Granthi Singh Converts To Christianity


Recommended Posts

Guest Jacfsing2

Caste has nothing whatsoever to do with any religion, it's a cultural phenomena that is mainly practised in the Indian sub-continent, lower "caste" Indian's/Punjabi's/Hindu's/Gujurati's/Sikh's convert to Christianity because they feel they will be treated as equals but they seem to forget that they are still living within a country that actively practises the caste system and an unfortunate truth is that we "Indians" have taken this practise with us into the western world, it's all fine and well saying "Sikhism treat's all as one" but the reality is very different.

I saw a short documentary a while ago about a small Gurdwara in India where those of lower caste's are given karah parshad through a different door than the rest of the sangat, absolutely disgusting behaviour.

We can excommunicate those people; however, Hindus don't have a similar solution.

There is a tendancy amongst us worldwide Sikhs to bypass our religious duty to be in in chardi kala and instead be in a state of perennial negativity.

So, lets look at the overwhelming positives of the story behind this thread:

Positive, in that maybe the 'Sikhs' that criticise Sikhi because of the granthis can now see that Sikhi does not have a priesthood. The granthis are human just like you and me and 99.9% are granthis only because their fathers were also granthis and it is a family occupation. THAT, should be a wake-up call to all Sikhs to fulfill their responsibility of being a Sikh and learn GurBani.

Positive, in the sense that the followers of Mithras are now so desperate that they have to pay money in order to gain recruits.

Let us cast our minds back to Jeruselum back in the olden days when a great person called Issa (Jesus) was born. At the time he was born the most popular 'God' in Jersulum and the most of the world was the Persian god called 'Mithras'. The story of the Persian god Mithras was that he was born in a stable and when he was born 3 Persian Kings followed a star in the sky and came bearing gifts because they saw him as the special one. The story goes on and is very familiar but it ends in the fact that when Mithras was killed for his beliefs he miraciously came back to life again 3 days later. Worth remembering if, for nothing else, for the fact that my 5 year old asked me only this morning why he has in this moment in time 2 weeks holiday from school.

So, bearing in mind that the followers of a false,dying philosophy are now so desperate that they are now reduced to leaving their lands in their heartlands in the west and PAYING for converts in the 3rd world tells us nothing about ourselves.

This thread is about THEIR dying problem. Nothing to do with us. Nothing to do with us because how the Nazerines decide to protect their own skin during the explusion from Jeruselum is nothing to do with us.

Moral of the story ? Don't be looking at the Granthi in question. Be looking at yourself (myself). Those others (christians) are now so failed they are now scraping the bottom of the barrell (paying for recruits). Forget those muppets for it is we (the Sikhs) who should be trying to fulfill our duty of learning the scriptures ourselves....for we have no priesthood.

Still don't get it ?

Well, let me expain. The followers of a great Jewish man......Isaa (Jesus) was so great, and so Jewish, that he argued against the moneylenders. THATS how Jewish he was. Thats how proud and he good he was that he stood against the moneylenders.

Then, a couple of centuries later they came with hate, determined to get rid of all Jews from Jeruselum and expell them into the desert. Desperate times. These are desperate times that we Sikhs know only too well and is the making of us but the christian is of a different ilk. The Jews that followed the great man from nazerine said "please don't expel us....for we are not jews (and remember they said this to save and progress thier own skins)....we are an entitrely different new religion as followers of that Zazerine (Jesus).

And so, we come to the year 2015. Lets imagine the year 2015 to be some kind of futuristic sc-fi year. Sc-Fi is make believe. I don't belive in sc-fi make believe nonsense. And yet here we are in the most popular threads on SikhSangat on the 6th or 7th page because a sysem of belief based on nonsense is so desperate that it decides to pay to get recruits from a faith that doesn't even have priests.

This thread isn't for you. Its ABOUT you.....and your stupidity.

You can try to, people have been trying to for god know's how many year's, as a faith we are not meant to practise any discrimination whatsoever yet we can't even sit in the same Gurdwara, people of different caste's will go and open their own Gurdwara's.

I'll give you an example that involves my own family, most are moderate Sikh's (i.e. not amritdhari but do everything that is required, some have cut hair or beards but that's beside the point), they will actively talk down about other castes, when I tell them that you can't bow down to Guru Sahib and then turn around and discriminate I'm made out to be the bad guy, so it's a problem that has to be solved at a grass roots level, family to family, while i've said before i'm not a fully practising Sikh i'm on the path, i can't change those who have come before me but i'm going to try my level best that my kids grow up without this thought process.

Jagyasu and Prema bhagti birti will try to walk on the path which is sharper than edge of double edged sword and narrower than the width of a hair. Most will just refrain from this path because their preeti is padaarthi ( materialistic) but they are way way better than bemukh as they have faith in their Guru that they will fulfil their wishes.

  1. Green==Blue==Orange==green

‘=’ is

‘== ‘same both ways

‘=~ ‘ not equal

‘->’ implies

Content of water on earth= Green

Water in rivers/wells/underground/lakes = Blue

Water in glass= Orange

Droplets of water in glass = Red

Dry glass in vacuum = Black

Bemukh (black) uses his mind (man) but it’s the title of bemukh which gets retained until SarGunSatGuru’s feet are sought ‘again’ and SarGunSatGuru wishes to forgive. He/she may wander for eternity without SargunSatGuru but will not find any liberation.

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.

Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
