We don't have liberty to wear kirpans outside. We can't wear it to theme parks such as Disney land, six flags and neither we can wear in sourthouses etc. US Embassy in Delhi India also does not allow kirpans. We Sikhs without our country has many restrictions to freely enjoy our religious freedom.

I don't think theme parks allow weapons, no matter what. Don't think having Khalistan would change that. Can't expect to go to a foreign country and have them bend over backwards to please you.

So you think Khalistan is meaningless?

Khalistan is the only way we'll be seen as important.

No, my point is that Khalistan probably won't get Disneyland, Six Flags etc to change their policies. Perhaps in court houses etc. But, to me Khalistan is a place where Sikhs can freely practice Sikhi, not for us to go on a roller coaster with a Kirpan on. 

If embassies or courthouses of a foreign nation don't allow Kirpans, don't go or leave your Kirpan when visiting those buildings.

No, bro, I'm not mad. Tell me this: Was or was not the Sikh Channel brought up on charges when it had a discussion about 1984?

I'm not talking about COUNTLESS kathas on pedestrian topics like not cheating or stealing. I said katha about specific sections of Bani. Since I mentioned the word Islamophobic, you should be able to guess the sections I"m talking about.

Your mixing up two different things here.. 

First of all I can't think of any bani that is islamaphobic and how does your comment relate to 1984?

Not sure how much experience you have in corporate world but they do bend all the way down to make profits. Not going into deep but search 'veggie only McDonald' the only kind near darbar sahib. Your whole argument collapse on just one example.

Dear brother, having some degree of inferiority complex and accepts the slavery mentality "oh I came to this country, I should do this or that" should not be the conclusion. If firaanges can come to our house in 1830's and messed up our country, culture and religion and then you say don't do anything that upsets the majority when we go to their land. ??‍♂️

There's a MaccyDs near Darbar Sahib? Well that's news to me and I now know the next stop after Darbar Sahib for me :ghost:

Singh ji,

Khalsa are supposed to carry full length Kirpan 3 or 4 foot not 6 inch ones !

What Jathas & organisations preach is a watered down version of Rehat Maryada so it's not just corporates that bend over backwards ?

Entirely different, government buildings are not corporate buildings, or equivalent. Also backs up my point, corporations/businesses are free to set their own policies eg. weapons allowed or not. 

 

I don't believe myself or Sikhs to be inferior to anyone.

Actions of centuries old governments has no relevance to Canada/USA. UK, perhaps. 

We are allowed to wear our Kirpans etc in public all we want, which is good. But, pushing for us to be allowed to wear them in places that are strictly anti weapons, I don't know..

Provide the rehat maryada that says the kirpan must be 3 or 4 foot long.  Talk is cheap.

    • 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.
