[QUOTE="Archived_member10, post: 140118, member: 14361"] spnadmin & Gyani Jarnail Singh, The mind can always find and make argument. It is the tendency of ego to make argument when confronted rather than admit we are in error. It is also the tendency of ego to assume that we are more important than others that we consider our inferiors. In which case we do not even think we need to give credible argument because it doesn’t matter if those we consider are our inferiors realize that our arguments make no sense. What does it matter what we say to those that are beneath us, dealing with them is beneath us anyway. In the words of Marie Antoinette “Let them eat cake.” This is the feeling I get from the responses trying to deny that the Sikh Gurus meditated. I am no expert of Gurbani or even Sikh history. Yet even to one so unlearned as myself proof and references to the Gurus meditating abound and are certainly not limited to Hemkunt Sahib. There’s the story of Guru Angad meditating and devotees cutting a hole in through the side of the house to have access to him, Guru Arjun meditating on the hot plate, Guru Tegh Bahadur meditating for years in the underground chamber behind his house, and not only Guru Gobind Singh isolating himself in meditation for days before the Baisakhi when he instituted the Khalsa, but also losing himself in bliss for days with the repeating of “Thou, Thou, Thou….” There are many more examples of the Gurus meditating, but why bother to elaborate with those that have prejudged that I am part of some freak faction that has no real connection to that which is Sikh. To argue with such arrogance might give an impression that I find these arguments have the necessary sincerity for mutual growth. They do not. As to my posting the link to my blog with each of my comments, it is because I am copying and pasting this discussion onto a parallel discussion on my blog with links back to this discussion added to every copied comment. It as my way of injecting a sense of equality in this interaction. I will continue to do so. It is not spamming to include a link to an ongoing parallel discussion in each of my posts. If this is offensive to Sikh Philosophy Network I encourage you to delete my membership so we can end this unpleasantness, it has become clear that my views are unwelcome anyway. I only continue out of a sense of duty to a person that was the reason that I posted in the first place. For the sake of that person and their noble and sincere quest to understand that which is beyond good and bad I will continue until I am banned from doing so. Such is my understanding of the Khalsa way. If I am banned because of it I thank you for the disassociation. [B][COLOR=Red] Admin Note: Link to Your Blog is Again Removed.
