The more people get attached to Kaam, Krodh, Moh, Lobh and Hankaar, the more develish they become (i.e. Munmookhs). The less they become attached to this the more Angelic they become (i.e. Gurmookhs).

NO!

Sikhism using Angels as a metaphor.

From what I understand, Angels in the Christian sense are nothing more than the old Pagan Gods e.g. Gabrial etc.

Gurmukho,

Recordings from the actual talk will be up on www.SweetSikhi.com

Experts from G.S. Sidhu's Book "Sikh Religion & Islam":

The Sikhs do not believe in the existence of angels. According to Sikhism “Those who live a virtuous life are angels but those who commit sins are devils” (swD krm jy purK kmwvY ] nwm dyvqw jgq khwvY ]- Guru Gobind Singh )

In God’s infinite creation there are different planes of existence and a vast number (not capable of being counted but referred to in Gurbani as kete) of species and beings on this and other planes. It would be futile and unwise to name or describe some to the exclusion of others.

In Sikhism, angels and jinns are seen in the different good or bad qualities which human beings show.
