[QUOTE="davinderdhanjal, post: 137737, member: 13600"] [b]Re: O Khotey-aa! ,Which include Khushwant Singh[/b] Dear SPNADMIN, "[I]And a fraction of the panth would argue that one must have taken amrit sanchar to be a Singh or a Kaur[/I]." By being born and going through the ritual of 'amrit sanchar' does not provide direction and route for the child. Child will not be able to uphold the values instilled by that ritual till say age of about 10-15 when a child would know what is required of a Singh or Kaur. So I would think that is the time, or the time when a person realises what it means to be a Singh or Kaur, should the person be given 'amrit sanchar' and uphold the requirements. Amritdhari is the 'embodyment of Guru Gobind Singh' - how many people actually are anywhere near that! If just assuming the name Singh or Kaur makes one 'embodyment of Guru Gobind Singh' would mock sikhism - the killers of Sikhi would run horse and cart through us! Sikhs are those following NANAKS' teachings - Singhs are those who stand up and be counted as protectors of the faith under any adversity. We need both! The 'allegiance by SRM code', I do not know what that states but I am a Sikh born in Kenya, brought up there till age of 16 and then in UK - I have always understood allegiance as I have specified - when you are born you are a human being nurtured by a sikh family - being in Punjab you are a Punjabi - there are other SIKHS who are in other places and uphold Nanaks' values - they are 'other placers' then - we are Indians as our forefathers helped to shape this nation to become a nation free of tyrnee - as the world gets smaller we are a part of it and must contribute to that too. Is that too simple? You are basing most of your comments on SRM - I have mentioned earlier Guru Nank did not have such rules - he wanted us to be good humans! That was why Moslems, Hindus and others valued his teachings!! So those people who are 'good sikhs of Nanak' may not find teachings of SRM as understandable or palatable as ones who produce them. To bring all good people (sikhs) into the fold - broaden the 'rules' to simplicity and goodness first. That will encompass a bigger community and lighten the burden we have better. [/QUOTE]
