| | | | | Re: Can One Hide A True Guru I am not supporting Hindi. Neither am I against Hindi. I am against Hindutva. I was wrong to put Hindi in translation of Dhan Dhan Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, and Sachasoda was kind to point this out for which correction was taken.
You have written spiritual teachings quoting from Adi Shankara. Is it not so? I am not even against vedic teaching. But it becomes unclear to read all these different teachings together with Gurbani. What is your stand on that?

Ok ji. This is always best. It stayed a doubt in my mind which is why I was asking.
I'm happy it was misunderstanding because I enjoy reading what you write.
Please forgive me. |

| | | | | Re: Can One Hide A True Guru Quote: | And to my surprise it is still appearing in English- so promonoting English by presenting Sacred Gurbani in a Language of those People who ruled over other humans for centuries.......... | Should I remove the English translation if we are posting on an English speaking forum? It is true English has been language of oppression for hundreds of years. Still most Punjabis raised in the West don't even understand Gurmukhi well. What do you suggest? |

Sister Harjas kaur Khalsa Ji,
my suggestion-
Copy and paste it to a word file first, (make sure you have Gurmukhi font downloaded on your pc), then copy it again and paste it in your reply box, it will keep the original text intact in all different languages.
Gurmukhi and English
also use the advanced setting when you paste it to your reply box. |

What do you suggest? | Respected Harjas Ji, Let us look at this situation on hand- English is Dominant, almost everywhere- how we got to this point- MORE AND MORE PEOPLE USE IT AND UNDERSTAND IT. For us Gurmukhi is the SACRED LANGUAGE- Our Dhan Dhan Guru Sahibaan composed and devised it. All the Gurbani is presented to us in this Sacred Jewel. A language is not merely a method of communication, it is also a social symbol, and in our case it is a Spiritual Symbol as well. So I say, does not matter what language we are communicating in, we must keep the Sanctity of Gurbani in its Original form. So i suggest, first present it in its original form- then use whatever language to present it or translate it. This way we will be able to give it proper respect and will always be a reminder-DO NOT FORGET GURMUKHI. AND THE MORE WE WILL USE IT- MORE POPULAR IT WILL BECOME. MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WILL READ IT, SO USE IT, SO UNDERSTAND IT and so on…………. forgive me please |
