When did Sikhs start going into decline? (BoS video)

But Sikhs dont know the difference between dasvandh and daan. Daan is out of daya for someone and their cause but dasvandh is only for the khalsa and the propogation of the khalsa panth. If i give my money to some cause like natural disaster or a hunger drive that has nothing to do with sikhs or sikhi that would be daan. Most sikhs will just keep giving to their money to any cause and think its dasvandh which is absolutely wrong. Sikhs can give daan if they want but they should know the difference.

And?

1 Oankar..gives birth to Daya....Daya gives birth Dharam...Khalsa Paanth is birthed to oversee and serve Dharam during Kalyugs for 1 Oankar.

It needs Daswandh to do so, because we're a self funded Fauj sent by God with no budget. 

Our operating costs, training costs, must be met so we can do our duty....of...Daya...and Dharam. 

No where in this is there an issue. 

The problem isn't we spend all the money on langar omgawd... it's we're sitting on our asses largely, not involved in Gurmat largely, doing <banned word filter activated> all largely. Saying our problem is we just aren't selfish enough ..

dasvandh is mandatory whereas daan is out of daya like you said. But Sikhs give their daan here and there and think their dasvandh duty is done.

Dasvandh is for the Khalsa Paanth, for Dharam Yudh, so who do we give it to exactly. I agree it's mandatory. The spgc? The Gurudwara that does <banned word filter activated> all?

This is a good discussion. Personally i feel the money we donate to Gurudwaras is not dasvandh. Most of the people who come to eat langar are rich fat sikhs. Anytime i go to Gurudwara i feel ashamed by how unhealthy and unfit most Sikhs are. Moreover the langar is usually unhealthy food like samosa and what not. If the donated money is used for giving langar to poor and teaching them Sikhi at the same time it can be called dasvandh but Khalsa aid will use the donated money to buy qurans and bibles . What a joke. If the Gurudwara uses the money to open up a space where Sikhs can come and train then yes it is daswandh. Even some charities who help spread teachings of Sikhi and build houses for poor Sikhs , giving to them is dasvandh.

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
