[QUOTE="lotus lion, post: 73877, member: 5620"] I have been thinking about James UK Ji's post for a while and have been attempting to find parellels between Sikhi and Christianity. If you look at all major religions, one will find that serving, praising and honouring saints is rated highly. Where followers of religions, unintentionally may i add, go wrong is to believe that only their saints are correct. James UK ji's post is a perfect example, through no fault of his own. I am of the belief that Saints are not simply one that are born into a particular religion, but that they possess particular qualities And are found in all traditions. These are listed in the Guru Granth Sahib as follows: [LIST=1] [*]To engage in meditation on the All-pervading Lord through the [I]Mantra[/I] of His Name. [*]To have the Wisdom to look alike upon pleasure and pain (i.e. to become free of duality, the pair of opposites or "likes and dislikes"); to live the pure lifestyle, free of vengeance or generosity. [*]To be kind to all beings; overpower the five thieves (lust, anger, greed, attachment, and pride. All other evils tendencies in the world are a function of these five. They overtake us like a disease, spreading their filth until they control us). [*]To take the Kirtan of the Lord's Praise ([I]Rabb Dee Sifat-Salaah[/I]) as their food; and remain untouched by Maya, like the lotus in the water. [*]They share the Teachings with friend and enemy alike (i.e., they adopt Teaching in which the friend and the enemy look alike to them); and to love the devotion of God. [*]Not to listen to slander; renouncing self-conceit, (eradicating false ego-sense or [I]Aapaa[/I]) to become the dust of all (i.e., to develop humility).[/LIST]Reference: [URL="http://www.gurbani.org/webart300.htm"]SIX SIGNS OF A PERSON OF HOLINESS OR PERFECTION[/URL] Jesus Christ would easily be a saint, and more, according to the above. As a result, I can say that i understand to a [B]degree[/B] what was meant by the fact that only if deeds are done in the name of Jesus Christ is it worth anything. It is not that the Deeds are done in the name of Jesus Christ, but that the Deeds are done with a Saint or a Holy prophet who possesses particular traits and qualities in mind. Thanks, Lotus PS James Uk Ji, if you are still an active member of this board, i would sincerely wish to find out what you think about it. Good Bad or Ugly. [/QUOTE]
