[QUOTE="serinakaur, post: 46397, member: 3494"] [b]re: 'Janam Sakhi' Are True Events[/b] :) Ok, so we will always find people who will agree the sakhis are true factual events that did occur and others who won't. Personally i believe 100% that they are true, some events are beyond common reasoning, but whoever said we have the mental capability to understand anything, even an iota of what Waheguruji does. I would give a relevant sakhi to illustrate but seeing as the truth they contain is doubted....... ok some science instead. Tell how do we know that the air exists when we can't see it, how can we tell that atoms and molecules exist, and in there absence we create a vacuum, or conversly why don't we think the scientists have got it all wrong and the vacuum actually exists bween there ears instead! After all,the basic chemical periodic table had to be rewritten when theY realised the had got the data incorrect. More basically how do we know 2+2 makes 4? We all rely on the efforts of a more knowlegeable individual in finding what you believe to be an acceptable correct answer, an adept in the matter, and for us with regards to spirituality ,it is the Guruji (cos we are far too trapped in the net of Maya to see beyond the wall of duality). Your doubt is the effect of kaal yug, and its a major battle of the mind to overcome, we all have it at different times (if not all the time), and those are the instances we fall down in life. It takes strength to believe, because it flyies in the face of everything we are taught here in the west, and everything that is respected in the west. With regards to why guru Teg Bahadur ji didn't show his spiritual powers, because none of the gurujis ever did. When you reveal a spiritual gift you are exhibiting ego, (meditating on the Naam gives you spiritual gifts or ridih sidhis,) and we all know and love and repect our gurujis for the humility they exhibited, which we could never dream of possessing, so unlike some prophets, Sikh Gurujis never "did" miracles. When Guruji was matyred there was a lesson being taught to all his sikhs, it was of identity and courage,which was powerfully taught. Nobody would collect our Master's body after the event. People were afraid the mughuls would kill them too, so in a way they denied they were Guruji's Sikh. Hencefourth the 10 th guruji established the 5 kakars so you would be instantly recognised. Guruji was brave (bahadur means courage, teg is the name of a sword), he died to save the Hindu faith. Mughul rein was so brutal that the Hindu raja's came to Guruji in desperation because their non-violence philosophy left them defenceless. We remember Guru Teg Bahadhur Ji mostly by his philosophy, I will not create fear neither will i accept others who enforce fear on others. Some Hindus still remember, my brother went to a global music festival in the uk recently, and a Hindu man in saffron robes respectfully came up to him and said " I want to thank you, the Sikhs saved our religion from the Mughuls." Hope this helps a little Bharji, its just the way i see it from my limited understanding. Gurfateh Serina kaur . [/QUOTE]
