I was in the vicinity - a mere two days' trek away - when I was in Hemkunt, and took a diversion to Badrinath. Have you been there?"</p><p></p><p>"No, I haven't. You are lucky you had the opportunity!"</p><p></p><p>I continued quickly, thinking I was on a roll: "And I've been to Hardwar, and Benares, and Gaya ... all major centres of Hindu pilgrimage. And umpteen ones in Bali and Nepal. You know I love visiting any place of worship!"</p><p></p><p>"No, no!" piped in Raj. "I didn't mean as a tourist. Like me ... the way I pop in here every time the spirit moves me. I wonder if you EVER go to a Hindu mandir the way I come to a gurdwara."</p><p></p><p>I went quiet, contemplative quiet, not sure what I should say.</p><p></p><p>"For example, when was the last time you were in a mandir?"</p><p></p><p>I thought about it and shrugged my shoulders.</p><p></p><p>Raj: "H-m-mm. So tell me, have you ever been to a mandir in all the years you've been living in Canada? Thirty years, forty years ...?"</p><p></p><p>I could see where he was heading, and didn't want to go there. I knew he knew the answer, and I wasn't willing to be drawn into a discussion on the issue.</p><p></p><p>He looked at me and elbowed me gently. "Never? You haven't gone to a mandir here once, have you?"</p><p></p><p>I shook my head in agreement.</p><p></p><p>"How come?" I knew this was coming.</p><p></p><p>"I don't know, Raj. I really don't know ... No particular reason, I guess."</p><p></p><p>Mercifully, he dropped the subject.

I think it is easy for you to come to a gurdwara, even though you are a Hindu.

[QUOTE="Admin, post: 135460, member: 1"] [B][SIZE=4]Moving Forward, Or Sliding Backward[/SIZE][/B] by T. SHER SINGH I was not surprised to see Rajesh Mehta at the gurdwara. I knew he occasionally attended the Sunday morning services, and sometimes even dropped in at other hours. After the kirtan, we headed for the langar hall together.

I know that, more often than not, I'll be wrong and, from time to time, I'll have to regroup with all of my faculties and start all over again. Accordingly, what I have stated above is how I feel and what I believe in. Honestly. I shared it all with a Sikh friend the other day to see if it met the test of the light of the day. He pounced on me as soon as I finished, and instantly accused me of betraying all that Sikhi stood for - by being intolerant of other faiths. I begged to differ. Sikhi demands that I be tolerant - and more! Actually respectful! - of other faiths. Which I am. I revel in the devotion and faith and commitment others show, in their respective ways, to their spiritual path. And get inspiration from it. But Sikhi at no point requires me to delve in those practices as a show of support or empathy. The passionate verses of the Bhagats Namdev, Ravidas and other great Hindu souls included in the Guru Granth, drench me in joyful tears and inspire me along my own path, but at no point do I then adopt the very rituals they delved in (and overcame). Moreover, I do not criticize Hindu - or any other - forms of worship. I do not advocate any opposition to it amongst those who practice them. I neither proselytize nor preach. Yes, I do try to discern for myself and share with my fellow-Sikhs what is true, unadulterated Sikhi and what isn't - and I try to add to the dialogue for those who wish to know about Sikhi. And yes, I do tear off the veils of pakhand (hypocrisy) and fraud, no matter which mantle the scoundrel throws on his shoulders - Sikh, Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Jew or whatever - but never, NEVER do I give myself or anyone the license to decry another's religion. Thus, for example, it is no right of mine to question the worship of idols BY Hindus. But I do question when the worship of idols is used as a front for insurance scams by insuring those very idols for millions of dollars. I do not question the Hindu practice of worshipping a multiplicity of gods and goddesses, but I do take umbrage with charlatans who prey on those very human sentiments to scam millions of dollars from their devotees thus blinded by their devotion. And so on and so forth. Someday, I hope, I'll have the courage to tell dear Raj to his face my answer to his question. In the meantime, I await your judgements ... and continue to hide behind the pseudonym I have assigned him for the purpose of this exercise.
