Bhagat Puran Singh Ji was way ahead their time.  As well as their seva for the vulnerable and people with disabilities,  Bhagat Ji was also very forward thinking when writing articles about promoting organic farming and also the role of intense farming methods, which would eventually disturb the water table and have major impact on health in the future.  This was at time when the green revolution had just begun and no one even thought of what damage could be done in the future.

I also remember reading about when Bhagat Puran Singh Ji visited Harmandir Sahib  sometime in the 80’s.  Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale had heard the news that Bhagat Puran Singh was on their way towards Darbar Sahib and went personally to greet Bhagat Ji.  The story goes  Sant Jarnail Singh said he would like to carry Bhagat Puran Singh Ji down the steps to the Harmandir Sahib Parkarama on his back.  Bhagat Puran Singh Ji questioned this act and Sant Ji replied that Bhagat Puran Singh Ji was single handily carrying the weight of this immense seva for the most vulnerable in our community and the least Sant Ji could do was carry such a pure soul down towards the Harmandir.  

 

Where did you read this? I would love to read the original source.

    • 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.
