I’ve heard a nihang claim this some years back.  

Isn’t he a udasi writer from the maharaja period ? He wrote the Nanak vijay Granth and I think ten other books. He is the one who states That guru Jee creates two gaddis, one for Guru Angad and one for baba Sri Chand. Both running parallel in the same direction 

Many great gursikhs were celibate, Bhai gurdas, baba deep singh, Giani Gian Singh etc

This is fantastic thanks for sharing 

Feel free to leave if you think you can't live without swearing. If you feel that Bhagat Singh insulted you then why did'n you report the comment just like other members report content that is out of line?? Or did you just think of it as an opportunity to bring out trash talk of him being abused as a kid??  You dont make any sense.
 
The admins on this page dont read every single post that is made, so some people might break the rules without the admins knowing - for the most part we rely on members reporting material that crosses the rules. Now that i've browsed through many posts from recent two weeks I can see there are plenty of posts where you have sweared and used foul language, without it being edited or you being warned. So if you wanna continue claiming that Bhagat got a free pass then you can relax and know for sure that you've had plenty of free passes in the last few weeks also.

No he did'n. i happened to read the post myself.
Aarh threaths. Very good. Very mature. Grow up man. Feel free to leave the page if you can't live without swearing. But it's a shame if you leave as  you've added valuable inputs to many topics over the months.

Overall you start seeing a "Talebanisation" of SIkhi these years with a ban on everything that manifests artistic expression, whether music, dance, painting etc.
It's quite sad actually and completely ahistorical.

Dancing is an expression of art and helps to tune in and 'let go' to musical rhythm. Kids that can't feel their own emotions often train this through music and dance as it helps them to feel a connection with something external (music) and internal (their body).  
Yes sure there are some that misuse it but that does'nt mean it per se becomes wrong. 
It's like those people that say it's wrong to clap and 'do rhythms' with your body when listening to kirtan.

I think he was a taksali but normally claimed a nirmala like kavi santokh singh.  Need to check my notes

Also add the Guru Girarath Kosh by Pandit Tara Singh Narotam. It's some 600 pages and written in the 1880s.

This is really interesting. Is it still raised outside the Gurdwara?

Very good, thanks for sharing those

Yes it’s a dictionary of the origin of the word, meaning and use in Guru Granth Sahib.

And you think that’s a constructive way to speak to someone while engaged in a discussion on gurbani and grammar  ? 

That’s a normal expression in English. Would you say your comment about him being abused as a kid is something of a  normal English expression? 

And you didn answer what being abused as a kid has to do with a discussion on gurbani and grammar??

People who do Bhangra doesn’t claim it’s an act of worshiping god. So they would probably agree with this verse and continue their dance 

It’s an interesting topic actually. How you are deceived by media and politicians who are in many cases telling the truth to you. Their own ministries tell us about their scandals, failures and unjust policies yet we just continue to remain under deceit and continue to vote for them.  We don’t really care. They don’t even have to lie.  Their own media tells us that we are under constant surveillance while social media are tapping us for data.we know it but are blinded. Proper deceit while we are feed the truth. 

In generel I think it is also a good idea for kathavaaks to study subjects outside the Sikh canon. Ie study some psychology, logic, rhetorics, politics etc.
 

I would say the Bandaginama by Bhai Raghbir Singh Bir is a must. It talks about spirituality and meditation.

Could it be the wise minister trying to say: I am telling you the truth with these stories and I am hereby trying to make you subvert your decision (of Executing your son)

Yes this is an interesting charitar - using truth to subvert a situation
