[QUOTE="Original, post: 202033, member: 14400"] ...you're a beautiful man, who has the skill to ball n bat succinctly on matters in general, but should in my view, take time out to visit Chaz's camp to strike the right balance [in gest]. Sikhism spiritual starts when thinking stops - and its your God given entitlement, but hey, take the horse to water you can, make it drink or not is down to the horse. I'm at SPN because I enjoy the banter, otherwise I'm too busy enjoying life and gardening. I see you all as "my" family, who are, by n large fluttering around the "word" of our living Guru, and by definition, seva for me is putting on this forum [B]my[/B] "wisdom" of the Sikhi to which [B]I[/B] subscribe, the one passed on to me by my forefathers. The beauty of it is H - I really feel it, I am what my Baba Ji, Dada Ji, Pardada Ji were. And, that thought goes all the way back, unbroken, unmodified, DNA rubber stamped "SinghKing" to the first ape that walked the earth - [Chaz, for survival sake had to stick my chest out to attract the best Kaur there was]. The argumentative side on the forum [I refrain] is so fundamental, because knowledge grows out of such differences and scholars debate over what could be true, real, or right in their fields. We all use argumentation to put our views across. An ability to argue convincingly would've been in our ancestors' interest as they evolved more advanced forms of communication. But of course, as you know, since the most persuasive lines of reasoning are not always the most logical, our brains apparent flaw may result from this need to justify our actions and convince others to see our point of view - rightly or wrongly. As a result, one ends up making decisions that look rational, rather than making rational decisions. But hey, that's mapping n shaping our pattern of thought and not society as a whole. What Sikhism seeks to address in the wider meaning of the word, is a systematic, well balanced lifestyle. And, I think Baba Nanak went and done it with the three pillars of vs, kr, and nam jap. All ethical theories [Sikh] arise because sizeable population are dissatisfied, either with their personal lives or with the world in which they live. If a person is content with his/her disposition and with the situation in which the world finds itself, she/he will not in general seek to change it. What would be the point of trying to do so ? Nanak found himself amidst undesirable and inequal socio-political/ religious regimes, result of which is Sikhi. His endeavour was to employ this conception as a guide in directing the application of of human intellectual activities to contemporary social problems. Nanak wasn't looking for a reconstruction of an ideology per se, but yes, revaluation of the whole system. We as a result [Sikh, as a social group] have evolved and will continue to do so and will be more likely to survive and reproduce. Our pattern of thought n behaviour [saintly] will be favoured by the process of natural selection [you with a gori today, what next] and believe me, we'll be in demand, so get rid of that fat you're carrying. Look where we are today on the "altruistic" agenda for human betterment - More another time - it's good to talk ! Love n Live [/QUOTE]
