Recommended Posts

Some support sikh channel (gurnam5), others like jagtarsinghkhalsa support their organisations and jasb not sure, but some like myself are ordinary sikhs who dont want to score points for any particular organisation.

So what the problem is between these organisations most of us dont really care anymore, someone posts about an event taking place and is being questioned about did it make us proud or ashamed and another is now saying make your minds up one or two events, what the hell, i am not in any of these organisation neither do i intend to be, so do as you please children.

When an ordinary sikh like Gurbaksh singh ji comes out of the blue and make a difference it proves that some of these groups that are allegedly leading the way are clearly not and are a waste of time !!

This thread is about the Sunday 8 June 2014 event and the widespread support that is being galvanised.

Sat introduced the 31 December event into the thread rater than start a separate thread.

The point is should any Tom, <banned word filter activated> or Harry who totally disrespects the Sikh identity, has no track record and has been silent for 29 years be allowed to lead on organising the historic 30th anniversary June event and totally disregard UK Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations that have been organising and supporting the event since 1984.

Everyone agreed there should be one event led by the Federation of Sikh Organisations (FSO) supported by Gurdwaras. The event on 31 December was organised by the rival group who claim to represent the PANTH and are telling the mainstream media this is the case. It is therefore crucial we expose the group when it claims to represent the PANTH, but cannot even muster 50 people in support. On the negative side the rival group is causing confusion, on the positive side it is uniting Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations that believe the rival group is the work of operatives of the Indian authorities.

I innocently mentioned about another event taking place and it was not do divide or divert attention away from any other event,

I pray Guru ji will give us more sense in future, i will attend the remembrance march in june and i will continue to support other such events, i am an amritdhari and i will also continue to stand with my non amritdhari / moneh veer too, who sometimes show more respect for sikhi than us . you are clearly referring to moneh / non amritdhari sikh brothers and sisters, with you comments below (which will only divide us)!! anyone can change i too was a mona previously but try to help my veers to come into sikh.

And was not all the marching rallying and tv channels etc to bring awareness to the people which is what has happened hence now more people are trying to do something positive , i thank you for bringing your thoughts to mine and everyone else's attention .

Sat - Apologies if I have offended and your post relating to another event was innocent.

I have written nothing offensive to you, please reciprocate this behavour. Simply pointed out a separate thread would have been better and this discussion deflects fom 8 June 2014 event.

Comments about those disrespecting Sikh identity is aimed at one or two that have been active on social media, TVi.e Bhajan Singh. I find most moneh are very respectful to the Sikh identity.

Sat;

Calm down.

Let me start by confirming that I have no personal connection to any of the groups, channels, or organisations being mentioned. My only possible connection could be that all I am very openly KHALISTANI loud and proud and as such I will support my brothers and sisters that do not actively seek to divide and weaken our freedom movement.

Now, coming to the possibility that a rival event may be introduced in June 2014 to divide and weaken the Hyde Park march. It doesn't take an einstein to work out the kind of damage that would do to my cause, which is equivalent to the cause of millions of my Sikh brothers and sisters across the globe, that is for you, and the benefit of the doubt; FREEDOM from terrorist brahmanistani (Indian) rule. Our kaum is already divided enough, do we really need to divide up our freedom rallies too? Speaking to you as your brother, can I ask you to at the very least respectfully consider the implications of organising a rival event in June?

As I have already stated, I have no personal connection with any of these groups, forget even know who they are, but to take an ardas in front of SSGGSJM to support one UNITED remembrance & freedom rally and then to almost immediately (just a week later) break that ardas . Throw your toys out of the pram. Say you don't care, you're going to press full steam ahead. To me that is unforgivable. Your post says that you didn't know any of this, well you know now. The conference was held at GNG Smethwick and the videos are up on youtube. You talk about acting like children. You tell me, do adults or children break their ardas?

My post (#80) did indeed ask you to make up your mind whether you want one UNITED remembrance & freedom rally, or two, three, four, however many you like, because it clearly appeared and still does that you were promoting the cause of DIVISION by advertising this 31 Dec event in this thread. Now, since I don't know you, that is either innocently ignorant of the whole thread up to this point, although still irresponsible, or plain devious.

You have pleaded innocence, but not without wholesale verbally abusing valued organisations and individual sewadaars of the kaum who have kept the freedom movement burning and alive for over 30 years, and, in the face of brutal Indian dominance, still refuse to give up. Now that's true Khalsa spirit.

Why d' you post arrogant, cheap, snide diatribes with comments like "what the hell", "do as you please children", "you want to grow up and get off your high horse", "so called sikhs"...???

For all your big talk of being an "amritdhari" you haven't conquered your own krodh. It seems like a habit for you as you have been arguing and bickering in other threads too. You tell others to get off their high horse. From your style of language and tone, you need to take your own advice. I say it to you plain and clear brother, you come across write unpleasant like you've got a serious attitude problem and a very heavy chip on your shoulder. Now that's your problem to sort out, not mine.

But I tell you what bro, I don't appreciate you calling me a kid. That too when I have said nothing to offend you, and only spoken to you as my brother with pyaar.

WJKK WJKF!

Thank you to the mod veers for removing jashb's rude post, and i have edited my posts in the interest of ekta as requested by uklondonsikh veer. personal verbal attacks are a weakness of intellect and dialogue and only show the person making such attacks has reached their limit and lost the debate. :biggrin2:

    • I was searching igurbani.com which gives correct pronunciation of Gurbani. I can’t remember all of it at once. I guess it relies on more practice, like more Sehaj Paths. The meaning becomes clearer. I have noticed slight variants in it. This could be because it’s written in old Punjabi.  
    • Veer Manpreet Singh, a lay preacher, claims that -Sikhs aren't supposed to worship Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We are only supposed to worship God as is written in Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We only "revere" Guru Granth Sahib ji.     He says a lot of other things in this video, some are good refutations of Hindu superstitions, but the reformers often go too far. Anyways, what he is saying about not worshipping Guru Granth Sahib ji is totally wrong. The reason is Guru Granth Sahib ji is Guru. Guru is Satguru. Satguru is God. We worship God. Therefore, we also worship Satguru (Guru Granth Sahib ji).   There are innumerable verses in Gurbani equating God and Guru. ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਡੁਬਦਾ ਲਏ ਤਰਾਇ ॥੨॥ The Guru is the Supreme Lord and the Transcendent Master. The Guru floats (saves) the drowning one. p49   ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਏਕੋ ਜਾਣੁ ॥ Know the Guru and God as One. p864   ਗੁਰ ਨਾਲਿ ਤੁਲਿ ਨ ਲਗਈ ਖੋਜਿ ਡਿਠਾ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੰਡੁ ॥ There is no one at par with the Guru. I have searched and seen the whole universe. p49 (If the Guru is the greatest in the whole universe, shouldn't we worship the Guru?)   I'd like to ask Manpreet Singh what is worship? Any reasonable definition would include obeisance, remembrance, and praise. Those are exactly the same things Gurbani says to do regarding Guru! Remembrance and obeisance: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਅਪਨਾ ਸਦ ਸਦਾ ਸਮ੍ਹਾਰੇ ॥ Ever, ever, I think of the True Guru, ਗੁਰ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਕੇਸ ਸੰਗਿ ਝਾਰੇ ॥੧॥ and the Guru's feet I brush with my head's hair. p387   Praise: ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਆਪਿ ॥ The Guru himself is the transcendent Lord and the supreme master. ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਜਾਪਿ ॥੪॥੧੬॥੬੭॥ Throughout the eight watches of the day, O Nanak meditate thou on the Guru. p387   In fact, Gurbani says the way to find God is to worship (puja) of Guru: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਧੋਇ ਧੋਇ ਪੂਜਹੁ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਲਹੁ ਰੇ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Washing and bathing the True Guru's feet, worship thou them. In this way thou shall obtain my Lord Master. Pause. p1118   Could it be any clearer that we are to worship Guru ji?
    • Bro, reciting a shorter Chaupai Sahib is hardly "anti-Dasam". It's fine to argue that the longer Chaupai is more traditional, but the short one isn't anti-Dasam. That's like claiming shorter Rehras is anti-Guru Granth Sahib ji just because there are fewer selections from Guru Granth Sahib. It might not be traditional, but it's not anti-Guru Granth Sahib. I prefer the longer versions, but let's not exaggerate. Every tradition has a slightly different Rehras version. Nanaksar vs Taksal vs Nihangs and so on. The basic template for Rehras is at the beginning of Guru Granth Sahib ji. Later, Chaupai Sahib was added and Anand Sahib always follows as the end of a process. Then some sangats added more saloks to start Rehras and others were added at the end. Some additional selections from Dasam Bani were also added, but it wasn't the same ones for every sangat. The important thing is to not hate on each other for these variations.
    • Umm, so you're upset that this jatha did Chaupai the same way it's being done at Harimandar Sahib for 100 years? Shouldn't you be upset at the manager of Darbar Sahib? I'm not saying that Sikhs who are aware of certain issues shouldn't do the longer Chaupai, but there are only so many battles you can fight. Instead of calling some jatha traitors because they're doing the (for better or worse) "standard" Chauapai published by the SGPC, it would be better to change things from the central point. You can't fault the average Sikh for picking up the average Gutka and doing paath.
    • It's the same here in Toronto. Alot of the gudwaras here are political orientated and get tons of funding from the government-probably want them stay hush hush with all the BS that has been happening with India.  These guys are skewing gurbani. A complaint was sent to a ragi singh a couple of days ago in regards to a hukamnama.
