[QUOTE="roopk, post: 55259, member: 4845"] Thanks Vikram ji for your candid reply. Why are sikhs running to Canada, US and Uk will have to be studied. But they are far away from their roots which are in India and moreso in Punjab. The net result is the fall in sikhi value. Visit the site Of sikhnet and see for yourself as to how sikhs find themselves lost in the alien cultures. Americans are learning sikhi and teaching us the same. Look at the books published in US on sikhi. I think they would be much more than the books published in India. It is good that sikhi values are recognised but not many people become sikhs. Infact the population of sikhs have shown a decline during the last two years. Is it the growth of a religion.If the outflow or brain drain continues it is likely to shatter the Indian youth which is feeling more disillusioned on account of the changed values in the west which he is trying to ape. Do you think sikh parents are a happy lot. Barring a few almost all of NRIs do repent that their kids are not following 5ks of sikhi. I think there should be a balance netween what one wants .If one wants money one should be in the west and earn money and come back to enjoy that one has earned. If one settles out there I think it is a sin so far as the religion is concerned. NRIs also do not practice 'daswand'. Do not tell me that they do. It is not a freedom that you enjoy at the cost of the religion that you are born into.There are lots of things that one can do in India with half or even less resources herein India in the HOME of SIKHI and the Home of Gurus. Have you all forgotten your brothers and sisters who had seen 1984 and are still to get the compensation from Indian Government. Thousands of widows have already died and many have become a psychic cases beyond rectification. It is no use singing tunes while sitting in the west and also praise the sikhi. Sikhi goes to hell the time you decide to move out, barring few exceptions.A one man's gain is the loss of a dozen in India. Your simplistic model is not appreciated. All those who have made alien land as their abode are first class traitors.It is the way we se it and think. They owe a lot to sikhi and to their brothers and sisters in India. What If the name of Punjab is not Khalistan ,it is still my home.Let Mr Chauhan sing songs and be dead while singing songs for khalistan. He enjoyed his life in US and Canada.
