What is Dharam Yudh?
1. To battle against those people or ideologies that are destructive, that hurt, divide, enforce, manipulate, coerce, bully, intimidate, slander, brainwash, murder, rape, the innocent people.


How? With dialogue or the pen first; then if all other means fail the sword. (as said Guru Gobind Singh Ji)


What is mindless violence?


1. To hurt the innocent, slander, divide community, enforce will on another, rape women or men, intimidate people, manipulate the weak to do something, bully people into submission.


It is with sad regret that we have arrived at a vulgar level as a community. Any incident that occurs happens our first solution to resolve it is with violence. People aim to hurt the person mentally and physically, rather than punish them.


Recently a young man had his jaw broken in two places by a so-called preacher by his five henchmen. Did they want to punish him for talking to a girl on face book, or humiliate him, or did they wish to hurt his very being; for life? It looks like the second .....so are you in Dharam or are you one of those people the Guru called dusht, or dokhi, are you a giver of pain or of peace to other beings that have the right to live like yourself?

Setting peoples cars on fire, slandering them on the internet, giving them threatening phone calls, creating malicious gossip, boycotting them, beating or stabbing them with weapons from behind are not Sikh actions.


It is the action of BEMUKHS, those who have turned their face away from Dharam. It is the action of criminals in the guise of being Sikh.


Be Sanmukh and fight the person with dialogue, then a punishment given by some Panj Singh with authority, not your local ghetto of mates.

This is the face of fanatics...Muslims also have their version called Jihaad.
BOTH types have no basis in the Original "Dharam" sector.

Re: What is Dharam Yudh?

What happened to putting shackles on KAAM, KRODH, LOBH , MOH, HANKKAR, our 5 thieves that reside within all of us with the help of the tools given to us by Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, our ONLY GURU?

Talbanisation of Sikhi is putting shackles to our own selves, hence making us prisoners of our own ignorance laced with tons of arrogance,hence forgetting that the only key to unshackle ourselves from this only lies in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.

Re: What is Dharam Yudh?

Huck_Finn ji,

Guru Fateh.

Can you please elaborate the following in your own words so we can understand what you are trying to convey through copying & pasting the literal translation?

You write:

Quote:
The biggest battle is breaking the "Seige" within
1. What "seige" is this and what is the biggest battle?


Quote:
ਕਿਉ ਲੀਜੈ ਗਢੁ ਬੰਕਾ ਭਾਈ ॥
किउ लीजै गढु बंका भाई ॥
Ki▫o lījai gadẖ bankā bẖā▫ī.
How can the beautiful fortress be conquered, O Siblings of Destiny?
2.Which is this beautiful fortress and why is this to be conquered? What does one gain by conquering this fortress?

Quote:
ਦੋਵਰ ਕੋਟ ਅਰੁ ਤੇਵਰ ਖਾਈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
दोवर कोट अरु तेवर खाई ॥१॥ रहाउ ॥
Ḏovar kot ar ṯevar kẖā▫ī. ||1|| rahā▫o.
It has double walls and triple moats. ||1||Pause||
3.What is the reason it has double walls and triple moats and what are their functions?

Quote:
ਪਾਂਚ ਪਚੀਸ ਮੋਹ ਮਦ ਮਤਸਰ ਆਡੀ ਪਰਬਲ ਮਾਇਆ ॥
पांच पचीस मोह मद मतसर आडी परबल माइआ ॥
Pāʼncẖ pacẖīs moh maḏ maṯsar ādī parbal mā▫i▫ā.
It is defended by the five elements, the twenty-five categories, attachment, pride, jealousy and the awesomely powerful Maya.
4.Which are these 5 elements and 25- categories? Please explain each of them and their functions?

Quote:
ਜਨ ਗਰੀਬ ਕੋ ਜੋਰੁ ਨ ਪਹੁਚੈ ਕਹਾ ਕਰਉ ਰਘੁਰਾਇਆ ॥੧॥
जन गरीब को जोरु न पहुचै कहा करउ रघुराइआ ॥१॥
Jan garīb ko jor na pahucẖai kahā kara▫o ragẖurā▫i▫ā. ||1||
The poor mortal being does not have the strength to conquer it; what should I do now, O Lord? ||1||
How does the above last verse of the first stanza of the total 6 relate to the above? What purpose does it serve? What message is it trying to convey? In other words, what exactly is he looking for?

After you have explained the first one then we can dissect the rest 5 in the same way.

Others who may have more questions ,regarding the Shadad and its relation to the topic can also pitch in, hence making it a true learning process for all which we can all thank Huck-Finn ji for.

Hoping to have the responses of the questions posted.

Thanks and regards

Tejwant Singh

I would really appreciate knowing that ... We are going to get back on track with the thread topic -- which has important implications for Sikhi in modern societies. A number of posts have been moved out of the thread to Mentors. The relevance of the shabad in Post 4 to the thread topic is where we have left off.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=26182

This thread has been pared back to Tejwant ji 's questions to Huck Finn. Huck Finn can decide to answer or to ignore the questions.




Thanks Narayanjot Kaur
