Guest Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 I was reading Khushwant Singh's "A History of The Sikhs", Volume II, and I came across this poem, which was published by the Punjabi newspaper of the Arya Samaj, the Arya Samachar (Warning! Sikhism Insulting content below): 60kLfhBB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paapiman Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Arya Samaj insulted Sikhism and Islam. This organization also caused friction among Hindus and Sikhs in Punjab. Bhul chuk maaf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But It's quite ironic how early Hindu organizations rejected Sikhism, while a bit modern ones (no need to mention names) not only consider Sikhism as a sect of Hinduism, but also don't refrain from celebrating Nanak and Gobind Singh "Jayantis", the same persons whom their "Swamiji" rejected as "dambhis" and hypocrites... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arya Samaaj does not even call itself Hindu and is not a mainstream Hindu organization ..the members do not go to Hindu Mandirs they have their own and do not do idol worship . It is not just the Sikhs they have targeted , they are against anyone and everyone who does not fall in their line . There was a time when they and Singh Sabha were on good terms and brought back forcibly converted Muslims. Then things changed, i interacted with them to understand their mindset ..i don't get along with them . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BhagatSingh Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Haha! If you ignore the insulting tone of it, it's a pretty accurate poem and it's hilarious. Thanks for the laugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh, Hinduism is, as Basics of Sikhi's Jagraj Singh says, not an religion but a culture. Sikhs and Punjabi Muslims have been victims of it. It's not only that it's a giant, but that each and every sect has it's own differences so you can't actually figure out what is standard. I know Hindus who will glorify Dayanand, worship idols and go to a Gurdwara... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I can find about 90% of all orthodox Sikhs who won't agree with you, even if we ignore the insulting tone or not. (Just like the Charlie Hebdo froggies who painted a funny caricature of Mohammed in one of their editions and provoked an ISIS attack) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people lack the clarity to find the humour in things. They'd rather disagree with everything and be upset with a frown face. What's wrong? "He said this and he said that" This is life. It is what it is. "Whatever it is, I hate it!" Learn to see the humour in things. "But it's not funny! How can he say things this?! How dare he?!" Ok but it's time to eat. you should eat something "NO I DON't WANA EAT! I am not hungry and I won't eat until he stops saying those things!" -_- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
