What A Cheek!!!!!

The Akal Thakt Jathedar is chilling and playing golf.

He is relaxing because of all the hard work he has done, all that travelling to the RSS programmes must take it out of him. I mean the Panth is doing so good init we have freedom and there is no disrespect going on. Therefore the Jathedar can have a little break.

NOT

The situation the Panth is in and the problems the panth is facing, the jathedar shouldn’t even have time to sleep. I mean families of shaheeds are suffering in poverty. People are still locked up for no reason. The killers of the anti Sikh riots have not been brought to justice. The youth in Punjab are cutting their hair and taking drugs. Our history is being rewritten and is being replaced with slanderous versions. But the jathedar has time and money to take his family to Canada for holiday and play golf.

I say Vedanti should be taken down from his position!

We need a real Jathedar like Akali Phoola Singh. Who became Shaheed for the Panth!

The great Sikh General, Jathedar Akali Phoola Singh, was born in 1761. His father Ishar Singh was fatally wounded during the great massacre of Sikhs (Wada Ghalughara) in 1762. Before his death he charged Bhai Narain Singh of Misl Shaheedan with the responsibility of raising his infant son.

Akali Ji, by the age of ten, could recite Nitnem and other Gurbani hymns. At Anandpur Sahib, he always kept himself busy doing sewa or reading Gurbani, and he became very popular with the sangat. Because of his scholastic attitude and commitment to Panthic welfare, he was made the leader (Jathedar) of the Misl after the death of Bhai Narain Singh. In 1800, he came to Amritsar and made the Mahants improve the management of the Gurdwaras. The major credit for extending the boundaries of the Sikh Raj goes to Akali Ji, the legendary general of the Sikhs.

In 1808, a British representative was sent to Amritsar for talks for developing better relations between the two governments. A Muslim platoon with the British emissary organized a procession to celebrate their festival chanting loud slogans. When passing near the Akal Takhat, they were advised not to create noise, because it disturbed the Sikh congregation. However, the leaders of the procession insulted the Sikhs instead of listening to their suggestion. On hearing this disturbing news, Akali Ji himself went to settle the matter with the British platoon. The soldiers apologized and behaved respectfully in the future. No more noisy processions were taken near the Gurdwara again.

Akali ji fought in many battles for the protection of Sikhi. He also received the honour of becoming a shaheed for the Panth on the Battlefield.

He was a fearless and skilled commander. He maintained the Sant-Sipahi (Saint-Soldier) tradition of the Khalsa. Akali Phoola Singh Ji remains a role model for all Sikhs.
