Yesterday, the election for the President and other posts for Shri Durgyana temple was held. It is considered to be the biggest temple in Punjab. BJP leader and former minister Laxmi Kanta Chawla won the election andbecame the President of the Durgyana temple.

It is said that she has a good relationship with Aam Aadmi Party nowadays. Earlier, during Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal's visit to Amritsar, she met him. This month, she also met AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha.

Do these people do this fasting stuff because its fun or because they actually believe fasting will increase their husband's life because I know a sikh lady who used to do this karwachauth stuff with such fervour and then her husband passed away at a very young age. I don't understand are these people celebrating for fun or actually believe in it. Tbh if starving yourself for the entire day is your idea of fun i dont know what to think.

When your minority religion doesn't assert its identity and has a very unstable spiritual and cultural mooring, the larger and better established faiths with the greater infrastructure and socio-cultural reach will inevitably begin to attract stragglers. It's not unexpected.

messed up

We don't believe in this stuff and we're telling our people not to buy into their bs, nothing wrong with that.

I heard this katha! 😂 Giani Jaswant Singh was going in hard on everyone. He was giving the Muslim deras a hard time, too, speaking about how when he sees their functions on TV, he sees tonnes of Amritdhari Singhs at these functions. But, yes, there's a lot of anti-Karvachauth and anti-Rakhri katha around the relevant time of year for each festival. Someone needs to remind our people what our customs are, because I don't think the people remember.

Honestly, the only reason Sikh women my age celebrate rakhri is to rip their brothers and cousins off and get $$$. I don't get the need to celebrate it cause it's basically your brother protecting you, which means you're not able to take care of yourself.

Yes people actually believe in this. It's the same with the "Sikhs" who do murti pooja as well, they actually believe in seeking those devi devte for help. Why they believe in these things IDK really, but to question if it's genuine or not isn't really the right question to be asking.

This Karvachauth if I am correct got popularised from Indian Soap operas. 

I don't think anyone knew what it was.

It is completely anthethical to Sikhi. 

It provides no benefit.

What's the benefit in celebrating anything? Why do people celebrate their birthdays? To feel good, socialise, feel close to people? To show you care?

    • Gurfateh Sangat Ji,   Recently came across this GoFundMe for this Singh and his treatment. Let's contribute if we can.  https://www.gofundme.com/f/my-husband-needs-fund-for-his-cancer-treatment-?viewupdates=1&rcid=r01-173944584254-bf0b275700784313&utm_medium=email&utm_source=customer&utm_campaign=p_email%2B1137-update-supporters-v5b     Gurbar Akaaluhhh    
    • All 10 sikh gurus are Surya vanshi Jats. Bedi trehan bhalla and sodhi are descended from Surya vsnhi king Dasrath father of Sri ram, laxman, Bharat, and shatrugunah.  Sri ram birth lav and kush from whom bedi and sodhi come, Bharat bhalla, and laxman trehan guru angad dev jis gotra.  That's why the sikh gurus military capital aka Akal Takhat had Surya vanshi flags. Hari Mandir was also constructed after Babar destroyed Ram Mandir as a symbol that Ram Chanders legacy and descendants were still alive in kal yug and that the resistance to invaders was fully active.  The British created the sgpc to suppress this knowledge as they wanted to divide sikhism from its roots so they could divide and rule, as punjab was the last region that had not come under their pay check. False parchariks under the East India Comlany pay roll manufactured the divide between sikh and hindu when in fact they are the same thing. This divide eventually led to Operation Blue Star.    Bhul chuk maf karna.  Their original clan flag
    • Ik i'm a few (13) years late but basically: Get a single Mal-mal dastar (around 3-5 metres) and starch it. You just whisk 2 ladles of starch (Kershaw's, cornstarch or maida) with around 5 cups of water until it's completely smooth and mix it on low heat flame for around 20 mins until it goes clear and think like water. When this cools off, take a clean but damp turban and soak it into the starch and make sure you coat the whole dastar evenly You leave it out to hang dry in the sun/air. Once dry u can store it in a cool, dry place until you wanna tie it (for about 4 months) Take the dastar, sprinkle some water all throughout the turban to make it slightly wet and just soft enough to tie. Then you and another person hold the dastar at each end to make a stretched rectangle (two people holding one corner in each of their hands). Fold it in half width-wise 3 times. Tie the turban like this quite loosely. The starch will make it tighter as it dries BUT TIE IT STAIGHT ONTO YOUR HEAD. NO MINi-TURBAN BENEATH IT. JUST TIE YOUR FLATTENED JOORA ON TOP OF YOUR HEAD AND THE DASTAR DIRECTLY ON TOP Secure it with pins and wear it on your head until it has dried from the water you sprinkled before the pooni. After it has completely dried (give it around 3-4 hours just to make sure) you take it off your head DO NOT UNWRAP IT TAKE IT OFF IN IT'S SHAPE and the next time you need to wear you can just place it on your head over your flattened joora instead of tying this. You can do this for around 5 months after you first tied it until you have to ever tie it again.
    • I tie a Punjabi style dastar with starch. Why do people hate this so much? Once when I was tying my dastar my neck seized up and the apna doctor said staying in that position daily for more than 5 mins is dangerous. He recommended a starched pagg like his dad. And I respect my pagg more than my life. I put it on the top shelf of my cupboard whenever it isn't on my head, recite Waheguruji da naam whenever I am tying my joora, fifty and when i place the Dastar on my head and I mata thek and kiss  it before I do. And when I do tie it (every 4 months when the starch starts to weaken) I make sure that I pooni and tie it with much love and whilst reciting paath. I get that if someone treats their turban like a hat (eg: throwing it on the floor, cramping it or just disrespecting it) then this is unacceptable but just cos one puts their pagg on their head rather than tying it each time doesn't mean they treat it as such. (and let's be honest, starched or not we've all put our dad's pagg on our head like a hat when we were kids as a joke and meant no disrespect. Intention is everything). Ik Singhs who get angry tying their pagg and start doing maa/phen di gaaliyan, and when they take it off they just throw to the side and wait to tie it again next time. (Also, I'm from a Jat Sikh family so pls don't try to make this about "starched paggs are tarkhan/caste based" or anything stupid like that). PS: I do remember that stupidness in the 90s/early 2000s UK when Sikh men used to have a tiny starched paggs and were completely clean shaven or had a little goatee like Herbie Sahara/ Vijay from achanak. Now THAT was stupid and deserves all the hate but I just mean the concept of a starched dastar whether it's Punjabi Style, Kenyan style or whatever
