[QUOTE="Ambarsaria, post: 194106, member: 14194"] Let us think logically and review the following, [LIST] [*]When Guru Teg Bahadur ji decided to sacrifice, why was not that equivalent to suicide other than that someone else cut your head off when you knew that is what will happen? [*]When two elder Sahibzade went to fight against all odds and died who would not have thought that they were sacrificing self. Isn't sacrificing equivalent to an action of premeditated death? [*]When Satwant Singh killed Indira ji in the presence of other guards was there any doubt that he will be killed and was in no illusion of self sacrifice in a belief? [*]When Sant Fateh Singh in the 60s built fire ovens on four corners of the roof of Akal Takht to burn himself alive, was that not planned suicide? [LIST] [*]It was funny as we in our village looked up towards Darbar Sahib to see smoke to rise knowing full well in our hearts that it was a gimmick and sign of terrible leadership posturing. [/LIST] [*]Master Tara Singh did lot of fasts and could have died in any one of those during the ill fated and destructive Punjabi Suba movement. That was the beginning of the end of a respectable place of living for Sikhs as was Punjab at that time. The slide he started never stopped and has accelerated to the garbage we see in Punjab today.:hopmad::hopmad: [/LIST] Fundamental issue is that our leadership is so impotent and useless that they refuse to take up honest and pious causes and are just there to posture and exploit. Very very sad state of affairs indeed. Why should individual Sikhs be driven to desperate measures while the fat cats live in luxury and protection :soccersingh:. That reminds me :doh:what happened to the Hondh Chillar express investigation launched by the SGPC.
