Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji KI fateh.

2nd July 2006 was the 400th Anniversary of the Establishment of the Akal Takhat by Guru hargobind Ji Sahib.

Not only was this HUGELY IMPORTANT step in Sikh history celebrated in a lukewarm manner by just holding a simple Akhand Paath in the Manji hall of Darbar sahib complex ( hundreds of akhand paaths go on here daily...) but the natics of the Politicians in control of our Gurdawras made a mockery of the Dignity and Maryada of the Akal takhat...by fighting, knocking off dastaars and brandishing naked swords at each other...
I can only repeat the call..... "O POLITICIANS...QUIT OUR GURDWARAS !!" as posted on the Front Page of the Saptahak / Rozana Spokesman.

Our Gurdwaras have become the POLITICAL STAGE for these {censored} to fignt thier petty battles. How FORTUNATE that we have SO MANY 300/400/500 SHATABDEES to Celebrate in our LIFE TIME....and how UNFORTUNATE that we have WASTED all of them on "petty political maneouvering by the GOLAK CHORS entrneched in our Gurdwaras..EACH "Shatabdee" has just been a means of wasting Golak Money on "Emphasising the POLITICIANS..and for their Personal GLORY...at the Recent 400 th Sri guru Arjun Ji Sahib Ji's Shatabdee in Taran taran..I saw More POSTERS of Badal and FAMILY ( son and wife) than posters on Guru Arjun Ji. IN fact More posters of GURU ARJUN JI were "TORN DOWN" by these people simply because they carried the words DGMC at the bottom !!!..

With Photos of NIHUNGS ( belongng to the Baba Harian Welan Wala among others) brandishing NAKED SWORDS INSIDE the Manji Sahib hall and in the PRESENCE of Sri guru garanth Sahib jee....how can we then turn around and tell the World that the SIKH SWORD/KIRPAN is NOT a WEAPON ?? That we be allowed to carry such on airplanes and all over ?? Isnt this a SAJASH to SABOTAGE the "campaign to allow Kirpans everyhwere " ?? It is..definitely it is. No one in his right mind will beleive us anymore....the evidence of "Sikh Violence" is too graphic !!! The Goras and others will just say..Come on Singh.you must be joking..you mean the Singhs slashing their swords in front of Guru Ji are just "playing" ?? and KNOCKING OFF another Singh's DASTAAR in front of Gur Ji is also a joke only ?? Then WHY you people get so angry if a Customs officer asks you to just remove your dastaar for small check up ??

And how quickly the Five " High Priests".... found fault with one party and sacntioned them....the sad episode of the SGPC NOT INVITING Prof Darshan Singh to its shatabdee stages and then crying "foul" when he attended the Govt Stage purely as Kirtaniya...and the calls to the FIVE to "excommunicate" the Ex'Jathedar for attending that Stage as Ragi is being heard all over...NO one in his right mind will beleive that the Five are Neutral and Panthic..they also have their own Dharra...

Dharam Pankh kar udriya..Guru nanank Ji in Asa Dee Vaar.....how TRUE. Guru Ji Please come and save us from ourselves.... SIKHI nu SIKHAAN KOLON BACHAO...SAVE SIKHI from the SIKHS....especially those sitting on its highest THRONES....

Sri Guru Hargobind Ji was on the Gurgadee of Satguru Nanak Ji for 38 years... the LONGEST of any Guru except the Founding aad Guru - Nanak ji Sahib. Guru Hargobind Ji's Father was Shaheed, His Son Guru Teg bahadur was Shaheed....and His Grand-son Guru Gobind Singh Ji was Sarbans Daani. ..entire family shaheed !!

After the Shahedee of Guru Arjun Ji, Guur hargobind Ji put on the Twin Swords of Miri and PIRI and put the Sikh kaum on a New Footing and ESTABLISHED the Akal takhat right in front of Darbaar Sahib Established by His father Guru Arjun Ji and and Grandfather Guru Ramdass Ji Sahib. This event of the Formation of the Akal Takhat is of such monumental proportions in Sikh history that it is often called the Turning Point or Corner stone or Milestone.

How then did the SIKH KAUM celebrate the 400th Shatabdee of this Turning Point in Sikh history....by a relatively LOW KEY simple Akahnd Paath over just three days...in a place where hundreds of such Akhand Paaths go on all the time.

In 1984 some POLITICIANS conspired to smash down the "physical Building" of the Akal Takhat....and this time it seems these same politicians conspired to Smash Down the Very PRINCIPLES of Akal Takhat...by staging the exact same drama as in 1984. The Building of AKal Takhat could be rebuilt..in fact it was twice over..BUT this Latest ATTACK on the Basic Principles, the Dignity and Maryada and SUPREMACY of Akal takhat will be very difficult to rebuild. 1984 pictures of the Army attack on Akal takhat splashed around the world to prove Sikhs are terrorists..and violent...this time around similar pictures flashed around the World...SIKHS with DRAWN SWORDS hacking at each other, throwing each others dastaars on the Ground with complete DISREGARD to Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee's Prescence !! IS this any way to show the world the 400th Shatabdee of Akal Takhat ??

The 400th Shatabdee of Akal Takhat should have been such a huge affair...celebrated for at least ONE FULL YEAR...concurrently with the 400th Shatabdee of Sri guru Arjun Ji....a Truly UNIQUE opportunity to Show in a Practical manner the TWIN PRINCIPLES of MIRI and PIRI that showcase Sikhi and Gurmatt.

With deepest of anguish....

Guru Piyare Jatinder Singh jio,
Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh.

Instead of being the Happiest Day of the Millenium..this BLACK SUNDAY has turned out be the Blackest. We have let slip by in shame a wonderful opportunity...sad. I am sure all Siksh weep even more today than they did in post 1984.

I am just a humble sewak..writer and teacher..and i can write as you requested....but i am as helpless as everyone else...the Son of Punjab..Novelist Jaswant Singh Kanwal has written volumes...on how to get rid of such {censored} and bring back a prosperous Punjab..He is the Bleeding SOUL of today's Punjab....and he is equally helpless as the Boa constrictor has very effectively caught the sikhs in its mouth...Hunn taan Guru ji aap kirpa Karan..taan hee chhutkaara hovega..the water is now above the head....Berree paap bharee hai..aaj dubbeh ke kall dubbeh..dubbehegee ZAROOR.

This incident is very unfortunate.

On the other hand, I take this as a wounded opportunity having all the potential to awaken up sleeping souls to drive the 'kalanks' away from the gurudwaras.

But then, when 84 couldnt awaken up and unite/rejuvenate the turbanned ones, hope is the only thing which is left out to look forward to.

I had to let this out, veero.

Regards, Arvind.

Dear Vijay deep

I am requesting again

" NO CASTEISM ON SIKH SITE "
"IT IS A SIN TO TALK OF CASTE ON A SIKH SITE."

YOU MAY POST SUCH REMARKS ON SITES OF RELIGION'S WHICH PRACTISE CASTE.


I shall have to next time write to the administrator if you deraograte any sikh for his caste.

I shall request the administrator that such topics and remarks be banned on this site until and unless they are written for historical reason or for purpose of eradicating caste or it is for purpose of showing its evil aspect.

As Sikh we do not have caste.But these guys still have such qultiy of pagan background left in them.

Caste should be thrown in gutter then rather bringing in Gurudwara.

It happens in Gurudwara also as just to conceal thier caste based agends they nwill say no need to talk but in close room,they will talk of caste based agenda.

If it is so then why on earth do,Badal and Dhindsa each year attend Jaat Mahasabha Samelan.Jaats from world over come there.Including Mahinder Chaudhari ex PM of FIJI.

After becmoing Sikh inspite of repeated requests das never visited any such Samelan(seminars).

Either a person can be jatt/teli/white/black or Sikh.They have to chose one.Such things have ruined Arya Samaj in Haryan and we should not let such thing happen with Guru Panth.

sadhsangat ji ,
sat siri akal.
DID YOU EVER WONDERED THAT WHY , AFTER ALL ,THESE THINGS GO ON HAPPENING OVER AND OVER AGAIN ?
EVER WONDERED , THAT ALL THIS IS HAPPENING DUE TO RELIGIOUS STEREOISM ?
LACK OF SINCERETY IN RELIGIOUS AFFAIRS WHICH SHOULD HAVE STARTED FROM INDIVIDUAL LEVEL HAS GIVEN RISE TO SUCH SYCOPHANTS WHO ALWAYS USED GURUDAWARAS FOR THEIR SELFISH INTERESTS , WHO CREATED GURUDAWARA S U D H A R COMMITTIES ETC. DID WE EVER STOP TO THINK THAT WHO NEEDED SUDHAR ? US OR GURUDAWARAS - WHERE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE RECTIFIED NOT OTHER WAY AROUND ?
