wake up

[Mehtab Singh]

The biggest problem with us is that we think others are like us too. Wake up Khalsa jee, others are NOT like us. We have a Pooran SatGuru who gave us character, who taught us to be just even in times of strife. Can the others look up their history and say the same about those they worship? Wake up, don't expect others to have your level of deen-imaan, your kind of integrity, your type of Khalsaaee kadar-keemat. We have our Gurdev Pita jee Sahib-E-Kamaal Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jee Maharaj, the one and only personality on this planet who did bhagti in bir rass. Anyone else qualifies? NO! Wake up, no one else has the sense of belonging the way we do, we belong only to our Gurdev Pita jee. Who do others belong to? Whose tokens of love do they carry the way we carry our kakaars? We are blessed with a saroop because we carry a responsibility. Does anyone else qualify? NO! Wake up! Stop trusting just about anyone because they are nice from time to time. Stop expecting others to be the way you are because you are a different breed since you are to abide by a mandatory norm. When Dasmesh Pita jee said that Khalsa is to stay niyaara, it also means that no one else is like the Khalsa. No one else has the kind of character that Khalsa has, no one else has deen-imaan, kadar-keemat the way Khalsa does, no one else has a satkaarjog saroop that Khalsa has. All these people around you are under NO obligation to be the best human beings, but you blessed Khalsas will have the sweet burden of that Guru-given duty on your head till you die. Wake up! Love all, trust a few, but have no expectations from anyone Khalsa jee, because Khalsa lives a life of commitment to our SatGuru Patshah jee, others tend to live a life they at times find aimless and can't define even themselves. Wake up! There is way we are expected to live in society, and that was given to us by our param pyaare SatGuru Patshah jee long before these man-made handwritten laws were created or implemented. I am not asking you to look down upon anyone, or to hate anyone, or to dislike anyone, or to degrade or put anyone down. I am only begging you to please be niyaare in every aspect of your lifestyle. And I am only rebuking myself to stand up and be who and what I am, NOT who and what the world wants to see me as.

Brilliant post Mehtab

[Beginner]

Another thing. Only religion I know of to have its leaders writings with them, unedited by mortal hands.

[Mehtab Singh]

Khalsa jee, why do some hateful and stupid people have a problem with Sikhs being proud of their history? Because they themselves are nigurey who do NOT have ANY spiritual inclination and in fact have a shameful history full of deception stories and tales of trickery which they obviously cannot boast about. These people will NEVER understand the glory of Shaheedi. They cannot understand how can someone sit on a red hot iron plate and recite Sri Sukhmani Sahib, they will NOT understand how can 40 Singhs fight against 1 million, they will NOT understand how 2 little children embraced martyrdom by being bricked alive, they will NOT understand or even agree that someone could sacrifice one's life for another religion, they will NOT understand how can someone fight a battle with his own severed head on one of his own hands, they will NOT understand how can someone get himself cut joint-by-joint with a smile, they will NOT understand how can someone become Shaheed on charkhariyaan, they will NOT understand how can someone get their scalp removed and then be proud that his Sikhi remained intact, they will NOT understand how someone can recite Sri Japji Sahib while getting himself sawn into two halves, they will NOT understand how can someone get himself boiled like a vegetable yet continue to recite the name of Vaaheguroo, they will NOT understand how can mothers get the limbs of their kids put around their necks as a garland and still thank Vaaheguroo. WHY? Because they themselves do NOT have such a history. They do NOT have ANY such role models to look upto. They do NOT have ANY Shaheeds watching over them who they have to show their face to and be accountable.

Stay niyaare Khalsa jee! Stay unique and distinct! Do Sangat of Gurmukh piyaare who love Guru Sahib, His Bani, and Gurmat. Ignore those decayed minds who under the ugly garb of their own so-called “scientific reasoning” question and mock the Shaheediyaan of our Shaheeds. They do NOT have ANY of the bounties we do. We have the kurbaaniyaan of our Shaheeds in front of us to emulate, they do NOT have anything of this sort. We have the jeevan of our Sants who taught us how to live, they do NOT have anything of this sort. We have the jeevan of our Sipahis who taught us how to die, they do NOT have anything of this sort. We had a flag, a banner, a nation, a national anthem ages before their countries of today even had a name or even a map! And last but not at all the least Khalsa jee, WE HAVE A HISTORY WRITTEN IN THE BLOOD OF OUR SHAHEEDS, THEY MOST DEFINITELY DO NOT!!!!!

Love all, trust a few, but recognize the fact that you have something priceless that you SHOULD value, ALWAYS! Do NOT look down upon anyone, do NOT to hate anyone, do NOT dislike anyone, do NOT degrade or put anyone down. But Khalsa jee, be proud of your history, be proud of your Shaheeds, try your best to live upto those expectations they had from you. Because remember, you DO play a major role on this planet. You are a Sikh, S.I.K.H. S stands for Shahadat, Shaheedi, a Sikh’s aim, I stands for ibaadat, bandagi, a Sikh’s lifestyle, K stands for Khidmat, seva, a Sikh’s duty, and H for Hifaazat, protection of the weak, a Sikh’s responsibility. Yes, you ARE the niyaaraa Khalsa of Dasmesh Pita!!!

Khalsa Ji this is th foremost reason Sikhs are taken advantage of because we are filled with honesty and sincerety and we expect the same thing from others. Yet, we still keep a soft heart and move on. I always wanted to ask a local Granthi what a Sikh should do if an older person is being disrespectful. We re always taught to respect the elders but what if the other person is being a jackass

[Guest]

Akaal.

Those people are faithless people.They are atheist even if they say they love waheguru.

[_singhni_]

Vaheguruuuu. Best thread I have read in a very long time.

[Mehtab Singh]

what a Sikh should do if an older person is being disrespectful. We re always taught to respect the elders but what if the other person is being a jackass

I guess let another older person deal with him/her?

[kullykhalsa]

never let an older person bully you or be disrespectful age is no indicator of intelligence or wisdom

dont let an older person deal with them grow up and deal with them, respect is earnt not given out wily nilly. Even our own guru's ages have ranged wildly so we should use that as an example!
