Kartarpur Sahib videos

The Pakistani government seem to be pulling off some master strokes.

They understand very well the power of Sikh tourism. 

First with Nankana Sahib and now with Kartarpur. 

The question is other than the puppi-jhappi what are the benefits for Pakistan?

What are the long term goals from Pakistan, is it a big 2 fingers up towards India?

It seems clear to me that Pakistan are clearly using Sikhs to help develop the infrastructure in their country. It seems that the Sikh diaspora already is providing more impetus to their economy than the Pakistani diaspora. 

What is very interesting to me was the tens of thousands of people at Nankana Sahib and as I looked closer at the crowds they cannot all be Sikh, I suspect the vast majority were local muslims. 

And the first thought that cropped into my head was "Ripe for Sikhi!"

iv seen videos as well and the a big number of the sangat seem to be local muslims. They call Guru Nanak Dev ji   Baba Guru Nanak. A lot of the local muslims do a lot of sewa in these gurdware.

When i went Hazur Sahib i saw a lot of local muslim women at Hazur sahib, they were burkha but when they enter the gurdwara they lift the face covering. we were really surprised so we asked the local driver that we hired and he said a lot of local muslims come to Hazur sahib. 

I think its 2 fingers up to india and also local business are making lots of money. Im sure there is some other reason too which will probably become more clear in the future

A day after the corridor opened a muslim guy at work hugged me and shook my hand lol     he said he dont like hindus because they kill muslims and that they believe in lots of gods and that sikhs and muslims believe in one god.     He then started talking about mughals and said that mughals did a lot of wrong with sikhs but that god is looking  etc  was very genuine  had his hand on his heart the whole time.

Didn't Guru Gobind Singh Ji teach us to not trust a Muslim's oath?

Sikhs and Muslims may believe in One God but they are worlds apart.

It's like comparing a pizza pop to a real pizza. Cheap knock-off. Lol

Hindutva is on the rise in India.

The Ayodya site has been awarded to the Hindus and Article 370 has been gotten rid off in Jammu Kashmir with it being split into two.

These are two big steps that have been achieved.

First step is that with Ayodya being settled the Ram temple can be built and it means for the hindu that a perceived injustice meted out to them has been overcome. 

The second step with Jammu Kashmir is that non Kashmiris can settle there now and turn it into a non muslim majority. In reality it was the Kashmir Valley that is problem for India.

Jammu is mainly hindu with a large muslim minority and Ladakh is mainly buddhist with a large Shia minority. 

It will be interesting what would be the next steps.

The Pakistani elite are probably very aware that it is going to be even more difficult for them to send their Jihadis over.

I think at some level they are leveraging our emotional attachment to our historic sites. By creating these corridors is a way to split our loyalties. It seems they are looking for some soft spots to exploit. 

I think that Sikhi in the coming years MAY become the stabilising force on the subcontinent.

Check this tweet:

During this summer The Sikh Community in the UK Pledged to Invest £500 Million Into Pakistan.
Sikh businessmen around the globe will invest millions of pounds to promote religious tourism in Pakistan.

#GNGST #Gurdwara #GuruNanakSewaTrust #NaamJapo #KirtKaro #VandChhako #Sikh https://t.co/Z6ZgL7bghE

If these businessmen spent even 1 per cent on the 1984 widows, how much good can be done.

Money has never been a problem, the allocation has

    • 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.
