    Photos of Gurus – Aesthetic Experience or Distorting Sikhi?

    Again more myopia. Don't do the Ardas if you don't want to remember the messenger it's pointless by your reasoning. Guru Gobind singh Ji was a patron of the arts, for why else does Paonta Sahib exist? Poetry, calligraphy all sorts went on there. The detailed frescoes in Old Gurdwaras were not...

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    The last time I used my real name people kept sending me messages that I should give lectures or write a book, I'm not going down that route again I enjoy my anonymity. I say this with the utmost respect, my analysis of this material took alot of focus. The SGGS is a unique scripture in that...

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    Hi Aman, I watched the video as far as I could digest then stopped. I am aware of the khoj of this individual for a long time, I refrain from partaking of his lectures and articles. I am going to start of being respectful as I can as I don't want to get personal with this particular...

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    This translation is wrong the first line does not mention ritualistic bathing etc, sochay soch means thinking, meaning you can not get to me through thoughts. I am disturbed where you are getting your translation from. Regarding the individual who asked "says who" and that maybe you have to...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    This forum when it first started was not like this, people disagreed with one another and moved on, I don't know whether it's a generational thing but we no longer believe that it may be possible that the other person may know something you don't...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    My post was an attempt to move the conversation forward from just you and me. I get it you've got an axe to grind sadly I'm not your man, find another target. I am happy that others agree with you, that doesn't change anything for me. Feel free to contribute to the conversation with a level of...

    Until someone experiences divinity themselves there will never be an end to these discussions, that is the only evidence for truth.

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    Your sidelining the central point of the discussion, you have said bad evidence in support of an argument is ridiculous, I agree but the problem is 2 things. I have not provided bad evidence in fact I am saying you can't prove either way. This leads on to second argument that logic and reason...

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    I'm not advocating the negation of reason I'm talking about going beyond it to the realm of spirit which is what SIKHI does. The uncertainty principle or principle of indeterminacy is the impasse beyond which reason could not go in its understanding of reality. Will my comments here which are...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    Movie forward, what are the prejudices underpinning the belief that men are more superior to women. There are several prejudices which are all countered by Gurbani but it is important that we identify these else we commit intellectual dishonesty, as can be seen in the previous post, whereby...

    Does the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar Architecture reflect the Sikhi of Guru Nanak?

    Christian apologetics are responsible for the need for a religion and it's scriptures to be logical, rational and reasoned. Partly in due to the enlightenment period and it's implications on theology, this is how they protected themselves. However your arguments are shrivel and weak in the face...

    Self Confidence About The Way I Look And Feel

    Do what makes you happy. The SIKHI swaroop is not popularised in western media until it is there will always be an inner anguish for youngsters. Opinion making power for SIKHI swaroop is also missing from western millieu. You will find people who will accept you and reject you in either form...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    No it wasn't a sexist comment and I stand by every word I have said. Your argument is crooked by design if you don't understand this then you shouldn't be representing any form of equality let alone a seat at the table. Let me make myself very clear, men, women and third gender people have...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    My comments about macho women was an observation about the state of affairs around female participation, sexism is where you use a prejudice about a particular sex to discriminate, I didn't do that. In fact I will go further and say women don't really care about these issues it's just a fringe...

    The Narcissism Of Small Differences

    Baru Sahib is an exclusive school for females how does that make the man who did this sexist? Are you doing the same level of research? There are definitely anti women views in the panth I disagree with the belief of women not being able to do seva in the sanctum sanctorum of harimandar and...
