[QUOTE="S|kH, post: 2385, member: 217"] Keep the font normal...hurts the eyes. Anyways, I'm always learning, so thanks for stating the obvious (that i should learn more). But, let me explain what I had stated earlier : 1) How did Guru Nanak aquire his ability for others to refer to him as a teacher? - You see, he was not born prophecized, he was not born and people did not go to see him, and bow to him. He was born...an ordinary human. He aquired being labelled a teacher, when he turned 13, and started refuting his parents rituals and the rituals that he was forced to do. He started going against the normal society, and people saw this, they ridiculed him, and others praised him. Eventually this reached a regional influence where then he became known as a teacher. Its not that hard of a concept to understand. Jesus on the other hand, you have references to "baby Jesus" "prophecized birth" "the Lord" 2) I meant "you can become it" as in, you can become as spiritual as the Guru, or exceed it. You do not believe that "God ONLY gave relevation to the Gurus, and the only way out is if you believe in the Guru"..."You can become it" means...exactly that, you can try out the foundation, and if it works for you, then you've becomed it. There is nothing to believe that OTHERS HAVE RECIEVED A RELEVATION and you haven't simply because GOD CHOSE THEM AND NOT YOU. You can try it out, as in you can read their philosophy, and try out whether it works for you or not. You do not have to believe that this is the only path, and that this is the true path because God had given relevation to the "founders" of this philosophy. 3) This is answer requires alot of detail. Stay away for now. -------- Now lets see the things you have underlined in my previous post, You quoted : "“Guru Nanak is different from Jesus as he was not simply "born religious/teacher/guru/prophet"...[U]he had acquired his ability[/U] for other people to refer to him as a teacher [U]by his actions, by his skill, and his method.”"[/U] As I explained above, he was not born a teacher...through his actions, people realized a better/proper way to live their life, a way of life that they thought was better than the original...regarding this method, the followers began to refer to him as a teacher...this was through his actions, and his method of stating his philosophy. Everything else you under-lined seems pretty self-explanatory. I suggest you also seek help on your theological understanding of Sikhism. ;) -S|kH [/QUOTE]
