heyyo Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 I just wanna know what people think about Khalistan in reality. Ok, let's say we actually end up gettin some land to make a Khalistan. Do you really think this "land of the pure" would fly? If we were to actually resort strict Sikhi law, wouldn't it just equivalent to the Taliban (mind you, not in respects to the harshness of law, persecution of women etc, but how everything is ruled by religion). Like really, I'm not being some sort of pessimist, but lets face it, how many Sikhs are actually truly spritual and would give up being able to go drink, go to a club etc (If i'm assuming that such things are not allowed in KHALISTAN). Moreover, I'm certain that not too many people would be flocking to uproot from the UK, Canada and the US to go to Khalistan. So please enlighten, i just wanna know how it would really work if one were to actually create a Sikh homeland. And please be realistic too when you think up your answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So please enlighten, i just wanna know how it would really work if one were to actually create a Sikh homeland. And please be realistic too when you think up your answer. I personally believe that the majority of the Sikhs in PANJAB would move their cause right not they must be released cause its not like they're having a really nice time there thus What i believe is That Sikhs from UK US and other countries wouldn't move but obviously are ALLOWED TO move there however its mainly for the Sikhs living in India..to get freed but how everything is ruled by religion Its completly up to the person living where they live.... if thy want to continue living in poverty ....and suppresion..andhave permission to comitte Kurehats or if they want to move to Sikhistan/SIkhiland/Khalistan or whatever and live in an unsuppresed society, with ffreedom....but not aloud to Comitte Kurehats Thats ther choices for a person to move or not to move to this Sikhiland/Khalistan/Sikhistan :? NO1m's forcing anyone 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyyo Posted November 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 mind you, that's what I mean. aside from the people who already reside in Punjab (which would be the most likely scenario for a Khalistan), not many people would wanna move. And in that case, how could it really even flourish. Moreover, for all we know, a lot of those people who are already in that area may wanna move out if they don't wanna live a quote unquote "SPIRITUAL" life 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palamrinder Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Waheguruji ka khalsa Waheguruji ki fateh! The issue of khalistan is never ending one..... in my opinion the idea of khalistan is more of an ideology rather than one connected to demographic factors...... any place where sikhs live according to full sikh rehat maryada is to be khalistan rather than some piece of land where all vices are present but it's name is khalistan.....moreover the demand for a seprate piece of land is less persistent than to correct our misguided youth....... there is no use of khalistan when we dont have right kind of people to occupy it and run it..... so we should better channelise our resources to save our future generations......... khalistan will follow automatically..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOYce Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Genteman, I m not against bout UR approach towards the Khalistan, But i have a diffrenet viewpoint regarding this. So please dont mind if somethink not liked by you. First of all i think we all lack the exact definition of KHALISTAN. If we define it properly i'll sure the 90% problem/issue of such a question will automatically solved. As per me KHALISTAN is not a specific place where we/sikh/khalsa have to esteblish his/her empire but i think it should be the whole mind whole body n whole soul, It should be the whole planet the whole sky in short it will be the eternity. Khalistan should not be a peace of land but an Idea, an approach, a thinking, a way of living. Khalsaism is not religion as per me but it is a stream , stream to be pure as pure as the almighty GOD. So lets try it, wity JOYce of Him(GOD) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ms514 Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Sat Sri Akal: "If you build it, they will come". Look at Israel (minus the politics and opinions). People from all over the world POURED into the country when its borders were established. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsb Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 that's cuz no matter where a jew went, a jew was persecuted. in all honesty, sikhs live amazing lives across the world 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ms514 Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 Sat Sri Akal: I am going to be the Cliche King at this rate, but... "There's no place like home..." Amazing, yes...but as visitors. Sikhs need a home base, a land from which their power can eminate. We lack that, we lack a centralization and we lack a place to call our own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BikramjitSingh Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 that's cuz no matter where a jew went, a jew was persecuted. in all honesty, sikhs live amazing lives across the world This is a common misconception. Yes, Jews faced a great deal of persecution in previous centuries and were still being persecuted in many countries up to the early 1900s. Prior to Hitler the Jews in Germany could be said to have been living 'amazing lives' but that didn't stop the majority ending up in gas chambers. Before the 1930's Jews in Germany, France and western Europe were well integrated into the societies in each country, much more that Sikhs are at present. But in the end if you don't have a country of your own, no amount of integration will save you when the crunch comes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
