No Other Religion Leads To God

The only deen acceptable to Allah SWT is Sikhi..



You know few years ago there was a YouTube channel run by this anti-Khalistani Punjabi Hindu fellow. He made some really obscene videos insulting Sant Baba Jarnail Singh Jee Khalsa Bhindranwale and all the Shaheeds who sacrificed themselves for Khalistan. For weeks and months he kept uploading those videos and several Punjabi Sikhs would comment under his videos using the filthiest language. Then a few Singhs contacted this guy via his YouTube ID, and urged him to in fact listen to Sant Jee's speeches, read the English translations, and watch the videos as well. I clearly remember, a few weeks later the dude took down all those videos, posted a public apology stating he had no idea what Sant Jee stood for, and ultimately closed down his channel. That incident left me wondering and amazed, and I do think that if we reach out to people in that sort of manner, we can make a difference. That is all I look forward to achieving. Sant Jee never praised Hinduism or Islam, never advocated any manmat, never sugarcoated the pristine and firm ideals of Gurmat. Yet this Hindu who hated Sikhs was so shaken up that he apologized and vanished. Vaheguru knows who those blessed Singhs were who contacted this guy, Vaheguru know what they said to him and in what manner. May Vaheguru give us (starting with me) that sort of sojhi sumat that we can explain to non-Sikhs the hollowness of their rituals and by Guru Sahib's kirpa they turn to Sikhi. It worked for that guy, it can work for several others. Question is, are we up for it?

That only works sometimes alot of people have tried with Abu Abeeda he refuses to remove his views but it seems Abu and his friends need to be taken on with the truth, because the truth will set you free WHAEGURU JI.......

Brilliant anecdote Mehtab Singh Ji. In terms of if we are up for it as a Qaum overall. The answer is clearly NO whilst we have our vakhre Gurdware, abortion clinics doing a roaring trade, Badal running the education system so badly that many of our youth coming up are still illiterate and drugs and alcohol consumption so big in Punjab.

We can only encourage more to turn towards Sikhi if our Qaum cleans up its act on a collective basis and we all play our part in this modern Dharam Yudh with Unity.

Once we cover the basics and live good lives according to Gurmat ourselves then others will turn to Sikhi more when they see the love and nimrata of true Gursikhs.

We just vary in our outlook and approach, and that is alright. Its very natural for 2 people to be having the same goal, yet totally different attitudes and approaches in life.

Doesn't make them enemies, lol.

Mehtab Veer you hit the nail on the head with this too. If we can appreciate that different sampardas and groups within the Panth have the same goal but different viewpoints on how to get there, then that will kill half the arguments that lead to factionalism within the Panth. I think all of us on this thread are in unity overall.

Thanks, this is what I meant, you explained it beautifully.

Thanks for the respect, but there is no cat after any mouse on here, nor is any cat or mouse attacking each other. Singhs disagreeing or agreeing to disagree with each other is nothing new, its part of the discussion process. Don't understand why you don't see it that way. If you really want to respond to my post, why don't you respond about how many non-Sikhs have you convinced in real life about the superiority of Gurmat over other faiths? Have you?

Sorry, if I offended you. That cat and mouse scenario was not directed at you. That was saved for people who I hold very dearly to my heart on this forum :biggrin2:

I know where you stand on this issue. And about your question. I actually was asked by a professional once to do a lot more than just randomly teach non-Sikhs. In the immediate environment I did, but refused any further sessions. There is a lot which you don't know about me.

Glad to know we have self-realized folks on here.

Here we go again with the mocking. I suggest you do more readings of other religions. Just recently a thread went up about needing a Guru. Take a look at its source and it's followers quest. Your mocking of others shows you are self righteous and ignorant. The mocking is a self defense mechanism that many other users use as well, who can be classified as urban Sikhs that choose to sit in 3 hour lectures and read second hand material that tells them what other religious scriptures are about and then say we have Phd in the study of religion, but really never pick up a religious scripture.

If someone calling you self-realized feels mockery to you, then that just means you're insecure and would presume every comment as an insult. Doesn't really mean the other person is self-righteous or ignorant. Once in a while someone can in fact appreciate :)

Sir I've lived among 3 religions in a manner you cannot in your lifetime :) , so spare me that suggestion please. But thanks anyways. Worth a shot anyday I must say.

You know that can very well be taken as a casteist comment, but never mind.

Mehtab Singh veer, Only five veer and others

There is no need to throw insults at each other, especially when it comes to discussing other religions. If we are not on the same page, doesn't mean we throw mud at each other. As others have posted, being Sikhs it is our right to stand up for what is right and vouch for the truth. If the truth in Gurbani seems bitter to some, that is not our fault. If the ugly truth about their beliefs shows them the mirror and they panic, that is also not our mistake. However, as Mehtab Singh said, it is not a bad idea to approach genuine seekers with compassion, but at the same time stay alert about miscreants who have harmful motives.

Please refrain from any further personal attacks. We have had valuable opinions so far and would want more thoughts.

    • 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.
