Dashmesh Darbaar Gurdwara is hosting a Nagar SOCIAL tomorrow at 9:30 for the 6th time(I think) in Surrey. Being the manmukh I am I'll be socializing with Singhs for the most part. There will be way too much manmutt going on around me. I spent a few hours at Club D walking around, helping build floats and listening to kirtan, oh and socializing too. But I could not feel the spirit of Vasakhi that I used to many years ago when I waited for April 13 for months in advance. Something is missing nowadays and the way it’s been for the past few years it will just get worse. I took a few pictures while I was there and will post them soon.

The true message on April14th has been lost and NO one’s making an attempt to bring that forward. I was doing baran mahaan today and just wanted to share the above pangatiien because they hold deep meaning and great importance for the ones that want to look beyond the samossay, pop, gatka, &…………. It’s amazing how much of a difference there is between the Vasakhi that Gurbani talks about and what we have made it into. No wonder there is so much baeemani…

It’s getting late now but I’ll hopefully have a lot of stuff to write about and some pictures too.

I think there will be a live broadcast of the nagar ‘kirtan’ here.

Oh and don’t forget to check out Japnaam singh/Hardeep Singh’s colorful in depth coverage and analysis tomorrow night…

Back!

vwihguruU jI kw ^wlsw[vwihgurU jI kI &iqh[

I had no idea how many people were regular readers of this blog. In the past few weeks I've had people that I never thought would be reading this come up to me and ask why I don't put up any good posts anymore. I think I should be posting material actually worth reading in the coming days.

I finally met Bhai Ripudaman Singh after 5 long years. He gave me a loooong hug in their basement when they had an Akhand Paaath Sahib Friday night. I still have a very hard time believing that they are finally free. I believe that it was the ardass of one Gurmukh payara that swung the judgment in the Singhs' favor.

I don't want to say anything else on this because that could land me in legal trouble. But some of the stuff in the local papers is just PURE THUGGI!!!! Some of the reporters' bad karms are just popping up and forcing them to write such filth. I do want to comment on Tara Hayer's son; that guy’s just lost it now. Japnaam Singh talks about me being a militant? But this koamnshut is beyond millitant! He’s crazy, and I am not the only one that thinks that. I don't think he should have been a MLA in the first place, he just lucked out with all the redneck vote. I doubt he’s going to win this time. He’s the one liberal candidate who I hope losses the election next month.

Even though I haven’t posted anything readable in months a lot of people keep coming to this site. If you do a google search for many sikhi-related words it returns with this site as a top hit surpassing many other really well made pages by engineers, doctors and even MP’s and MLA’s! The post on Bhai Kulbir Singh’s Bio got a lot hits.

I’ve almost reached my bandwidth limit, if I want to continue to post more pictures and continue "photo parchaar" Im gonna have to look for a new host. I think I’ll do that in the next few days...

This time I will get in a few good posts a week for sure, this is a good way to relax and improve writing skills at the same time.

Japnaam Singh and I both started blogs last August and in one of the first posts he mentioned that I would be posting about Gurbani/Viakaran and other random issues. This time around I will have a lot of time on my hands to research and put up Gurbnai related posts because I'll be taking just 3 courses in the summer, maybe a part time job as well.

Oh and has anyone noticed that it’s NAGAR SOCIAL season again!!!! Expect a few posts on that.....
