I tend to drop things I am struggling with, I am not an arrogant person, but I would rather find my own way with the help of friends and associates, than put my trust in some babaji.
There are many Sikhs that do not believe in such, there are some good threads on the subject here on this forum, I will find the links and paste them here for you
Please do, it will stretch both of our mental thinking
Buddhism is about finding enlightenment, Sikhism is just about living, in the real world, with real problems,
The aim of Sikhism is to find heaven on earth during your lifespan, by being connected to the universe, and by being a slave to creation, with no carrot, with no stick, and with no thought of reward.It is about an attitude, a way of thinking. Heaven sitting next to beardie does not come into it.
I guess the aim of most religion is to control, Sikhi's aim is to liberate, to help you wash away the false filters that you see life through, till you see the truth.
The idea is that a couple should be ready for Anand Karaj, rather than see it as 'something before the booze'
well, if someone were to call me religious, I would probably be quite offended, I know religious people, they mumble a lot, and take part in weird ceremonies, and then mumble a bit more, maybe with candles, they tackle problems in life with more mumbling, or sometimes they pay people to mumble for them, I am not a religious person.
Oh yeah Kalyug, the dark time, well this is certainly a dark time, yes, very dark, the sun is shinning, I have a full belly, I had a stent fitted to my heart a few weeks ago, has worked wonders, I have heating in my house!
Just to remind you that back in the days before Kalyug, Muslim soldiers were marching down streets with Sikh heads on spears, I wonder what they called that time.............
As for most people being spiritually ignorant, with the advent of the internet, I would have said the opposite.
