[QUOTE="Original, post: 207196, member: 14400"] Good morning Everyone, Let us enjoy our conversations, make it pleasurable, creative and a productive activity that engages our minds and our hearts with people we respect. The father of the Sikh Panth, Guru Gobind Singh demonstrated this when he wrote the Zafarnama and handed it to Bhai Daya Singh to hand deliver to Arungzeb. "Why the letter Guru Ji when it should be the sword ?" Cried the Panth. Guru Ji said, 'the power of the written word [shabd] is mightier than the wielding sword'. What transpired within a very short-span thereafter, is that Arungzeb died following the read of the Zafarnama. Moral being, "truth" prevails "justice" done. Let us be the seekers of truth and not ridicule ourselves with collateral collection. Sikh rule will continue and grow from strength to strength provided we don't fall into the same trap as the Jones next door, meaning, sister faiths, always fault finding and discriminating one another. Sikh is universal, founded upon principles of humanity and not on creed, colour, religion, gender, etc. Respectfully, I engage with the following, thus: ..no, I said it has a beautiful "ring" and not the "finger" wearing it. ...just as the [B]head[/B] cannot be severed from the [B]body[/B] without spilling blood, neither can the [B]spirit[/B] and the [B]letter[/B] of SGGSJ be preserved and interpreted without reference to Hinduism. ..pass ! ..nam simran you call mumbling and a host of others you attest as vile; definitely a master plan for something good n great waiting to happen when the mind fully develops, for why otherwise such a noble task to so simple a creature? ..granted ! No heaven without hell and no gain without pain. I was generalizing, but the fact that you've gone past the Barbican was not an edifying spectacle because its drawn out of context. ..see above, no pain no gain. Just as the knife was favoured by evolution to the point of invention despite its inherent dangers, so too were the struggles optimised by evolution for the perfect race to evolve, meaning you bro. ...Sikhism is "truth", who am I to turn anything around, I'm useless against the Will of the Almighty. ...I'm only the messenger and whatever I've said to Chaz ref shabd on page 819 SGGSJ was incidental and not actual. Guru Arjun Dev Ji capitalized on an essential element to hammer home a message and that message was, "Chaz don't worry, you're my son and I'm with you". I'm sure your parents must have at some stage in your life gave you that kind of assurance , no ? But yes, baba and the rest I'm with you. Hit'em where it hurts, meaning, stay away. Its been a pleasure - take care ! Its time for my lunch. God bless you ! [/QUOTE]
