I have always wondered how to implement a change in Golak reliance and the arguments for control of it ... no golak no power games/politics

just read this , made me smile

Very good step remember that most of the money gurdwaras make is probably from akhand path and weddings. We need to do our own akhand paths and not relay on Granthies and pathies.

First of all we need to remove the golak infront of Guru Ji and put it somewhere else. once the golak is moved we also need to take down these gold colored metal fences that are in some gurdwaras. here is a picture

Akhand Paths generate the most income for a Gurdwara. To really make a difference the Sangat should do its own Akhand Path as a family. This will greatly cut the amount of money a Gurdwara will get and the Gurdwara committes will have less money to waste.

I understood that the golak was purely for assisting the weak and poor , bheta of shahstars and horses was seperate for fauj, and aanach , dhallan , langar saman was also seperate .. We should insist that maximum should be spent on outreach and education minimum on maintenance and mortgages , this may put paid to the whole industry of building massive hangar like gurdwarey just for show weddings ...when normally minimal space is needed for day to day sangat

    • 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.
