[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 150788, member: 189"] Most non-sikh historians have stated that Guur hargobind Sahib turned a Corner " morr" from the supposedly "peaceful" saintly religion of Guru nanak ji-Guru Arjun Ji and MILITARISED SIKHISM by Miri-Piri and fighting battles....But Sikhs have always held that as a wrong notion because Shakti and Bhagtee have always been two sides of the same COIN that Guru nanak ji forged.
