A big problem of " poor Panjabis " going to Middle east for slave labour.

       A big story was going on this yr about thousands of Panjabis workers in Iraq stuck or getting kidnapped and killed by ISIS. The biggest thing I was surprised about was the NUMBERS of Panjabis who were in the middle east . We all know Pakistanis all love going to middle east to clean toilets of the desert donkeys with oil money, infact most of the south asians in Middle east are south asian muslims. I went to Dubai in Jan this yr [ my mom's sister lives there ]. Dubai has a huge indian community, it practically felt like little india. But this is about laborers from India who go to these places and suffer horribly. There was another story of a Panjabi Sikh women who went to Saudi Arabia and was inslaved. All of these stories have the same common theme, these dense indians always get bamboozled by the travel agents and are told there is a lot of work in these countries and a lot of money to be made, and without thinking they end going to the middle east only to have their passports taken away by the dirty arabs and become slaves. In Qatar , thousands of indian laborers have died since building infastructure over there. They're made to live in cramped filthy living spaces and generally are forced to work 15 hrs a day. So, is the work situation in India soo bad that these people would rather go the middle east and get enslaved.

    • Hi All, I havent been on this forum for a while but I thought id give it a try again as it helped me through some rough times earlier in my life. I wanted to seek for guidance on sikhi and marriage ... I noticed a post earlier on sanjog etc. and it got me thinking about my own life and marriage. For context, I have been married 3 years and things are not working out. When we met, I looked in to sanjog alot and it felt like it was written. However, as these years have gone by its become apparent that we no longer align with each other and our marriage is struggling. We dont seem to understand each other and things have fallen apart. We are at a stage now where separation/divorce is looking like the best option. Neither of us are happy and whilst we have tried to work things through in many different ways, after 3 years we have drifted away. What are the sikh views on this? is it written if we decide that we no longer serve each other? or is that a sin and should I continue to work at it? my issue at the moment is that it is draining me. I feel withdrawn from everything due to things going on between us including sikhi and going to the gurdwara.  Breaks my heart to even be writing this but I do think if we are both not happy and cant see a way of being happy then what is the point in continuing? Or should I be continuing and is it paap if we dont honour our laavan? if that is the case, what does sikhi say about marriage? how do I continue knowing everyday I feel the way I do?   Thanks

    • I'll use this place as my spiritual journal so if anyone wants to join then feel free to! I'm not sure if this could be classed as an experience but last week (or 2 weeks ago), I felt my saliva to be sweet however I lost it after a week. I don't really regret it though, if I lost it then it's Hukam Another point, I feel my concentration to be very good for a while, I can focus on the void for a longer period of time than I could before. I also feel a lot more Anand, it's all Guru di kirpa
