There is very little punjabi wisdom beyond the level of common decency worth mentioning

Seems to be a bit puzzling why you self-hate Punjabi culture and society, a culture and society in which our Gurus were born in, lived in, and accepted, except for specified Hindu beliefs such as janeu and prohibition on widow remarriage.

Guru ji also rejected the Punjabi culture of their time which included purdah/ghoondh kadna, kuddi maarna , Sutak and other pollution ideas associated with normal female biological functions, cursing or beating women , end of pati parmeshwar attitude towards human husband, end of superstitious beliefs which made women's lives hell, promoting women as points of spiritual knowledge as opposed to standard idea of destroyers of faiths , ending caste based segregation in a time when people would be killed for offending the system. 

I don't hate Punjab just this constant dragging backwards into hindu mat of our people when Guru Sahiban gave us freedom and wisdom to follow which is light years ahead of even Western mat.

The stuff you mentioned is mostly stuff with specific sanction in Hindu society specifically overturned by Guru Sahib. I'm just pushing back the Punjabi-hatred (self-hatred) of some of our people while simultaneously being unquestioning accepters of Western culture as just normal common sense.

I'd much rather stick to Guru ji's mat because it is the middle path , free from the pollution of SJW nutters/elite agendas of the west and the oppression of ancient tribalistic chauvanisms and misogyny of eastern faiths.

I would like to see a strong sikh literary/artistic rennaisance coming up but that is down to people seeing the true heart of punjab.

It seems that you're saying that something that Guru Sahib did would be something that we would emulate.

well if you are a sikh you would follow the path laid out, yes?Besides like the living examples illustrate following the other ways lead to so much destruction, hardship and losing the true focus on life's mission

So, friend, are you saying that once we adopt Sikhism, we have to dispense with all of the accumulated wisdom of the ages, and all that we possibly have to guide is is explicit injunctions of Gurbani, and anything not explicitly enjoined there we can do?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, if it conflicts with Gurmat it isn't right. A good example is in Punjab you can find some Amritdharis still practicing caste, it's not our, (Sikh), culture but rather their, (Punjabi), culture.

    • 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.
