The Shakat and Tantric philosophy

Everybody who comes to a site like SPN begins to understand Gurbani by filtering out all other pre-conceptions like Hindu rituals, reincarnation concept, etc. etc.

The concept of re-incarnation in Hinduism differs from Sikhism. Hinduism has a hierarchy of Gods and the various re-incarnations each God assumes under different eras. Sikhism does not believe in hierarchy of Gods but in one God.

More Later. Got to go now.

We are not talking about reincarnation of Gods as your previous post did not mention that.I thought you are talking about human reincarnation.

Guru ji wrote Chaubis avtar with a purpose and that was to let people know that they are Gods but sent by Akal purakh.There lies the difference as Guru ji finished their Godhood and made them mundane persons,

I thought you were talking about human reincarnation.

Guru ji wrote about chaubis avtar and put them under the command of creator God that is akla purakh.So it is different than Hindism here.

i think you are describing incarnation, or avtars. reincarnation is the theory that the soul travels through multiple rebirths until one reaches mukhti.

incarnation isn't important in sikhi. reincarnation is.

Jasleen Ji and Inder Singh Ji,

I commented having in mind drkhalsa's original post which mentions :

The major streams which in some instances are antithetical to one another are: (1) Vaishanism, where Vishnu is the ultimate reality who appears in incarnations to rid this planet of sin, i.e. Ram, Krishan, NarSinh, etc.

This post is by one Serjinder singh.The point of discussion is not his post about shakat sect of hindus.The point under discussion is why he labelled Dasam Granth connected to shakatism.That is a lie and if you want to put forward your point in that regard,you are welcome.
