle.

I think our focus should be on prachar which should not require buildings or other mega projects. We waste our time in planning/building stuff while ignoring the most important part of the project "Prachar". Visit pind by pind and do prachar, live the life of nomad and take shelter in already exiting networks of thousands of gurdwraas in punjab.

Sikhistan, hit the nail on the head. We have too many oversized buildings. We have massive gurdwaray, can just about pay the bills yet no one to use them. Utilise what we have instead of building more huge buildings. Its all about Parchaar.

And we as Sikhs really need to look into conservation and environmental issues.

Do elaborate paji

I was just asking Sikhistan if he was sure Punjab Government was behind the idea of Virasat-e-Khalsa or was it the sangat. How was the project-plan executed and completed, when every CM has to sign that he/she will provide funds for the continuation of the project. In other words, irrelevant who the CM is, the project would have been completed in one way or the other. It was somehow completed within Badal's tenure and which is why he took all the credit for it and received 'Faqr-e-qaum' - which I think was a pure fraud.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
