[QUOTE="gs_chana, post: 13345, member: 925"] [SIZE=2]Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh, Before I begin, I am writing this article from my own knowledge and if I have written anything wrong or misunderstood anything, please do not hesitate to correct me, I am a Sikh, and I shall learn as a Sikh. I would like to ask how many people have seen AARTI being performed at Sri Keshghar Sahib in India. After Rehraas Sahib, AARTI begins at the gurdwara, and to my HORROR, SICKNESS, and Disappointment, the AARTI performed is quiet literally a HINDU ritual. A Giani is standing there with a 'thaal' (tray) with burning divas and agarbatis whilst AARTI is being performed. Bare in mind, the AARTI performed is one of the "Sikh Version", i.e. Gurbani. During the end of the AARTI, a bell begins to be rung, then the thaal is circulated around Guru Granth, and at the end, it is given to sangat and they cover the diva with their hand then wipe their hand over their face, JUST THE EXACT SAME WAY AS HINDUS. Now I am not being offensive to Hindus, but this act is a wasteful, non meaningful and not related to God in any single way. What is the point in circulating a thaal with Divas around Guruji. We are told to read and understand gurbani, not perform rituals to it, what the hell is the meaning of that, its like doing the same thing to a picture of Guru's, UTTERLY WASTEFUL. I do not know how many people who have realised and questioned this, but I do not understand why this has been going on for so long. I would like to know your point of view, and please urge that WE THE YOUTH and Sikh Sangat here start a petition or other action to bring a stop to this. WHY ARE WE LETTING GURU NANAK's TEACHINGS GO TO WASTE BY NOT LISTENING TO A WORD GURU JI TAUGHT US. GURUJI TAUGHT US TO FORGET THESE RITUALS and I BLAME PEOPLES IGNORANCE THAT SUCH ACTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED FOR SO LONG. I AM NOT A SAINT, I AM A SINNER OF SINNER, I AM FOOL, I AM NOTHING, and I know nothing, and I urge you forgive me for any mistakes I've made, and please urge something be done about this SOON rather than later before our people just continually get sucked into such RUBBISH. Thank you, WJKWJF Gurdip Singh Chana [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
