The legal kirpan arrives: it is harmless and the sikh can take it to the belt


Recommended Posts

I read the translation, but can't really understand exactly what the kirpan will be like. Folding up? 

In any case, I suppose this is the best that Italian Sikhs can hope for given that they can't wear real kirpans for the foreseeable future. I suppose this is better than wearing half-inch "kirpans" attached to kanghas.

this has happened as a result of the pendu freshy lot from India - fighting over a missionary funded by RSS.

Thanks for promoting the unity of our people. Not.

FYI, I have been in the forefront of denouncing violence against missionaries, but I did not see the need to denigrate any portion of our Panth based on birthplace, as ordained by Guru Gobind Singh Ji ("you are henceforth residents of Anandpur Sahib"). Perhaps you think you know better than the Tenth Guru. Were you under the mistaken impression that they have blood in their veins, and you have milk?

How is it that you are a Brahmin, and I am of a low social status?

How is it that I am formed of blood, and you are made of milk? ||3||

Also FYI, Sikhs born in the West have also made some calls for violence against heretics.

Assuming that a given missionary is not an amritdhari in the true sense, does that excuse violence against him? If he's talking nonsense, either report it to the Gurdwara committee, and have him removed non-violently, or if the committee doesn't listen, just do the hard work of liasing with sangat members one at a time, until such time as we can form a majority for the next election.

for a sikh violence is the last option anyway but who is inviting without consulting local sangat? those pardhans/committees should be made to stand down by the law for distrurbing the peace and reputation of sikhi in the host country

who actually invites these provocative missionary speakers over - obviously a sizeable amount  of the sangat that support them.

These people are usually the new immigrants who want somekind of justification for not being amritdhari or keshadhari.

Watching the videos - these people use provocative language and naturally those panthic Sikhs are troubled by this and then react - unfortunately to take their kirpans out.

    • back then was waaaay different. ppl didn’t attend higher education or have much to do after the age of like… 13, lol. you’d have 13 year olds boys and girls that know how to do kethi, cook entire meals, etc    nowadays even 22 year olds are extremely immature and can be sheltered. the average person doesn’t know how to do anything except their 9-5 which they are probably half arsing as well.    
    • i live close by and yea all the gurudwarehs around these parts are run down it’s sad
    • what’s a rajput jatt sikh  you’re either jatt or you’re not jatt
    • 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.
