It was 30th March, 1699, the first day of the month of the Baisakhi calendar. It was a special invitation from the Guru, according to the historian Gokul Chand Narang, the congregation numbered more than 80,000 people. A miracle was about to happen. Not in the literal sense of the term, as Sikhism proper doesn't believe in miracles. A new religion with a complete codification of its own was to be ushered in. After ruminating a long time in the Shivalik Hills, the Guru had come to some definite conclusions. Now he was here to raise a new army of "Singhs" (the Lions), who would fearlessly and valiantly defend the out casts, the Gurmit Singh Tiwana downtrodden, the lowly, as well as highly placed priestly Hindu upper class brahmins who were in distress then. According to the gathering of the devotees, the Guru, in no uncertain terms, demanded unquestioned sacrifice on the part of hs followers. Let those who stand for total sacrifice give away their heads for the ideals that the Guru cherished most. A demand for the heads symbolic of total sacrifice at the behest of the Guru was amply responded to till a digit of five was reached. It is no mere coincidence that three of them belonged to lower classes, whose cause the Guru espoused most. These five later on came to be known as "the five beloved ones" ( panj peyaras). They were the first to be baptized by the Guru and 'Singh' was added lo their first name. In turn the Guru asked them to baptize him in the same manner. He considered himself to be an integral part of the new faith. It was resolved that after the 10th Guru, the gurudom in person had to come to an end as the movement had nurtured enough not to seek the guidance of any living being. The 'Adi-granth1- the Holy Scripture was installed as the 11th Guru, and was considered as guiding principles of the Khalsa, who were further ordained to revere, read, recite, understand, practice it in their daily lives and propagate this word of the lord rather than worship it as the Hindus had worshipped their gods and goddesses. The teachings of the scripture was considered as the guiding principles of the Sikh people. The Guru gave his army of the valiant, a special dress very distinct from the commonality to be identified as the servants of God. The Khalsa was directed to be ever ready to fight to bring the reign of God on the earth; to defend the lowly, the destitute and tortured alike. Henceforth, whosoever wanted to join the army of the Guru had to be baptized, would have to abide by the code- of-conduct of a gursikh and wear five K's and be known as Singh (a lion). Thus in the hands of our 10th Guru, the philosophical, cultural and social revolution initiated by Guru Nanak within the complex PUNJABI PATRIKA APRIL 8. 1998 M SYSTEMS COLUMBIA DRIVING SCHOOL FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL JASPAL S.

A distinct monotheistic religion with a theocratic/democratic order was established and it was ordained that henceforth the panth would be guided by the 'Five Beloved Ones,' every one being equal among the equals and the institutions of the sangat, pangat and common 'Langar' for all was created. The cardinal principles to be strictly adhered to by the followers of the faith were, the recitation of the name, meditation, honest living, sharing the earnings with others, worshipping the only Lord of Eternity, wishing everyone well and maintaining good moral character. yirei sees sww) e igdkuHi) wwe ess yws $ wh w wws iz ww feH wwe e wss fee ew eu eu uzwweie hu)s it ww ftiS*, zwz e euws (Hftw) eesus $ feH wwe it wjtwe) sus wit ez ftw few fti feFTSPBST1? fee %w uws e ft wszu itze ftse ftiS" fee ves) t fogsrar efew ftt w. ftee s 10 WW ftlS* 1997 £ wStu fee feu wew efewi fee ft urasr § fefetfar ftte, ynqsft fldtd^' ws sfH^sz) fewssez WWHWWWSte'l 55 ww wftnsus, ejz it zwB % i&ss q&ssez) e wzss wwe fee 1992 e 1997 es its fewi ties igitsiez) w wzss srwe fea uett wut tft ws Hiss itw io sswz)w fee ee)ss)sswz)e fee e 17,000 wuz wwe retearaw US\ VSH srwe e eus % ewsfts sfew ww it fes use wit sfrwF ftr wft fee wwe it ytnsaft wit fes ews fraaw flpiRwT euet ate1 fti §h i£t flefoJte? wtje) eee §€t tte it fti §JT W Vf&KSft fewes eee siiw ei uez ftssit fttfew fee %e sw ss)sw ws uew3Hsw it fiutwei ww s ftRF ftr we) §>ft? sue W fe fee wwe § fewn w wudt Hue § fwwz wit feu witit ws iSar wnwit 3$3Fi eesus wuz) x&s) fts ww ee ups? vfew) ewe) $ wuz) ifwgSt we wtam ew esfesezwuewus Uwsefzwuuwi e3?>- ivix] nw>^ w^ MmaiOfiSSJQHAUilsunAMCtilEBCE m—in I Wc ciin make Auto Insurance buying easy - in 12 easy small payments with -CMqplM ■ Charan Sidlm, Your Insurance .

SANT - an abused title I have, in my current profession as a musician (World Music & Gursangeet), the opportunity to interact with Sikh communities around the world. In my travels I am often hearing of 'Sants' who come around to fleece naive/gullible Sikh communities in the name of religion. I have also heard some rather disturbing stories about them and witnessed some episodes which have convinced me that the prefix 'Sant' in front of a Sikh's name today is a leverage to extort more money out of Sikhs. It does not necessarily reflect the lofty spiritual attainments one associates the word 'Sant' with. I contend that the word Sant applied officially as a prefix to a human being should be either strictly scrutinised before being bestowed or anyone using it should be treated with suspicion. Before condemning me to the fires of hell please read on. It is interesting to note at the outset that during the lives and times of our deh-dhari (human) gurus we had some very highly emancipated souls like Baba Budha, Bhai Tarn, Bhagat Gurdas, Bhai NandLal, Bhai Mani Singh etc. Not one of them was called a Sant. Why has this prefix Sant cropped up in front of the names of supposedly elevated souls? Which authority of the Sikhs bestows the title Sant on a deserving individual? Gurbani speaks of showing respect and showing hospitality towards sants and not criticising lsants\ But I do not think gurbani supports the official prefix Sant in front of someones name. There is a great difference. On the one hand someone is a saintly elevated soul and on the other a Sikh masquarades as a Sant so-and-so, to gain attention, respect and the financial gains which follow. My childhood memories of one particular Sant are good memories. In Malaysia, in my youth was Sant Baba Sohan Singh JL He was a close friend of my father (who was a Granthi Sahib) and lived all his life as a bachelor. He owned no material possessions except a few clothings and lived in a room at the back of the Gurdwara Sahib in Malacca. Never a furrow on his brow, never spoke ill of anyone - a truly gentle, detached and god-loving souL Being a rather wayward youth, my father hoped that. Baba Ji's blessings and advice would put some sense into my thick head! It must have, because my fond memories of Baba Ji are as strong as my memories for my venerable father. I also had the honour of playing the tabla with the Sikh leader, Sant Baba Fateh Singh Ji on his tour of Malaysia in the mid-sixties. He was a great man. Of course we know of the great deeds of Sant Baba Jernail Singh Ji Bindranvale. Sant Baba Sohan Singh Ji always discouraged anyone from referring to him as a 'Sant'. Sant Baba Fateh Singh and Sant Baba Jernail Singh were both Sikh leaders. Sikh leaders yes. But should they have been considered of the elevated status of'saints' as well? Nevertheless, the *Sants' I am concerned about are those who seem to appear from nowhere, demand hospitality (and 'maya') from the populace and collecting all the money they can by ridiculous ceremonies like house-blessings, family blessings, children blessings, fertility blessings, pet blessings, possession blessings or asking fer donations for building some village gurdwara in Punjab. After the extortion of Sikh 'gullibles' they disappear perhaps to reappear in a year or so to collect more. I am also concerned about 'Sant Dera 's' (Sant ashrams) which help to fragment orthodox Sikhism by carrying out their own practices and having their own followings. Some advocate the continuous reciting of Sukhmani Sahib orJaap Sahib or Naam Malas, continuous Akhand Paths, etc. etc. As Sikhs we seem apprehensive about criticising such charlatans. It has been pointed out to me by some 'Sant-followers' that gurbani says that any nindiya (criticism/condemnation) of 'sants' means suffering for the one criticising . I just wish to remind Sikhs that Guru Gobind Singh Ji is reputed to have thrown such charlatans - who were then called 'masands' into boiling couldrons! After my pleasant early youth experiences of 'Sants' in which the likes of Sant's Attar Singh, Isher Singh/Nand Singh also feature, my current experiences of 'Sants' is dismal and thereby my article. Please forgive the personal nature of this article as the best way of driving my point home is to narrate personal experiences. Today, as you travel through Punjab on yatra (pilgrimage) you see these 'Sants'. Some looking very young coming and going in impressive jeeps, body-guards and entourages. I asked one why he was called a Sant. His reasoning was that with the prefix 'Sant' people gave him respect and that allows him to do Panthic seva more effectively. Fair enough! So it has nothing to do with being a spiritually elevated human being, does it? The title is a means to an end. So we cannot possibly equate the word Sant with the Christian equivalent of Saint. It appears to have nothing or very little to do with saintliness these days. We should not then equate it with the word sant as used in Sukhmani Sahib then, should we? A very young looking kirtania (minstrel) calls himself Sant Anoop Singh. Is this not the fiaudulant use of the word Sant to make more money from sangats? He cannot possibly be a Sant at an age of about 20 to 30 years. Of course one might say that Sri Guru Har Krishan was only 5, but let us not compare these people with our gurus. A Sant Makhan Singh is going around in Malaysia and now in Australia collecting for a Women's Shelter in Punjab. He did a 48 day ketha (discourse) of the Sukhmani Sahib in the gurdwara in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia recently. A faithful told me that this Sant had said that if you listen to a 48 day continuous discourse of Sukhmani one would be saved. O yeah! I do not know how intelligent, level-headed, highly educated Sikhs can believe such rubbish. Forty eight days to Salvation! Of course, the Sant spent a great deal of time on the 'astpadian' (stanzas) concerning Sant mehma (in praise of sants) and Sant nindiya (those who condemn sants) to re-inforce his position. In the Sant Dera's in Punjab, priority is given to overseas Sikhs for Sant Darshan (audience with the sant). It happened in two dera's with me. One was a Sant Baba Virsa Singh in Mehrauli, Gadaipur near Delhi It was announced at langgar that the Sant Ji would not see anyone the day we were there. In feet he had apparently not given 'darshan' for two days - doing his tapasya (meditation) no doubt. My wife and a few friends from Punjab were naturally disappointed. I took a bet with them that the Baba Ji would see us. I went up to the sevadar and told him that it was a pity that the Baba Ji could not see us and that we were from Australia. We were leaving when he came running to inform us that the Baba Ji would give audience. We were naturally pleased! The second episode was with a certain Sant Babu Jaswant Singh in Ludhiana. ^9VfHfdal'Kfiff^f^f^f^ffeefrWil^^fr^&/aTVtP^"- tffzjcp'fet)sQ*&&lfe9ynrd'9*&$'fett'd d*ic[t$f%tft$i$ The contents of this publication may not be reproduced either in part or whole without the consent of the copyright owner.

McNally made his comments while speaking on a bill to implement the budget. "On budget day the finance minister stood up and strongly told Canadians that he had slain the deficit monster. Well 1 disagree. The deficit has been fought on the backs of the taxpayers," said McNally. McNally pointed out that in a recent survey of Dewdney-Alouette constituents, 72% of the people who responded said that government spending should be reduced and that only 3% believed that spending should be increased. More than 90% said that they supported the idea of passing legislation to prevent deficit spending. Concerning the debt, 96% of the respondents indicated that they thought the government should set real goals and timetables to lower the debt.

"I see it as an escape clause that could be used at any time for the finance minister to dedicate to any other kind of spending without putting it toward debt retirement," McNally said. "You and I both know that if we treated our mortgages on our home in the same way the government is treating the national debt, we would be hauled off and put into a place not near as nice as this for not meeting our financial obligation," continued McNally. "Canadians wanted the government to cut spending, they wanted tax relief, and they wanted the government to address the debt. What did Canadians get? They got higher spending on the part of the government, higher taxes and a government that is on the brink of falling back in the deficit gorge with any fluctuation in interest rates," concluded McNally.

We resolve to find the surest and safest investment vehicle. We read magazines and books, attend seminars and courses in an effort to find the path to financial wizardry. But there isn't any yellow brick road, and the route to financial security is strewn with pitfalls. Few financial success stories are without episodes of failure. The trick is to keep those failures to a minimum by recognizing the common traps investors fall into. Here are some common mistakes: Not setting goals: It can be difficult to find the right advice or the right products when you're not clear on the direction you want to lead. Setting a goal is fundamental. Consider your circumstances and think about what you want for yourself financially in the future. Define your goals as clearly as possible, and set specific objectives as certain reference points along the way. Procrastination: If you don't have a goal, you're not likely to get excited enough about your financial planning to get yourself started. Don't keep putting your financial future off. Missing the big picture: If your plan is to be to workable, you have to take a step back and look at all aspects of your financial situation and how they interrelate. When many people think about financial planning, they think about investing or retirement, but often neglect considerations such as the tax aspects of their investment decisions, or concentrate on short-term objectives while sacrificing long-term dreams. Fear and greed: Some say that next to politics, investing is the most emotional business around. It can be tough to make objective decisions. Try not to get attached to any business or investment decision you make. Learn to cut your losses and take your profits when f|. opportunities permit. One of the best ways to take the emotional involvement out of the process is to develop a disciplined approach to your portfolio management. Disciplined investors rebalance their portfolios periodically, thus forcing themselves to sell stocks as markets are rising and acquire stocks as markets are falling. To put it simply: buy low and sell high. Avoid Crowd behaviour: Most investors enter the market at the wrong time. Investment fads change from decade to decade, or even year to year, but human nature remains constant. Try to keep your focus on your own goals and needs. Misguided effort: Managing your own financial affairs takes considerable time and effort. Although hiring a professional Financial Advisor does mean some expense, it may pay off by helping you make better-informed decisions. Jessie Sidhu is an Associate Financial Advisor with Midland Walwyn Capital Inc. He can be reached 853-6668 to answer any questions you may have with respect to your investments.

All people involved at this time were volunteers. In 1991 the Surrey Food Bank assisted some 48,000 persons. Where as currently, there are over 100,000 people served per year. Out of which 50% are children under the age of sixteen. To qualify for assistance from the food bank, you must prove the need. Low income earners which include the Unemployed, the elderly and single parents must show rent receipts and proof of picture ID. The Surrey Food Bank has branched out into other areas such as Community Gardens, Community Kitchens, Food Buying Clubs and drop in centers. The Surrey Food Bank continues to share larger donations with other food banks in B.C. The Surrey Food Bank is a nonprofit, nongovernment service. that feeds people who are poor and in need. Over the years the demand for service has increased with the growing population and the uncertain economic conditions. Presently, the Surrey Food Bank is in need of a refrigerated truck to assist with the service growth. On July 5, 1998 at the annual MIRI PIRI PARADE, our community can: -HONOUR the tradition of langar and help those in our community who are hungry. -CONTRIBUTE to the community for the greater good of all people. -STRENGTHEN the bond between cultures that make up the Canadian mosaic. Please support the efforts of the Surrey Food Bank, by acting as community role models and donating funds toward a truck. This donation will clearly demonstrate the cultural value of giving support to those in need. Please join us in making this vision come true for all who are in need. Generous supporters will be recognized on the truck. To donate or get involved in this worthwhile cause please contact Jas CJ596-4321 (local 304) or Brian Favelle #581-5443. SIDHlHlSULTiniG SWlCES G.
