fact is the majority of the law is inherited from angrez they changed very little thus hindu ...and stupid sloganeering such Hindu Hindi Hindusthan

Well, yes, it is true that when India transition away from British control, the law was not changed suddenly (such as the law on contracts, negotiable instruments, societies, companies, the Indian Penal Code, etc.).

But the Constitution of India was not "inherited from angrez". It was created by Hindus, and they specifically use the term "Hindu" in regards to Hindu religion in the Constitution.

@ipledgeblue, waiting for your response to my post above, bro.

This is what the rss don't want us to know, the hindu population is losing its will to expand (much like us right now) and their fertility plummets. Our muslim freinds on the other hand have the energy to want to spread so they keep pumping out babies (though their rate is slowing down as well). Our kaum should definitely start having at least 3 kids a family.

Having multiple kids is not the answer at all, all it does is lead to worse living standards and poverty. Are there enough jobs to go around in India for all of these extra kids? The answer is no.

2 kids per woman is enough to maintain a population and in a third world country the last thing people need is more people when resources and land are limited.

You will find that muslims are the poorest and least educated people in India and a lot of that is due to their rapid breeding and going to school in madrassas. Having said that even they are having fewer kids nowadays.

India made a massive blunder in not having population control in the 1950s and 1960s when people were having an average of 5 kids. When India got independence in 1947 the population was 350 million and now it is 1.2 billion! Talk about a massive blunder on the government's part!

Right now the birth rate per Hindu woman is 2.1, for Sikhs it's 1.6, Muslims it is 2.6 and Christians it is 2.

A low birthrate and an extremely poor sex ratio really doesn't look good for Sikhs in the future. Sikhs really need to put an end to female foeticide and get better education. The literacy rate is only 75%.

As for Hindus treating Dalits badly, do you think Sikhs are any better? Ravidas Sikhs are moving away from Sikhism due to the rampant casteism found amongst Sikhs, you know it's true.

Ambedkar wrote the human rights related stuff, however it is not his work alone, there were instances where he refused to do INC's bidding and they replaced him with others willing to draft up certains sections . Of course the law he studied was American and United Kingdom laws that would have coloured his ideas e.g. working hours, women's rights etc . Ambedkar did not agree with many parts of the constitution and even said he would burn it .

Given the thought processes of the man I suspect section 25 is not one of his penned ideas as it was encroachies on freedom of every man, woman and child should have to self-identity ...he was just used a convenient scapegoat just as the RSS use a dalit today to say look see we care about all Indians not just Brahmins we have a Dalit as President . They learnt well from Congress who used Zail Singh and Later Manmohan Singh and even to disguise their true motives.

Firstly, when I go to Punjab the average Sikh has 2 kids or more.

I don't know how they come to this 1.6 fertility rate figure. I dispute that figure.

Secondly, even though the muslim fertility rate is coming down (and that is due to them educating their women), even educated Muslim families still have higher fertility rates than the rest of the population. 

Thirdly,  I dispute the fact that Ravidassia are "oppressed " . If Dalits behaved like Ravidassia they would open their own temples and not even bother with the cash and prizes they receive from christian missionaries.  If anything Ravidassia are empowered. Nobody has stopped a Ravidassia going to a Gurdwara and do stuff that a normal sangat member does. Where their issue is with the power grab issues that a tiny minority within their community want. 

Like all politics. 

I can see where the 1.6 comes from. A lot of Sikh women go abroad to marry NRI Sikhs, leaving less women behind. 

The whole fertility rate of Punjab is 1.6, so it's not only the Sikhs who are having less kids, even the Punjabi Hindus. 

Punjab is a relatively more affluent state so people may be having less kids in general, whereas in places like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar etc people have more and this is what props up the Hindu population.

Maybe due to the drink and drug culture in Punjab less people are getting married?

At the end of the day Khatri, Jat, Rajput and Ramgarhia Sikhs still look down on low caste people, it's changing with the younger generation but those who are 50 and above will use disgusting terms for low caste people. I have seen this in Punjab and here in the UK, even Amritdharis are guilty of this. If you are being treated badly and not being accepted by a group then obviously you will want to move away from that group, only a fool would stay. This is why Islam was able to get a foothold in India and also Christianity.

Meanwhile, bro, the average Hindu on the street, when asked what what religion/dharam/mazhab he belongs to will say "I am a Hindu". The term is used in the Constitution of India (Hindu religion).

If the basic law of the country uses the terminology of Hindu religion, why do you feel the need to object? It's like trying to be more Catholic than the Pope. The Sikhs, Muslims, or Christians did not impose the Constitution on the Hindus, the latter imposed it on the former.

Just wondering, how do you define "ism"?

the ism makes the geographical term into a religion.

with sikhi, the ism turns a dharmik panth into another colonial religion construct.

I think the hindu term has become more religion focussed these days, but it can still apply geographically, But hindustani is more relevant these days,

I have to disagree with the 1.6 because that would mean that Punjab has a fertility rate on par with western countries. 

There are also plenty of non NRI people getting married so I do not buy into that. There is no shortage of brides or bridegrooms with all the palaces and hotels telling us otherwise.

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.

Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
