Sikhism = Energy of life

Sikhism can't be confined by the labels of 'Religion' etc. as it isn't something you can not label. I see it as a sound current and a state of being- a radiance of energy.

The whole world and every single living organism is a sikh as it translates to the word of 'Student', not a person who wears a kara and goes to the gurdwara every now and then because they have to, or is proud to a punjabi/white sikh etc. - when the 'religion' it is not theirs.

The universe and all its creation are students of God, learning new things each second of every day. A christian is ultimately a sikh, a muslim too - students of God, serving God the best they can.

How can we classify actually what a sikh is? Is it a person who although doesn't believe in a God, still gives to charity, serves humanity and lives honestly or is it an amrithdhaari male or female?

Sikhism is simply a catalyst to evoke the love (Pyaar) of a soul to God- nothing else, for when you enter the court of the lord there are no sikhs - just souls in the highest state of ecstasy.

Really hard to explain!

True Sikh does mean student, but the student of Guru ji who is true.

not a person who wears a kara and goes to the gurdwara every now and then because they have to, or is proud to a punjabi/white sikh etc. - when the 'religion' it is not theirs.

:whs:

A christian is ultimately a sikh, a muslim too - students of God, serving God the best they can.

But the Christian s blind and the Muslim only has one eye

How can we classify actually what a sikh is? Is it a person who although doesn't believe in a God, still gives to charity, serves humanity and lives honestly

Guru ji has spoken on this and he says believing in God is number one. Without it people lose there lives in duality even though they practice charity serve humanity and live honestly. Don't bite my head off now, not my words just stating what Guru ji has said.

is it an amrithdhaari male or female?

Their getting closer, but still got to go that extra mile and become Khalsa.

I wouldn't put simply, sounds to restricted then. Sikhi is hard to describe. Sikhi is what you want to become and then you become a Sikh. I practice Sikhi, but do I pracitce it completely not yet, So would I call myself a Sikh? No, but I still follow Guru ji.

FOURTH MEHL: The sublime state of the True Guru is not known; no one knows what pleases the Perfect True Guru. Deep within the hearts of His GurSikhs, the True Guru is pervading. The Guru is pleased with those who long for His Sikhs. As the True Guru directs them, they do their work and chant their prayers. The True Lord accepts the service of His GurSikhs. But those who want the GurSikhs to work for them, without the Order of the True Guru . the Guru.s Sikhs shall not come near them again. One who works diligently for the Guru, the True Guru . the GurSikhs work for him. One who comes to deceive, who rises up and goes out to deceive . the GurSikhs shall never come near him. Nanak proclaims and announces this wisdom of God. One who is not pleasing to the Mind of the True Guru may do his deeds, but that being will only suffer in terrible pain. || 2 || ang 317

FIFTH MEHL: The ghost has been transformed into an angel by the Creator Lord. God has emancipated all the Sikhs and resolved their affairs. He has seized the slanderers and thrown them to the ground, and declared them false in His Court. Nanak.s God is glorious and great; He Himself creates and adorns. || 2 || ang 323

In the dictionary it says Sikhism is a religion originating from north west India with 25 million followers.

Khalsa123 a Christian is not a Sikh. A Sikh got the Naam from Guru. I also believe Guru Angad Dev ji was a Sikh of Guru Nanak Dev ji.

Waheguru my brother, I believe that you have missed the point.

A Sikh is a student of Waheguru, therefore we are all Sikhs.

If you don't understand that is fine, but please do not tell others that they are wrong.

Vaaheguroo Jee Kaa Khaalsaa Vaaheguroo Jee Kee Fateh :pray:

Thanks for you kind comments Phenjee (TejiKaur) :happy: but that isn't simply true, hence others have disproven my points made.

In my post I was trying to clarify that there simply isn't a sikh as we are all students of God. A christian can feel the same love for God as a Sikh feels for God - by saying they cannot - we are limiting what God can do - this is ultimately his universe. Understanding about sikhism is the best gift my soul has ever been blessed with but that is what christians must feel for christianity and hindus for hinduism.

I have always percieved the 'Naam' to be a sound current, to be the vibrations of the universe that are at particular frequency that awakens the soul into loving its creator. However, couldn't we percieve the naam to be obtained by all those? irrespective of their '"religion"? as they still feel the love for God as a sikh feels.

Also to respond to the comment received when I stated that what defines a sikh? Is it an amrithdhaari or an individual who although doesn't believe in God does good deeds etc. Although they may not be a 'Sikh of the Guroo' they are still a student of God's play, hukam - following his command and have a good heart.

I hope I haven't offended anymore or seem even more corrupt. :sleep:

Your Gora brother :lol:

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
