[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 148144, member: 14641"] Im sorry to muddy the waters here, but what is the point of any article showing what a real anand karaj ceremony is like, when I do not recall ever, ever going to one. A real Anand Karaj Ceremony, full of people happy to be celebrating the union of two young people blessed by god, with no alcohol or vulgar displays of wealth, now that would be something. There is NOTHING anyone of us can do about this. I am a drinker and a mona, and I feel as strong as anyone does about this. The problem is as soon as you involve human beings into the equation, everything gets tarnished and is dirty. This problem will not get better, it will get worse until in a 1000 years no one will recognise sikhism as it should have been. What can we do about it? concentrate on your own relationship with the creator, for every second spent looking at other people is a second wasted. You could use that second to focus on your own perfection as the Guru intended. These people are not sikhs. They may look like sikhs, but they have exchanged the five thieves for the Guru, I say, let them get on with it. It does not make them bad people, or evil people, just human beings with all the weaknesses that go with it. What I would say though is that the search for the creator is the biggest hunt you will ever go on. You need a clear head, free of intoxicants, free of lust, free of all the five thieves before you even start on the hunt, a man ready to go hunting for god is a gursikh, having made all the correct preparations, and arming himself with love and humility, off he goes. The three good men who contributed before me, yes, they appear to me to have a gursikh mentality and I respect them much for that, but the world is not made up of gursikhs, it is made up of sikhs who do not even realise what the meaning of life is. To me, it is to bond with the creator in the eternal nightclub of bliss. Unfortunately the dress code for this club is spiritual as well as physical, but I know this club exists, and one day I intend to qualify for entry. I am afraid that most of our sikh brothers know not of this club, but are content to satisfy themselves with the pointless activities as outlined by Gyaniji. A sikh who is not a gursikh, and has little or no interest in becoming a gursikh should cease the pointless tamasha of sikhism.Go get a haircut, change your name, so that these ceremonies and weddings become non sikh ceremonies that cannot tarnish the goodness of sikhi, if you have no real interest in respecting the creator, try not to look like you do by wearing a crown that does not belong to you [/QUOTE]
