I have never met anybody from either organisation and wasn't aware that there had been such a public dispute between the two organisations.<BR/><BR/>I just hope that one or two very strong aid organisations emerge which are free from politics and focused on sewa, with whom the Sikhs can identify and channel their donations and sewa.<BR/><BR/>People are more likely to support Sikh aid organisations if they are transparant with how the donations are used, and are free from personality / political complications.msinghhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05543889475679521829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932725.post-1140573975823437182006-02-22T02:06:00.000+00:002006-02-22T02:06:00.000+00:00True Sewa is doing Sewa with Waheguru in your mind...True Sewa is doing Sewa with Waheguru in your mind and heart.Otpreka Singhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17338424183366545074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932725.post-1140517694059463582006-02-21T10:28:00.000+00:002006-02-21T10:28:00.000+00:00As an aside, Bhai GhaNayaa Ji's story is one that ...As an aside, Bhai GhaNayaa Ji's story is one that has touched me since childhood. I think the warmth, the love, the huimilty just came through as such a powerful message. His selflessness, indifference and ability to see god in all earned him a hug from Guru Gobind Singh ji... Wow! Can you imagine! <BR/><BR/>If only we could take example and live our daily lives through this message.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932725.post-1140488285642346742006-02-21T02:18:00.000+00:002006-02-21T02:18:00.000+00:00sikhi seeker I agree when you say "Sikhism has for...sikhi seeker I agree when you say "Sikhism has forever faced problems in uniting even over the most common causes". It would be interesting to know if anybody has done any research to causes of lack of unity. One obvious one is that of caste.<BR/><BR/>After the terrible events of 1984 I sometimes wonder what it's going to take to make us realise that we need to unite.msinghhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05543889475679521829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932725.post-1140306161409323782006-02-18T23:42:00.000+00:002006-02-18T23:42:00.000+00:00Only when I was taking a second look at your post,...Only when I was taking a second look at your post, did I realize how perfect is your choice to use Bhai Ghanaiya ji's picture for this post. :D:D<BR/>Cheers!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15932725.post-1140306092874668682006-02-18T23:41:00.000+00:002006-02-18T23:41:00.000+00:00We can only wish for such unity.

I myslelf find working in groups tough. But I think that is one challenge we can overcome by lending a leading voice of a blessed influencer on all the people, someone who can motivate all to unite for the common cause. And when you describe the new organizations that have sprung up for personal fulfilments, I wonder sometimes that people cannot really be so ruthless. Probably they take their first step in hope, but wander adrift too soon. I guess it is the lack of the light and that constant push that comes when the goals are public and huge audiences to answer to. Sikhism has forever faced problems in uniting even over the most common causes. Hopefully some fine day, and sometime soon...<BR/>Satnam Waheguru!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
