Dear Sir.

S.S.Akal Ji.

To your comments I just have to mention that you are 100% right. That is what SHRI GURU NANAk DEV JI enshrined in sikh faith that we are all one and come from one light.

BUT what to tell the society at large when our own Jatherdar or Leaders all invovled in preaching the sikh value having their own family names attached
according to their cast after singh.That identify the cast where one has come from and creat a divisions.

Some places you witness a clear divisions among even Gurudwars congragations.
One is Khalsa brothers and other ,for Jats other mix. That is why this hypocracy did not let us adnvance this modern and teachings philosphy spread in the rest of world like Christinity or Islam.We must practice what we preach.

If you ask a random Sikh fellow what is the differnce between you and Hindus. You will listen to the reply that `` we don`t believe in Cast System.``

Your eye brows goes up!.

What a hypocratic expression. There is a seed we have been sowing to ruin our beliefs iamages and teachings of our Gurus. What we say we are not even close to even touchings the real teachings.We get devided from the roots. when the child is born. First thing we gave the name to new born diifernt than the SINGH .Name will come from jat (CAST) according to childs family .

Yes we are deadly against our basic principals and boasting our seleves by our family names other than singh .it was intended by SHRI GURU GOBIND SINGH JI.All to be call as SINGH to be all bothers.

The purpose was to creat a brotherhood with one family name SINGH.

Hope some individuals in management circle wake up and start preaching the real face of sikh philospy which is different than the cast belivers Hindus or others.

Jaspi

Welcome all.

Dear Jaspi and aadoo2 ji,

Thank you for your warm welcome.

Your wishes and advice is very dear to me and will keep it in mind. Have been very preoccupied, but will certainly spend more time here on the forums.

Welcome to Sikh philosophy web site. The grain of knowing or seeking others to explore the truth has been grown in your heart right from the birth.But time is coming when the grain is opening up with desire to do something practical for what you are on this earth.Like you mentioned that you have not contributed any thing . No, the biggest contribution is made when you realize of doing something.
Let Sat Guru Ji show you the way to be in his NAM all the time and spread goodness aground you where ever you go.

Sikhism is very practical and guided by Guru Nanak Dev ji 's teachings with added Gurbani from nine GURUS. You must feel proud of such a religion which always seek SARBAT KA BHALLA.

We have no ritual to follow but the truth is the only truth and lead a simple, humble life.The most impotants teaching of Gurus about ritual,cast system ,lost of love among fellow sikhs,selfishness ,all is over shadowing the real teaching to be spread in the world.That is why sikh relegion could not make all the world aware how wonderful is the messages to the world where all human being are one and there is only one GOd for all human being no matter what lable one is carrying arround..

Sikh do not need a mediators to pray Onkar.

Wonderful.

Hello,
I am a 37 year old white female that lives in Canada. My life has never had any real religious direction. I met a Sikh man and love his approach to both his spiritual life and temporal life. I have started reading about the Sikh Guru's and have become genuinely interested in learning more about Sikhism. I am hoping this sit will provide me with guidance in my spiritual quest. I thank your Guru's for teaching you such profound lessons. Real world lessons even for today's age. I also, thank you for welcoming even the non-Sikh in participating in your site.
