Sikhs are a martial people yet have had very little to no success on international stage in sports like boxing wrestling mma

in the west the number of Sikhs going into armies is very very little as well

have Sikhs lost their martial culture

I read about Sikhs being bullied or muslims bullying sikhs

is this cause Sikhs have lost their martial culture?

Yes, its a big problem too many "hippy" Sikhs these days martial culture and physical fitness has all but been abandoned by most.

It's not a new phenomenon either this has been an issue for the last 60 years at least, martial culture died after the end of the Anglo Sikh wars when the British helped create a subversant weakened brand of Sikhi and SGPC/Singh Sabha removed Buddha Dal Nihangs from Akal Takht, along with removal of dasam granth and bir raas bani from most Gurdwaras.

How many Sikhs could have saved themselves and their families in Delhi after Indira Gandhi's assassination if they listened to Guru Sahibs hukam and were "tyar bar tyar" shasterdari.. What happened to 1 Sikh can fight Sava lakh opponent's ??

Fight Science.

Aldershot.

September 27th.

Doors open at 5:00.

Come out for an evening's festivities.

I'm on the under card that evening.

There's a fair few quality clubs in Surrey here in the UK. PM me for more info.

Momentum is built by action. Just come out and hit some pads! You're never too old or too young to learn how to use your body!

Then you'll see it spread like magic through your family and local community!

...or if you live outside Surrey, go go Google go!

:)

      Nidar Singh Nihang X The Ranveer show podcast

      By ipledgeblue · Posted

      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.

      Why are starched turbans hated?

      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?

      30th May over 6th June?

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      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.

      do uk ramgharia gurdwaras disrespect langar maryada and treat it as a restaurant, is their use of ramgharia label a scam?

      By VSinghz7 · Posted

      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
