Hindu

There was no such thing as a hindu back then. India was a collection of millions of different faiths, tribes, clans,  it became a religion when the british made it into one. The hindu identity and faith was created very recently.

Different gods are worshipped in different parts of the country.   In the south ravan is worshipped, brahma is only worshipped in rajasthan and then you have regional deities like baba balak nath.

The word hindu has had different definitions throughout the centuries   this causes some confusion   and hindus obviously take advantage of the flexibility of the word. 

I'm sure you know all this anyway. 

I been recently reading kamasutra lol  and was surprised when it says you can sleep with another mans wife for personal gain eg financial      yet the same "religion" believes in the punishment for sleeping with another mans wife is death eg ravaan.   

Raam ate food from a low caste woman, while bhaman maryada says that even a shudras shadow shouldn't fall on a bhaman. Raam wasnt a bhaman but you get the point 

How can all this even be the same and one "religion" 

Its bs

Hinduism is a culture of the land   and us sikhs come from the same land   so obviously will have similar cultural references.  Hindu/hinduism is a culture not a religion.

The paath in this is extremely shudh . Literally no spelling mistakes.

nice artwork of Bhagauti    looks so powerful and majestic, yet feminine and beautiful.

 

 

Kali on the other hand looks horrific!  she was painted quite different in old art before the british influence came into indian art

KALI SWEEPS THE FLOORS OF GURU NANAK DEV JI

Pritpal Singh / January 13, 2015

 

For the pooja at the temple. As he was about to leave, the king of this kingdom had a heart

attack. Madan who was present with the king sat by him as he was being treated by doctors.

The king worried about his successor, decided to leave his kingdom for Chandrahans whom he

had found to be a very worthy successor. He immediately decided to test him and declare him

his successor if he passed away.

The king immediately dispatched Madan to go and get Chandrahans by his bedside. Madan

found Chandrahans walking towards the mandir. Madan told Chandrahans about the king’s

order to see him immediately. Chandrahans told him of Dhrishtbudhee’s, his father.

–

law’s wish to have pooja done at the mandir. Madan took the pooja stuff from Chandrahans and told

him to go to the king and that he in the meanwhile would perform pooja on Chandrahans’s

behalf.

Madan went to the temple whereas Chandrahans went to see the king. By then Dhrish

tbudhee too had arrived by the bedside of king and was surprised to see Chandrahans there. The king

asked him questions to test him and Chandrahans answered all of them successfully. The king

declared him the king. Dhrishtbudhi asked Chandrahans where Madan was and Chandrahans

told him that Madan had gone to the temple to perform pooja.

Hearing this Dhrishtbudhi went pale. He immediately rushed out towards the mandir fearing

the worst. To his horror, he saw the blood soaked dead body of his son Madan there. Madan

had been murdered mercilessly. Dhrishtbudhi’s third attempt on Chandrahans’s life had turned

futile and actually had harmed him again. Not being able to sustain the sorrow of the death of

his only son Madan, Dhrishtbudhi took out his dagger and stabbed himself to death.

If we try to do evil to others, only bad can happen to us as a result of this.

 

Chaudhary (the village head) of Malsihan village was a devotee of Goddess ‘Kali’, and

respected all holy people.

When Guru Nanak Dev visited Malsihan village, Chaudhary Bhagirath devotedly served him. At

night he would sleep where Guru ji was sleeping. Early

in the morning when Guru ji got up forprayers, Bhagirath went to fetch water for his bath. When he was returning with the buckets of water from the well, he noticed a beautiful lady with eight arms sweeping the floor with a

broom. Bhagirath inquired who she was and why she had come from her house so early. She

replied that she was the Goddess Kali. Bhagirath at once fell at her feet and prayed. He then

asked her why was it that she being the mother of the whole world, supporter of all Gods and

destroyer of

the demons was sweeping the floors of Guru Nanak Dev’s room? She replied that

this holy person was none other than the Unmanifest aspect of the Supreme Being himself,

whereas she was the Manifest aspect and her powers were derived from the services of saints

like Guru Nank Dev.

On hearing this, Bhagirath became a disciple of Guru ji and devoted his life to the service of

saints and meditation on ‘Waheguru’. He was thus liberated from the cycle of life and death.

 

One Bhagirath of Malsihan town was there who earlier was a devotee of Kali, the

Goddess.
