I don't know why.....I mean there must be a reason......but I just don't know why some of you are covering your eyes and ears and pretending that you just haven't seen or heard how Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, in his speeches, also used to call Amritsar 'Ambarsar'.

You see and read that and yet you still continue to label all those that do as 'illiterate backward pendus' and non-sikhs. :wow:

Can you read or you just have to say something for the sake of it. For your understanding again we are talking about our Gurus who gave the name Amritsar and not about any Sant or Babas.

So I have noticed some members come down hard on any post referring to caste. What astounds me is one of those contributors who has commented on this very discussion has not once told the poster who refers to bhatra 's to refrain from his castiest remarks. Jsinghnz, why you have double standards? When bhatra is mentioned in other posts you never seem to mind but jatt is mentioned and well pher tha allergic reaction! Check all the casteist post by jroudh, not one mention!

Also jroudh how many times are you going to keep contradicting yourself? When someone asks an uncomfortable question about bhatreh you go all defensive. I have many questions I want ask you but like other post you will laugh them off, here's a thing go ask your parents, uncles, or other elders before you answer.

I don't know about others but when I say Pendu I don't mean it in a disrespectful way. In the Pends is where our culture and sabhyachaar is. It is where purest Punjabi is spoken. And Pendu Punjabi of Amritsar is the standard Punjabi accent. But Pendu Punjabi is not same as Gurmukhi Punjabi. Where ever a Gurmukhi word is one way and Pendu Punjabi is one way, we should always chose to pronounce it in the proper Gurmukhi way because that is how our Gurus pronounced it. Furthermore, Punjabi changes over the years. Just read Punjabi as written by Bhai Sahib Bhai Vir Singh Jee in his books who was also a native Amritsari and father of modern Punjabi literature. Just see the difference between his language and today's Punjabi. So many words are not even used today and many words are differently pronounced. Evolution of language.

Today's boli is not necessarily the same boli spoken during Guru Jee's period.

Brother just give reference to one person today who in day to day speaks the same punjabi as our great Guru sahibs did. Answer is none, natural evolution from the same period no one speaks the same English, not even the queen of England! Btw no such thing as vocal Gurmukhi punjabi, that is literal.

Go back to school and take reading classes. After that go and read what I had written in that rotten bhatra post. And why do you have bring caste in every thread. When you will learn reading from school you will perhaps understand that Punjabi language is being discussed here.

I graduated with masters over 10 years ago -check my linkedin ? Re read the thread where is your anti caste post? All other threads you do post your anti caste message, but where is in this one? BTW are you still a student? Or are you a father of two school age kids?

    • 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.
