Santji's rise in popularity has been described as

Santji's rise in popularity has been described as meteoric. Approaching 1981 in our journey to document the recent history of the Khalsa's Jangnaama, we will look at how and why he was loved and followed by so many.

Starting with this quote from Santji himself, Santji had immersed himself within Gurbani for most of his adult life; reading, in the sangat or doing katha of Gurbani; Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji was the source of all of his strength.

The members rode all the way to Kamloops recently to pay respect to the 215 indigenous children whose remains were discovered from at the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School.

Jackie Andrew, an Indigenous woman from Mount Currie, made special vests for members of the local Sikh motorcycle club.

The beige-coloured garment bears two badges—one with the club’s own and the other with an Indigenous circle of life combining four colours representing different races. It was presented to Malkiat Singh Hoonjan and others from the Legendary Sikh Riders.

***Artistic depictions of the Sikh Guru's are helpful for us to visualise historical accounts (sakhi) and are not used as reverence or for us to pray or bow down to. On the other hand Gurbani (Guru's compositions) is deeply revered and in fact Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji for Sikhs is our eternal Guru.***

This particular artwork depicts the sakhi about Malik Bhago. One day, when Malik Bhago, an important government official of the city, provided food for all religous holy men he invited Guru Nanak Sahib too.

Guru Nanak declined the invitation of Malik Bhago. On being summoned through official command a second time, Guru Nanak Sahib took Bhai Lalo with him and went to Malik Bhago's house. With great anger Malik Bhago said to Guru Nanak, 'You are dishonoring Kshatriyas by eating dry chapati's in the house of a carpenter. My feast offers you delicious food. Why do you refuse to eat it?'

Guru Nanak Sahib took Malik Bhago's buttered bread in his left hand and Bhai Lalo's plain bread in his right hand. When Guru Nanak squeezed his left hand, with the Malik Bhago's buttered bread, everyone saw blood trickling from it. When Guru Nanak squeezed his right hand, the people saw drops of milk dripping from it.

Malik Bhago became silent.

Reports are emerging that farmers have not been given permission to protest at Parliament and instead have been told to go to Jantar Mantar which is 1km away.

There is no statement as of yet by the farmer Union leaders of SKM @kisanektamorcha that have been in discussion with authorities.

What are your thoughts?

Saint Soldier ਸੰਤ ਸਿਪਾਹੀ Sant Si

Saint Soldier
ਸੰਤ ਸਿਪਾਹੀ Sant Sipahi

Sant Sipahi stands for the Sikh concept of "Warrior Saint". The two words 'Sant' and 'Sipahi' can be translated as:

Sant is used to refer to a wise, knowledgeable and Dharmic person or a "person with knowledge of God". Sometimes it is naively translated as "Saint".

Sipahi means Warrior or Soldier.

This is a philosophy and a lifestyle which was first endorsed by Guru Hargobind, and later personified in Guru Gobind Singh. The order of the two words is important.

The first word in this phrase is "Sant" and so this has domination and means that the first duty of the Sikh is to be a "Sant" or to be a wise and knowledgeable person. SANT can be loosely translated as saint though this is not very exact, for the English term, when used in the adjectival sense ‘saintly’ refers to a person of great holiness, virtue or benevolence and has a formal connotation in the Western culture. This is not what the Panjabi word "Sant" conveys to the average person in Punjab. The word is a modified form of the word "Sat" which can simply mean "True" but can also be translated as meaning lasting, real, wise and venerable. Sat or Satya has commonly been used since the Vedic times for the Ever-existent, Unchanging Reality or the Self-existent, Universal Spirit, Brahman or God. The word "Sant" which can be linked to "Sat" is not generally used in a formal sense and is a subjective word which refers to a person who is considered an able and wise. So the common translation of the word

"Sant" is a wise, considerate, judicious and knowledgeable person who has a good understanding of Dharam (Religious observance, righteousness, piety, duty, virtue, merit, honesty, justice, spirituality and morality)

Just when I was about to cut the canvas for this painting I accidentally cut my hand with the sharpest knife. Before I could put any paint on it, my blood was on the canvas. Seems like even painting him demands sacrifice. This 6 feet high portrait of Jarnail Singh Bhindranwala would serve as a reminder that sometimes you don’t choose your battles, the battles choose you and all you can do is put up your best fight regardless of consequences. #santjarnailsinghji #bhindrawale #neverforget1984

Danish Siddiqui, a Reuters photojournalist, was killed in clashes in Spin Boldak district in Kandahar, sources confirmed.

The Indian journalist was covering the situation in Kandahar over the last few days.

Danish Siddiqui @danishpix was the man behind some of the most heart wrenching photos we saw in the last few years in India. He continously put himself on the front line including the ongoing #FarmersProtest

A big loss to the photojournalist community.

Bapu Labh Singh is a living symbol of revolution,

Bapu Labh Singh is a living symbol of revolution, a constant reminder of ongoing struggle, a war yet to be won, our rights yet to be claimed, and dignity yet to be restored. A frail 80 year old man, serving as constant reminder of revolution, in a city where it is easy to get distracted, he guards his post when he could easily choose to not participate at all.

These Symbols of Revolution frighten tyrants, a movement they'd like to see crushed kept alive in determination of one man, reminding you always that we are still protesting. That is why he is harrased and detained at daily basis, because his mere existence means rebellion to those who'd want to control us, and oppress us. We need to protect and preserve these symbols, they won't only help us keep track of what we are fighting for, but maybe those who come after us will find inspiration in stories of brave men and women like Bapu.
