Hi everyone. A quick question: why do so many Sikhs and Hindus make jokes towards Muslims? Although I'm not a strict Sikh (I'm not amrit daari but I do keep my kesh), I still hate it when my school friends etc. make these "Paki" jokes that everyone laughs at. I don't see the point.

Why can't everyone - Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jews - all live in harmony with one another?

it's how the world works. people slander others to because it makes them feel better about themselves. or it does temporarily, but later it comes down hard on you. when you slander someone, you take the weight of THEIR sins as well as your own.

tell that to your sikh friends. :)

islam isnt a joke people made it into a joke, hinduism isnt a joke people make it into a joke. when these religions started they were pure, then people as time moved on made it corrupt by changing things and altering things, that is why sikhi is the most authentic religion at moment because its the youngest one and not many things have been alterd yet. still alot more to come in the coming years

I will do! :)

But, seriously, they still think that we are superior over Muslims. Personally, I follow what Guru Granth Sahib JI says, that we are all equal and all religions are equal.

Basically, Guru Granth Sahib Ji says that the best religion to follow is the one that practices the naam. If you look at many belief systems throughout the world, alot of them have gone astray from this. Guru Ji does not necessarily say that all religions are equal. There are alot of rituals and practices mentioned by Guru Granth Sahib Ji which make up significant and important parts of hinduism and islam which are not in line with the Gurus teachings and the Guru gives examples on what to do instead. So we can see that all religions are not viewed on par with gurmat.

All religions are not equal. And i'm not saying this in a big headed way. What people fail to understand is, if all religions were equal, then why did sikhi come about? If they were equal and all as pure and structured as each other, there would be no need for the Gurus to give the world sikhi. Sikhi takes back all spiritual philosophy to the roots and makes it simple and easily understood. Again, alot of religions have gone astray from this and have lost the plot.

Mind you, this is no excuse to condemn followers of other religions. Rather, we should try to have mature discussions and raise such points if there is a need.

    • Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.
    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
