Yogi ji was responsible for bring Sikhi to the West in a big way; he did something that no other Sikh has been able to do since the Gurus promoted Sikhi in the 1400s-1700s. Please don't take this as an attempt to elevate yogi ji! Now, as humans no one is perfect. So never look for total perfection in any human; only God is perfect.

Learn from the good things that yogi ji did and discard things that you don't like. I believe that he was a good Sikh and that he promoted Sikhi well but he is not my Guru - My Guru is Guru Granth Sahib. So if you want to learn about life and spirituality then read and understand the holy Granth. However, you can also learn from yogi ji and other such leaders as they have a lot to give to the world. Hope this helps; but if you have any further questions, please feel free to write again. Guru dee fateh, Hari Singhtalk 14:49, 22 November 2010 (EST)

BABA BANDA SINGH JI BAHADUR

Sir Sat Sri Akal, I wish to bring to your notice that some of the paintings on Baba Banda Singh Ji Bahadur in your site has a helmet/ headgear along with other items such as chest or arm sheild . This is totally wrong and against Sikh ideology. Recentlly there had been a such debated issue relating to a new structure coming up named as "Fateh Minar" at ChapparChiri to make a memorial of the Sirhind victory.

Whoever artist had made such painting might have been ignorant of Sikh culture/ Sikhi attires etc OR there could have been some discrepancy in facts.

Pl. do the needful to scrutinize the paintings with head gear and remove from the site so that it doesn't give any further false indication to anyone visting the site.
