Waheguru Ji

We would like to wish this other channel all the best

Yes there is a huge confusion over the the two channel names

The Sikh Channel http://www.thesikhchannel.com is a long term project and will be working hard to provide quality programming!

We do not want the dispute over the channel names to become a battle ground as our aim is to do prachaar, with clear aims and objectives

This is a copy of our recent press release

Firstly we would like to thank everyone for contacting us and for the overwhelming support shown, whether it has been financial, pledging their services or goodwill gestures. We are extremely encouraged with the response from the community and would like to thank everyone for the encouragement shown towards our goal.

We would like to inform everyone that a lot of work has been going on behind the scenes to try and make this vision a reality, and with Guru Sahibs kirpa we will be making some important announcements soon so watch this space.

In order to achieve our ultimate goal and one day become a dedicated, quality Sikh TV Channel we will have to take this project in realistic stages and we are extremely fortunate that a media partner has pledged their support in aiding us to establish ourselves on the Sky TV platform, The Sikh Channel team have been working hard and are extremely happy to announce that The Sikh Channel has negotiated just under 12 hours per day of quality Sikhi programming on a forthcoming satellite channel.

We are also extremely proud to announce that Sikhnet (Worlds Largest Sikh Website) have exclusively teamed up with The Sikh Channel, working together in partnership to provide outstanding exclusive programming. The growing band of supporters lends strength and depth to our campaign.

With the grace of Guru ji we are making real and tangible progress towards achieving our mission “The Sikh Channel”

Our tentative launch date for the UK Sky platform has been set for the 5th January 2010 (Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s birthday)

In the meantime please continue to support us by donating and pledging your services! Every single penny and declaration of support counts.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
