[QUOTE="Ishna, post: 151613, member: 2709"] Passingby ji Please do slow down and play a while here at SPN (don't pass by just yet) - I'm enjoying your participation. You might like to read the following resources about Sikhism and Sufism: [URL="http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/sufism/1739-sikhism-and-sufism.html#post112074"]Posted by our very own Aman Singh Ji[/URL] [URL="http://www.sikhnet.com/news/sufi-and-sikh"]Sufi and Sikh at SikhNet[/URL] Not many people seem to know about Sikhi here in Australia, but I'm more suprised that Pakistanis wouldn't know about it! Then again, if you're not interested, why learn? I'm surrounded by Christians but I admit I don't know much about them or their religion. Uh-oh... I have no idea about Krishnamurti... Echart Tolle, Thich Nhat Hanh... I've seen their books at the library I used to work at but never opened them... Haven't learned much about Buddhism... Maybe they believe they're found the truth for them, so why look for anything else? Yep, I agree with your observation You could try asking them about prayer, as prayer features incredibly strongly in Islam as I'm sure you're aware. They may meditate but not recognise it as meditation. I'm sure they have their spiritual practices / sadhana such as the 5 daily prayers. I don't want to speak for Muslims, all I can speak of is my own experiences of religion. I think following the rules can be a spiritual activity in and of itself. It's very satisfying knowing what the rule is and following it. It's very demotivating knowing what the rule is and disobeying it. From my observations as a lurker in a Muslim discussion forum, I've seen the ladies there take great pride in doing things to please Allah, for the sake of Allah. I don't see this as a particularly negative thing. They have a spiritual connection to the rules they follow. Quite remarkable. I think what you might be experiencing is contact with people who aren't particularly interested in religion. Like my colleague at work. She's Christian, she sings in a choir, but try to have a spiritual conversation with her and she closes up like a clam. Like the evolution discussion I retold recently -- she wouldn't discuss the idea that whales may have evolved into the water from the land, she quite simply said God created them like that. It is disappointing that a dialogue can't even occur. At the same time, we are so infatuated with Sikhi, it is hard to believe anyone can possibly get the same amount of joy from any other religion, but they do, so for them that is real. [/QUOTE]
