[QUOTE="Chaan Pardesi, post: 151057, member: 7047"] I am sorry to say, exactly as individuals wrangle here, was the SRM wrangled about to get one' s own recognition.The MAJORITY of the Panth accepted it after almost 20 years and more of discussions and preparation.The Maryada was already in existence, but some adulteration was also taking place as Giani Ji has touched upon.Many Nirmala, sadh practices,Arya samajist activities along with brahmin based sadh groups were designing to ruin the right and true spirit of Sikhi. The Sikh intellectual recognised the nefarious designs and actions to constrict Sikh identity back into the fold of Hinduism and other various branches of many persuasions, with strands of Sikhi and mostly Guru Granth used as the attracting pole; thus the need to standardise the maryada was imperative, in order to save the Sikh identity and also preserve the true message of Guru Gobind Singh and the Guru sahibaan. This is nothing new or different to the law and order of any country or other religions.The fact remains the majority of the Sikhs adhered to and accepted the maryada- which even the small segments trying to impose their own nonsense should have followed- the majority! But sadly, as said the failure of the SGPC and the infiltration by the sant samajists types, into the premier oraganisation of the Sikhs, created red herrings and diverted the attention of the Panth from the real issues, and all have now began chasing political chairs.Because of the political weightage, the sant samaj[the current days nirmnala, arya samajist etc types] has managed to throw its weight around, and persuaded, those who were seeking opportunities, to start saying the SRM was "never agreed " by the majority! This is a total travesty of historical and facts.It was a very small and insignificant minority that tried to hold the majority of Sikhs in ransom and impose their own ideas. The pluralism of Sikhism lies intact, but it is the small groups that are causing the disunity and wrecking sikh aspirations to be united.Sadly, many of those in the large Sikh institutions are adherents of one sadh or another.This causes more issues.Even looking at local Gurduaras abroad, when one surveys, most of the parbandhaks are clean shaven -MONEs- then how can one expect them to implement the central rules of the Sikh sidhant, when they themselves have no understanding of it nor the will to follow it? Recently, I cam across one such president of a Sikh gurduara- who was happily using terms such as murtad, kaffir...etcc, and he had no clue that as Sikhsim is an independent religion, such terms are alien and not applicable in Sikhi! Sikhism did not kick out the small groups , quite the contrary told them to adhere to the majority.But because the SGPC and main stream became locked into a situation where their own' I see here the situation similar to one like where a small majority disagrees with some law being passed by the majority, and once it goes through, the minority then lamants that it was accepted by all.Exactly that is what those Sikhs who are followers of the sadh groups doing now. As I see it, these small groups should accept the majority and then sat the secen for a dialogue, where these issues can be ironed out sensibly and agreed accomodating the righteous priciple and values per sikhi religion.But the problem is these groups KNOW that their own views will not stand up to the scrutiny of the four principles used to determine the maryada. So their maryadas etc will not get through as they have individual values not that of Gurbani and Guru sahibaan. So what one does , when they cannot win their own way, then confuse the other side and people who are ever willing scapgoats to fight over irresponsibly, while the groups will sit aside and pick up the results of the pickings! This is no way explains all, but it is a minbute attempt as the subject in discussion is very wide and sensitive and has to be 190% accurate according to the Gurbani, not tittle tattle decsions of individuals.
