Dear Naam Ji Gur fateh. Your query about who is Satguru is answered in Shri Guru Granth Sahib ji by Fourth Guru Nanak, Shri Guru RamDaas ji on Ang 169: Jis miliay man hoye anand so satgur kahiay || Man ki dubidha binas jaye har param pad lahiay || Meeting whom (our) mind is filled with...

Gur Fateh to all. For all those who believe soch is for thought process, please read the following verse by Guru Arjun Dev Ji in Sukhmani Sahib: Soch karai dinas ar raat man ki mail na tan te jaat (He) bathes day and night (but) the filth of mind is not washed off by cleansing the body I...

Gur Fateh to all I do not see any relevance of this article in SPN. I humbly request the writers/readers to please write only on topics that have some (however distant) connection to Sikh Philosophy so that we maintain the spirit and decorum of this platform. With all due respect and...

Dear Amardeep Ji As per Gurmat, none knows when the universe originated. Guru Nank Dev ji says in Japji Sahib (Ang 4) : " ਕਵਣੁ ਸੁ ਵੇਲਾ ਵਖਤੁ ਕਵਣੁ ਕਵਣ ਥਿਤਿ ਕਵਣੁ ਵਾਰੁ ॥ ਕਵਣਿ ਸਿ ਰੁਤੀ ਮਾਹੁ ਕਵਣੁ ਜਿਤੁ ਹੋਆ ਆਕਾਰੁ ॥ ਵੇਲ ਨ ਪਾਈਆ ਪੰਡਤੀ ਜਿ ਹੋਵੈ ਲੇਖੁ ਪੁਰਾਣੁ ॥ ਵਖਤੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਓ ਕਾਦੀਆ ਜਿ ਲਿਖਨਿ ਲੇਖੁ ਕੁਰਾਣੁ ॥ ਥਿਤਿ...

Dear Prabhsmart Ji Maskin Ji's Guru was Sri Guru Granth sahib Ji and NO human being. And the said episode happened in Mumbai (India) and not in Sindh. Accompnying him was Baba Varyam Singh (If I remember correctly), a highly respected Sikh scholar. Gur fateh Kawaljit Singh

Gur Fateh Another aspect to it. If you visit a friend's house where an idol is installed and you do not bow before it, are you not hurting your friend's sentiments? Farid ji says (On Ang 1384) "ਜੇ ਤਉ ਪਿਰੀਆ ਦੀ ਸਿਕ ਹਿਆਉ ਨ ਠਾਹੇ ਕਹੀ ਦਾ" " If you wish to meet the Lord, do not break anyone's...

Dear Bhagat Singh ji Let me attempt to reply the first and last of your questions. 1. What is enlightenment?. English as a language has severe limitations when we try to explain the concepts of Gumat. I will try my best. Gurbani calls it Anand. English translates it as "Bliss" which in...

Thanks aad0002 ji Daas Kawaljit Singh

The statement "If I don't believe in God.... Is Sikhism pretty pointless" is a frivolous observation. It is like telling "If I don't believe in my father... Is Family System Pretty Pointless?". Yes and No. It is pointless for disbeliever, no for a believer. The pillar of Sikhism is unflinching...

Satbir Ji There is life beyond what is visible and percieved. The God's (and those who reunite with Him) existense will not end with anihilation of universe. This has happened earlier countless of times and will continue to happen. He is as Guru Nank Dev Ji said " ਆਦਿ ਸਚੁ ਜੁਗਾਦਿ ਸਚੁ ॥ ਹੈ ਭੀ...

Dear Kandola ji, God did not create Homosexuality. He created humans (and everything else) and gave 'Budhi' to distinguish between proper and improper, good and bad. What you choose is your free will, but consequences of the choice are not as per your free will. It is like a video game, all...
