[QUOTE="Archived_Member1, post: 75907, member: 4703"] [b]Re: Allegation of sexual abuse by S. Gurbax Singh Ji Kala Afghana Ji.[/b] i think the vast majority of people wash their feet for the same reason they wash their hands, for the same reason we shower before our morning nitmen, for the same reason we do panj ishnaan before Rehras sahib. out of respect for Guru. what kind of respect does it show if we track dirty footprints all over the clean floor/sheets of the Gurdwara? and WHY make such an issue of it? so amrit vela is only relevant for some people in the world but not others? that seems discriminatory, which is certainly anti-gurmat. amrit vela is mentioned hundreds of times in SGGS... i thought you guys believed everything in SGGS? is bowing or showing respect the same as idol worship? when we matha tek to SGGS are we worshiping Guru? i know i'm not... in Sohila, Guru Ramdas tells us to bow before great saints. was Baba Deep Singh ji not a saint? [SIZE=4] ਕਰਿ ਸਾਧੂ ਅੰਜੁਲੀ ਪੁਨੁ ਵਡਾ ਹੇ ॥ [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]kar saaDhoo anjulee pun vadaa hay. [/SIZE] [SIZE=2]Greet the Holy Saint with your palms pressed together; this is an act of great merit. [/SIZE] [SIZE=4] ਕਰਿ ਡੰਡਉਤ ਪੁਨੁ ਵਡਾ ਹੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ [/SIZE] [SIZE=3]kar dand-ut pun vadaa hay. ((1)) rahaa-o. [/SIZE] [SIZE=2]Bow down before Him; this is a virtuous action indeed. ((1)(Pause))[/SIZE] so instead you believe Guru ji did parlour tricks to fool the audience? exactly. so why does he say it? why would it have anything to do with "enemies" of the faith? the janam sakhis, local legends, and the vaaran of Bhai Gurdas ji all describe miracles of the Gurus. i've even experienced a miracle myself. : - ) or at least something completely unexplainable by me or by doctors. i wonder why our Gurus would do brahmanical rituals? about ALL amritdharis? there are bad apples in every bunch. it's not fair to criticize an entire group of people for the actions of a very few. for example? so why are they mentioned repeatedly in SGGS? were our Gurus Vashnavite? what are the brahmanical tinges? not RSS, Congress. : - ) his point is to divide the panth, how better than to call respected Sikhs as hindus?
