Tucker Carlson reminds everyone that the intel that claims “Iran tried to assassinate Trump” came from Israeli intelligence…

But further, he reminds everyone that the lie that “Iraq had WMD’s and chemical weapons” came from Israeli intelligence…

I’m seeing a pattern here..

Recent images of a couple appropriating the Anand Karaj have rightly caused outrage.

This beadbi is part of a wider pattern of “destination weddings” and wedding planners taking over Guru Sahibs Darbar. These practices centre individualism and materialism, and demonstrate no understanding of Laavan, which centres Guru, Sikhi, and Sangat.

“Destination weddings” are carried out by a handful of misguided individuals to serve a consumer demand created by couples from Sikh families that see Anand Karaj as any other wedding and through a lens of maya as their “big day”.

People continue to co-opt Sikhi as a 'tradition' or 'culture' without commitment to understand or live Gursikhi. Part of the issue is parents of couples that have a repressed sense of shame at their child being westernised and encourage them to have their non-Sikh partners dress up as Sikhs to save face in their community. Part of the problem is couples not understanding or being able to connect to Sikhi beyond a vague notion of “tradition”. And part of the problem is Gurdwara management not taking a stand on Sikh principles and practices.

This is compounded by presenting Sikhi as the problem, as something that is holding back individual desire and “progress”.

Even though Singh and Kaur have become a 'surname' and a claim to a 'cultural identity', the reality is Singh and Kaur are tied to Amrit, bestowed to Sikhs that take Amrit. If you have Singh and Kaur as part of your name it is because your ancestors took Amrit.

We should be thinking about, and honestly discussing, how we got to the point where ancestors of amritdhari gursikhs are today are mutilating themselves by cutting their own hair and marrying white people in cowboy hats. This displacement from Sikhi is tied to the lasting violence of colonisation.

When we centre Gursikhi then we can lose the materialism, individualism, and empty notions of “equality”, “inclusivity” and “progress” to cultivate meaningful connection and love for Sikhi. Our culture is not an identity or costume, Guru Sahibs Darbar is not a place to centre yourselves.

Sikh culture is amrit, seva, simran, sangat, shaheedi, it is an embodied reality, not something to be consumed, or used as a backdrop for individual material fantasy.

“In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race.

A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after realizing what was happening, he started shouting at the Kenyan for him to continue running; but Mutai didn't understand his Spanish.

Fernandez eventually caught up to him and instead of passing him, he pushed him to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"
Ivan replied, “My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win.” The journalist insisted “But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win.” The journalist insisted again, “But you could have won!”Ivan looked at him & replied, “But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of that medal?
What would my Mom think of that?”

Values are transmitted from generation to generation.

What values are we teaching our children?

Let us not teach our kids the wrong ways to WIN.”
