[QUOTE="SIKS SINGH, post: 155868, member: 16657"] I am a sikh - non amritdari - but wish to progress to the taking of the divine Nectar Before I proceed I have some issues as I am lost and confused : I have family members (who are AKJ followers) I do not wish to follow their way of life for the following reasons: The AKJ as well as the Nihangs have separated the religion, they do not practice what they preach with their family members, they will shun them if they disagree with their way of life, which is controversial and does not follow the whole of the teaching of the GGS, they have a different Reahat and they follow the teachings (progression of the sikh scriptures) under the following of bhai Rhandir Singh 1878 -1961. I have personal experience of this as my brother is a AKJ, his wife wears a turban his kids have all been enforced into this way of preaching, beliveing and practising the Sikh religion under the guidance from Bhai Rhandir singh, they do not care for there mother or the family members who do not belong to thier group, they will not eat at other peoples homes and they try and convert, everyone who they come across. I have also experienced by direct contact with them, that they may have the GGS at home, but lie and do things which are contrary to the Guru Granth teachings, they have been materialistic, yet dissolve this egotism in sarcasm and by calling those who question them of being impure and imperfect. KARME APOU APNE KHE NEERAI KHE DHOOR - but they do not care about others feelings, when I have served in gurdwaras, they will not allow non practising AKJ to serve or do seva, they have separate Gurdwaras most often called "singh sabha" THEY ARE A SECT, LIKE THE NIHANGS - GOD OUR LOVE - IS THE UNIVERSAL CREATOR, THE GGS HAS GIVEN US THE WAY, but the AKJ are lost in their way to show the practice of religion and the wearing of clothes which conform to their way as detailed by thier founder Bhai Rhandir Singh, they have a different Rehat - they do - practice a different form of Sikhism, distinct from the true words of the GSS - have you ever seen a rehnsbhai Kertan in practice in the Harimandir Sahib - NO. I am also concerned that this group is blind to the reality of "GOD RESIDES IN ALL" so why have a sect which is distinct with a disctinct way of preaching and living - they and their belief is that only they are the true followers of SIKHISM - HOW WRONG THEY ARE - for god does not demand rituals or practices, GURU NANAK our Founder of Original sikhism, was follwed by Bala and Mardana, who were Muslim and Hindu, they did not practice caste or ritual separation, but the love of god, our Universal Creator in oneness. The sikhs such as the Nihangs also cause me concern THE TILAK - what the hell is going on here, why is a sacrifice being accepted in Sr Hazoor Sahib, with the blood from the goat then being taken into the Darbar Sahib and used to anoint the weapons around the GSS, and also taken to the GSS (look on you tube - before you start abusing me) - the Nihangs then take this and prepare and eat the meat and drink Bhaang, they have a different rehat too, very similar to AKJ but allowing them to eat non halal meat? So again this is a sect of Sikhism which is distinct from the teachings of Guru Nanak and the other Gurus. My concern also finds no resolution in the sikh temples, for instance why have we 2, 3 or 4 Sikh temples in some cities which all confirm to one or the other sect, we also have ravidaasi Gurdwaras, all this is the doing of the SIKHS such as Bhai Rhandir Singh, who has been followed by the AKJ, there beliefs are changing Sikhism - for the worse as the Truth of GOD IS BEING renewed into a caste system which creates a new form of Sikhism, from the TRUTH. We have no origin, as Sikhs, we could have been Muslim or Hindu, but Sikhism of the time gave everyone a equal undertaking that the Universal creator is attainable and resides in all, but the truth has been forgotton, call them the 10 commandments, the Rehats, the Bible, the Koran or the Vedas, all of which are important to the way to god, and enlightenment. I AM A LOST SOUL, I LOVE YOU ALL, BUT I PRAY TO MY LORD THE UNIVERSAL CREATOR THAT THE ORIGINAL MESSAGE HE HAS GIVEN, IS INSTILLED IN MY HEART AND THAT OF HIS TRUE TEACHINGS. I respect your wishes but respect those of the GSS in its entirety and fall upon the sword of love, for the sake of all of humanity do as you would to others as you would expect of them to do to you, WHAT WE SOW - IS WHAT WE SHALL REAP, both in this world and in the next - time is little so pray your guidance is true and the path genuine. My concern is that they (AKJ AND THE OTHER CASTES) have interpreted the HOLY GGS and transmitted a new method of teaching this, to the SIK Community, they have Rehansbhai (all night vigils), they also associate and congregate with only there own sect, and will only look to marry into that group EK ONKAR - ONE UNIVERSAL GOD [/QUOTE]
