VCU Bhangra Politics
well its appears right now i'm on my 2nd or third allnighter, with about 2-3 hours of sleep. these days are running together and it is hard to distinguish....
what an interesting night, let see so like someone on the bhangra team showed me a link to a Blog , run by a couple of People on MSA or at least associated with them. The author "Blades" writes about how Bhangra Blowout ruined his conference in NY. and he was apparently upset at the fact that half of this crew went to Blowout instead of the conference, I can understand his concern. but then again he goes on some tangent, ranting against Bhangra, and how its stupid and they can't dance and such. he also became very critizing of the Hindu population too... i got kinda upset at him, not at him but rahter his ego, so instead of following the traits of the other people who replied, in not such a nice manner. I tried a religious angle and i tried to well make him realize that he should control his ego, and that well i quote Guru Arjan Dev Ji on how a true Muslim should be.... it was this
To be Muslim is to be kind-hearted,
and wash away pollution from within the heart.
dunee-aa rang na aavai nayrhai ji-o kusam paat ghi-o paak haraa. ||13||
He does not even approach worldly pleasures; he is pure, like flowers, silk, ghee and the deer-skin. ||13||
One who is blessed with the mercy and compassion of the Merciful Lord,
is the manliest man among men.
He alone is a Shaykh, a preacher, a Haji, and he alone is God's slave, who is blessed with God's Grace. ||14|| -Guru Arjun Dev Ji page 1084 in SGGS
i hope i did not over cross my boundaries, but i will see what other say....
