There are countless shows on the telly of India. That make India out as a vibrant and beatiful country full of culture, monuments and history. 

Yet having visited Dehli. 

my views are the following. 

Its filthy in most places

it smells badly and polluted, congested and cramped. The people are rude with no manners. Its boring and dull. Everyone seems miserable and in a bad mood. I rarely see people smiling or laughter. 

This is probably down to the harsh and brutal enviriment they live in. 

Is it the same all over? is punjab any different. 

 

Punjab is less polluted than Delhi, but I’d say it pretty much like what you described from my experience of visiting Punjab. People are rude, yes, no manners, yes. And yes yes yes to the rest. 

I wouldn’t even say it’s the environment they live in that makes them like that, as some families and people are nice, warm hearted people. I’d say it’s because of jealousy that’s embedded in them if those born abroad. I experienced it, for no reason from relatives and the people that know them also. But others seemed to be ok with me, if I asked them anything. I’d also say there is discrimination against those abroad too, but it’s done in a discreet way within relatives. 

The best thing is the historical places and Gurdwaras and there are good souls there. The people that have good relatives are lucky, as that’s hard to find nowadays. It’s changed from the last time I went. The pinds aren’t that friendly either, most people have gone abroad anyways and people stare a lot. 

It depends which area of Punjab you go to also, as we’ve got some relatives who are caring, but I never got to visit them as time was short when I went. I don’t want to go back, it’s put me off. It upset me very much unfortunately, whereas I was looking forward to meeting the relatives I visited. But I guess they don’t like bhole, simple people like me. Oh well, at least I learned something from it.

You havent seen poverty till you been to India 

Alot of apne go to punjab so dont see it as much but go to places like Delhi and its a big shock to the system

I wouldnt say its overrated, the amount of historical places there and things to see makes it worthwhile but they deffo need to do something about the poverty problem there. I would say the situation there is worse than africa  because i think most places in africa have access to clean water now

I always feel that India is a place where being a sociopath is the norm.

It is a country which prides itself on it's cunning. 

The country is a dump because no one cares, there is no value of life and they can be very indifferent to a lot of the problems.

There is no rule of law because everyone seems to be trying to cut corners all the time. 

This is the reason why it takes a big shittar or danda to keep everyone in line. It is the only thing these people seem to respond to.

We need to start some kind of "Sikh Cleaning Squad" or something that go around and clean up countries and make it less poluted and give solutions how to reduce rubbish etc.

Whos with me?

Sant Balbir Singh Seechewal is one step ahead of you.

    • 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.
