Thanks veer ji, noted all those above.
By Khalsa I assume you mean the SGPC maryada? (normal maryada)

No, Khalsa as in:

While the Khalsa stays true,

Did this discussion die? The most interesting stuff I've read on here in a long time

How Important is Punjabi Language for Sikhs?
Very! No read/ write Punjabi means Guru Granth Sahib cannot be understood. Guru Granth Sahib can ONLY and ONLY be read shudh if it in Punjabi. And if one has the ability to understand Punjabi then when listening to Gurbani it can b easily understood, if not all of it.
To understand all of it one must take the farther step of listening to Guru Granth Sahib katha or read teekakars of Gurbani.

Kundalini Sikhi name issue
Hi thanks for your response! No I'm from the UK (England) so it's a fairly easy process. I know I think that's the Kundalini way, seems strange now two names.
Thanks I will look into that further though as that seems the best way.
I seem to be getting two different views from Kundalini and Sikhi communities so still feel a bit torn.
Is this something I could approach the Panj Pyare at an Amrit Sanchar, they sometimes happen near me?

Gurbani.org
Hi
This is a really good site, especially for those of you that do not know how to read Paath:
https://www.gurbani.org/articlemenu.php
I am not involved with the site at all. Also I do not agree with all their views, approach and translations. (e.g. They take a Advait approach, but I follow Bhakti)
But it still makes "food for thought", and is nice for those who do not know how to read Gurbani.

Is khalsa aid wasting sangats resources on rohingya?
People are giving donations freely, knowing very well where it will end up going. Do it doesn't really count as wasting. If Sangat" was so caring about Punjab, they could just as easily donate to other groups.

Is khalsa aid wasting sangats resources on rohingya?
The Singhs who dragged Bhai Kanhaiya before Kalgidhar Patshaah sounded very similar to you. "Why give water to some muslim, an enemy, when you could be giving water to a Sikh instead? Shouldn't the Sikhs be a priority?" I shouldn't have to remind you how this turned out for them.
When Dashmesh Pitaa asked Bhai Sahib why he had done this, Kanhaiya replied "I saw no Mughal or Sikh on the field of battle Maharaj, I saw only you". Guru Gobind Singh said that of all those present in the group Kanhaiya alone had understood the real message of Gurbani. Bhai Kanhaiya was right. The Singhs were wrong. I believe you are wrong about this too bhenji. Be careful not to become so obsessed with protecting 'sikhi' that you forget what you're supposed to be protecting in the first place.
Helping somebody is never a waste of anything, it is not only one of the best things we can do for others, but one of the best things we can do for our own Sikhi.

Is khalsa aid wasting sangats resources on rohingya?
What are you talking about? Of course we do. Our lack of publicity is the number one reason so many Sikhs are targeted in the West by confused bigots, why every rally we ever hold in support of our self-determination is routinely ignored by Western media, and why Guru Nanak's message is barely spreading outside the Punjabi demographic. Publicity is exactly what we need.

Agree, we do need publicity, otherwise how will we know where the seva is being done with sangat's donations? The world will know who Sikhs are what they do. We don't need publicity to look good or to give ourselves a pat on the back, but for awareness of Sikhi and as @Balkaar paji said, to spread Guru Nanak Dev ji's message across.

[Part 2] Links/Important info to Udasi/Nirmala/Sevapanthi/Khalsa
Waheguru, good information, believe Damdami Taksaal can be added to this list as it came into being with the direct blessing of Guru Gobind Singh. Mukhis were traditionally associated with nirmalas but the first jathedar was Akali Nihang Baba Deep Singh, so it seems to have been a separate order altogether.

Nope. We don't need publicity by spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in it. Free publicity then go for it.
