I'm sorry I'm still quite behind here. I will catch up as soon as I can. Besides not being here for such a long time, this month has been really busy and stressful with tests. Not long ago I had the scary MRI and now today it's...

DJ @FourWalls She may have been administered Local Anaesthesia which keeps you awake during the procedure but you don't feel a thing. Like when you are getting stitched.

I'm still catching up on here. Very behind as I've been absent here for so long. On the 20th of March an MRI was attempted on me. But due to having a Viral Infection at the time, I assume it played part in me not being able to...

DJ @VivaLaDani13 You can ask them how long you will be inside. I did ask to have a sense that it has a time limit and mentally prepare yourself accordingly.

I am perhaps the most religious tolerant person around here. That said, people have emergencies. Deadlines. Health needs. What not. Everybody is not moving onto those roads for window shopping. So the roads are meant for people...

DJ @vandana7 With the amount of population we have, any kind of procession will cause trouble to commuters. But we are also a country where we celebrate so many festivals as you mentioned above. I will also add Muharram and Gurpurab to the list. These are not...

We have ruffled too many feathers already and are continuing to do so, the price of which will be paid by the future generations. So the latest one is UCC or Uniform Civil Code. I think we could do it in pleasant way. But...

DJ @vandana7 Let's take, for example, Sikhi. As per Guru's guidelines, we have a governing body elected by votes from the Sikh community. It makes decisions for the community which does include civil disputes. Each gurdwara, either small or large has such...

DJ @vandana7 A crisis situation is understandable like escaping war, targeted persecution, etc. because in that case, you are literally running wherever you see a clear path. I am against illegal immigration as gave you an example in my earlier response. That's...

DJ @vandana7 You are misunderstanding. Nobody is trying to defunct the UN. But the UN in its current form is ineffective. Countries are seeking reforms in the UN to make it effective. When India (the most populous nation in the world and the fifth largest...

DJ @vandana7 UN is obsolete. India (and Global South) is seeking reforms in the UN. Nobody listens to the UN. And it's the other way around. India isn't preaching freedom of speech. It's the West. For now, it's Canada. India has registered its disagreement with...

DJ @vandana7 True! They don't make the distinction. Prefer to be ignorant. You know 1984 was not a separatist thing. It was a vengeful son taking it out on the whole community. PM was killed in retaliation of the Army attack ordered on the Golden Temple.

DJ @vandana7 I don't know. I just find it strange. The heebie-jeebie moment for me and hubby was when we hired a tour guide to learn the history of the church which was quite old in Goa. After giving us the whole tour, we were standing in the middle of the aisle...

DJ @vandana7 I might offend people but I like visiting temples. However, in the Southern parts, I have seen there is an entry fee which I find objectionable and personally like a jizya tax before darshan. Another thing that is very common all over India is that...

DJ @vandana7 The Khalistani are a fringe minority in Canada. The movement is a hoax. It is just a way to disrupt India funded by Pakistan's ISI. This fringe minority has never been able to infiltrate the Sikh Majority because we literally think they are clowns....

DJ @LadyDuck I understand where you are coming from. You have no knowledge of the history of Khalistan and the Indo-Canadian spat. It has been going on since the 80s. Let me just clarify that I am a Sikh. A Sikh leader and a Khalistani leader are two different...

DJ I think it was an inter-gang rivalry. There were tensions going on between Nijjar's gang and his rival gang. A prominent person from a rival gang was killed and Nijjar was killed in retaliation. And in Surrey where he was killed, gang violence and killings are...

DJ @vandana7 I don't know. Feeding people isn't something we do as a festival thing. We have our systems where we donate money or wheat, sugar, rice, etc. as we can afford to Gurdwara and Gurdwara take care of feeding the people in need. It's a regular practice...

DJ I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs but I took a sip to taste whiskey, scotch, brandy, wine, beer, vodka. So far, vodka did me in. I don't think I will ever try my hand at smoking.
