In Thailand, Bhuddism is distorted by Brahmanism. I even went to Cambodia and Laos. In Laos, Buddhism is still 'original'.

In all my years of talking top hindus, and Buddhists, of all types, I only find this point brought up in Sikh circles. I'm afraid to say, outside of Sikh circles, such views are not to be found.

PS. Please do define what you mean by "brahminism". thx.

I'm not good at defining what I witness by seeing. By this I mean that I spent a whole month in each country. But I stayed in Thailand for many years. It takes a creative writer to do what. All I can say is the Buddhist believe in Durga, Kali and symbol of Lingam which is actually exactly like the male sex organ instead of the Shivalingam in India.
Even stalls in market places sell stuff like that but it is sacred to them.

Thousand apologies.

Dear friend:

They do not believe in Durga: depending on where you are in laos/Thailand, Tantra was once popular there, and it is believed a tantric masted, probably Padmasambhava subdued dakinis into practicing the dharma who then offer protection to the humans there.
Also, Buddhism adapts more to a culture more then anything. as for Lingam, I cannot comment except there are some more "sexual" imagery found in tantra that is symbolic as a means of taming ones subconscious mind ( a very strong force) to follow and practice Dharma. This is hard to explain, so my apologies.

hello all

I am very new here but can people explain what is going on?

In Buddhist literature, stories of drugs, etc. are symbolic and not taken litterally, however, I guess that is not prevelant in Sikhism.

- Surinderjit


There is a difference between a message given on social evils or problems (like that given in AGGS) and the useless vulgar stories that are written in Dasam Granth. The use of vulgar language in Dasam Granth is unwarranted and is not the work of any Sikh guru. Sikh Gurus have used a sensible language wherever they wanted to give any such message.

I get surprised by people who claim these stories are written to give knowledge. Its like somebody watching porn movies everyday and then arguing that he is watching all those stories to get knowledge what can happen in life. ...ahh!! what a logical answer! bravo!!

Anybody interested in knowing should first start reading Dasam Granth and then use AGGS as a touching stone to evaluate it. The truth will not evade an open and logical mind.

Dear Friend

Are You aure that as your example states that Dasam garnth is about /or very equivalent to porn movies

Well in my opiniion they are not similar ( opinion do differ!)

Thats make me wonder have everbody thinking so have actually watched Porn ? or Dasam Granth

One more question come to me Is there anyway to talk about Porn and relate to it in examples without actually having watched it in life

Well as I said earlier Opinions do differ and in my case they are not rigid and do change as my life come accross various experiences .But at the Moment In my opinion Dasam Granth is NOT Porn at the least



Thanks

Dear friend,

The comparison done in my commnet is that of tendency of people to tell that those stories in Dasam Granth are giving knowledge. The similarity drawn is that of excuse making style, not of the subject itself.

Yes, personal opinions may differ but Gurmat does not differ. If you use the touchstone of AGGS to evaluate Dasam Granth you will find that so many things are not consistent with AGGS.

What makes people believe that Dasam Granth was written by Guru Gobind Singh Ji. How can they have faulty thinking for the Sikh Gurus (I don't know if people are doing it consciously or unconsciously). How can we aware people about what they are reading? How can we shatter this organized crime? By crime here I mean (distorting Sikhism). I was not aware about what was written in Dasam Granth and what is the controversy behind it. But now that I know, I am really astonished to see that people are actually supporting Dasam Granth. I feel ashamed that people are not able to realize how Sikhs themselves are making fun of themselves.

People should see this video and try to analyze some of the disastrous writings in Dasam Granth. I am really thankful to people who made this video.

what i can see is this.... these people have there own ageda some are just lost and the others are just trying to distort sikhism to satisfy there ego....

When it comes to the question of who is kab syam and kab raam... they give these blaphamous arguments which are just laughable....

when in dasam granth it says

"post bhang afeem mangayi, piyo mad sok bida kar daaryo"

take post bhang affeem and alchohol and all your tensions and worries shall be removed

take this kind of dirt and call it the bani of our great guru dasam patsha shri guru gobind singh ji..

dont these people have any shame? a "granth" which is filled with stories of sex, drugs, lieing cheating etc is called the "dasam granth"? what do all these stories teach us? are these stories supposed to teach us not to do these things which some peopel claim thats wha they do they make you think of things which u have never though before in your life. how is reading stories that have people taking each others clothes away etc (dont want to get into detail) supposed to control kaam?

This is no personal attack on vijaydfeep but i can see that he went to india he tried to take khanday bhatay tha amrit from nihungs and they rejected him because of his caste... nihungs are the number one promoters of dasam granth... cant you see that what these stories have done to these people... they were once ghuru ki fauj but know they are justa bunch of drugged out fakes.... what has the dasam granth done for these druggies.... and yet when u come back from india u are still hellbent on proving dasam granth to be the work of guru gobind singh ji..

Long time no see dear Bhai Inter national Khiladi.


If you spit on an idiot like das.Das will make his face under your mouth.

anyway
"post bhang afeem mangayi, piyo mad sok bida kar daaryo"

here brought poppy,canabis and opium,drink prode made sorrow to flee.

Kindly prove the Chrecter number and verse number as this verse is not going well with the tenses.

when a person is one with Akal,he finds self with evil also.

That is state of Turiya Pad where sin and virtue are the same and three qualties are left behind.


Who told you that das was discrinmated upon by Nihungs due to caste.

They rather were offended by das for siding with so called outcastes.


So say thanks to Akal and reading of Dasham Granth,which is in language of outacastes with word like Burhh and Luund etc. from Dravidian background.

After givng Shaheedi.We have over thwon the upper castes off.

See the pictures of Bhai Sangat Singh Ji(from Chamar Ancesters) and Bhai Jeevan Singh Ji(of Churha Ancesters) on our website.

all due to mercy of of Akal Mahakal(the demigod of Chandalas had same name but Dasham Granth told that true God has such atributes of Mahakal) our Jathedar is also an out caste or a Vartya.

Dear Brother Sherab,

sorry for staying off the forum for long time.

anyway in Sikhs salvation is not abtained after some one dies.

It is obtained while one is alive.


As per in budhism what das is aware that when mind is free from sorrow nirwana or Salvation is obtained.

That is not as such in us.

In us when our ego mind is eliminated and our mind is one with universal mind(mind of God).We are salvaged.

in that state we find

ਪੰਨਾ 1157, ਸਤਰ 13
ਪ੍ਰਭ ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਨਕ ਮਈ ॥੮॥੩॥੬॥
प्रभ नानक नानक नानक मई ॥८॥३॥६॥
Parabẖ Nānak Nānak Nānak ma­ī. ||8||3||6||
Nanak, Nanak, Nanak, has merged into the Image of God. ||8||3||6||
ਮਃ 5 - [SIZE=-1]view Shabad/Paurhi/Salok[/SIZE]

There are
simlar verse unto Bhagat Kabir Sahib and and Bhagat Namdev Ji.

in that state we are above evil and good.

Then we find all wrong and evil also as our own(not the individual but God) deeds.

compilation of such work is compoed in Dasham Granth Sahib.

As your are aware that there is hinyana in budhism which was absobed in India but is Back vide Ambedkar and Vipasyan doing Goenaka Ji.

opposer of Dasham Granth are Hinyanas of Sikhs while supporters are like Mahayana(who have faith in God).

And Mahayana suruvived and is still surviving in Indian since last thousands years or more.

In Leh,Lahaul,Sikkim,Arunanchal and Tripura.


As per Mahayana Guru Nanak Dev Ji Sahib are second coming of Maha Padam Sambhav(to took budhism to tibbet and ahead) and so is called Nanak Lama.

In way to Leh from Kargil,we have a Gurudwara called Pather Sahib.Pather is stone and local Lamas(budhsist monks) discovered this stone as while making the raod,they were not been reomved.Lamas told that as Nanak Lama Sat there so they should not be removed.


some other Gurudwaras are located a indo tibbet borber in Sikkim,care of which is taken by Lepcha Budhists natives of Sikkim.

WEbsite of Dasham Granth is as follows

Sri Dasam Granth Sahib
http://www.patshahi10.org

To understand bani of Tenth Master is alsways good for a new convert.

Akal Bless.

sat shri akal,

I have a few questions for followers of Dasam Granth.

1. We are the youth of India.( Me being 20 years old female). Do the Dasam Granth followers want to give that crappy education to their daughters? (To mention: I am not talking about some people who have lost their minds and are sending their daughters to different deras, where the poor girls are being exploited. People like them would definitely support Dasam Granth (They just view religion as something what a handful of people (dressed in dastaars, who look like real educated beings but in reality know nothing about relegion) tend to teach them. They are fooling Sikhs. They are attacking on human weaknesses and making people follow them. Now it depends on us how we want to interpret religion(with knowledge or believing in something blindfolded). How shameful is it that the real Sikhs like professor Inder singh ghagga are being excommunicated. Who gave those people right to determine whether someone is a true Sikh or not. Are they trying to be our Gurus?

2. How can you call yourself a Sikh if you happen to have dirty imagination about the Sikh Gurus. Are you trying to say that Guru Gobind Singh ji was different from the other nine Guru's? If the other 9 Gurus didn't happen to believe in such lusty education, wouldn't they not choose Guru Gobind Singh ji as 10th Guru? So, technically you are trying to defame Guru Gobind Singh ji's personality which I would say is shameful.

Dear miss Berar,

Answer 1.

The way Deardars do this thing so were many yogis and peers doing the same as it is writtan in Chartropakhyan.

Yes for those who live in cushy life never go to slums or rural area or say are not the fighetr internaly or externaly such things will be strange.

we have to deicide. to be Sikh resreicted to Gurudwara like Jains and budhists in past or say Vashavnite Brahmins.Or do we have to be aggresive over our potential foe.

Should das again post good chreavcter certificate for Kala Afghana Ji?
Answer 2.

Guru is in all and does all.One who does not see Guru in all does cribs for good or bad.
