[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 85012, member: 189"] I "GREW UP" on those pictures....as my mum led us in our DAILY ARDASS twice a day.... our Favourite kavita used to be....:AAraa ji lagda piayara..sees nu cheerdaah....(Bhai Mati Dass Ji being sawn alive in front of Guru teg bahdur Ji Sahib) "Kesh smabhaal sikha..kesh smabhaal oyeh..lootteh gayeh laal tereh..looteh gayeh laaloyeh....(Bhai Taru SINGH being scalped alive )......dad would discuss daily these...how the SINGHANNIAH in Mir Manuus prison had parts of their babies put around their necks..how the babies were slaughtered by being thrown into the air and speared alive...How the 5 year old Sahibzadah Fateh Singh and the 7 year old Zorawar Singh were standing TALL in the wall being bricked up alive and refusing to convert...etc etc etc..and how the elder brothers Ajit Singh and Jhujaar Singh fought agaisnt the mughals armies...just 13 and 15 years old youngsters...not even asking for water !!! the sight of Guru teg bahadur Jis HEAD beign shown to the 9 year old CHILD..Gobind Rai..and Gobind rai hugging the bearer of it to his chest and saying Ranghreteh GURU KE BETTEH..... ARDASS and our HISTORY came ALIVE !!! DAILY.

Oh YES i have heard some of my students saying that......Zorawar Singh should have "pretended to convert...to save his life..and THEN when older...change back to Sikhi,,,and FIGHT the Mughals !!!! No wonder so many "sikhs" are converting...not knowing anything about SIKHI/History/ardass.... we wait for them to "grow up"....and by then its TOO LATE...they are not interested any more !!! AM I a "fanatic".."cruel and shocking"..NO i dont think so...to me the DAILY ARDASS is as GRAPHIC as can be....the words tell a Story of FACT..and we must live with it....or "pretend" it just empty "words"...to be said by the GRANTHI..while we day dream about the fantastic langgar awaiting us downstairs.....eat and be Merry....and hope the Granthi finishes with the ...boring ardass fast.... Lots of people have "problems" with the pictures of the MODERN SHAHEEDS of 1984 and after....hanging on Gurdwara Walls..being paraded in Nagar kirtans.... to many even the GRAPHIC ARDASS is shocking/repulsive/cruel/...maybe we should CENSOR the wordings..and REMOVE all references to charkhhrraian te cherreh, band band kataeh..khoprian utarian..jiondeh sarreh gayeh....that sounds repulsive/shocking ??...NO JI..I dont subscribe to "shutting out...or burying my head in Liberal Sands....or keeping the "youngsters" shielded from our HISTORY/our TRADITIONS...
