Badal Visits Dera Beas

Sikh Naamdhari ji,

Guru Fateh.

You write:

Thanks for the response. Well, your post shows your dis-satisfaction against the fellow Sikhs, so that is why I was wondering!

I am a bit confused by your response. For Sikhs there is ONLY ONE SATGURU, that is IK ONG KAAR.

So what do you mean when you use the word SATGURUS in plural?


Pardon my ignorance once again, but you are Sikh by what defintion if not what the SRM/Akaal Takhat defines as a Sikh?

Once again, I did not understand what you are trying to say. Sikhs only have ONE GURU now and that GURU is Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.

So, please elaborate on your answers.

Thanks

Tejwant Singh

Super old thread i am enjoying. Funny, the Namdhari basically led everyone else into intellectual desperation. He was so clear and solid in his first post that people got defensive. Closed mindedness will do that. You'll defend when you aren't being attacked. Good job Namdhari. Glad to see your people after receiving hate for over a hundred years still do your thing beautifully and don't get discouraged by the mainstream.

The alternative explanation is that Sikh Namdhari was trolling, is not a Namdhari, and that the desperation was more about frustration. Since then we have TOS to shut down threads that wind on provoking the same arguments over and over again.

Edited post. Wrote too fast and was feeling emotional..Makes sense to not go in circles but it wasn't only his fault.

Let us recognize that Mr. Badal and the Ministers (without dissecting if they are good, bad or the best) do have the following rights in a democratic way,

• Be a poilitician
• As a Politician
  • Visit or meet with people
  • Entertain people
  • Attend public functions
  • Govern
• When doing functions we need to recognize a politician as,
  • A Politician first
    • There visits and other activities need to be considered political
  • At a personal level
    • They have the right to be private like everyone else
• Responsibilities of Akali Party
  • If they claim to be proponents and protectors of Sikhism
    • Please select people very carefully
      • Otherwise you could go the way of the dinosaurs
        • Become irrelevant or disappear

I know and have heard about lot of bad going on but I answered strictly within the context of the question.

Sat Sri Akal.

Not to keep this old thread going or to start more arguments or controversies, but I do want to also say that Badal may go to Deras to do what he does but we can't say that it means those Deras are in any way supportive of his particular political motive. Dali Lama,Richard Gere and many others have gone to visit and it doesn't mean the Dera supports the Tibetan freedom movement.If someone comes to my house I will host but i won't give my daughter just cause they ask.
