  2. I see what u did there. Swam-i singh I had heard that there was also a time when sikhs would go take ishnaan at harmandar sahib to thumb their noses at the guards. But this woukd be the time when the sarovar was not filled up in the seige. Also that there was a grouo of singhs. And they woukd go each night to light the jot. And would get captures each time...

  3. That should be us Sikhs. Because our culture is heavily influenced by both. Infact, Sikh panth grew in that clash. Thats why some hindus think we r just warriorfied hindus to protect Hinduism. What we did was get the best from the invadors while kicking out the invadors. We kept persian as state language, used their killeh and probably govt system as well. Same with cannon and army. Maharaja ranjit hired the firangis to reshape his whole army and had the best European cannons too. I bet if he had stayed on, he wouldve brought in the railroad system, maybe not the steam engines ships( as we were mostly land locked). Even in history, we can see that Guruji said to get knowledge from everyone. Like sending sikhs to kaashi, writing jaap sahib using both sanskrit and persian words. And in the subegh singh shabaaz singh movie, the brahmins says that persian is a malesch bhasa snd shouldn't be learnt. But singhs disagreed. Knowledge and art should be boundry less. And ppl who sneer and ban something because it is other, are usually suffering from sour grape syndrome. (Ofc sikhs r also the only ones keeping panjabi too. Pakistaan was replacing with urdu until recently when panjabis protested)
