[QUOTE="Tejwant Singh, post: 132643, member: 138"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Findingtheway ji, Guru Fateh. I can not add anything more to what Narayanjot ji has already mentioned. You have done a fantastic job because most of the literal translations of Sri Guru Granth Sahib are quite misleading. This has been my drum beat in many of my posts since I joined this wonderful forum in 2004. The literal translation does not do any justice to this beautiful poetry. This is the reason I urge all to express the Shabads in their own words and share what kind of message they get from the Shabad. You have done justice to the Shabad, The reason of my saying is in what you have expressed in English and what Ik Jivan ji has copied and pasted without giving a second thought if the literal translation matches what the Gurbani is talking about. Many people claim the Tilak used in the below pangtee as the Hindu ritual of putting Tilak on the forehead which is not the case here. Tilak is not a Sikhi ritual nor its tradition. Tilak exactly means the way you have expressed,"[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][COLOR=DarkOrchid][B]he bowed down before his disciple Lehna and gave him [U]the mark of the gurgaddi[/U]".[/B][/COLOR] In other words, Tilak means here passing the Gurgaddi to Guru Angad, as you have appropriately said. Sahib Singh ji has also explained it in the right way. It is not Tilak Layah (which would mean putting Tilak on the forehead). It is Tilak ditah. Following is what Ik Jivan ji wrote which shows the Hindu ritual of putting the tilak on the forehead and hence is incorrect. Thanks again for your great contribution. Regards Tejwant Singh [/QUOTE]
