Crash Hero Praised Worldwide

He could have taken his top of but that wouldn't have generated any facebook likes. Taking his pag off was unnecessary. I think this Singh is a lalu and I would have slapped him if i was there. The west are ofcourse loving this news because they see a Sikh 'breaking his religion'.

Does it matter what others think? The guy did the right thing by attending to someone who needed help. I dont think he cared for fame or for anyones balle balle.

You would have not slapped anyone. Stop acting hard and being an ignorant person. It was a time of emergency. Good on the Singh for acting quick and doing what is NEEDED.

I have heard from Sikh elders who have fought in the 1971 indo pak war that when Sikh soldiers liberated Bangladesh, many times they would find Bangladeshi women in rape camps without cloths. In many instances Sikh soldiers would take off their Turbans and give it to the women to cover up their bodies. It is estimated that 300,000 Bangladeshi women were raped by Pakistani soldiers.

Although this is unrelated to the topic but it is sort of related since a Turban was used in helping someone.

Bro u stole my thunder, as i was gona use that as an example. The story i read/heard was, that a New York journo covering the war asked a sikh army man y he took off his pagh n covered the naked raped woman, as muslims r apprntly ur enemies? He replied to save this womens honour n that we see all humans as equals. The raped women also replied, it was these non-muslims who have helped us, n "our own" muslims (pak soldiers) who raped us.

Not really feeling the "broke a religious protocol" thing. I wish people understood that daya and serving others is itself the basis of Sikhi, not something separate to it which this Singh attended to.

Doesn't change one fact. Removal of his dastar was absolutely UNECESSARY.

Brahmgiani Sant Baba Nand Singh Ji once removed the dastaar he wore over his keski and laid it out on the ground which Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, being borne aloft on the head of a Sikh, was going to pass over.

That may also be said to have been unnecessary, but it was a beautiful sentiment and showed his pyaar.

Harman Singh Ji's action was very much the same, it showed his love for humankind.

Right whenever Guru Granth Sahib Ji are passing over I will remove my pag to show my respect. Good one.

What he did was on spur of the moment, in those circumstances you do not tend to do think but do things by instinct. If he did what he did to help save a life I am sure Maharaj ji would understand.

We do not want to think like what happened in Saudi Arabia when there was a fire in a girl's school but they wouldn't rescue them because the girls were not niqab covered.

Can you tell me which part of removing his dastar helped to save that boys life? It's all sensationalised hype,

He felt it was the right thing to do at the time, you do not always think in a logical manner in those situations. We were not there in that situation to warrant that question of how the dastar saved the boys life.

That question is absolutely warranted since only then can removal of his dastar be justified. Look at the pictures - it is being used as a mere cushion. That does not justify removing his pag and certainly would not save the boys life.

It was necessary due to the time and circumstance. He acted swiftly and made split second decisions. He saw a human hurt and did what he knew how to do. This is a slap in the face of those Sikhs who only see the dastar as some fashion statement. Shows to others wearing a dastar is not only about looking the part, but walking the walk. One lesson he could take away from it is to tie a keski underneath so his head does not become bare in public. Yet, he still did the right thing here.
