  2. Yeah he demolished the ramgharia qila ramrauni qila, but I'm pretty sure it wasnt the biggest, the biggest and mightiest fort in the region was/is Gobindgarh Qila. Which was initially built by the Bhangi misls and when he captured Amritsar from the Bhangis he further fortified the fort. Ramrauni qila was a inner city fort. While Gobindgarh qila was built outside the walled city of amritsar for the protection of the city, it was like the first defense a invader would of faced. Though he demolished some he did keep some and further fortified them, like gobindgarh qila. Amritsar had a wall built around it by the bhangis and he added another stronger wall around it and a moat. It's a shame we dont hear much about the sikh misls, for most sikhs sikh rule started with M.Ranjit singh, when the misls had already been ruling much of Punjab since around 1750s maybe even earlier? Tbh when the sgpc demolished the bungas around harmandir sahib they only made it more weaker, these bungas were a defense and were tightly built together, very congested. Had these bungas still been there then to tanks would of been able to enter harmandir sahib complex! It would of been impossible. These bungas also used to have many escape routes. By demolishing them and building a wide entrance they only made the defence weaker. The bungas would of also provided many spots for the singhs to shoot from, that was the whole point of the bungas People in the past were a lot more intelligent and strategic when it came to building this stuff.

  3. Brother Koi, it seems you have not recognized what means to be a muslim. They have been brainwashed in such a way right from their day 1 of birth, that no matter howsoever one may reason with them, they will never ever accept, for the moment they recognize how much damage and atrocities they have inflicted upon mankind, that very moment they will step back in shame for belonging to such a diabolical culture. Not that the rest of the world does not respect them for what they are, but, they themselves by harming others without any reason, they are disliked as "people".... the history is the proof, see how many absurd wars, how many killings, just in the name of such an entity, who they themselves have not seen but yet they are induced to believe, that they have to kill others....what a disgrace How can they even call themselves religious? That too, when the base of any religion is mercy, forgiveness, and tolerance towards all, irrespective of caste, color, and creed. And this is what sikhee can be proud of, we are taught that all have His Light, even in SGGS, the divine is named as Allah and Khuda, which are just names like any others, of that creative power, which we call Satnam, God, Lord, or Waheguru among so many others. What else can one want? So much respect given to the name of their divinity, yet they still thirst for blood. How can someone fall so low? For example, we all know the Sun is high in the sky, isn´t it? So what difference does it make by saying or repeating the sun is the highest in the sky? Will the sun fall down or get to a lower level by not saying so? It would be stupid, isn´t it? So if anyone says Allah hu Akbar, well that is fine, but by others not saying so, that power of Allah, God, Waheguru will not diminish, nor will ever fall down, for it is great by its own nature, and not by buttering it. Just as we see in the Bani: aapeenay aap sajeeo, apeenay racheeo Nao The sun is as it is, so is that divinity, it is great by itself , it does not make any difference to it, whether we say anything or keep quite, it will nevertheless give its Light upon all in same quantity and intensity. in a similar way, whethe we say anything or not about that supreme truth, it will not stop giving its love, forgiveness or mercy on the souls, for all souls are a part from IT, for all are as rays of that same One Sun. This is the greatness of Sikhee, it broadens one mind and makes softer our hearts, for in all is present His Noor. It is fine you are giving this guy a chance, but when Guru Sahiban themselves came on earth, and could not affect with positivity their hearts, how can any of us limited beings try to make them see their reality of evilness? They inflicted pain on THEM, so it is better to leave them alone as they are, we are not to change them in any way, except that of making them realize, that they are a part of this world, so they have to become good human beings first, and be respectful to all others, for unless one is not a good human being, one can not enter heaven. If one´s aim is to merge and become one with that Supreme truth, which is an infinite Ocean of love, mercy, and forgiveness, which means total purity, so how can we ever become one with IT, by killing and hurting others deliberately? It is utter madness. It is such a pity, how these people are madly influenced into wickedness, there has to be a deep reform and throughly cleansing in their lookout towards others. Congrats anyhow Koi for your good intentions, let us now see how does he/they respond .

  6. @brotha - you make an interesting point. However, the main reason for my stance is simply to cut through the crap and get to the point. The more we dance around the topic, go off topic and make personal attacks, the more the "opposition" (and i use that term very loosely) gains the opportunity to play the victim card. Which is why if you go through the posts where I respond to @MuslimNeighbour, you'll see that I don't even pay attention to his silly comments and insults, and go straight to answering and refuting his points. I don't want to make this in to a "Sikh vs Muslim" thing. Anyone is welcome on this forum to ask any questions on Sikhi. Period. In our traditions, there is a "kookar drishti" (dog-sighted) and "sher-drishti" (lion-sighted). When you hit both with a stick, the dog will attack the stick, whereas the lion goes straight for the attacker. In the same way, be like the lion and go straight for the points and stick to the topic. Don't be like the dog and fall for the insults. That's exactly what people like that want. So that's why I said, let's do it properly. No animosity, no antagonising, no insults, no attacks, no excuses. Pure and simple intellectual discussion. @MuslimNeighbour, ready when you are...

  7. @MuslimNeighbour - in many threads you have been answered again and again, but you continue to derail the topics each and every time. Now, in all fairness, that's not entirely your fault, we all do it. And i agree with you, that this is a Sikh forum, and your questions about Sikhi should be answered here without you being personally berated. 100% agree with you on that. So, here's what I propose: YOU pick the question, YOU pick the topic, YOU start the thread. And, without descending in to any personal attacks, we will collectively answer them for you. You can't get much fairer than that. You've now been given this opportunity. Never again in the future say you weren't given a chance. Look forward to your response... And to the rest of the sangat ji, please try and keep it civil and stick to the point. It's such a playground debate tactic when this guy goes off point and we take the bait, then acts like he's being attacked by everyone. Intellectual points made with proof will put this "guest" to sleep ?

  8. Guru Nanak Dev Ji's parchaar is not lost in time.It did not take 10 Gurus to come up with the 5ks.The 5ks are part of the recognition of the Khalsa Panth.The Khalsa Panth,as mentioned by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, was established on the order of God.It wasn't the case where it took 10 Gurus to simply come up with it.The truth is that the 5ks and Rehat Maryada of the Khalsa Panth was given to the Sikhs when God felt it was right.The evidence from Sikhism is Agaya Bhaiye Akaal Ki Tabhe Chalayo Panth.This translates to Upon receiving the order from God,the Khalsa Panth has been established.

  9. Waheguru did not make an error.The people of earth did.They had forgotten the ways of God.Thus,God sent multiple messengers to spread the message of God the truth.But they themselves got trapped in the worldly affairs so that was THEIR error not Gods. Now about Satan,In Sikhism we acknowledge the existence of such creatures for example devils like Satan,Angels and other beings.But we do not believe them to be as powerful or more powerful than the Supreme Lord.

  12. As per above, acceptance of your life, of your Karam of reality brings peace. Try to be happy and grateful for what you have, even the small things like food, shelter etc. I’ve just come from a place where life can be such a struggle for many, many don’t have enough food, live in rooms with 4 others etc. We in the west are extremely fortunate in so many ways. And read Gurbani and apply it to your life practically ie, Truthful living. Bani is the Guru and Guru is bani.. the gyan is there for your taking. Learn to listen to and trust your intuition and accept that He is all pervading and is everything and everyone you see and all that you don’t

  16. the Ka-baa's priests were accepting booty from invasions and murders in order to 'cleanse' it and the perps of the sins commited and Guru Nanak Dev ji taught Qazi Rukh uddin and the other scholars there they Allah does not accept such haram offerings , that thereis no act that they could do to remove the sins commited; he advised them to never accept such offerings if they wanted to not incur Allah's wrath and to advise those bringing such offerings to stop their crimes . The qazis were told that Allah had no direction of address, that he lives in the heart of the pure , that living via an honest livelihood is the true way to practise islam , to not covet or steal from others (i.e. ignore hadiths that invoke corruption as permissible).

  18. We humans complicate things. Complication is an endless and bottomless well of negativity. Live simply, accept that you have nothing and are nothing ( We’re all just One), relax and become more peaceful, reacting to negativity and adversity with an evolved psychology such as that which the Gurus practiced (Gurbani applied, Truthful living). You can live truthfully practicing Gurbani even whilst in the midst of immense maya and temptation. Even in a hellish realm, you can live in the light.. it’s the psychology that you Choose to practice.

  23. It's normal to wonder and assess and re-assess. Where you go from there is up to you. What does your inner voice say? Can it be trusted, or is it leading you astray? As a Sikh you should be thinking, "What does the Guru expect from me?" Can you fulfil those expectations?

  24. Meditate on the only True Nirbhav being, then all your fears will vanish. That is why Fifth Patshahee tells us: ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਭਉ ਨ ਬਿਆਪੈ ॥ Prabh Kai Simaran Bho N Biaapai || Remembering God, one is not touched by fear. ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਦੁਖੁ ਨ ਸੰਤਾਪੈ ॥ Prabh Kai Simaran Dhukh N Santhaapai || Remembering God, one does not suffer sorrow. ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕਾ ਸਿਮਰਨੁ ਸਾਧ ਕੈ ਸੰਗਿ ॥ Prabh Kaa Simaran Saadhh Kai Sang || The meditative remembrance of God is in the Company of the Holy. ਸਰਬ ਨਿਧਾਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਹਰਿ ਰੰਗਿ ॥੨॥ Sarab Nidhhaan Naanak Har Rang ||2|| All treasures, O Nanak, are in the Love of the Lord. ||2||

  25. 1A. Yamdoots beat the mind and as the soul is caught in a tight knot with the mind, it also suffers. 2A. True 3A. Our consciouss is the soul, and as said above, each time the souls moves into a new life, the mind goes along. The only way to free ourselves and untie our strong knot with the mind and reunite our soul consciousness with Him, is by His kirpa and His bhakti. That is why the Bani says: Prabh ka simran, man kee mael jaae. It is only by His simran, that we cut off our ties with the dirty mind and its evil tendencies , sanskaras, karmas. As long as the mind is tied with the soul, we are stuck in the cycle of births and deaths, only when we throughy cleanse our mind from its dirt, the soul becomes mindless, thus no karma, and the consequence is that we move upwards like a bullet to merge in our Origin, Waheguru Akal Purukh, that also, not by our merits, but entirely by His kirpa.

  28. I’m going to wade in here. I’m a doctor. I’ve done my stint in obs and gynae. Let’s say you terminate this child and have another one. Baby appears to be born perfectly healthy. Autistic traits don’t show until around age 12 months so it would be that long until anyone would notice an issue. What then? Do you plan to kill your child? Termination of a pregnancy is not problem-free either and complications can develop. Would you be happy if your wife died because you pushed for a termination? Your wife has a right to carry her child to term too. You can either choose to stand by her or run away. At least find out the cause of the fever.

  29. Wow! Try being supportive and caring to the wife Ajeet. How you're behaving can only negatively affect your wife's mental and physical state too. Stressing her even further, can make her hormones and stuff like cortisol flood her body even further, this can also negatively affect your unborn child! ANd you'll be the cause of that! I thought even the dumbest fool knows that being super supportive and kind to the missus during pregnancy is a must. That in itself can also actually help speed up recovery from any ailment like the fever you mention. Seriously, reading your post literally had me gob-smacked. As other people mentioned, don't go expecting the worse, and don't do that typical desi thing of creating a negative, toxic environment in your house because you can't get a lid on your own emotions.

  30. It isn't easy for me to say, just because a child is born without any defects doesn't mean you won't face other difficulties with them in the future. A child isn't an object that you can dump because they don't fit you perfect version of the world, my elder sister's son has Autism, she never dumped him, she never looked at him as if he was a financial burden, I'm sorry man, but you so full of <banned word filter activated> it's unbelievable, you ask people not to judge you then you go and post all your issues on a public forum, crying more tears than your wife, give me a break, go and speak to women you have lost their children during a pregnancy or at the moment of birth.

  31. When I was younger (teenaged) I used to wonder why gurbani would talk of the mind wondering and having 'doubt' about Guru/God etc As we get older is it natural to have this battle with the mind ? Is it the 'innocence' of childhood that means you just have a stronger faith ? Is it because you develop a deeper mind that actually works against your own faith as you get older (I mean say between aged 18+ into middle-age). I'm not saying I am agnostic, but I find myself battling and questioning my mind a lot. Is it because life is 'complicated' at this stage with lots of responsibilities? I have the impression from around age 60+ the opposite happens and the mind becomes more like it was when in childhood Has anyone else found the same, or even completely different ? Which Bani will help my mind stay on track ?
