Bro is wearing a baseball cap over a buzz cut as a public figure and suggesting to be a remembering our history and shaheedi of Sikhs as a Sikh to others without any disclaimers?!!!

I'm the minority, but the ignorance of the effect he is having on youth is killing Sikhi as ordained by our guruji's. He is keeping the word "Sikhi" alive while killing Sikhi itself. It's that simple. Not his fault to a point cause it was generations before that failed him. However ,he has a responsibility to recognize your ENTIRE message if he wishes to be public.

Carry on as yourself in whatever form you are, pass on your wonderfully intended message, but keep it wonderful instead of an insulting mockery by acknowledging for the sake of kids and society watching that this is not what they should model.

Regarding the video. This is awesome more people are waking up to SIkhi. Never say happy diwali. In SIkhi diwali has no meaning and is a joyous occasion for Hindus. Let them celebrate their events. Stick to Gurmat and celebrate Satguru's return from jail to Sri Harmindar Sahib. There must have been thousands of Jaikara coming from the Sikhs, when they saw Satguru walk in. The blessful state can only be described by Shabad Guru

    • 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.
