[QUOTE="Tejwant Singh, post: 115095, member: 138"] [b]Re: A Faith Ahead of its Time;The Hypocrisy of Sikhism[/b] Sukhmen, Guru Fateh. First of all I admire and congratulate you for your honesty, candor and bluntness. The title of your essay,"[B]A Faith Ahead of its Time;The Hypocrisy of Sikhism"[/B] says a lot about how you feel which is understandable. However, the hypocricy is misplaced. It is not in the Sikhi per se, which is a way of life but in the people who have failed to follow the teachings given to us in SGGS, our ONLY GURU. There are many Sikh families who still practice caste system which is totally against Sikhi but there are also many who do not. So, when I said that your anger, disappointment is misplaced, this is what I meant. In my family of " Bhapas", there are Jatts, Ramagarhias, Rajputs, Aroras and many more from different castes and clans and there is no rift but harmony and acceptance of each others' customs. Sikhi is the only way of life , which has not stopped in time, unlike other religions, but evolves with our own understanding of Gurbani. A young man like you can help change all this and make people follow the teachings of SGGS. Start a FB, Twitter group and find like minded people who think like you and abhor the hypocricy practiced by the Sikhs in the name of Sikhi and create discussion groups, pamphlets and start visiting Gurdwaras as a group to spread the teaching of SGGS against the caste system. We, here at SPN are at your disposal for any kind of help you need. You can also use this forum as a venue and invite the like minded people of your age and start a new thread so we can discuss this openly and create a framework together how to combat this apartheid practiced by some which gives a bad name to Sikhi. Let's work together and you will see how you will be able to change the Sikhs with your efforts, honesty and thoughtfulness. Let's get the ball rolling...... I want to thank you for coming and posting your thoughts here and opening our eyes and I urge you to help us all become proactive in combating this. Do not forget to post your essay here when you have presented that in your English class. Regards and waiting for you to become the engine of change so that we can tag along behind you.
