Hey guys, PLEASE listen to this AMAZING song, to which i was introduced to by 1 of my cousins recently, so credit to him.

Since there has been several discussion in the past week about british colonisation in panjab and india as a whole on this forum, and talks of ww1, ww2, anglo sikh wars etc. I thought it wud be fitting to present this video, n show the parallells of wat "intelligence" and barbaric acts were committed on black/african ppl, and the tactics used to conquer s.asia. The song is by a very very intelligent and profound british rapper called 'Akala'. I'll post the lyrics up as well, as id imagine the non-british posters on here, wont understand everything that is said in the song. The pictures in the video, also help to understand fully the message conveyed here by akala.

BTW, ' Maangamizi', is a Swahili expression which translates as Destruction.

The lyrics to this superb song, can be found here. http://genius.com/Akala-maangamizi-lyrics

Forget the song. Akaala at his best was on Frankie Boyle's Election Special earlier this year. One of the best pieces of television in years.

However, I have to tell those of you that think he has anti-islamic credentials that he most certainly does not. The man is a champion of the rights of all non-white people and as such has been an outspoken champion of defending Muslims from anti-islamic hate.

Anyway, here he is at his very best on Frankie Boyle's show. Particularly love the way he points out the truth about Australia. How our government is citing their 'points based' system as the example to follow in immigration. Akaala points out how nobody should ever be following Australia as an example for anything non-racist when only 30 years ago Australia didn't even recognise the black man as a human being. According to Australia, his rights were to be found under the Flora and Fauna Act !!!

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      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

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      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!!

      Is suraj parkash right? is it a reliable source of info?

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.
