Sikhism is Real Hinduism philosophy of Sat Jug. All Rishs Munis had unshorn hair and jura. 33 crore devtas all kept hair. All Sants were shasterdhari in previous yugas.

Thats like saying Sikhi is the real version of Christianity: Jesus kept hair and wore a turban.

Sikhi may have similarities with other paths but it is its own dharam:

ਦੁਹੂੰ ਪੰਥ ਮੈਂ ਕਪਟ ਵਿੱਦਯਾ ਚਲਾਨੀ ॥
dhuhoo(n) pa(n)th mai(n) kapaT vi'dhayaa chalaanee ||
Both religions (Hindu and Islam) are getting contaminated.

ਬਹੁੜ ਤੀਸਰਾ ਪੰਥ ਕੀਜੈ ਪਰਧਾਨੀ ॥
bahuR teesaraa pa(n)th keejai paradhaanee ||
Come and elevate a third religion (panth).

ਸਭਨ ਕਉ ਸਬਦ ਵਾਹਿ ਵਾਹਿ ਦ੍ਰਿੜਾਊਂ ॥
sabhan kau sabadh vaeh vaeh dhiraRaauoo(n) ||
To all, Wahe Wahe (Waheguru) shall be the word to meditate on.

ਕਰਹੁ ਖਾਲਸਾ ਪੰਥ ਤੀਸਰ ਪ੍ਰਵੇਸਾ ॥
karahu khaalasaa pa(n)th teesar pravesaa ||
Designate the third religion (panth) (different to the Hindu and Islam).

Agreed. Hinduism is contaminated, idol worships, some believe vishnu, some pray to shiva, some do some  hanky panky. Infact I do not consider modern Hinduism to be Hinduism and modern islam to be even close to Islam. 

Sikhism is the REAL dharam --- coming down from Sat Jug.

To respond to the original topic - In theory, yes Sikhi can be separated from Punjab, however many times we feel a connection due to our history. When we look at the significance of Punjab for us today, there is none except for "pilgrimages" 

Guru Sahib says the following about pilgrimages and spiritual growth:

http://sttm.co/s/21/182

ਤੀਰਥੁ ਤਪੁ ਦਇਆ ਦਤੁ ਦਾਨੁ ॥
teerath tap dhiaa dhat dhaan ||
Pilgrimages, austere discipline, compassion and charity

ਜੇ ਕੋ ਪਾਵੈ ਤਿਲ ਕਾ ਮਾਨੁ ॥
je ko paavai til kaa maan ||
these, by themselves, bring only an iota of merit.

http://sttm.co/s/165/2461

ਤੀਰਥ ਨਾਤਾ ਕਿਆ ਕਰੇ ਮਨ ਮਹਿ ਮੈਲੁ ਗੁਮਾਨੁ ॥
teerath naataa kiaa kare man meh mail gumaan ||
But what is the use of bathing at sacred shrines of pilgrimage, when the filth of stubborn pride is within the mind?

However, I would also want to have a connection to our culture and tradition of past and it is obviously plays an important role in our history as a panth.

I'm not quite sure of my position on this...

It's difficult to gain a firm grasp on how to view this issue. Gurbani and Gurmat in general  to a standpoint which runs contrary to any form of attachment to temporal vestments, i.e. attachment to and accumulation of land, kingdoms, etc., emphasising the transistory nature of the physical, and how none of that comes with us after death. Yet, Sikh history has indisputable moments where our spiritual and martial leaders NEEDED to descend from up high, as it were, and partake in the more-often-than-not base aspects of civilisation-building and protection.

Yeah, I know, "Saint-Soldier" but how is this philosophy applicable on a practical day-to-day basis in times of absolute crisis when we're under attack from all sides?

Are you thick ? This is our people's problem , we go over sentimental without realizing what is being said .

He's actually secular guy, and that's not what he wishes, that is what he apprehends. Look at his other tweets on farmers protest. At best, he's neutral 

that is a major fib, he supports the idea of akhand bharat that is not secular.

Dude Golden Temple Harmandar Sahib .. is sooo pavitar that even Devi Devtas go matha-tek there. ..... listen to Sant Maskeen Ji's katha and there are other asthaans. So No, Sikhi on mat-lok (planet Earth) cannot be separated from Bharat.

In reality, we only care for money , that's why there're protests now when we see possibility of losing lands, but there were just miniature protests compared to this during beadbi of GGS a few years back 

 

Miniature? You're forgetting social media was less prevalent then. Punjab was under lock down from all corners, Singhs were killed. It wasn't as big as what is happening today, but that can be summed up to social media.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
