well here goes....;)....my first ever post! I am attracted to discussions about reincarnation as I have been a believer since age 12. My view on reincarnation is simple, when we return to Earth or where ever(!!!)we return as for us, humans, we remain human although we may alternate genders; animals the same - dogs return as dogs as do cats etc etc. These are just my beliefs! I also believe in Karma.

well folks there it is!!!

I would like to add that I am a white English man nearing 50 who has been drawn to Sikhism. I look forward to my time here!!!

Namaste:):happy:

Nice post.

One difference I have gathered in Sikhism is, that whereas Hinduism sees a hierarchy of Life Human>Animal>Plant>Mineral

Sikhism states Human Life at the top and all other forms of life below this with an equal standing. A rock, plant, and animal all at the same level. Which makes sense, as only in the last century we are realising how important and valuable resources like plant and mineral are to our existence.

Although the Indian constituion classifies sikhs as Hindu's, we have never been hindu and this has been demonstrated clearly even in the Kenyan constitution which recognises Sikhs as different from Hindus especially in the marriage ceremony, culture, Affiliations. So this is why Sikhs should demand recognition world over.
kenya? so you will believe and follow black monkeys. Read the guru granth sahib. Everything in it is already discussed in 1000s of years old Vedas, upnishads, bhakti path, shiv puranas and krishna's srimad bhagwat.

caste system where it is thought of was BAD is a RECENT social construct. None of the hindu religious books talk about it. There is no caste mentioned in vedas, upnishads or shiv purana, etc. Gita says kshtrias should do their duty and figth evil but it doesn't say anything bad about other castes. Khalistanis are in reality muslims and so contaminating Sikhs.
