[QUOTE="Sikh80, post: 73407, member: 5290"] It is an interesting post. However, there is one point that has triggered your feelings and sentiments and have brought you to ask this question. Yes, there are many faiths and religions that were the gifts of god -men and prophets.They were all superior souls and had attained the state of communion with the Almighty, at least it is said this way. Each one advised the humanity to reach the supreme goal of self realisation. This may not be explicitly stated in some faiths and nor ,in my opinion, is required to be stated. When one starts believing in a faith one should stick to that faith and start developing concepts else one shall be lost in the meaning of paradise for each faith has an explanation for this. It is on account of this difference in faiths that we have different religions that teach one to attain spirituality and being a superior human being. To this extent it is reasonable to expect the difference and the similarities in the religions and faith. As pk 70 had stated in his post that it is on account of the difference in timings of the prophets that they had to incorporate in their philosphies few things that differ from another. No two faiths will be exactly similar. It is not a science that we shall have newtonian laws same all over the world. When we talk of science of spirituality we are guided by the teachings of these prophets and the great souls who taught us as per they saw the things as per their perspectives and hence the difference. However, there is one GOd .There cannot be a Hindu God or sikhs God. In nutshell when we look at the faith that we have to follow we try to understand that particular faith only.If my presumption is correct you are a sikh and hence a simple advice that you should stick to it and try to rationalise. The comparison with other faiths is not going to take us further.It is likely to create confusion, that you have in ample, is clear from your post. Pl. do not take it as an offence. It is the part of discovering ourselves. I am sure you shall have many unanswered questions about sikhi and sikhism. Why not begin with that and let us share that all of us do here.? Comapring the fine prints of other faiths and beliefs is not a solution at all. It shall have a throtling effect only and shall be a hindrance in the spiritual progress. You have also stated about the bells of temple.Yes these are very sweet as well. But by bowing down at Gurudwara and the ringing of bell is not a comparison. Every faith has its practices and rituals. Each one is good as it suits vast majority of people practicising that faith. All religions have simple and straight forward objective of making us a good human being first. Sikhism also begin with this.i.e how should we lead a truthful life. Since I am a sikh I shall be guided by all that Guru sahibs have stated.It is of little use for me to study as why there is no theory of Karma or reincarnation in some other faiths.There would be many things that sikhism may not have as compared to other faith.It is not likely to dilute the concepts of sikhism and [I]vice versa[/I] is also true. Let us stick to one faith and proceed our journey that is always on. I have stated the way I felt. My posts are usually infested with spelling mistakes. Forgive me for this. Regards and all the luck.
