If you read Shaikh Farid ji's baani in SGGS, it becomes clear of his conversation with the crow that ate away almost all his flesh while he was in the forests (?) doing chilla . A poetic conversation between him and the crow in which he tells the crow to not touch his eyes as he wanted to see...

Do Nihangs identify themselves as hindu ?

The hindutva forces, it seems are in full force to subvert sikh identity by mish mashing it with hinduism . Sanatan Sikh - Wikipedia This article says , Sanatan Sikhs are orthodox Sikhs who were sidelined by the "Tat Khalsa" movement of the early 1900s. In doing so , it has demonized Tat...

Living baani in practicality is tough isn't it ? so tough esp with people who make u angry

Nothing forces you to pause and reflect on what you're doing in life than sorrow , dukh ! Nothing forces you to see this fakeness of this relationships (parents, fiance, friends) , how unreal they can be, how fleeting and temporary only when the hard reality slaps on your face and tells you what...

They haven't dehumanized or bullied me , in reality ! For real, they've bullied themselves and dehumanized themselves only What we do unto others happens to us . They sowed cactus, they will reap thorns too . Will they remember me when they're having a down time in the rollercoaster of life.
