| Re: The Search for Statehood drkhalsa, HTML Code: 4. SIKH Rehat maryada clearly says About meat eating and
it is alowed (except Halal) but still every body has there preferences
( may be like your Amritdhari family members) Mardana, Nanak's companion, used to sing devotional songs of Kabir, Ravidas, Trilochan, Beni, Dhanna and Nanak. He also composed verses, three of which areReference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/hard-talk/8815-the-search-for-statehood.html included in the Adi Granth in 'Bihagre ki Var'. They are against the use of wine which brings about misery, lust, pride, self-conceit, falsehood, ill health and disease. He says : "The barmaid is misery, wine is lust; man is the drinker The cup filled with worldly love is wrath, and it is served by pride The company is false and covetous, and is ruined by excess of drink Instead of such wine make good conduct thy clarified butter, and modesty thy meat to eat Such things, O Nanak, are obtained by the Guru's favour; by par-taking of them sins depart." Then there is Kabir in the Guru Granth-ji : ja-o sabh meh ayk khudaa-ay kahat ha-o ta-o ki-o murgee maarai. ||1|| "Je tuhn eh aakhda hain ki khuda sab jeevan vich maujood hai taan murgi kyon maarda hain" You say that the One Lord is in all, so why do you kill chickens? ||1|| page 1350, Guru Granth-ji. Why do you need some Hukamaama or some Rehat Maryada. Is the Guru Grath not enough. When the Dasam-Pitah said 'sab sikhaan ko hukum hai Guru manyo Granth' that's exactly what he meant. He never meant Guru manyo SGPC clowns. OK...Guru Gobing ordered a few goats to be killed. Someone please inform me as to what he relished most. Pota ? Kalegi ? Seena ? Kapoora ? Paya soup ? Grow up... OK...there is some verse by Nanak in the Guru-Granth-Ji. But what does it mean. Only that Nank and Kabir don't really agree with each other on everything. They both can't be right.The Guru-Granth or for that matter any scripture is not to be taken at face value.Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=8815 Thanks. |
