IS it per Gurmat to go to Patalpure/Ganga river/ KARTARPUR in Punjab to aasthhian paan jaana of a dead person ( ashes of dead persons) ??
The Sikh Rehat maryada is very very clear on this. The ashes of a dead person are to be put in running water nearest to his place of residence or even buried at a suitable palce but with no grave/headstone/marrhi etc.
ANY one who goes against this REHAT MARADA is a TANKHIYAH.
Recently the ashes of Yogi harbhjan Singh of USA were taken to Patalpure Kartarpur..and the top Jathedars of Punjab were there..arrent they all tankhiyag=hs for participating in an anti gurmatt action.
Ramkali Sadd in Guru garnth Ji clearly says:

AAnte satgur boliah..mein pichheh KIRTAN karioh nirbaan jeeo, Keso Gopal pandit sadiah HAR HAR KATHA pariah puraan jeeo, Har katha pariah, Har naam sunneah, Har rang har Bhaveh… PIND PATIL KIRIYAH DEEVA FULL..HAR SAR PAVEH..
Guur Ji is telling us to IMMERSE ourselves in the HAR SAR of SADH SANGAT….instead of doing all those Hindu rites of patal kiriah deeva ashes in hardwar etc. Guur Ji says HARDWAAR is HAR SAR – SADH SANGAT.
Interestingly, even though PIND, PATAL, KIRIAH, DEEVA and FULL are mentioned in this TUK….the people concerned ONLY Take “ FULL” (ashes) to so called harsar BUT NOT the PIND DEEVA etc also mentioned in the same tuk ?? I wonder why ??
This taking of ashes to PUNJAB is GHOR MANMATT…..not sanctioned in GURBANI and BANNED by the SIKH REHAT MARYADA…YET Sikhs especially in the WEST ( not a single case from Malaysia/Singapore has been heard of yet) spend millions on this useless act..even being IDOLISED in Bollywood pictures like VEER ZAARA. Anything bollywood idolizes is BAD for SIKHI and this act of ashes carrying is certainly a BAD act.
