Have We Truly Understood Sikhi ?

Interesting quotes from the great Cambridge University-educated philosopher Bertrand Russell (author of Principia Mathematica):

Bertrand Russell was a great philosopher and free thinker and is said to have given Christianity (same applies to Islam and Judaism) a body blow and exposed its absurdities; but even this great man got stuck when it came to Sikhism! In fact he gave up and said "that if some lucky men survive the onslaught of the third world war of atomic and hydrogen bombs, then the Sikh religion will be the only means of guiding them.” Russell was asked whether this religion was capable of guiding mankind before the third world war? In reply, Russell said, "Yes, it has this capability, but the Sikhs have not brought out in the broad daylight, the splendid doctrines of this religion which has come into existence for the benefit of the entire mankind. This is their greatest sin and the Sikhs cannot be freed of it." What Bertrand was most impressed with was that Sikhism does not have a doctrine of evangelism that it does not go out to try to subvert and convert. In some ways he thought that Sikhs should go out and propagate their great faith.

Shame that we as Sikhs can't see our spirituality as Russell did. We have a lot of soul searching to do......Waheguru kirpa karay. grin.gif

Sikh Panth isn't allowed to be 'brought out into the daylight' - we're not going to get what we NEED and WANT and have been PROMISED until we get a REAL Singh in the government. Right now we got hindu's and congress fake "Singhs" struting themselves who don't know NOTHING. This government goes on about how they are against injustice and the rest of that rubbish but they DILIBERATLY cover up the fact that Sikhs have ALWAYS been treated unfairly and never been given what is LEGALLY written. This isn't a matter of given symapthy to Sikhs, its justice.

Sant Baba Jarnail Singh Jee Bhindranwale will come back. We'll take what we was supposed to be given.
