    Ranjit Singh himself wasn't even a religious Sikh. Don't get me wrong, I still appreciate his efforts, and he did a lot. But the true emperor/king of the empire, and any sort of Khalsa Raj is and always will be Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj. If Sikhs manage any raj in the future, it's a must we place SatGuru Maharaj on the highest seat of authority. True Khalsa rule. 

    The 5 thieves won again, the empire was filled with it. Egos, lust and so on. You would think a Sikh Empire would make a lot of it's inhabitants Sikh instead of kissing up to them. I'm pretty sure, Bhai Ram Singh (Who I read was a gursikh and never claimed to be a Guru) split for that very reason. Just imagine the court of Ranjit Singh. Dancers, alcohol, all the typical stuff of a raja. That isn't Khalsa Raj though. It's crazy to see the shift in mentality once gaining power. Just imagine how the raj would've looked like if we had true gursikhs running it.     

    singhs used to drink alchohol in puratan times. Naveen panth prakash by gyani gian singh mentions it. Even sooraj prakash mentions it. theres nothing wrong in drinking alchohol if u believe in puratan granths.

    It is now the new norm & virtually accepted that many western sikh women & men are marrying Hindus, what is the opinion of our sikh diaspora on this issue? 

    Yes I know that many are also marrying blacks, whites & muslims but this focus is on the "more accepted" hindus.

     

     

    Its more common in urban indian cities like Mumbai, bangalore, Dehli than in Punjab and diaspora.

    I been reading about how akali phoola singh was a fanatical strict sikh who lead equally fanatical akali nihung warriors who hated non-Sikh presence and interference in Sikh governance and lands captured by them. Such was their readiness, daring recklessness and desire for war against the enemies of Sikhs that they often defeated enemies many times their number and strength. Whereas maharajah ranjit singh was more strategically cunning, less about spreading Sikhi, more diplomatic and pluralistic in his approach in matters of religion and the political affairs of the state.

    Maharajah ranjit singh made treaties with the british invaders (east india company) in the vain hope that:

    1) one day there will be a right time to militarily strike the Sikh princely states under british protectorate and unite the whole of punjab region under his rule 

    2) if that was not possible then the sutlej border between his government and them would be the permanment border and they will be allies in peace with each other.

    On the other hand akali phoola singh wanted to attack and wipe out the british presence in northern india. And I believe had he had got his way and the Khalsa army was put in his command then the british would have been wiped out within weeks therefore enabling the expansion of Sikh rule to be unchecked and unmatched meaning afghanistan and iran could have easily come under Sikh rule the ruler of persia at the time admitted as such when hearing of battles lead by general nawla and akali phoola singh. The regional powers of the time afghans, Marathas, mughuls were no match for the Sikhs. I believe it was some idle hesitancy of maharaja ranjit singh in not striking while the iron was hot and rather enjoying the good life without having secured his rule is what lead to the downfall of his legacy, the Sikh empire and overall Sikh sovereignty eventually because the British had always eyes on taking over punjab as they needed it in order to get to afghanistan and counter russian empires expansionist plans.

    Sikhs would have lost their raj in 1806 if akali phoola singh was the maharaja. No hate, but a new sikh state wasnt capable to defeat the mighty british. Mahajadi Scindia, a maratha chiefs entire army was routed by a contingent of the well trained brits. Sikhs could have defeated Brits in 1857 if they fought for their own raaj.

    Well once a construction worker(Biharee) made me realized this

    W: Do you know all Sikhs are bihaari's

    Me: How?

    W: Are you all son of Guru Gobind SinghJi?

    Me: Yes

    W: Do you know where he was born ?

    Me: Patna

    W: Where is Patna ??

    Me: In Bihar. oh!

    W: That means he was a Bihari by birth.

    So you all his sons and daughter should be considered Bihari's only.

    Lol! Another lesson learnt this time from uneducated worker.

    LMAO NO. If a gora is born in Punjab does that gora become a punjabi?

    I'll ask again since you went on a mad one waffling. Try to comprehend the question and then read it a thousand times, think about it, dwell on it, ask your husband his thoughts on it and then give an answer, ready go...

    What gives Sikh history eye witness accounts any more weight than other religious eye witness accounts?

    Gurus werent god, but they had the power of god. Plus they choose to die. If they dint want to die, they could have chosen not to die, but they accepted what god wanted. Banda Singh Bahadur had such powers that he can make a person fly. But when he was captured, he could have used those powers, but instead choose to live by gods will.

    The beef Muslims and Jews have with the Trinity itself is firstly it goes against any previous teaching of God being one and one only and secondly there is no evidence to support the concept of the Trinity from the New Testament and plenty of evidence against the fact from that very same book.

    Previous? Whats previous here? According to muslim beliefs? U are talking about Sikhi, in a Sikh forum and giving an example of islamic prophets and teachings of god

    Can you expand on your Gurus bodies not being the same as ours? As far as I'm aware one died of smallpox (whether he took smallpox on himself is another matter), at least 2 Gurus were killed by man made weapons. As far as I can tell they were flesh and blood like us and able to contract diseases.

    If Nanak was God on Earth and he is telling his fellow man to worship God, is he telling them to worship himself or another God?

    If all 10 Gurus were God, you had multiple Gurus living on Earth at the same time, does that mean each of them were God, more than 1 God, how does it work?

    Flesh isnt what matters, soul does. Flesh can be killed, soul and thoughts cant be.
