[QUOTE="namjiwankaur, post: 177333, member: 13793"] Sat Nam Yes, I am aware of that. Actually, I think this is true of the sacred texts/Word of God found in all religion. IE- People tend to take one ayat from Quran and ignore all the other ayat in Quran relating to it so that it appears that Islam is a religion of violence. In the same way, someone could make Jesus, peace be upon him, look violent by clipping a quote from the Bible without its proper context. IE-when he says he came not for peace but with a sword ([url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/But_to_bring_a_sword"]Matthew 10:34[/url]) If one didn't know Jesus and only knew he said this about swords, they might assume Jesus promoted violence also. Sadly, I knew someone who took literally what Jesus said, "And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell." (Matthew 5:30) He amputated his own hand, taking that literally. I also thought for many years, everything Jesus said (the entire Bible for that matter) was meant to be taken literally and I was horrified if I became "more Christian", I deserved to have my hand amputated also. I understand. Its also probably worth mentioning that all Words of God are probably tainted by "translation". Once one translates the Quran, for example, into English from Arabic, it involves choices made by the "translator" to explain concepts that can only be understood as worded in the original language of a sacred text. Angel may have been the closest word a translator could find. Googled vichaar and want to share the link I have on it to sip on throughout the day. [URL="http://www.gurbani.org/articles/webart58.htm"]Vichaar - Spiritual Inquiry[/URL] Has anyone noticed the unique destinations people arrive at through studying the same spiritual messages? There is a hadith where Muhammad pbuh says: "There are as many paths to God as there are souls on Earth." In a sense there is One destination, but it appears we view it like a singular Ray of Light granted to each soul by the Divine. I find it amazing to contemplate on this. So in your opinion what is (Semitic take) on angels from a Sikh perspective? What is your vichaar, bro?!?! peacesign Someone wrote me using the peace sign to represent two....see new thread. peacesign [/QUOTE]
