Am I a Sikh

gmustukGTSGPC making new definations everyday about Sikhism and the people who are so called at high ranks in Sikhism also try their best to measure a sikh according to his/her appearence. I am cleanshaven just like millions of other Sikh and the so called pure sikhs call us sahezdhari. Doesn’t matter hwo much they lie or how much they loot guru ka gollak.

Do I need any definition? Do I have to be in 5 k’s to impress our other pure sikhs? I don’t have to, especially the one who belongs to SGPC and live their whole life on sangats money. SGPC banned sahezdhari to vote for SGPC elections many years ago. There is no one who can hold their dirty collars and shake them. They have got ‘Z’ security provided by central or punjab government. Many people asked me if i can’t practice sikhism, i have no right to teach other people about sikhism,not even to comment on it.

“This website is not about sikhism,its about the problems that are effecting us” offcourse most of the problems are created by our own members of our community and some of them are pure sikhs. Its their ego is that they can’t take advice from a sahezdhari sikh. Most of the time ego is based on money,wealth or power or sometime education. But I can’t see any of these things in our leaders or SGPC members, no doubt they are all rich. How to become rich? I think its the mostly used term in google and msn search engines. I would advice you to join SGPC or open your own gurudwara.

I recieved an email recently from one of my Sikh brother. please read it below;

Good to see ur blogs and websites. Your concerns for the losses of sikhism. Your proudness about being a punjabi and your work to uplift the punjabiyat and sikhism.

You might be doing a good job for our other brothers. But am not too sure about your own self. Your opinion might be different from mine and i completely respect yours. No offence ……… but “Rehni rahe soi sikh mera” was said by Respected Guru Gobind Singh ji sahib. U need to consider this too. you are doing a great job. but will sound better and be more effective if you consider your outlook. Because your outlook tells that you have COMPROMISED. You are an educated sikh and your views are great. Sikhs need good leaders and youth needs role model. Lets cure ourselves first before we start treating the masses.

Have a think!-Ur brother-Singh 

My views on my appearence;

My dear brother, thanks a lot for your email. Its really an eye opener message. “Sikhi tikhi hai khandey di dhar nalo,okhi hai niboni pyara”. I think I am not ready yet. Why? Is it an excuse? Could be! Who knows? I was in chandigarh in 1996 when I killed my hair. I remember it was the day when they killed Punjab CM Beant Singh. My parents didn’t speak to me for many months. I again started wearing turban in my medical school. I don’t want to make excuses, but I get headache with turban and can’t bear glasses with it. My eyes are so sensitive to contact lens. Even I can’t use glasses to see, because it gives me headache. I have 20 glasses. I know you are not impressed. I know there will be lots of alternatives to glasses and headaches. Main thing is again its too hard. I am not ready yet.

“Sant Baba Ranjit Singh Ji Dhadrian Wale said, Start going to gurudwara, you will change one day.” I will change one day. Hopefully soon.

My idea of being sahezdhari is-

There is no harm being sahezdhari as long as my heart is pure, as long as I help people in need, as long as I read gurbani, as long as I speak for Sikhs, as long as I fight against injustice, as long as I think about Sikhism and very keen to help humanity. Somebody said, Sikhism is a purity, A Sikh is a Pure Human Being. I am not great or genius, I am trying to help people in whatever way I can. I think we should consider all sahezdhari sikhs as a sikh. We should stop creating bounderies around sikhism. Let everybody enjoy their lives.

Ask SGPC that they look very much like a pure sikh but they have done nothing, nothing mean nothing for mankind or sikhism. (I know they went to kala pani to donate money to the survivals of sonami-but their was no fairness in that, they give more money to people who provided them food and shelter and the people they knew, the people who were already rich).  Make me the president of SGPC I will do everything for everyday and I will wear orange turban and keep long beared as well.

How about creating a new religion for Sahezdhari sikhs? Creating new gurudwaras for Sahezdhari sikhs, Creating new SGPC for Sahezdhari sikhs.

    Complicated and sensitive issue. Don know what to say!Most of the Sikhs are sahezdhari. They are in majority. SGPC can’t make their own decision. Who is controlling SGPC?
