very good video. Its very good to see such an effort.

My simple questions would be - Is he doing this full-time?does he work or only prachar? why doesn't he join other sikh missionaries or prachraks rather than creating his own? How is he funding his travel to USA and Europe? how much work has he done in Punjab?

what were the benefits of doing street prachar in UK or USA?

As far as i know-

-Bhai sahib ji is doing all of this full time..He is only doing parchar..thats his work.

- Sikh missionary or previous organizations are only have specific skill set and set ideological driven which blocks the full eagle view of the panth. He seems to speak from full eagle view-vantage point in the panth which is more beneficial to all, compare to specific skill set organization doing it which has limited boundaries.

- He has recently start doing parchar in india-delhi, which is huge success..it was received with great reception by all..hope parchar goes punjab where its most needed as well.

- Awareness campaign of who sikhs are and what sikhism believe in to spread awareness/parchar to everyone.

Imo Basics of sikhI have greater vision, drive, ambition and integrity then most other groups.

He represents the sentiment of a far greater portion of western youth then any other group I know of.

Basics of sikhi are the only sikh parchar organisation that has my faith and support.

I don't know how many donors they have but it certainly isn't enough imo!

Unlike others he doesn't seem to have been struck by narcissism and felt the need to develop a loyal following. Very rare in this day and age where titles like Giani, Bhai Sahib, and Sant are thrown around like confetti.

And he seems to be reaching ppl who wouldn't usually learn about Sikhi. He isn't preaching to the choir like others but reaches a diverse audience of nonpunjabis, Punjabi youth who don't learn anything from Gurudwara,and via YouTube n social media too.basically he's trying to being a camp environment daily. However I wish he would focus more on making his visions reality. He has good ideas about how to run gurudware, create a Sikh army, sarbat khalsa , and 3 month basic training for all Sikhs. He has tried though I guess. Like the Tera Panth Vasse committee but it lost...

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
