Re: TV Interview: Giani Gurbachan Singh, Jathedar Sri Akal Takhat Sahib on Darshan SiHere is one of many such ridiculous statements!When Bhai Sulakhan Singh entered the Ragi's residence he discovered that the Ragi was in the middle of a meal that included objectionable items, including eggs and omlet. Being a Rahitvaan Singh Bhai Sulakhan Singh immediately scolded the Ragi for being an Akal Takht Jathedar and violating the Sikh code of conduct. The Ragi defended the consumption of meat and stated they were considered Jhatka and thus allowed by the Panth. Bhai Sulakhan Singh further scolded him for making up such excuses, and for betraying the sacred position of the Takht, and stated this would be the last time he and the BKI organization would communicate with him.Nothing in the Sikh Rehat Marayada forbids consumption of meat. And here we have former jathedar Darshan Singh being upbraided for eating eggs. If Sikhs were Jains this might make sense. Surely you follow this simple proposition. Not only that, but Bhai Sulakhan Singh "raided" the house of someone else. This is pure melodrama and self-promotion, probably to make himself look like a long suffering hero! Next we read the Professor Darshan Singh states that an omelet is considered Jhatka. Are we supposed to believe that Professor Darshan Singh does not know the difference between an egg and a goat? Unless of course the person who wrote this article meant "meat" for "other objectionable items" but forgot to be specific. Finally, Bhai Sulakhan Singh is depicted stalking off in a bad mood after scolding Professor Darshan Singh for making excuses.If this qualifies as "news" then 10 year old children would qualilfy as editors and reportersshrabi jiWhat are "panthic" views?Who decides what "panthic" views are (what individual or individuals)?What are their credentials or qualifications?How does one acquire the qualifications to define "panthic" views for everyone else?Is there anyway to test or evaluate whether these individuals have a correct understanding of "panthic" views?How did panthic.org rise to the level of being able to decide what "panthic" views should be?Who or What gave them this understanding?What lables should we give to those members of the panth who do not agree with the views of panthic.org and why?Is it possible that some other organization that disagrees with "panthic views" expressed in the article is more in touch with the panth and a better spokesman for the panth?P/S Please take my use of "panthic.org" to include panthic.org and their affiliates.
