We'll have to see. If he wanted to he could have enjoyed his golden years but he clearly feels he has a higher purpose. He is not beholden to lobbyists like previous presidents.

It's quite interesting in that I was listening to the inauguration speech and that some of the political commentators depending on their biases saw it completely different. Some people saw that he was consistent in what he says what he was going to do, others say he was not being specific and vague and others have compared his speech to a Mussoloni speech, others say that he only spoke to the people who voted for him. He is not career politician but being a billionaire businessman he will understand how politics work since he has had to persuade/influence politicians in his business dealings. So in that way he is an insider. He is not dumb or stupid. This guy has been around politicians for over 40 years, if you Google him (particular in the early 80s) you will realise that he is a lot more articulate and far more intelligent than people realise. Time will only tell what kind of president he will be but I imagine that the establishment will try to scupper any plans that he has. One of things he has said in his speech, "America first". All US Presidents have always put the interests of their country first, the only difference is that he openly said it.

All for gay equality, but the use of this symbol on a site intended to promote Sikh values is questionable. This is the same logo you see stitched onto the underpants of hundreds of horny, half-naked, over-energetic guys at London's gay pride parades. This has nothing to do with Sikhi, it seems to me like the complete opposite. Concerned it will mislead people about our faith.

Vahiguru jee ka khalsa vahiguru jee kee fateh! I can't claim to be a spokesperson for the Gurdwara or the collective sangat who attends the gurdwara however this post has been brought to my attention and I will try my best to answer. Firstly, I think we can all agree that peshis in front of the Punj Pyare are to be kept gupt (unless in the rare occassion there is a larger overarching interest, like the safety of a person, or larger Panthic interest that Singhs doing seva have to determine for themselves). But I'm not sure what the purpose of such a post is besides creating controversy and dubidha. If the poster had a genuine concern, s/he could very easily go to the website and contact the gurdwara directly (all you had to do was google "gurdwara tapoban phone" and you would've found it. This type of exhibitionism is frankly a reflection of immaturity or something worse. I personally am not aware of anyone who does seva in the Punj Pyare divulging information outside of the amrit sinchar. That having been said, if there is such a concern, the proper approach is to raise it directly or come to the sangat and raise it. Even if it were true that someone was guilty of such a mistake (which I'm not aware of and doubt would be true), how would it reflect on the entire sangat at a gurdwara? Wouldn't that individual be blameworthy alone? I don't intend to reply further to this thread and would suggest it be closed as such discussions don't lend themselves to online forums. If you have a concern, you are most welcome to visit the gurdwara sahib or alternatively you can call 416-871-0182 and discuss it.
