Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

I think it depends on which constituency you are in. I think there is a Sikh bibi who wears Keski standing for the Lib dems in Heston, so if any of you live there I think you should seriously consider voting for her. Wouldn't it be great if for once we get a proper Singh or Singhni into parliament rather then the usual indian workers association / ex communist monay who only put 'singh' in their name when they need your votes and then lick the indian government's boots.

I live in Ealing-Southall and the present MP is a waste of space. He's only good at getting behzti ( not the play ) from his leadership, his only claim to ever being in the news was when the labour party tried to get him to move from his usual seat in the house which was a few rows being Tony Blair and put a young good looking woman MP in his seat so that Tony Blair would look good!!

Last time around (2001) there were two other Sikhs ( monay though ) who stood so that made the election interesting. It would be great if some party put up a Singh or Singhni they would get my vote even if it was the bhang party

Gurfateh!!

Labour MP Khalid Mahmood (Perry Barr, Birmingham). Was in full support of the Sikhs during the whole "behzti" controversy.

Even though he's Muslim nothing wrong with voting for him :TH:

Unfortunatly in most placest there isn't an option of voting for a Singh/Singhni so choose who you think would stand up for Sikhi.

Gurfateh!!

I think it was also Khalid Mahmood who attended the 1984 candlelight vigil in B'ham if I remember correctly- he seemed quite genuine, but then politicians always do. I take back some of my stance on the Liberals- vote Satnam Kaur Khalsa- I believe she is married to "the man in blue" who writes in the Sikh Times (UK)- I think this is someone who truly will do her best not only for the Sikh community, but all other constituents too.

    • Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.
    • You're confusing two different things: One is merely adding starch to a turban to get a certain feel to the fabric. The other is tying your turban once and taking it off like a hat. It is this that people have a problem with. What's wrong with it is that Rehit says to tie your turban afresh every time. If you ask, "Where is that written?", it's written in Bhai Nand Lal ji's Rehitnama. @ipledgeblue didn't just make it up. Umm, no, bro. We're not evangelical Christians like President George W Bush of the US claiming to "talk to God" who told him to invade Iraq. "Speaking to him directly" basically ends up being doing whatever you feel like with the excuse that Guru ji told you to do it. If you still want to take your turban off like a hat, feel free to do so, but don't claim that it's Rehit.
    • You don't need to wear either a pag or dumalla in the gym. You can simply wear a meter or 1.5m small turban (gol pagg or round turban). It doesn't come off.
    • The reason you don't see anything wrong with it is because like a fish in water, you grew up in Western culture and imbibed it fully. It's very difficult to for parents to inculcate traditional culture while in the West. The reason there is a problem is because a kiss between a man and wife is a sexual act (I didn't say it's coitus, but it's still sexual.) By contrast a kiss between a mother and a child, for example, is not sexual. And in our culture, sexual acts are not allowed in public. Goras do allow it. And that's also the reason they have gay pride parades now with people walking around naked with children in attendance and so forth.
