Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh! The current democratic system (election system) and Sikhism has nothing in common. In so called democratic elections, people of one party will abuse other party members, they will do anything to win elections. Gurmat doesn't tells us to *abuse* fellow Gursikhs then how come we can believe in the election system? Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj gaveby maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Kesri color came from *shera wali mata* also known as *vaishno mata*. This is from the time when Durgyana Mandir in Sri Amritsar Sahib was built on the model of Sri Harmandar Sahib, Amritsar.

Kudos to Bhai Kulbir SIngh Ji for writing a touching article.

Gursikhs should be gupt. There are lot of Gurmukh chardikala Bibiyan, most of them wants to remain Gupt. This is a true quality of Gursikh anyway. The other possibility which GurSangat already mentioned, we have cultural issues where we restrict Bibiyan in doing prominent sewa like punj pyarey di sewa, doing kirtan in Sri Harmander Sahib etc, which is anti-gurmat.

Jujhar singh ji Normally whenever we see someone with badal. We call him RSS. What should we call these so called AKJ singhs? Bhai kulbir singh ji made clear that Singhs did attended the samagam but opted to leave when they heard Badal was coming but how can we justify the ones who went to the stage and are desperate to see their picture with Badal? I am sorry but this is a total shame.by maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum
No Bodh Ji, The Kirtaniya Singh which you are mentioning was in England on the dates mentioned in the news so I am not sure how true the "names" in this news are. I agree with Bhai Kulbir Singh that prominent AKJ Singhs were not present there. But a Strong press statement against Badal from AKJ Singhs should be released.

This was exactly the same thing I was talking about in the "monument thread" . AKJ should give a statement in form of a press release and put Badal down. Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!by maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum
I think Kawaljit SIngh Ji made a valid point. Tie it when it is needed and open it right after you are done ( Surger/machiner work etc). No need to use "Fixo/Gel" in any condition as Fixo and Gel leads to Kesh bedabi. I use to tie my beard 5 years back ( never used fixo ) . My own experience is that Open beard is more relaxing and I feel more confident and comfortable in my daily chores. Vaby maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Bhai Jasjit Singh Ji I agree with you that Badal is doing this for a political mileage but I disagree that AKJ shouldn't react. With all due respect, we shouldn't ignore these statements /signs of Badal. I strongly believe that there are some interior motives of Jalam Badal Sarkar.

Bhai Jasji Singh Ji! I don't think anyone is saying that Bhai Sahib is/was property of AKJ but AKJ should definitely issue a statement by rejecting demand of Badal. I don't have a iota of doubt that Bhai Sahib would have ever accepted any such offer from anyone forget about the offers from corrupt leaders/panth doshis like Badals. Its a moral duty of AKJ to speak against this offer. Bhulby maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Why is Badal trying to score points with AKJ? I heard from a Puratan Gursikh that Punjab/Indian Govt is always trying its level best to infiliterate AKJ? Is this a sign? They have been successsful doing this with Dam Dami Taksal in the past. AKJ India should be bold enough to issue a statement in the press in regards to this issue. May be a rejection to the offer of Badals? Personally, I amby maha_paapi - Gurmat Discussion Forum
