WE NEED JATHEDARS LIKE AKALI BABA PHOOLA SINGH JI who even had that much bravery to whip Raja Ranjit Singh’s back for marrying a Muslim. Not like Gurbachan Singh who forgave Ram Rajeem 

Exactly and not caste based leaders as suggested by few. The problem is there is no one at present who can be our leader. This lack of able leadership is proving very dangerous for our Panth.

In my view , all of those who want to make a difference in sikhi should stand up and "lead" , lead in the sense. That means all of us , lead in the sense take small steps to reach the bigger goal :-

1. Start from the Gurudawaras , make one Rehat Maryada so that all Gurudawara should follow.

2. start learning from the Gurudawara , sangat is very powerful lets learn from them , setup courses,talks,sports events , martial arts etc and let the seva daar run them. Educate the young and old . Role this out to all the Gurudawaras. I believe we all have some quality , lets put it to use. Some will be good and education, some sports , some organizing etc...

3. Organisations like Basics of Sikhi , Sikh Federation , Sikh Youth who are doing great service and parchaar. Already have foundation set , we just need to get on board and learn from them so we can then teach others as well.

4. If we ask 90% of the time a person wont respond , sometimes we just need to be a bit more forceful.

From this , I believe a natural leader will evolve .

That's been tried and didn't work. It just added another 'modren' rehat to the existing ones. I think no, one, modern rehat is going to supercede all the older rehat traditions.

It's the people who have been alienated from, or separated from the Gurdwaras that we need to target. Sometimes it's because of a decision made by parents or grandparents, so it's not always the youngsters fault.

Why cant we all be leaders?? Ie instead of searching and waiting. If Each Sikh did something for the panth wouldnt that make a huge difference. One of the main things we can do is supporting organisations like basics of Sikhi. So they have funding to do more parchaar all over the world. I like their idea of building a visitor centre in Amritsar.
