The Use Of Chairs In Guru Ji's Darbar

[Not2Cool2Argue]

All of Randip's tomato tomatoe comments: "the reason we sit on charis is b/c its indian tradition, didn't have them back then blah blah"

Isn't a throne a type of chair? Also

If u wanna be so modern, let's stop using chaur sahib, maybe Guru Sahib didn't know about fans.

let's stop having a takhat, guru ji didn't know about altars

let's stop putting up chanani's cause umbrellas are better.

let's not matha tek, too old fashioned and makes us look like the fanatical Muslims, instead lets just bow our heads

paper and ink is soooo old, let's matha tek to a kindle with downloaded SGGS, then when we take the hukamnama we don't have to wash our hands

And have u noticed chairs,pews aren't modern, they were used in europe for many centuaries, and pews aren't modern they were used in churches for a long time

So ur just like the pendu's who think anything the gorey's do or use is Modern. All you'll be doing is bringing a western/Christian to the gurudwaras.

As for Sikhs in Delhi having chairs, u wrote that Indian Sikhs are more advanced.Well Indian Sikhs r also the ones who go to deray,believe in black magic, follow fake babeys, and mix up their religion with hinduism. And whoever said that Western ppl start the debates, what about the Dasam Granth debate?

And Goray are discovering yoga to be more healthy physically and mentally. And chonkri is actually a asan in yoga

AK-47: I think the only way to stop the treacle of ppl using chairs from becoming a flood is to become really Modern. And let scientists/engiineers/architects take over: The comment about the disabled sitting in holes got me thinking. What if near all the walls, the floor was lower? So even ifsomebody was sitting in a wheel chair, they wouldn't be any higher than the rest of the sangat. Also the no chair policy should be strenghthened and only wheelchairs should be allowed. The gurudwara should provide wheelchairs that will fit into the depressions made near the walls. Maybe the lower floor can also have tracks for the wheelchair tires.

That way even the disabled won't feel embarrased if they are not higher than the rest of the sangat. Also no healthy person will be able to take advantage of this system. And most won't want to: healthy hoke wheelchair te baina, o-v gurudware no bhai" But of course to do this will involve science, math, and lots of money. Not only will the gurudware have to buy some wheelchairs, but also have to get the floor, maybe even foundations redone. But everyone, especially the younger generation shud keep this solution in mind. And if a new gurudwara is being built, try it out.

So Randip, this is a TRUE example of PROGRESSIVE, MODERN and PRACTICAL idea.

Fateh.

u petty internet warriors - the amount of enerrgey spent on this debate - get a life - get of your warm backsides on those chairs and actually do something for the Sikh cause and kaum - or go do some seva in the Gurdwaras you talk about.
