[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 187370, member: 35"] One has to note first of all that 3HO and Sikh Dharma (in its avatars as International, or Worldwide, or just Sikh Dharma) are 2 different entities within the movement begun by Yogi Bhajan. Their articles of incorporation are separate. 3HO is considered primarily an educational organization, under which Kundalini yoga is featured in many forms. One not need be a Sikh to be a student or teacher of yoga within 3HO. Sikh Dharma (whether known as Sikh Dharma International or Sikh Dharma Worldwide) represents the spiritual/religious entity. In 2012, Sikh Dharma International and Sikh Dharma Worldwide resolved ongoing legal disputes and became one organization. The two organizations now hail under the one banner of Sikh Dharma Worldwide and are located at this one web address [url]http://sikhdharma.org[/url] The vision and mission of the previous Sikh Dharma Worldwide, prior to November 2012, was as follows Sikh Dharma International does not at this time publish its vision and mission statements at its web site, as far as I could tell. After the two organizations became one, Sikh Dharma International announced that various pages of the Sikh Dharma Worldwide would merge with sikhdharma.org and various other Sikh Dharma International sites. The merger was a business decision, rising from litigation in court not a decision based on religious beliefs. Now what about the connection between Sikh dharma and Kundalini yogi? Searching the term "Sikh dharma and yoga" one navigates to this page [url]http://www.sikhdharma.org/search/node/Sikh%20dharma%20and%20yoga?page=3[/url] No explicit connection is made between Sikhism and Yoga by Sikh Dharma International. Nonethelss, before the corporate merger into 1 entity, Sikh Dharma Worldwide made the connection very explicitly on this page: [url]http://sikhdharmaworldwide.org/about/yoga-and-sikh-dharma[/url] Analyze the content of the page and you may agree with me that the place of yoga within Sikhi is described in a very contradictory way. In some paragraphs yoga is described as a "fruitless" way to God. In other paragraphs yoga is described as a way to nurture a union with God. Various shabads in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji may have been interpreted in a self-serving way. Also presented is the idea that Guru Gobind Singh was an incarnation of a yogi whose plea to escape reincarnation through penitence was ignored because his destiny was to become 10th Nanak. I could not see that the page, Sikh dharma and yoga, had been merged with any of the SDI pages, at the Sikh Dharma International Site. Does that signal a clean break with the traditions preached by Yogi Bhajan? l hesitate to come to closure on that question. One can see from the Glossary associated with the site that many concepts from yoga and vedic traditions are part of their dharmic discourse. [url]http://www.sikhdharma.org/pages/glossary[/url] The web page, Sikh dharma and yoga, has value quite apart from its standing with the new parent company. All the arguments used to promote yoga within a Sikh framework are included there. This sets up a situation where rebuttals are just straightforward and simple. And like one of our other active threads on the wives of Guru Gobind Singh, the presence of starkly contradictory information on the Internet, in seemingly authoritative places, can only create confusion.
