lol thats true, no one has been enlightened by being a sikh, and yet so many have by being them selves. Sikhism is not an act, and is not really a religion. Where did everything come from at the start, guru nanak dev ji, sat there meditated inner self, and bang found that everything is god. Why are we trying to show that we are sikhs kaur ji? Thats what i dont get, with all respect, you always talk about us that we should be sikh, thats showing ego-ism, that means you hate life, you think sikhism is always right. Because your a sikh doesnt mean you are always right. Infact, i dont even think there is such thing as Sikhism in this life, because people treat it as an act or an organisation. Has anyone been enlightened so far? Tell me...
I think the Sikh Gurus were aware of the truth, and people just taken it the wrong way. Sikh gurus were pure concious, thats all in life there is to be learnt, to have pure concious, that means respect everything, religion comes and goes! And yes kaur sister, you are being ignorant. The Sikh gurus were truth and bliss from god. They were one with god, they didnt have to create a religion, Guru nanak didnt even have to create a religion, but guru ji created a religion because there was a time and place for it, it was needed. Religion was what god wanted at that time to settle the differences between muslims and hindus. Guru Nanak dev ji even knew of it, that religion is not needed, but guruji had to because his enlightened experience with god told guru ji to come up with a religion. And Guru Gobind singh ji came up with what the people of india needed to keep them going as the guru knew that these people will never understand pure concious, so they had to carry on the religion. Right now, i think there are so many sikhs, trying to get enlightened, because theres nothing else for them that makes them happy. They get bored, so they decide to make something their everything. Just be yourself in life, be as pure as you can. Dont stick to one thing, otherwise you dont learn in life. Be yourself!!
And what are you talking about! You get too excited, just cos some old people say to you you shouldnt listen to saints and yogis etc you say they are wrong. To many people been telling you too much not to do this, not to do that. They dont knw themselves what they are on about, they dont think before they actually say anything. We dont copy yogis etc, we get ideas from them, right now, do you even feel comfortable of what you are doing kaur ji Tell me? Your saying so much things against other things and just because you follow sikhism you say you are right? WOW! Thats what you call sticking to one thing and not growing!!
Dont think people understand the guru granth sahib ji properly! Sometimes when you are i total bliss you may exagerate things! Just to make people comfortable, because people ask to much and get to many answers
People have religions just to make a character up forthemselves, they are scared that if they just bee themselves life will be hard... thats the problem, its all about showing what you are to people rather then being truthful. Im not saying religion is wrong, im just saying if that is helping you to be who you really are, then carry on, its good, otherwise, if your going to be ignorant about other things, then you are not being truthful and its so obvious your wrong!
Kaur Ji, sister you show to much formalities like all other ignorant people do!
Remember, There Is N Wrong Everything Is Right, As Everything Is God!
The thing is, if to choose a religion, it would be sikhism. Sometimes when you be yourself, there may be problems and you could get lost, therefore religions can help people. But whatever it is, life is god exploring itself. Everything is god, god is the only thing that exists, whatever it is, its god!.
So kaur ji is not wrong and we all have our own way to find god, but dont be against others and try to understand.
