Sikh Sangat from Punjab (India) living abroad should make regular visits to Punjab.

This way they stay in touch with Sikh culture.

Visit the Gurdware and see Sikh heritage. There’s 5 Takhats to see.

Also a chance to speak in Punjabi with everybody.

I have been 7 times myself and love it.

Its definitely a experience going to punjab.  Iv been to all takht sahibs apart from takht Patna sahib.  I want to go to hemkund sahib. 

I also wanna go rakab ganj sahib delhi and paonta sahib.

Going Harmandir sahib and hazur sahib are experiences that you will never forget and once you have been your soul will keep wanting to take you back.  they truly are sachkhand on earth.

Apart from that the punjabi countryside is beautiful   and the sunset and sunrise are breathtaking. 

Hearing the granthi read japji sahib at amrit vela through the gurdwara speakers while you are still tucked in bed is really nice, one of the best things about your visit actually.  Hearing bani being read out loud in the pind through the speakers sounds amazing  especially early in the mornings when it's still dark. 

Downside is the corruption.  Though some people are bad and take advantage some people are really nice and helpful    when you get lost while travelling and ask one person for help  10 people will come towards you all wanting to give directions lol. 

Our car broke down in the middle of the fields and this grandad with his grandson who were working in their fields came to us and started fixing our car for us   grandad even told his grandson to go back to their house and get the tractor to pull the car all the way to our our pind if needed. 

People from cities tend to be rude and not wanting to help iv noticed!

Punjab is developing fast. Better roads, transport and hotels.

The tourism industry is booming in India as well as Punjab.

The Amritsar airport is greatly developed  compared to 2 decades ago. Many flights are choosing to fly from there.

Yet people are leaving in their droves..

Punjab will in another 10-20 years time become a hindu majority . Sikhs will become a minority (already are if you count only turbaned ones) in the last place they're a majority in . The hard-won achievements of punjabi suba movement of 1966 will all be erased.

We need to concentrate on rural areas. The cities are infested with Hindus.

Yeah, and certain fudhus alienating and abusing Mazbhis in the pends, to the point of them converting to other faiths or trying to start their own ones really helps.......

    • 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.
