Over Analyzing And Making Sikhi 'complicated'.

“Beware of the magic of Brahmanical philosophic analysis of everything, even the most secret and complex infinites of faith, life and love. It killed them, it shall kill you. Analysis is the opposite pole of feeling. I worship my mother, I love my wife, but what would they be if I wished to know them by analysis!” Professor Puran Singh Ji

Here i don't think prof puran singh ji confines bhramanical philsophic type "analysis' to only hindus or bhramin, snatan as you quoted but it applies to much broader context as well mindset from all religions which includes hindus as well and as its do with "pscho analysis everything" with or without parnioa which screws people up in long run as raw anything is bad. Gurmat is balanced, center marg.

We do have examples too in our panth where kathavachikhs goes off tangent in sakhiya and over complication which screws up rhythm of katha. However, over complication too is subjective term - it could be over complicated for someone but it may not over complicated for others. As van hel singh veer said, It truly depends on intention of individual. Its hard to say

A while back I remember some individuals on SS said that Sant Jarnail Singh Khalsa Bhindranwale's katha wasn't that "deep", by deep they actually meant didn't get lost in stories like those told by Giani Thakur Singh from Patiala leaving the listener with a false sense of accomplishment.

In reality Sant Jarnail Singh Ji Khalsa Bhindranwale's katha is both deep and according to Gurmat, none better than Sant Ji (and Sant Gurbachan Singh Bhindranwale and Taksal in general). I used to like writing essays on forums like SS, but now I just see it as "vele bandeya da kam" and don't see a point anymore. Sikhi is about action and understanding Gurbani prema bhagti.

....

Some like to add their own masaleh to spice up proceedings, all the while thinking, "As long as it gets the sangat on-side, whether it's strictly true or not it doesn't really matter as long as I'm not blaspheming or leading them away from Waheguru". Whilst others stick to the message, not one syllable more or less, and they leave it up to us to take the decision, without any inducements of any sort. Whatever works I guess.

I find sant gurbachan singh bhindranwale katha to be quite deep actually its not all direct straight to vaikhiya. As i was talking to johnny veer in this thread below, japji sahib teeka by sant kartar singh bhindranwale teaching of gurmat by sant gurbachan singh bhindranwale is close to whopping 800 pages long with full analysis, conceptual entomology theological commentary of Gurmat. Yes in grand scheme of things, everything is simple*(refer to akaal ustat line above) but one simply cannot ignore other aspects - vidya. It's all about striking a right balance.

Again false propaganda, bullying and lies.

You're the missionary and anti-Sikh agent, not me.

UK = DSG Paji ..All Paji was saying is that because you have misgivings that part of what is collectively termed SG nowadays was not written by Dhan Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj many will assume that it makes you DSGj an anti-Sikh agent. My viewpoint on another subject has always been the direct opposite of yours. But you know what, even if I disagree with 100% on that, your passion for Sikhi shines through. So why not all of us debate academic issues with pyaar and focus repeatedly on what unites us in the agenda to achieve Panth ki Jeet? The outside haters seek to divide our Panth and looking at multiple village Gurdware our enemies are doing a very successful job. But all of us from all shades of the spectrum that see the prem for Sikhi in another need to unite ... given that in the Census of 2021 our enemies aim to make us a minority in East Punjab. When tyres and kerosone to effect Genocide against the Sikh Qaum nobody really bothered to check the intracies of each individual Shaheed's belief. That sums it up as to why we need to continually see that we are all on the same side as often as possible - even though we have our full rights on each other to debate academically with pyaar where we see one agenda as better for progress of the Panth than another.

    • 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.
