Shaheed Bhai Beant Singh restored the fallen turban of the Sikh nation to full glory when he assassinated Indira Gandhi on this day in 1984.

I was watching his son, Sarbjit Singh on Akaal Channel on 30th October. Both he and Ravi Singh from Khalsa Aid didn't hold back when criticising so-called panthic jathebandi's. Sarbjit Singh said that at the time of his father's death, Damdami Taksal announced in the press they would financially support his family with tuition fee's for school etc. One year later, upon collecting money from Mehta, they were told there is no more money coming! As Ravi Singh said, we (Sikhs) are ready to buy a car for so-called preachers who come from India, who haven't given any shaheedi. Yet someone who restored our turban back on our head, his son has to struggle to get menial jobs in Australia. Why aren't we helping people like Sarbjit Singh or indeed other shaheed families? Our priorities are totally misplaced.

Mahaan smagams are all well and good, but is that what the shaheed families want? Entrepreneurial Sikhs should invest in Panjab to provide employment for these descendents of great shaheeds. Otherwise, it's just all hot air.

It'll put a few noses out of joint, but sometimes its just got to be said.

UK = Well said DM Singh. Not just the Sikh Qaum - one day the whole of India should recognise our Mahaan Shaheeds for sacrificing their own lives to avoid further bloodshed and Genocide of the innocent in the way Indira and Congress at that time had planned. Personally I believe IGI airport should be renamed in their honour - but the only way we will achieve that is by explaining to more so-called Hindu's what Gurbani is, what it means and what it stands for in terms of the transformation for justice and equality Sikhi can bring to society.

Mahan Shaheeds of Sikh Nation: Sardat Beant Singh ji, Sardar Satwant Singh ji, and Sardar Kehar Singh ji. I agree we are giving money to so-called preachers and not to the Shaheed families. I hope we can change this.

UK = Well said acsap Paji

Bhai Beant Singh jees wife was brought back to punjab with huge support of sikh sangat and she was even elected as MLA. She passed away due by electric shock from washing machine. Anyway my main point is that Bhai Beant Singh jee did what people like me couldn't do it. Sikh Sangataan did what they could do to parivaars of such family and somehow kin of such prestige souls should not depend on others for long time. I am extremely sorry if i offended anyone but i wanted to clear that Sangataan did support such parivaars.

What i really want to see is schools or buildings named after these three mahan shaheeds of kaum.

UK = Singh4Peace Paji ... Bibi Bimal Kaur Khalsa was killed by the central government (it was no random accident). I agree with you that the kin of our shaheeds should not sponge off the Qaum - but equally we must not allow them to go without support (which has often happened and which Khalsa Aid and others have highlighted). The success of Sikhi outside of Punjab will be measured by how many schools we see named after these three Mahaan Shaheeds in Delhi within 20-40years. The drugs connection is a familiar RSS refrain. They blame the Sikhs in the widows colony for being on drugs and they blame the sons of our Shaheeds for being on drugs (often falsely to malign them) because in RSS ruled India the rapist is never at fault - the blame always lies with the rape victim.

Anyways, he said that the only 'wrongdoing' Bhai Kehar Singh Jee did was inspire/convince either Bhai Beant Singh Jee or Bhai Satwant Singh Jee (I forgot which one) to take Khandey Di Pahul.

So the whole case against him was based on that.

For a Sikh to inspire another to take Amrit is a crime and viewed as terrorist activity in some parts of this world.

UK = DSGj bir'ay I believe Bhai Kehar Singh Ji was actually instrumental in both Bhai Beant Singh Ji (his relative) and Bhai Satwant Singh Ji's journeys deeper towards the Khalsa Panth and the Khalsa ethos of self-sacrifice for the greater good of humanity.

    • 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.
