[QUOTE="Randip Singh, post: 87370, member: 1323"] [b]Re: U.S Presidential Race[/b] Too many long words :p My brain is overloading. Ok lets break it down and look at Sikh institutions. There is [B]Miri[/B] and [B]Piri[/B]. Spiritual and Temporal. The two are interlinked and intertwinned, so in this respect what happens here and now (and this does include politics) is interlinked with our spiritual well being according to Sikhism. This is very different from other faiths that claim some sort of otherwordly liveberation. What Sikhi says says what we do here and now will affect us here and now. We can in effect create a heaven or hell around us and within us. Let us analyse the 5 thieves that create this Hell: [B]Kaam[/B] - Lust - right wingers claim to be on the higher moral ground by promoting marriage etc, yet they are massive hypocrits. The amount of Tory ministers that have had illict affaires in the UK is unbelievable. [B]Krodh[/B] - Stubborness - the inability for people with a right wing dogma to understand the needs of those that are disadvantaged and extend need or help to them. Take what happened in New Orleans. [B]Moh[/B] - Materialism - I don't need to say anything about this but this forms the cornerstone of Right wing philosophy. [B]Lobh[/B] - Greed or wanting more than your fair share. Again a cornerstone of Right wing Capattalism. [B]Hankaar[/B] - Egotism - thinking you are better than others whether, materialy, physically or mentally. Right wingers tendancy to be from rich families, the best education and usually have had the priveledges that have given them a head start. They believe they are actually better than their fellow man. What is liberal? I mean my views are Liberal but I am very conservative with a small "c" when it comes to family values. I believe we should help our fellow man. We should have a welfare state, and also access to free health, education and housing BUT only if their is a genuine need i.e. extended to people who genuinely need it and are trying for themselves. I am conservativein that I belive children should be born within wedlock, yet I am liberal because I don't believe that gay people can get married, and I do believe that Gay married people should be allowed to have children. I don't like promiscuos people, I despise celebrity culture as most are irresponsible, yet I love movies and the razza matazz that surrounds it. In this respect I believe in the Sikh Philosophy that you can be surrounded by all these things yet not necessarily be part of it. Lets analyse institutions: [B]Langaar[/B] - every sits equally and eats [B]Van Chakko[/B]- work ethic and work for the common good [B]Daswaand[/B] - Giving a tenth of your earnings to the poor [B]Guru Nanak[/B] - his farm he set up and the Langaar was in effect a "collective", a very left wing ideal in that everyone worked there for mutual benefit, the food used was for langaar and earnings used to help the needy. [B]Guru Gobind[/B] - bowing to his sangat shows the notion of total equality. [B]Guru Granth and Guru Paanth[/B] - Our Guru's rule is entrusted in the collective i.e. the Sikh people in general. [B]Amrit Ceremony[/B] - all drinking from same bowls shows we are one and the same equal. [B]Sewa[/B] - working to help others and the benfit of others. There are many many more Sikh concepts that are very left wing, but what marks Sikh philosophy apart from any left wing dogma is the emphasis on individual responsibility. [/QUOTE]
