Harmandar Sahb And Bhagat Bani

Here is my research which hopes and tries to uphold gurmat/gurbani as balanced, pristine as possible:

Hari just like term raam mostly in gurbani refers to Akaal purkh.

With that being said, we cannot ignore or reject sargun interpretation and reference of term - hari sargun darshan/dedicated to sargun hari in devotion to (be it vishnu or its avtars, chaturbhuj vishnu) in gurbani bhagat bani used by bhagats initially in sargun bhakti later on bhagats perceiving hari as nirgun parbhram after they progressed spiritually or after the darshan of sargun hari.

Sure those shabad which are references to sargun hari (from historical/sargun bhakti standpoint) can be also interpretated as antriv arths where shabad allows (from anubhav arth in meditation vantage point) which is fine from as long sargun interpertation of hari is not downplayed or totally rejected as we then inadvertently reject historical/sargun bhakti stance of bhagats included in gurbani all in fear of fighting some junkie hindu fanatic kid.

So in this way shabad has to be proper contexualized and also looked at historical angle. We cannot always interpret gurbani from nirgun antriv arth standpoint as gurbani is meant for all seekers from all walks of life, addresses to both sargun bhagat (help them with spiritual development) and nirgun ikongkar shabad upsakh.

Many bhagats bhagat bani reference who are included in gurbani starting their spiritual journey quest with sargun bhakti and have used hari term in gurbani in reference to sargun Hari in bhagti but as they spiritual progressed they perceive hari from sargun hari to sarabvpyapk hari or raam (ramiya hoya all prevading paremshvar).

Regarding this hindu fanatic, don't even need to mention gurbani...just beat him with his own tools- bring vedanta outright rejection of hari being vishnu. He won't have anything to say. Tell him if vedanta does not agree with hari being vishnu being some authority but only vyapk atma but how the hell you expect outside gurmat to agree with your sargun fanatic stance.

Most of rss hindu sargun fanatics propaganda can be beaten by their own hindu gnosis school of thought (Vedanta/gyan marg listed in their own bhagvad gita), without sikhs acting in fear/downplaying (contary to true search in gurmat) or going extreme lenghts of undermining gurmat teaching or downplaying/ water down gurmat interpertation. Leave gurbani the way it is...Lets not water down interpertation to fight off rss. Enough damage is already being done to gurmat traditions or framework all in the name of fighting rss.

What is Vedant ? Can you provide more info or link where i can read this .

ask him that because the famous hindu saint Swami Ramakrishana Parmhansa practiced Islam for a while that means he was a muslim.

LOL that will shut him up,

Swami Ramakrishan Parmhansa was an amazing brahmgiani and famous hindu saint, for a long time he did idol worship of Durga. He was mast and had many divine visions. He was the Guru of Swami Vivikenanada. For a while he stopped idol worship and used to go to the mosque....

    • 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.
