Two groups in the Canadian Sikh diaspora are calling for Canada's political parties to "present a united front" on India after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a "potential link" between the shooting death of a local leader and the Indian government.
In a joint statement, the Ontario Gurdwaras Committee and the British Columbia Gurdwaras Council say that "Canadian parties of all stripes must be unequivocally clear" about their opposition to possible foreign interference relating to the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June.

My faith has been a constant in my life through good times and bad. I'm not going to waver from my faith but I'm also not going to be ashamed of my sexuality. Sadly I know gay Sikhs who have given up their faith, or who feel their only option was to cut their hair, and to become less faithful, or just focus on their inner faith rather than spend time at the gurdwara. I have seen some Sikhs who have come out to their family members who have been kicked out of their homes, who have been beaten, who have been called paedophiles, and have had so much thrown at them. When they see that done by family members wearing turbans they associate that image with their faith. They may even be unable to speak openly to someone who's wearing a turban because of what they've experienced.

anyone who is visibly ethnic and looks like they're 10+ yrs older than me is automatically auntie/uncle that's just how it goes. additionally if they're south asian and they're around my age or younger they're sister or brother. sorry i dont make the rules
#one time i accidentally called my uncles wifes elder sister her name by accident without saying auntie and i almost got killed#and this was at the gurdwara too man. ill never live it down 😭#i learned my lesson yes sir

just had a very sweet moment with my mother as we looked over the suraksha vinyl and listened to the lullaby intro together :")
#marthposting#pinkshift#its so . idk seeing her recognize the artstyle and then telling her that it was intentional#like . i think she mentioned it reminding her of navratari ?#and then listening to the intro - disclaimer my mom is sikh but she still immediately recognized the mantir#and was telling me about how it was similar to something we would do in the gurdwara vs in a mandir#not like . to conflate the two . but as a point of reference and recognition#and also reading the back of the sleeve !! i read it out for her and we both laughed hen we got to the specific names-#not bc they were odd but because they were familiar - i know off the top of my head exactly who babi pooa is in my family#like i dont know how to explain just how much pinkshift and this ep mean to me . its like the past made comfortable in my present#where ive always found clash between what i was raised with and what i grew up to be#this record is a beautiful harmony of both#and it means the world to me#like i wish i could give this record to 13 y/o me . tell them that theres space to exist as both

#if I had the time + money to regularly go to the gurdwara that's 1.5 hours away... maybe things would be slightly better??#can't decide if I'm religious or not these days but damn at this point even a little darshan might fix something#why are the only other people in town who know about my religion part of a crazy ass yoga cult!!#and why are a statistically significant number of people I have random beef with panjabi like T-T#seeing my evil ex* at the gurdwara would kill me. like instantly

गुरुद्वारों पर नहीं फहराया जाएगा भगवा ध्वज, SGPC ने बताया भ्रामक; जानें अब कौन सा रंग होगा प्रयोग
Punjab Newz: खालसा की शान और सम्मान का प्रतीक निशान साहिब का रंग अब केसरिया नहीं होगा, बल्कि इसका रंग बसंती होगा. जी हां, ये हम नहीं कह रहे हैं बल्कि सिखों की सबसे प्रमुख संस्था शिरोमणि गुरुद्वारा प्रबंधक कमेटी (SGPC) की ओर से एक पत्र जारी कर इस बात की जानकारी दी गई है. यह फैसला शिरोमणि गुरुद्वारा प्रबंधक कमेटी ने श्री अकाल तख्त साहिब में हुई पांच सिंह साहिबान की बैठक के बाद लिया है. शिरोमणि…

Just as my Sikhism is part of me, so is my sexuality. So is my turban. So is my identity. I can't divorce any one thing from the rest of me. That is who I am. My husband is white, British, and was not born into a Sikh family. But he understands my Sikhi (Sikhism) and he has respected and embraced that part of my life. We have said we want to have a family and want to bring our children up Sikh. We spoke about the kind of wedding we wanted in great detail, but sadly there was no way of getting married in a gurdwara, even though in my interpretation of the Anand Karaj (the Sikh marriage ceremony), there is no reason for this.
