[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 92612, member: 189"] Antonia Jio, Gurfateh. "better" or not..its what we have got to live with under the circumstances. The Singh Sabha Lehr..subsequent liberation of Gurdwaras from the Nirmalas/Udassis Mahants...and restoration of the Sikh Rehat Maryada as per SGGS/Khalsa rather than Brahminical/Hindu ritualism..and creation of the SGPC/Akali Dal were steps in the right direction....BUT sadly stopped far short of the ideal. The Mahants were there becasue the British wanted the Sikhi/Gurmatt reduced to mere rituals so that the Sikhs would be more plaible/compliant rather than rebel...so when the Kaum forced the British to restore the Gurdwars to Sikhs..the British kept a few things back....1. The SGPC is "elected" by Sikh Voters..BUT the ELECTION PROCESS is under the Central Govt. Thus....the Late Gurcharan Singh Tohra remained SGPC President ofr nearly 20 odd Years simply because the GOVT refused on one pretext or other to schedule Elections of the SGPC !! Tohra came from a COMMUNIST BACKGROUND....and is the man most responsible for the DEGRADATION in the SGPC today....thus we can see the CENTRAL GOVT..British or Indian...seeks to CONTROL the Sikh Gurdwaras...any which way they can. The Tohra Administration saw the wholesale recruitment of "keshadharee atheists" into all levels opf the Gurdwara Management...also High posts were given to RADHA SOAMIS...who got control of the Sikh reference Library.....several valuable books and manuscripts went missing....over the decades.....even before the Wholesale destruction in 1984. All the time the SIKH KAUM was strong and steadfast to their SRM/SGGS..the Central Govt fought tooth and nail agaisnt the All India Gurdwara ACT....but NOW after 50 years of relentless undemining....that the situation is REVERSED...FAKE Brahminised Sikhs control virtually all Gurdwaras/Takhats/SGPC is entirely Corrupt....the Centr is bending over backwards to push for the All India Gurdwara ACT.....so as to UNIFORMALLY spread the ROT in each and every Gurdwara Managemnt......NOW its saner sikhs who demand that LOCAL SIKHS control their own Gurdwaras....like in Haryana..Himachal..Delhi..Bombay...and so on so that the entire edifice wont be rotten due to control from a rotten "centre" like the SGPC/ALL INdia SGPC !! There are voices being rasied in the Diaspora that Foreign Sikhs hwo have no representation in the SGPC and are under no obligation to Indian Laws..should formulate LOCAL Managements as per SRR/SGGS ONLY...and refuse to follow WRONG directions from SGPC/Akal Takhat etc...Thus the American Gurdwara Parbhandak Com..the Pakistan Gurdwara Parbhandak Com.. the Malaysian Gurdwaras Council..etc etc. The Historical situation is akin to what happened in Christianity around 1500. One faction that is still "Centrally Controlled" is the Catholic Church in Rome....while ALL the Progressive elements broke away and formed their own Churches. I would hope that the SGPC is REFORMED to its former GLORY..and ALL Gurdwaras WORLWIDE follow its LEAD....BUT if that is a pipe dream...then its better that "small pockets" of greenery remain and thrive among the Forest Fires sweeping...KOi Haria Boot rahio Ree says Nanak !!
