New thread..but i've seen some make comments on Panjab Radio...

Panjab Radio has been on our household ever since i can remember . Over the years not so as much. 

Also heard they not transparent about their financials but they deny they always show their accounts and nothing to hide. It cost 6/7 figs to keep it running

Thoughts?

I vaguely recall one of the presenters got beaten up for doing nindya of a mahapurash. The argument wasn't philosophically inaccurate, but he presented it in a rather personal and uncouth way, lol. 

Lol

I suppose I just hate the radio because, once a year the presenters sat there asking for money. It went on daily for 5 - 6 weeks! LITERALLY the whole show was about funds to keep radio running (I believe 100k kept it running for a year back in 2015)? 

Okay, other times, presenters were just being pure Desi folks and throwing out sad news or see a good news in negative light. What do you expect to hear on Vaisakhi day? "HAPPY VAISAKHI! Let's play some Punjabi music in this joyous occasion..." But Panjab Radio? "Happy Vaisakhi Ji... Pr appa lokh k karde aa? Aj Panjab wich aa kaand hogia... Sadi quam suthi py aa!" I mean why not leave such news for next day? ਸੜਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਰੇਡੀਓ, ਸੜੀ ਹੋਈ ਗੱਲਾ. 

Anyone listen to Sabras or any other Desi radio? Young, enthusiastic presenters, care-free, sohnia galla all the time. There is a time and day for elder presenters to come along and talk about pressing issues and matters relating back to our Homeland, India... Joyous occasion IS NOT that day. 

With the Grace of Akaal Purakh, the Bibi who listened to Panjab radio at work (hence I was forced to listen to it) got some senses smacked into her and she would listen to MP3 Kirtan in morning, Hindi songs later on instead of Panjab radio, FINALLY realising the kartoots of Panjab Radio and stopped listening to it.

    • 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.
