The state of our Panth has really hit rock bottom. That is how it is now. In fact, the Punjab government is promoting langar seva in Darbar Sahib as a tourist activity for foreigners to do. Traditionally in Darbar Sahib even till the 90s only Amritdharis were allowed to do Langar Seva but no more. Maryadha is almost all finished.

From my understanding, for beginners having a fixed amount of Paaths or Malas to do daily is a good way to make it a habit. It all depends on your Kamaee. For the very advanced Abhyasis who have a lot of Kamaee, they do abhyas HarDham. It becomes second nature to them. When many Mahapursh advise to beginners to dedicate 1/10 of their daily time towards Bhagti, it is very useful for those people bby nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum

No matter how much we say about Baba Jee it will be less. Baba Jee has shown how a supreme Sikh leader should be. Religiously he was Rahitvaan, politically he only lived and eventually died for the Panth, proving his loyalty was only for the Panth. In his lifestyle, he was like a humble Fakir. Never wearing expensive clothing or accumulating wealth even though he was the ruler of present day Punjby nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum

For those who have doubts about Baba Banda Singh Bahadur, their doubts should be put to rest when Baba Jee passed the Agni Pariksha of their doubts by giving such a Shaheedi and not once asking for mercy or even flinching in pain as any normal human being would have done.

Bhai Inder Singh Jee, Ratan Singh Bhangus book is no doubt a great sourse of our history but Bhangu was not infallable. He has written many things which we know are not correct such as distorting Bhai Mani Singh Jee's Shaheedi by saying it was because of a Sraap given by the Sangat because Bhai Sahib cut or distorted Gurbani.

Just as Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindravale have had a lot of GOI sponsored propaganda created against them in order to confuse Sikhs similarly Baba Banda Singh Bahadur also had false propaganda created against him by the rulers of Delhi and self serving Sikhs at the time. 100-200 years from now I would not be surprised if Sikhs in future start to believe the lies spread about Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindby nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Veerji what you have written is the description of every Kala Afghanist and missionary out there. They never come out with their real agenda at first. They will first use a trickery of words. Once they get you in with their word games, then they try to confuse you and distort your beliefs on traditional Sikhi into their atheistic way of thinking. When you defend Sikhi, they ask for proof from Gurby nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Sagg jee, to be honest, neither Gurmat nor Gurbani says all religions are equal. If they were all equal why are we Sikhs? why not choose an easier religion if all of them lead to the same destination? Before Guru Nanak Dev Jee, no one ever heard about Sachkhand. Neither is it the destination of any religion. A Muslim's destination is Jannat, a Christian wants Heaven, Buddhist wants Nirwana, Hinduby nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum

This just comes to show that Gurbani should be considered pure truth. Many modern Sikhs like to say Gurbani is metaphorical where it does not correspond with their modern preconceived notions, but this type of thinking is wrong. At least we as Sikhs should try to see Gurbani is truth and try to measure everything from the facts given in Gurbani.by nimana - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Dal Bidar Jee, the Kala Afghanists are dusht followers of Gurbaksh Kala Afghana who reject Guru Gobind Singh Jee's bani even the ones we read in our Nitnem, they even reject Naam Simran, Amritvela and Akhand Paaths. Kala Afghana itself is a village near Batala.

This is the best news I have read in a while. Don't let the parchar stop. Strike while the iron is still hot. There should be a website created for this purpose so we can send Daswand for this noble cause.

Baba Raam Singh jee was a Gursikh. He promoted Saas Giraas Simran, Bana, Akhand Paaths and even Sarbloh Bibek. He also promoted doing Sangatee Kirtan which is why they are called Kookay. The classical style kirtan that Kookas are not famous for only started during the early part of the 20th century. Baba Raam Singh Jee wanted Sikhs to come back into Sikhi.
