We need to stop making artistic depictions of our Gurus

 

What is important is their teachings. The way these paintings are put up in gurdwaras with people bowing to them etc., we are descending into idol worship

Good work.

Really good art!  So much symbolism going on in the composition.  I like that the baaj is being given water out of a sarbloh utensil.  I can also see that Guru Sahib is dressed in regal attire yet sitting crossed legged to symbolise humility and close to hand is Guru Sahibs Shastar. Bhagti  and Shakti both working in harmony.  Also I can also see the historical relic the ‘Ganga Sagar’ in the composition.  Art doesn’t necessarily lead to idol worship and can be used powerfully in portraying history.

The whole painting is made up of writing ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ over and over again

Well said but unfortunately naive Sikhs are more into such shallow stuff and not the basics of Sikhi which prohibits idolatry.

Isn’t it too naive by saying having picture hanging is idol worship. I mean all of us has some photo hanging in our homes of family, parents, grandparents etc etc.. That does not mean we are doing idol workshop of them. Having a temple made or prayer around picture is idol worship but not just plain image hanging on walls for remembrance.

we gotta be smart and stop attacking each other and must stand together.
