European Journal | Italy: Sikh Cheese Producers

[dilpreet7105]

italians shud learn from this and educate them about the respect of turban and what it means to a sikh ...stop asking them to remove it for some silly things ...like at airport and for license..

[Ariamaluum]

I didn't think Sikh's were all vegetarians?

[appatel]

SINGH IS KING. Sorry good citizens 

[KDKAPOOR]

Very proud of our brothers and sisters who bring credit to their country in foreign lands.

[deenusg]

kudos to all Italians...giving SIkhs a chance at work, worship and live

[RainbowHanryu]

I've only heard of parmesan. The US has crap cheese, like American, god I hate American cheese. Only time it's good is when you can't taste it.

[hammu1994]

singh is king

[ojmoss]

eating meat is inconsistent with the Sikh faith. those who eat meat are usually the ones who also drink alcohol and engage in various other un-Sikh like behavior.

a true Sikh does not eat meat. Period.

besides the countless verses in scripture and janamsakhis it is simply common sense that you don't needlessly harm sentient beings.

[sting125]

did you know that there kilts (tartans) for sikh people that live in scotland? if interested , go to google ant type in 'singh tartan ' , 'sikh tartan' and 'ryan singh'

[TheJattMC]

And ive done alot of research on whether meat is allowed in Sikhism..And what the results show is there is no preferance for meat or vegetairna consumption, its your own choice, you can eat what you wish. So meating eating is not prohibited in sikhism, meaning we are allowed to eat, its our own choice...you can continoue to believe that we r vegetarians, but my mum has the granth sahib at home, but we still cook meat at home, almost everyday, meaning meat is allowed, its your own choice.

[sting125]

sikhs can eat meat if they want. its really their personal choice if they want to or not. Most ppl will eat meat but stay away from beef

[TheJattMC]

yea thats what ive been arguing with jasingh88, he doesnt believe me...and beef we r allowed..beef is prohibited by hindus, but we aint hindus, so we can eat it too..

[sting125]

Yea i know . being a sikh is awesome cause there's not much restriction compare of being a hindu or a muslim . And our believes and such is way different from hinduism and islam. However there are sikhs are in this society which they do not eat meat / egg products and do not share any food with other ppl. I forgot what they were called

[TheJattMC]

yea they r called amritdaries

[ONDERON101]

amritdaries are as far removed from the teachings of guru nanak as possible

[TheJattMC]

It was widely claimed that the Aryans were white people who had invaded India in ancient times,[15] subordinating the darker skinned native Dravidian peoples, who were pushed to the south. - Wikipedia. And if you look at the population of iran they mostly look white/olive only some are brown. Indian aryans r brown cos they intermixed and also the hot weather of india played a big role in darkning the skin..

[JasSingh88]

aryans wer not white, the furthest origins is the middle east. yes intermixings has taken place, also the sun plays sum role. but fact is indians r mostly aryans, as is most of the middle east.

[ONDERON101]

there is no archaeological evidence to suggest aryan migration. the tamil culture outdates dravidian and european cultures by thousands of years. archaeological evidence backs this up

[TheJattMC]

No its not dumb ass..Only halal meat is strictly not allowed...Our 10th guru gave us permission to eat meat...and as it says in the granth sahib..only fools argue over this...which translates too..humans should not argue about what they can and cant eat..they should just eat it...Sikhism is all about being natural as possible, not altering the way god made us right?? Well god gave us certain teeth that are designed for chomping on meat, so god designed us so that we can also eat meat.

[JasSingh88]

Sikhi, its not just abou being natural, its about being civilised aswel, eating meat is seen as a backward ting to do, caveman style. if wanna be totalli natural then we wudnt wear a kacha, (1 of the 5 Ks) think mate, just cuz sum gianis do it dnt mean they r right, there is alot of corruption.

[TheJattMC]

everyone has different beliefs about meat eating u think its wrong to eat meat i think its perfectly fine to eat meat..God created animals right? he created sum animals that just eat grass and created others that need meat to survive (lions, tigers etc)..Now why would god create animals such as the lions that kill and eat other animals if god didnt want this to happen? We r on top of the food chain for a reason,, we can eat both meat, vegetables etc. from what ive learnt meat is allowed in sikhi

[JasSingh88]

ur making no sense! lions etc MUSTeat meat2survive, we dont, we could quite easily survive on veggiz, and infact we'd be much healthier. we are civilized creatures, we as sikhs are meant2help others not consume flesh like a caveman. its very very obious that eating meat isnt allowed in Sikhi, it just wouldnt make any sense if it wer, as the Gurus wud hav contradicted themselves. recarnation, means that the soul previously in ur grandmother cud then be in the animal u just killd to eat! THINK!

[ONDERON101]

as a species we are anatomically designed as omnivores. not eating meat is non conducive to human evolution.

[JasSingh88]

WRONG! im a biology student, its scientifically proven that meat consumption increases risk of hert diease and failure, (as well increasing risk of many other health problems) meat is requird for protien, but this protien can also be obtained from veggi sources (lentils,soya,etc...). eating meat is no longer required in homo sapeins, as we control plant growth (farming etc..) only early in hominid evolution did hominids need to eat meat (to surive seasonality) to give themselves an advantage.

[amishchamp]

Hundreds of years ago when all human race were hunting and eating meat, one of the wise person looked around and found that some animals do eat meat and dont. So what category is he belongs to. Then he further obererved animals around and found the conclusion that those who eat meat, when they drink water with tongue, and those whoe at vegetables, do drink with lips, so then he thought how does he drink water, and he found that with lips, which means his body was made to be a vegetarian.

[PoorRightousTeacher]

North India, Spain Greece, Iran, Iraq, some Afghanistan and some Pakistan is Aryan descendant its where Alexander conquered in

[JasSingh88]

70%of india is aryan decent. ost euasians would have an aryan linage.

[RaKiMuTal]

Sikhs are very hardworking and entrepreneurial. Sikhs in addition to some other communities in the world are an example for other communities around the world to follow and progress as they did. All these Singhs who have risen to the level as is described in this video rightly deserve to be called 'Singh is King'.

[AwakenToYourTruth]

True sikhim preaches earning one's wage and giving 10% away to charity and religious support. The mark of true human beings living a spiritually responsible life.

[VEELA123]

sad dat most of em cut their hair

[icantthink02]

3:29 Paramshit * that must be a typo : )

[kobenbagreat]

u r right

[m1st3rh]

woww...they actually talk in italian...geezus..

am surprised !!!...

[lasog341]

sikhs are international calling them indian is shameful after all it was Indians that genocide the sikhs in 1984 and gave them no justice.

[jaykaurmand]

You know I am amazed at the critisisms that are held towrds other religion we are all one God Chilfren and I don't think that religion or color should get in the way of love and wanting to help each other SIKHS are people who love to help the needy and feed the poor that is what our Gurus taught us and to earn an hard and honest living now if that is not what everyone thinks I would love to know what your gurus or leaders have taught you because the Sikhs wen to Italy to earn an honest living!!!

[InternationlAmerican]

Sikhs generally aren't "indians", just because "India" currently occupies their homeland of Punjab don't mean that they have changed race! If North Africa took over Italy tomorrow, would Italians now become black Africans? Also, compare the average Sikh to the average hindoo indian, Sikhs often look like Arabs or Middle Easterners, whereas hindu indians look like black Afrcians... These are 2 separate races, with little in common apart from "india" passports, a fake British created country!

[hash1212]

please dont compare my people to arabs. we are indian and proud.

[lasog341]

very true sikhs are international

[JasSingh88]

u do knw that the majority of the sikh homeland is actuali in pakistan?

60/70% of punjab lies within pakistani borders. n sikhs dnt luk lyk arabs cuz arabs r generali smaller. sikhs com the race of indo-aryans which is wht most pakistanis, afgans and 70% of india is. the remainder of the indian population is of dravidian decent who are much draker, they are generalli found in mor southern parts of india and sri lanka/bangladesh etc... so to sum up most of out asia is of the same race.

[SREEJIS12]

I was happy to see Indians working abroad and disappointed to see such racist comments from an Indian. Genetic research has shown that all Indians(90%+) belong to the same race. The aryan bullshit theory has been proven wrong.

InternationlAmerican by the way is a jealous paki doin what pakis do. Trying to divide Indians.

[JasSingh88]

in not trying to seperate india, i personaly think that all india/pakistan/bangladesh should be one. its a fact that most of india is classed as indo aryan, maybe my statement of only 70% was wrong, but non the less, people from india/pakistan/afganistan would be classed as indo aryan. what your stating is that the aryan invasion theory is wrong, which it is. aryans are the natural people of Bharat.

nyway i fink if india did unite instead of haivn such segregation we'd be a much stronger nation

[JasSingh88]

Wrong, sikhs along with the majority of other indians all come from the Indo aryan race(as do most pakistanis). the sikh empire was majority hindu, followed by muslim, sikhs only made up 20% of the empire.

in my opinion, pakistan is a british created country, which should be part of india. hindus sikhs and muslims should get along, if they did, then india(including pakistan) would be a superpower.

Shaheed Udham Singh gave his name as Ram Mohammed Singh Azad, showing the unity that once was.

[SREEJIS12]

Aryan theory is very vague and not supported by archaelogical or genetic evidence. It was a brilliant invention of the british. First they made "aryan invasion theory" and now they are tryin to create the "aryan migration theory". Just to show that Aryans and Indian culture came from Europe. The latest is the "Out of India" theory where europeans are Indians who migrated out of India. So basically this aryan thing is totally BS.

[JasSingh88]

the migration and invasion theories are bullshit as u said. but the language we speak is from the indo aryan lineage. nyway at the end of the day, Sikhi is about universal equality, we beliv that all ppl are equal, reguardles of colour,caste,creed,gender,reli­gion etc...

Sikhs are here to help their fellow human beings against opression, and to uphold righteousness for all.

[TheJattMC]

Also brother,meat eating in sikhism is allowed. Guru said what is the difference between the flesh of an animal and the flesh of a plant? Nothing..both feel pain..in order for the human race to suvive we must eat.. Although we r Recomended to eat vegetarian food such as daal, lentils etc, but meat eating is still allowed..My mum has the granth sahib at home and from what shes read meat eating is allowed..we r not allowed to eat halal meat (cos it was killed in the name of god) besides that we r

[JasSingh88]

then why isnt meat served in the Gurdwara? cuz its not allowed. killing an animal for meat is only allowed as alast resort,. we beliv in recarnation thus eating meat would be horrific, as the soul in the animal u hav just killed to eat, may have once been in one of ur relatives. think about it, no way is eating meat allowed, this was introduced by th british in order to split the community. u can read up on persian sources that say how sikhs wud eat the bark off trees rather than harm an animal

[TheJattMC]

its common sense why meat isnt served in the gurdwara, because its the house of worship..meat isnt served inside a church either, that doesnt mean christians dont eat meat...Yes it is recomended that sikhs eat meat at a last resort, but we still r allowed to eat meat we r not compelled at all. Only halal meat is not allowed (ill send u information to ur inbox, check it)..Ive seen gianies eat meat, most sikhs i know eat meat..

[JasSingh88]

im talking about Langar mate, we are the only religion that serve food fo all people as a sign of equality, so tell me y isnt meat served in Langar if its allowed? y is it that if u even brought meat near a Gurdwara there wud b outrage? Guru Nanak said fools argue over food consuption, this means its stupid to argue abou it as the Hindus and Muslim at the tym wud do, but we shoudl be strictly vegiz, as any religion that belives in recarnation wud do.

[TheJattMC]

again like i said before..U are eating langar in the house of god..god made animals, so if we eat something that god made wont seem right...So the langar should be as pure as possible..But if u step outside of the house of god, feel free to eat anything u want. I know gianies that do this..no meat eating inside the gurdwara, but when ever they go out, they consume meat

[JasSingh88]

how can u say its not allowed in a Gurdwara cuz animals are Gods creatures but outside u r? thats ridiculous! God is everywhere, we are ment2 conduct ourselves everywhere as if we wer in th precence of God. u urself have jus sed its not allowed in the Gurdwara cuz its disrespectful to God, fink abou wt ur sayin! how hypercritical wud it b to do dat?! those 'gianis' r corrupt! we are ment2 be pure, and as u jus sed meat isnt pure! use some ur not makin any sense in wht ur sayin its ridiculous!!

[TheJattMC]

wrong brother, There r two theories..one is the indo-aryan theory and the other is the indo-scythian theory. Most historians point punjabi ancestory to indo-scythian ancestory (Ancient persian). Most punjabis are jatts and jatts are indo-scythian. Secondly the Sikh empires population was majoritly muslim.. demographics were 80% muslim, 10% hindu, 10% Sikh..However the Sikh empires army was 100% Sikh.

[JasSingh88]

punjabi is classed as an indo aryan language, ancient persians were also aryans. indians northan population is classed as indo aryan, these are facts.

[TheJattMC]

yea let me explain why there r two different names aryans and scythians..Aryans came to india very early on...scythians came to india on a later date...Aryans came to India so long ago, that most aryan genes have disapeared, due to intermixing with dravidians and other natives, and also due to the role of the weather..Now indo-scythians still carry the west asian middle eastern genes, thats why most punjabis can easily pass for middle easterns, due to some of the central asian genes still presnt

[JasSingh88]

yes i knw this, Jatt ancestors are scythians, but u tell me where are they from? there from greece/turkey/persia, from exactly the same place as aryans. the aryan gene is within 70% of indias population, particularly in the north. middle east and south asia have an aryan linage, although punjabis generally look to be bigger in stature than middle easterns, and south indians.

[TheJattMC]

Yea its the same place but its a different time frame...Aryans and scythians came to india at different periods..Aryans came and mixed with the locals...and over generations most aryan genes have disapeared in india..scythians came at a later date so the genes were slightly aletered (look up the indo-scythian kingdom), even today punjabis still have alot of west asian genes..And u know gypsies of europe or romani people they r believed to be decendents of jatts and other punjabi people..

[JasSingh88]

how can genes just disappear? genes will only disappear from a community if those genes are disadvantageous to the community. mate i study biology, id knw abou genes.

[TheJattMC]

genes disapear, if the aryan genes didnt disapear dont u think we wud still be white? if ur a biology student u wud know weather especially hot weather does alter genes,,,also intermixing with other races mixes genes...

[JasSingh88]

exactly genes can alter but they dont disappear. y wud we b white? the aryan ppl wer light brown, they traveled to europe and intermixed with the white anglos etc.. thus westerns are white. we are brown, which is the original colour of aryans, aince they were from the indian subcontinent, and persia.

[LPicklette]

Pay it forward...

I liked hearing how well everyone got along. Particularly the Italian who said he likes to hire members of the same family. My parents came to Canada in the 50s, and took the same types of jobs as the Sikhs are taking today in Italy. And the better employers took on family members, which helped a lot in the difficult transition to a new country. Great to hear the Italians doing the same!

[tokri3]

sikha haveen apart of italy since the first world war

[likwidlunch]

Dear lasog341:

I have read your posts and observed the following:-

1) if you are for real- then coherent, logical arguements and reasoning is something you are obviously incapable off;

2) if you are just yanking chains- then you need to be a little more intelligent about it.

Ciao-

Likwidlunch

(an Italian speaking Sikh)

[lasog341]

what are you talking about? India has now started beating up people celibrating nonhindu holidays. I like sikhs I love Italians but calling a sikh an indian is shameful sikhs don't exist in India they do not even have a seprate identity...

[likwidlunch]

oh yes- so "India" is a person: I think you need a reality check- which planet are you on?

[Kalaswalia]

Sikhs and vegetarians !! U gotta be kiddin' !! LOL ! And Sikhs love a drink too !

[JasSingh88]

teh Sikh religion does not allow any type of intoxicant (including alcohol) and neither does it allow the consumption of flesh. Punjabi culture on the other hand has a very different outlook on drinking and eating meat.

[Grewal792]

SHER E PUNJAB!!!! i love this truth of SIKHI is finally being shown

[amymint5]

He is so nice to know that the Major has appreciated workworking Sikhs who no doubt be give the chance to live a better life and standards than in India?...what a lovely Country.....would love to visit the Gurdwara one day......Sikhs have shown their respect and it is respect that they get back....

[supinder]

Wonderful, I know its a little self indulgent to be pround of ones ethnic group; but seeing fellow Sikhs prosper and bring acclaim to the religion always makes me happy.

The power of the GGS is someting to behold.

[xlDevzlx]

Be at peace in your ignorance lasog. Your accusations are extremely hilarious (seems like youre living in the past). The word terrorism is a joke; hypocrisy is rife in many nations that point the finger at others. As for the Prime minister being a hindu a puppet (whatever that means) well of course he is HES INDIAN. Hinduism is only the biggest religion in India! Isnt George Bush and Barack Obama Christian? By your logic they should be a puppet a Christian(again whatever that means)

Interesting video...I never knew there were Sikhs living in Italy.

[singhisking01]

ahaha wow, that was awesome seeing sikhs speak italian!

[chennamangali]

sikhs r strict vegetarian,dont smoke or drink!!!!

With respect,the sikhs r boisterous friendly people & know how to party....!

[jigyasu1]

It is not for nothing that I have always compared Sikhs & Punjabis to potatoes. Like potatoes, they fit in with every landscape, with every community. Whenever there has been a problem, it has not been created by them, but by the host country being hostile to them or by those who have attacked their identity & self respect. Sikhs have always been the flag bearers of our traditions even while espousing change.

[wiscol123]

good video on how ethnic communities can successfully integrate in a European country

[lasog341]

yes in the west we are respected in india they treat sikhs like dogs they make fun of our langauge and massacred thousands of sikhs then elect those who done it in power. God bless the west!!!

[amishchamp]

lasog, you are really negative. Go behind the craetor of this video and try to remove the name Indian after each sikh. Do not forget that your identity is as Indian, so either move on by ignoring mistakes done in past by x-politician and learn to respect to those who are happily leaving in India (sikhs).

[DBhavnani]

Reply to Lasog

Yeah, yeah, people on this forum are really gullible and would actually believe your asinine and hateful comments which are at best rantings of a deranged, bitter man who is trying unsuccessfully to bad mouth India....

Lasog 'doth protest too much, methinks'.

Extremely informative. Captures the pioneering spirit of the Sikh people. Interesting to hear Sikhs speaking in Italian.

When the children of these immigrants turn out like Sunny Leone, Italy is going to be one hot nation!

i didnt knw so many sikhs r in italy as well , nice , proud 2 be a sikh

Indians is one of the most beloved ethnic group for a western country. Peaceful, quiet, hard-working!

[timewilltell7]

thats not true lasog - indias prime minister is a sikh - stop being ignorant and victimising yourself - 1984 was done by indira gandhi who was a closet muslim anyway - thats why she went into amritsar too - research this - she had a muslim marriage but refused to change her name for political reasons and she was a hater- chekitout-everything is not always as it seems - 1984 was a set up-generally hindus and sikhs get on cos we both believe we r all part of one infinite conciousness - regardless

[lasog341]

indian priminster is a puppet a hindu with a turban..
