[QUOTE="P_Sikh, post: 53725, member: 4765"] SSA, First of all thanks to Soul Jyot Ji for nice piece of information. Also, aad002 ji for your comments on Bangi Nama yes i agree with you that this book is not to be read like a novel/assignment and not to be read in a go, there is many personal experiences which need to be felt before understanding and that's the reason i didn't start this book even though i downloaded it last month. I also agree with 'aad0002' that path might be slightly different in reaching our True God (Though i havn't read Bangi Nama yet so i'm talking in general) but that MUST BE APPRECIATED as long as that is pure and is not away from FUNDAMENTAL MESSAGE from our Gurus. Many people (and even few western scholars) think Sikhism preached by Guru Gobind Singh Ji was different than Guru Nanak Dev Ji BUT THAT ISN'T THE CASE. Following is the text from the book 'History of the Sikhs - I - Khuswant Singh' "In its essential beliefs Guru Gobind Singh introduced no change. His Sikhism was that of Guru Nanak, believing in the One supreme Creator who was without form or substance and beyond human comprhension (Jap Sahib). He condemned the worship of idols (Jap Sahib). HE simply gave the institution of Guruship a permanent and abiding character by vesting it in the immortality of the Granth and in the continuity of the Khalsa Panth. Like Guru Nanak, Guru Gobind Singh believed that the sovereign remedy for for the ills of mankind was nam - a life of prayer. He did not alter the form of prayers - the Adi Granth remained the scripture; his own works never accorded the same sanctity. He disaaproved of asceticism (Sabad Hazare) and ridiculed the caste system. His motto was: 'manas ki jat sab ek hi pahcanbo' - know all mankind as one caste. Like Guru Nanak, he believed that the end of life's jurney was the merging of the individual in God (Akal Ustat). The only change Guru Gobind singh brought was to expose the other side of the medal. Where as Guru Nanak had propagated goodness, Guru Gobind Singh condemned evil. One preached the love of one's neighbour, the other the punishment of transgressors. Guru Nanak's God loved hs saints; Guru Gobind's God destroyed his enemies. The results were visible within a few months of the famous bapitismal ceremony when a sect of pacifists was suddenly transformed into a militant brotherhood of crusaders. The hills around Anandpur began to echo to the beating of wardrums and military commands." So what would we say that Guru Gobind Singh Ji introduced changes in Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Sikhism, the answer is BIG NO because Khalsa by Gurtu Gobind Singh Ji obeys the VERY FUNDAMENTAL MESSAGE preached by Guru Nank Dev ji though the way Sikhs evolved during that time seem to be different. I also agree with Surinder Kaur Cheems Ji that we can't rely 100% on translation. But I started this thread to discuss a very important question which most of the people might ask to themselves so please lets stick to the topic. [/QUOTE]
