We all love Sardar jokes. But do you know that Sikhs are one of the hardest working, prosperous and diversified communities in the world. My Indian friend told me about the following incident which I wish to share with you. It has had a deep impact on my thinking...
During last vacation, his few friends came to Delhi. They rented a taxi for local sight-seeing. The driver was an old Sardar and boys being boys, these pals began cracking Sardarji jokes, just to tease the old man. But to their surprise, the fellow remained unperturbed.
At the end of the sight-seeing, they paid the cab hire-charges. The Sardar returned the change, but he gave each one of them one rupee extra and said,
''Son, since morning you have been telling Sardarji jokes. I listened to them all and let me tell you, some of them were in bad taste. Still, I don't mind coz I know that you are young blood and are yet to see the world. But I have one request. I am giving you one rupee each. Give it to the first Sardar beggar that you come across in this or any other city.''
My friend continued, "That one rupee coin is still with me. I couldn't find a single Sardar begging anywhere."
MORAL:
The secret behind the Sikhs' universal success, is their willingness to do any job with utmost dedication and pride. A Sardar will drive a truck or set up a roadside garage or a dhaba, put a fruit juice stall, take up small time carpentry... but he will never beg on the streets. -- If a man like Muhamed were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness. - George Bernard Shaw Civilization begins with order, grows with liberty, and dies with chaos. - Will Durant Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance. - Will Durant Democracy is a form of government that substitutes election by the incompetent-many for appointment by the corrupt-few. - George Bernard Shaw Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. - G
