[QUOTE="Tejwant Singh, post: 189508, member: 138"] Arshi ji, Guru Fateh. I expected this kind of response from you with frothing, ire and anger which is a shame. I hope I am wrong but from your post it seems that you have some kind of guilty conscious about what I wrote. The fact remains that you never gave any direct answers to my questions in this thread when it started nor in the other one whose url is posted below. You skirted around them as a good rodeo rider and you kept on with your non answers in the same manner later on in the following thread where you avoided answering many of my questions. It is for all to see. This seems like your way when asked directly. Sikhi demands honesty and open-mindedness from us no matter how well layered our turbans and our fiftys (the mostly multi-layered head band under the turban which is not an under-turban) are. [url]http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/sikh-gurus/29587-guru-nanak-in-uganda-africa.html[/url] You write: I never said anything about your relationship with GNNSJ. You took that upon yourself which is a bit head scratching I must say and as mentioned above, it is your own guilty conscious for whatever reasons it may be. I only made the comparison with the Kathavaachak from GNNSJ and yourself because he reminded me of you as we often do in our lives when we meet other people and find some similarities with someone else we have also met. This is a natural human trait. Or do you claim of being absent of this human trait? Arshi ji, here one can see the glimpse of your ire that you try to camouflage it behind your sort of kind words. If we were teenagers, which we are not, then I would understand your using the phrase “some what mischievous”. At this level of discussion we stoop ourselves to a very low level which is not a mature thing from a person of your claibre and ability. It is your mind playing these games with you and you seem to blame others for that, which is a shame. Arshi Ji, this is not what you said in our following interaction. Why this double speak? Arshi ji, I have no idea why you feel the need to defend yourself time and time again when I never said you had any connections with GNNSJ. Why this guilty feeling of some sort, I fail to understand that. Thanks for proving my point. It is HIS popularity which has nothing to do with Sikhi. If we as Sikhs try to emulate even little of what our Gurus did, we will find out that they were against any popularity but to the contrary. This is why they never self-promoted themselves with self portraits or with any fancy titles. They rather gave themselves numbers not any titles such as Faith Leaders as Mohinder Singh has written on his website. Is he your faith leader? I hope you respond to this important question. He is not mine for sure. Sikhi has no faith leader but all the cults do. The part you ignore for the reasons known to yourself. Here is what he calls himself on his website: Guru Nanak Nishkam Sewak Jatha Faith: Sikhism - Sikh Dharam [B]Faith Leader[/B](s): Bhai Sahib Dr. Mohinder Singh Ji [B]Management: Bhai Sahib Dr. Mohinder Singh Ji (Chairman)[/B] This is their website which talks about themselves:[url]http://www.birminghamfaithmap.org.uk...php?placeID=25[/url] So have many other Sikh trusts whose people are all sevadaars and none of them call themselves faith leaders which is a very important distinction in Sikhi. As mentioned before, only cults have that and all they care is about themselves and con the innocent in the name of Sikhi. GNNSJ is no different cult than Radasoamis and others who take advantage of Sikhi garb to fool others. Here are some examples of the real Sikh trusts: Satnaam Trust in BC Canada was the first to establish Khalsa Schools in BC and the schools rank number 10 among all the Schools. The same trust was responsible to open Khalsa Credit Union, the first of its kind in Canada. They have guest house for free for the visitors at Amritsar and supply books to 500 schools and give the salaries of the staffs of many Khalsa schools located in India along with their US affiliate called Nanak Parchar Sabha which organizes yearly Nagar Keertan in Los Angeles, have Birdh Ghar- home for the elderly, 500 students including adults are at their Sunday Punjabi/Gurmat School. The kids do Asa di Vaar every Sunday. They invited 300 families under privileged Christian families during Christmas, offered langar and gift packages. The same they did during Easter. They also have schools for free in India. But, yet all in the name of Sikhi, without any faith leader. Thanks for proving my point again. It is all about the faith leader himself and his cult which has nothing to do with Sikhi. Let me ask you another question. What did GNNSJ do during the Tsunamis in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and during the earth quakes in Haiti where other Sikh organisations like the Khalsa Aid, United Sikhs, Satnaam Trust, Nanak Prachar Sabha and many others spent months and some are still there doing seva? Let’s call a spade a spade. Gurmat values demand this from us. You are one funny person to say the least. In the same post you said above,[B] “and neither do I wish to judge it”[/B]. And here you are judging him. FYI, and I am sure you are aware of the fact which for the reasons known to you are ignoring it, Mohinder Singh, The Faith Leader IS the organisation. His only plans are to self promote himself from the very justifications given by you about him. Does your Sikhi dictate you to nominate him as your Faith Leader as well? Yes, and I stand by it because you have skirted around the questions in two threads that we interacted in a serious manner. In fact, I asked some questions about his organization to you in the same thread later on and you never responded to them. You can go through them again if you like especially about the women’s role and also eating meat which you called as a response as a contemporary thought which is totally untrue as mentioned by me because it is in the SRM which is as “contemporary” as it gets. On one side, you claim no connection with the cult GNNSJ and under the same breath you go to great lengths defending the cult as you did in the thread below.
