Just Push -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down; his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all of his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: "you have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn't moved." Thus, giving the man the impression that the task was impossible and the he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man. "Why kill myself over this?" he thought. "I'll just put in my time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough." And that is what he planned to do, until one day he decided to make it a matter of prayer and take his troubled thoughts to the Lord. "Lord," he said, "I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?" The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done. Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push. And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back sinewy and brown, your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. Yet you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. This you have done. Now I, My friend, will now move the rock." At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just a simple obedience and faith in Him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves mountains. When everything seems to go wrong ... just P.U.S.H.! When the job gets you down ... just P.U.S.H.! When people don't react the way you think they should... just P.U.S.H.! When your money looks "gone" and the bills are due...just P.U.S.H! When people just don't understand you ... just P.U.S.H.! P.U.S.H. = Pray Until Something Happens

Yeah what a way he supported the Sikh Kaum, In 1984 when everyone was mourning about the recent events he was busy starring in Bollywood movies! <_< -
Guru Tegh Bahadur Jee Maharaj gave their life for the Hindu kaum and how do we remember their shaheedi? By making jokes about hindus? 'Recognise The Whole Of Mankind As One' - Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Jee Maharaj.

Shastar and Gurbani - equal respect. Just as the concept of Sant Sipahi (Saint Soldier) is meant to be pracisted equally by Khalsa so is this concept of equal respect to Shastar and Gurbani.

ਜਾਣਹੁ ਜੋਤਿ ਨ ਪੂਛਹੁ ਜਾਤੀ ਆਗੈ ਜਾਤਿ ਨ ਹੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Jāṇhu joṯ na pūcẖẖahu jāṯī āgai jāṯ na hė. ॥1॥ rahāo. Recognize the Lord's Light within all, and do not consider social class or status; there are no classes or castes in the world hereafter. ॥1॥Pause॥ ANG 349 ਖਤ੍ਰੀ ਬ੍ਰਾਹਮਣ ਸੂਦ ਵੈਸ ਉਪਦੇਸੁ ਚਹੁ ਵਰਨਾ ਕਉ ਸਾਝਾ ॥ Kẖaṯrī barāhmaṇ sūḏ vais upḏės cẖahu varnā kao sājẖā. The four castes - the Kh'shaatriyas, Brahmins, Soodras and Vaishyas -are equal in respect to the teachings. ANG 747 ਬ੍ਰਹਮਨ ਬੈਸ ਸੂਦ ਅਰੁ ਖ੍ਯ੍ਯਤ੍ਰੀ ਡੋਮ ਚੰਡਾਰ ਮਲੇਛ ਮਨ ਸੋਇ ॥ ਹੋਇ ਪੁਨੀਤ ਭਗਵੰਤ ਭਜਨ ਤੇ ਆਪੁ ਤਾਰਿ ਤਾਰੇ ਕੁਲ ਦੋਇ ॥੧॥ Barahman bais sūḏ ar kẖayṯarī dom cẖandār malėcẖẖ man soė. Hoė punīṯ bẖagvanṯ bẖajan ṯė āp ṯār ṯārė kul ḏoė. ॥1॥ Whether he is a Brahmin, a Vaishya, a Soodra, or a Kh'shaatriya; whether he is a poet, an outcaste, or a filthy-minded person, he becomes pure, by meditating on the Lord God. He saves himself, and the families of both his parents. ॥1॥ ANG 858 http://www.sikhiwiki...and_practise%3Fhttp://www.sikhiwiki...index.php/Caste

Why couldn't you post it on the status update itself? What was the need to discuss this here? Why not discuss the issue with the person himself...??
