Seeking_Sikhi

Good to know he's showing respect. May God Bless him! :3singh3:

Sorry parji, if the question offended anyone

I don't understand what people mean by "another devisive thread"- does that mean the issue shouldnt be discussed?

The main reason why I asked it was because there are gursikhs in my locality threatening non-amritdharis or non-kesdharis not to do kirtan at the local gurdwara. I just wanted to know what IS the right decree on this.

From my understanding is that Sikhi would promote anyone from any walk of life getting closed to Guru Ji, one way or another...which is the message many of you are promoting...if so then what makes these gursikhs so threatening to my friends? And what should my friends say to them? (if this is the correct interpretation of sikhi)

it is good to clarify things..and like i mentioned earlier that Sikhism is an open religion which welcomes everyone.. and shows them the right path..even The Harmandir Sahib signifies this fact by having four doors which open in all directions..welcoming all.

Lemme ask you a question .. do you love/respect, have faith in your Guru ? if the answer is Yes, then why wouldn't you keep his roop ?? Ok i agree, it may be difficult for you to be an Amritdhari.. afterall it requires a lot of discipline but why give up Kesh and the Turban .. the very identity of being a Sikh.

(Now the question isn't really directed at you .. but in a general sense)

My personal opinion.. if a person is a Non-Keshadhari, I'm against him/her doing keertan on stage.. he may do so at his home if he/she likes..I think it sends a wrong signal to the generation which will grow up watching them doing Keertan.. and more so if you really love your Guru, of whose praises you want to sing then you should obey him as well by being different from the crowd.

starsingh - really man you made me think.. even if you are not an RSS agent .. still you are definitely not True Sikh.

A true Sikh would never question the bhana of his Guru i.e why he chose to be born into a Hindu family and not a Muslim family

The point is He had to come into this world and had to spread the message of Waheguru.

and it is not only Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj but if you look into history .. Budhism and Jainism also had their saints born in a hindu family ..ah well doesn't it sends a message to the world that hinduism is a plagued religion with evils of different kind.. that is why there were different paths carved out to enlighten people ..

The so called hindu punjabi ancestors that you are talking about were also wandering in darkness and were blessed to be enlightened by The True Master himself and may be that is why they gave up hinduism..

I don't disrespect any religion but when someone tries to undermine the foundation of my religion by posting questions in the stupidest/dumbest of manner ... it really surprises me.

Rab changi mat bakshe tuhanu !

I would prefer a proper HINDU or CHRISTIAN friedn who is true to his faith than a FAKE Sikh friend who cant even be faithfull to his GURU.

Bhull Chuk Maafe!

i would agree with you Starsingh

:o :gg: :BL:

I read this post and went into a deep thought .. this is what i was thinking...

Mere Guru ne ik nirala panth sajiya si .. char dishawa te char hi buhe rakhe si .. jo sab waste khule ne .. jo mere Guru de dar te aaya .. usnu ik wakhri pehchan milli ... usnu Guru ne apna Sikh banaya.. sab nu iko hi roop te samanta bakshi.. hor iko hi rah dikhayi .. panj payarean kolo amrit shak ke apne warga maan ditta..

hun kujh log Guru Ji nu kehnde ne ki .."assi tera ditta roop nahi rakhna .. saanu oh changa nahi lagda.. par assi tenu chadna wi nahi .. he mere Waheguru .. me tera naam japna hai par me apne hi dhang naal japanga .. Guruji tuhada ditta roop rakhna bada hi kathin hai, saanu sharam aandi hai,asi modern nahi lagde, ya fir saanu darr lagda hai.."

Hey mere Waheguru! jado eh log apne kesha da katal karde hun ... sikhi di pehchan nu mita dende hun .. te fir eh log Gurudware wich aa ke kirtan karan de bahane ki sikhi nu mittan da prachar nahi karde?? aan waliya nasla enha manmukha nu dekh ki sabak lengiya ?? eh log aap ji de nayare panth diya neeha nu hilana chahnde ne .. me te mere warge hor panthe de dassa da man bahut dukhda hai !!

Kirpa karo .. ehna nu changi mat baksho, ehna de andro haume nu khatam kar deyo.. te sidhe rah paayo...taaki eh log wakayi aapne aap nu aap ji nu samapit kar sakan... me aaap ji to ehi benti karda ha!!

woow .. something i was so ignorant about .. :pray: Tera shukkar hai :vaheguru: .. i don't know but whenever i had no # 13 against my name .. i felt good .. but today you've given me a new perspective to think about.. :BOW:

Beautiful thoughts !! :awesome

The thought of it is sickening.. :<Edited>: :bag:

no doubt .. its true! .. good post

i believe that when a Sikh girl marries a non-Sikh, she is telling Guru ji ki menu tera ditta roop pasand nahi ..menu teri bakshi dastaar, kesh, 5K's .. kuch wi changa nahi lagda ..me apna rasta alag chun leya hai ..hun tu mera Guru nahi ..

It hurts a lot! :closedeyes:

This is so true! i've experienced it that when i was a kid and was innocent with a clean and pure heart, all my prayers were answered ..Waheguru ji ! :vaheguru:
