[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 4984, member: 189"] waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh. no need to be sorry...and ritual is the right word. the first thing we must remember is that we being Sikhs of the Shabad Guru... the GURU of NANAK JYOT.."respect" the Guru Granth as the repository of this shabad gyan. Guru nanak ji brought us this Shabad Gyan from sach Khand...and He had to somehow make it all available to us for eternity....just an oral tradition would have meant corruption and adulteration...so GURU ARJUN JI took it upon Himslef to devise such a method so that what GURU JI brought down came to us as faithful to the original as possible. Respect means we Parkash the Guru Granth on a clean Takhat, cover with Chandni, rumallas, have a sewadaar with chaur in attendance, take Hukmnama and follow the teachings... All this becomes RITUAL when we DONT bother to READ, LISTEN, FOLLOW GURBANI....but pay the most attention to... hot and cold rumallas, air conditioned sach khand room, massage the legs of the manji sahib, fan the Granth, ..etc etc...the GURU GRANTH is NOT a human body that feels cold/warm/needs air con/bathwater/toilet facilities/food/massage of legs etc etc This is BRAHMANWAAD... the BRAHMAN kept the Vedas, simrtitis, purans SECRET KNOWLEDGE for Centuries... a SHUDRA was even forbiddent o accidentally HEAR the vedas..if he was found to have committd this grave crime...even accidentally outsoed a mandir etc MOLTEN LEAD was poured into his ears...If he was guilty of having uttered a sentence from the vedas..His tongue would be torn out. The language was sanskrit... this learning was tightly controlled. GURU JI BROKE all these restrictions...Gurbani was written in the common man's language, Guru Ji spread Shabad Gyan everywhere instead of locking it up in Benares like the Brahman, GURU JI made it MANDATORY for each SIKH man woman and child to be hsi own STUDENT of GURBANI and not depend on any CLERGY/PRIEST/Brahman etc for this...GURU JI made it clear that there is NO INTERMEDIARY between a Sikh and His GURU. This was a DIRECT ASSAULT on the Monopoly of BRAMANWAAD...first the Child Guur nanak REFUSED point Blank to wear the JANEAU....BRAHMANWAAD was FURIOUS at this slap on his face ( HOw DARE ??) then the GURU refused to go around the fire for his marriage...another REVOLT ( a PLOT was hatched to crash a wall on GURU JI at BATALA during his wedding and finish him off but the wall did not collapse )...Brahmanwaad knew no anger !! He began to plot to subdue this new religion upstart.. Brahmanwaad got the chance when the New Khalsa was hunted for his HEAD...they took over the Gurdwaras, the Shrines, began to REwrite HISTORY with their own SLANT....and DILUTE and ADULTERATE SIKHI as far as possible..the One and Only thing they couldnt BREAK was the GURBANI sealed in a perfect GURU GRANTH !!!.. So they chose the second best thing.... make the SIKH treat GURBANI as so "sacred" that they would be frightend of it and leave it to the NEW BRAHMANWAAD "SIKH" PRIESTS..the Gyanis, the babas, the SANTS, to read it for them and pass off the PHALL to the Sikhs. The MORE Sikhs read and try to understand Gurbani.. the more these modern mahants priests babas feel threatened..their LIVELIHOOD is in danger..that is why they ATTACK..they EXCOMMUNICATE...they THREATEN... they Rant and Rave at every schoalr trying to unravel the mysteries of Gurbani for the ordinary man..These people so desperately want to keep GURBANI under WRAPS..." we know the true meanings, we will read it for you, do akhand paath, do ardass, you just pay us and forget the whole thing..." IF you still feel like doing something... then go and buy new rumallas, new mani sahibs, put GOLD on Gurdwra Domes, pay for marble Gurdwaras, put GOLD on the Manji sahibs, the chaurs, the battas for Degh, put air conds , PAY PAY PAY...to your hearts content BUT DO NOT READ/UNDERSTAND...and GOD FORBID try and FOLLOW what GURBANI TEACHES.... that is not your business but OURS as we are the PRIESTS/BABAS/JATHEDARS...and we are paid for this job.
