During the time of GuruNanak Dev ji , the concept of casteism , religious superiority was prevalent.

And GuruNanak Dev ji , brought every one from the diverse background on the single platform and made them equal.

In those days there was Casteism , Religionism etc .

Today in the modern age , Still the Concept remains the same , but with modern names , High Status , Low Status , Highly cultured , Low Cultured , Highly respectable , low Respectable , High Class , Low Class,superiority inferiority , Highly Religious , Low Religious.

No concrete suggestions to the problems , but Abstract advices to the problems.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=7884

If someone faces a problem , then people select few verses from Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji start disseminating , without Listening , understanding and analysing the problem of the solution seeker .

When any one gets into trouble , some say "Obey God's Hukum , accept reality the way it is".

Okay , the person has agreed that it was God Hukum and has accepted the reality the way it is , But what the next Step should be .

If suppose one has met an accident , you say the "Obey God's Hukum , accept reality the way it is". And leave the person on the road there ....

You are very right. We are more to strengthen our ethnicity than to be part of Guru NAnak's universality. Let all those consider the Guru Granth their guide to help each other and dwell on the message.

Re: Sikhs Failed to Follow and spread Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Message

Saadh Sangat Ji

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

I have been reading the newsletter for the last many months. I am peeved at the comment that Sikhs failed to follow and spread Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji's message to the humanity.

I am all the more peeved by someone's citing the " Muslim perception about Sikhs". Boss Sikhs are sons of Guru Nanak Dev Jiand the race is not dependent on some *******ed girls who get seduced by the so called Testosterone.

And if someone is talking about Testosterone, he should be told about Baba Banda Singh Bahadar, Baba Deep Singh,etc from the History. And Present we can cite Dr. Manmohan Singh.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=7884

And some coward and lowly man who is thinking that by force taking someone's wife or daughter he is going to increase the strength of Islam is going to do a disservice to his relegion.

True Muslim is like Baba Farid who does not believe in annihilation of any relegion, rather focusses on coexistence and together reaching the same destination i.e. God... Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Sikhism, Budhism, etc are all just the paths which are leading to one God. We may call it Allaah, Waheguru, Bhagwaan etc.

Yes we have to spread Guru Nanak Dev Ji's message to the world. One mistake we have committed is that we have made Gurudwaras only a place of Bhakti. We must make them the places of Bhakti as well as Shakti. Bhakti is Gurbani, Shakti is a collection of Physical Strength as well as increasing the intellect of Saadh Sangat. By intellect i mean they shud be taught Communication skills, Personality Development skills, Group Activities. Not All Gurudwaras can have these facilities but we can always pool the resources.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=7884

I am sure we will be able to find good Teachers to Teach Personality Development skills- A lot many Retired Army Officers will be able to devote time for this. Tuitions on various subjects free for all should be arranged in the Premises of GuruDwaras.
Our Focus should be to get the youth keep coming to Gurudwaras. Gurudwaras should be the places where one should get the answers to all problems.

My request to the Administrator
I am ready to give whatever i can for the cause, please discuss over this issue to as many brethren as possible. We must turn Gurudwaras into what they used to stand for during the times of our Gurus. We will definitely be spraeding the message of Guru Nanak Dev Ji.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Christians, Muslims and Budhists along with their different denominations are spreading the same messages. Its difficult to argue that some how by having long hair and turbans the truth is realized.

eropa,

Guru Fateh.


Your post makes no sense. Can you express yourself in a better way and share what is on your mind and what kind of message would you like to hear?

Thanks

Dear HP Luthra Ji

It is great idea that you have published here. But are you prepare to question your belief?
It is nice talk about other religion’s fault. We are the best when we show the other is wrong. I wrote about my idea about Nanak but the site I sent will not put it in the forum because it does not fit in their belief.

If you are willing to publish it then I can rewrite it. Don’t forget it will shake you to the core.
