[QUOTE="dalbirk, post: 114880, member: 6456"] Seeker 3k ji , I appreciate your concern but if Sikhism had been a voilent religion then Sikhs would not have suffered like they did in 1984 . Their greatest folly was that they did not heed to Guru Gobind Singh Ji's baana & did not keep weapons in their homes . Wherever Sikhs faced the hooligans with arms they survived , wherever they did not face the hooligans due to lack of weapons or under the impression of POLICE ASSURANCES , they were killed . I'm reminded of one article in which it was mentioned that almost 80 million Hindus were killed ,10 miilion women , girls & boys taken to Bazzars of Kabul , Ghazni ,Kandhahar , Baghdaad for sale for as low as Two Dinaars ( 25 paise that time ) those who did not sell by evening were sometimes murdered to avoid feeding them as there was oversupply in 750 years of Muslim rule . Why were they killed by almost less than 1% of Muslims . I also learnt that Muhammed Bin Qasim came with 500 men , most of them Gujjars ( shepherds ) by profession who came in search of FODDER for cattle 712 AD , killed 150,000 men women , took away thousands of young girls , women & even queens of king Dahir Walia ( Sindh ) , loads of treasure including gold , diamonds & priceless jewels as WAR BOOTY . You maybe right in your assesment that Sikhs need to give up sword but not everybody agrees with your observation moreover it is a compulsory Baana prescribed by Guru Ji we cannot do away with it . It is alongwith our HAIR a major factor of our UNIQUENESS , we cannot survive without it . I like to quote following observation of Keay , John in his book ' INDIA : A History ' " Buddhism originated India in 5th century BC & greatly influenced Indian culture . It declined ironically because of its widespread acceptence by Hindus . " The hate which you feel among Indians or even Westerns ( if any ) for Sikhs is partly due to propaganda by Indian Govt .
