There are numerous references in Gurbani which make it clear that all are performing under His command so don’t criticize them.

As a student one should study them (religions), as believer, one has to believe first because mere intellectual wont still ones mind. If karma, incarnation, nirvana are not part of some religions, they have same kinds of stuff with different pictures, which can be questionable as well.

[QUOTE="pk70, post: 73406, member: 5889"] Hello Lotus Lion ji [COLOR=black][FONT=Tahoma]Your question basically is incorrect; there is no reconciliation in this context.

Why my Master you will be angry with any one, you wont because all living belongs to you GGS Ji 25.) There are numerous references in Gurbani which make it clear that all are performing under His command so don’t criticize them. Look yourself into it.When A Sikh meets people [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]of other faiths he sees Him in them, regardless the God they worship, it is called how to understand people of other faiths and respect them as His.

As a student one should study them (religions), as believer, one has to believe first because mere intellectual wont still ones mind. If karma, incarnation, nirvana are not part of some religions, they have same kinds of stuff with different pictures, which can be questionable as well. One of my American friend said to me “ Singh I like a lot about eastren religions after discussing with you but one thing is hard to swallow.” I asked “ What is that Patrick?”[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]He said” that incarnation thing” I said” could you believe in resurrection?’[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]“ yah” he replied. I said if that is easy to swallow, incarnation cannot be hard to do so” He laughed.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Now regarding practicing religions, it is a different story. Bear in mind that you cannot judge[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]a religion by the way people practice it; for people go stray quite often.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Sorry to contradict you.
