Why have some resorted to making this a religion.
One Panth, One Aim, One Love = Khalsa
You asked this question........ Guru Peareo behind this there is a story of several hundred years.... Main reason: some of us ....not just some of us more than 60% think that Sikhi is their property. Like if some one's father is sikh then he is Sikh without taking Amrit, without keepin "Kes", without having Kakar.. They are still Sikh if they spend nights with random girls n they r still sikh if they consider those Sikhs still untouchables who have taken Amrit n tryin to be in rehat maryada comletely....
But Nahin Guru peareo Sikh's definition is something else... Sikh is that who has givin his/her head to Guru n left him/her self in the feet of Guru n left his "Duniavi-Jaat"
coz GurBani Says " Hamri Jaat Paat Gur Satgur ham bheteo sees gur ke"
Dear Saad Sangat Ji personally I don't bring myself into this sort of discussion but yesterday I was talking to my friend in UK he was so disappointed He is Ravidasia... He said "Veer I don't like Sikh Religion" when I asked why he replied...."Veer I love all Gurus but I don't like SIkhs at all n I don't want to be Sikh at all" coz few days ago a person who works with him siad "Hun Chamar apni jaat lukon lai Sardar Ban jande ne"..... n he told that person call himself Jatt-SIkh he goes to massage parlors or night clubs n take alchohol etc... n said" na veer main Ravidasian hi theek han n wnat to stay away from these sort of ppl"...
Now I ask to you saadh sangat ji... did Guru Ji gave us this lesson to treat others... Is this the way of doing parchar of Sikhi????
Gursikh must be so Humble , polite, filled with love n calmness so that if anyone do darshan of Gursikh then must ask him/her where did get these all things from!!!!.. Whoever see him/her must ask who are u!!! n mustask "Please tell how can I get these things to make my life easy in this Kalyug....
But Sorry to say its very very very very very rare.. We wear kakar wear bana read bani do nitneem but just "Bahron chitvian"
One main thing I would like to say about my friend that he is doing bad : if someone call him chamar then he must not leave Guru Granth Sahib Maharaaj ji... but our deuty is to Give them warmness of Guru-sikh Love coz this love is the only way to bring them back from the cage of those "Pakahndi 108 Sant, Pakahni saad" who sit equal to Guru Granth Sahib ji n do beadbi of Gurbani ....
Coz Guru Sahib Him self give them love.. like we can see "Rang Reta Guru ka Beta", "Bidhi CHand sheena Guru Ka Seena"
what a great respect for them.. what a great love for them....
Personally I don't say mistake is on one side only... "They also don't read bani".. Even if they just read those 40 Shabads of Bhagat Ravidaas Ji then they can understand what the actual message of these shabads is!!!!!!
But Still for us as Gursikh we must bring them back with love n just love...
If we see the first battle of Sikh History which was fought in Amritsar Between Mugals and Sikhs then we can see who were the Sikhs: they were all from lower casts... Evan Mugals were laughing that now these ppl of lower cast will fight with our victorious army.. But Naam Akaal purakh Given by Guru Sahib made them so strong to through those mugals away from Bettle field...
Saadh Sanggat Ji Bhull Chukk maaf Karna.... but don't you think as a Sikh we must give them their 100% first, like try to bring them back n try to explain them the meaning of those 40 Shabad n I think if we will start talking to them with Gursikh pyar then they will automatically kick those Pakhandi Saad..
coz I think who ever on this site is not from India can understand the meaning of racism.. like if some one say anything to us due to our religion then we feel bad and if our brothers n sisters call those Ravidasi ppl as chamar then don't you u think that they also feel bad...
So in the end both sides are not right.. but as Gursikh its our deuty to try to bring them back first.. if they don;t listen then leave them with their own stuff... coz if some one want to die n u are tryin to save them but they still want to die then u can't do any thing... meaning of death here is living without true Guru (Poora Guru)... coz if they don't want to under stand "Har So Heera shaad k kare aan ki aaasss te nar dojak jaenge satt bhakhe Ravidaas" then its up to them only....
Bhull Chukk maaf karna ji...
Please do advise if i m wrong some where!!!!
