Its ok if your delusion is increasing, again Ambedkar differentiated between Vedic thought and Gurmat. But of course because he was a dalit, you would probably say he had a grudge against Hindu Dharma and so vilified it. But..... it's ok, like Swami Prabhupada says; cow urine is a benefactory cure to a Hindu's tensions.

No, no they stick to assertions made after a long dose of cow urine as prescribed by Vedic homoeopathy. I never denied any part on Ambedkar's anti-Sikh feelings but like I said he got to the bottom of the problem which commenced from Vedic despotism itself.

Don't worry they will ensure advanced commercialism via the global sale of cowpiss.

Or maybe you had better take a plunge head first into your own spiritual canon rather than constructing a universe parallel to Final Fantasy. There is more reason to trust imminent men like Dr. Ambedkar who suffered at the hands of Vedic despotism, and fought to annihilate it, than so-called apologists.

What else does he really have to live on?

The fact that you get my name wrong and stick to pro-nationalist sources indicates an ardent inferiority complex present in your psychological verbatim. Your post regarding the Guru's caste is efficiently answered by the fact that it is your perception that they practised caste by ensuring what you define as a stratified hegemony. Yet again they were willing to encapsulate the works of many so called low caste individuals and amalgamate it with their own. We can clearly see the conclusive say on caste, when Guru Gobind Singh Ji himself declared that the prior alienations of varna had been reduced by the manifestation of the Khalsa, which mixed all castes together irrespective of karma, status and and any esoteric state. The pure Panth, the Khalsa has came into being, that glorious Panth with four castes. (Sri Sarbloh Granth, pg. 496). Again if you were to read the Gita by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, you would see that Krishna himself emphasized upon a hierarchical division where the Shudra was purported to be an intelligently inferior man to his superiors; due to his karma. The Vedas classified every one into four castes. Ambedkar explained this thus; According to the Brahmins, the Vedas have defined what is an ideal society and the Vedas being infallible, that is the only ideal society which man can accept. The ideal society prescribed by the Vedas is known by the name Chaturvarna. Such a society, according to the Vedas, must satisfy three conditions. It must be composed of four classes, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shudras. The interrelations of these classes must be regulated by the principle of graded inequality. In other words, all these classes are not to be on equal level but to be one above the other, in point of status, rights and privileges. The Brahmins were placed at the top; the Kshatriyas were placed below the Brahmins but above the Vaishyas; the Vaishyas were placed below the Kshatriyas but above the Shudras and the Shudras were placed the lowest of all The third feature of Chaturvarna was that each class must engage itself in an occupation assigned to it. The Brahmins' occupation was to learn, teach and officiate at religious ceremonies. The Kshatriyas' occupation was to bear arms and to fight. The occupation of the Vaishyas was trade and business. The Shudras' occupation was to do menial service for all the three superior classes. No class is to transgress and trench upon the occupation of the other classes. At this stage Shudras still enjoyed some rights. The right to collect food from villagers, the right to collect corn from each villager at the harvest seasons and the right to appropriate the dead animals belonging to the villagers. The Buddha’s Challenge to Caste This period of Shudras came to a serious crisis, when Buddha began to reject the entire doctrine of the Veda’s and preached equality as against caste. It is one of the great events of human history when the people of most parts of India were converted to the preaching of Buddha, in his own lifetime. Later his teaching spread to most other neighbouring countries. Ambedkar gives the following as a summary of Buddha’s teachings on caste: "The Buddha opposed it root and branch. He was strongest opponent of caste and the earliest and staunchest upholder of equality. There is no argument in favour of caste and inequality which he did not refute. There were many Brahmins who challenged Buddha on this issue. But he silenced them completely. The story is told in the Assalayana-Sutta that once the Brahmins persuaded one of them, by name Assalayana, to go to the Buddha and controvert his views against caste and inequality. Assalayana went to the Buddha and placed before him the case in favour of the superiority of the Brahmins. He said, "Brahmins maintain, Gautama, that only Brahmins form the superior class, all other classes being inferior; that only Brahmins form the white class, all other classes being black fellows; that purity resides in Brahmins alone and not in non Brahmins; and that only Brahmins are Brahma's legitimate sons, born from his mouth, offspring of his, creations of his, and his heirs. What does Gautama say hereon?" The Buddha's answer simply pulverised Assalayana. The Buddha said: "Assalayana, are not the Brahmin wives of Brahmins known to have their periods, and to conceive, and to lie and give birth? Notwithstanding this do Brahmins really maintain all what you have said though they are themselves born of women like everybody else?" Assalayan gave no answer. The Buddha went further and asked Assalayana another question. "Suppose, Assalayana, a young noble consorts with a Brahmin maiden, what would be the issue? Will it be an animal or human being?" Again Assalayana gave no answer. "As to the possibility of moral development, is it only a Brahmin and not a man of the other three classes, who in this country, can develop in his heart the love that knows no hate or ill-will?" "No. All four classes can do it," replied Assalayana. "Assalayana! Have you ever heard," asked the Buddha, "that in the Yona and Kamboja countries and in other adjacent countries, there are only two classes, namely, masters and slaves, and that a master can become a slave and vice versa?" "Yes, I have heard so," replied Assalayana. "If your Chaturvarna is an ideal society, why is it not universal?" On none of these points was Assalayana able to defend his theory of caste and inequality. He was completely silenced. He ended by becoming a disciple of the Buddha. A Brahmin by name Vasettha had embraced the religion of the Blessed Lord. The Brahmins used to abuse him for his conversion. One day he went to Buddha and disclosed to him what the Brahmins said of him. Then Vasettha said: "The Brahmins, Lord, say thus: 'Only a Brahmin is of the best social grade; other grades are low. Only a Brahmin is of a clear complexion; other complexions are swarthy. Only Brahmins are of pure breed; not they that are not of the Brahmins. Only Brahmins are genuine children of Brahma, born of his mouth, offspring of Brahma, created by Brahma, heirs of Brahma. As for you, you have renounced the best rank and have gone over to that low class, to the shaven recluses, to vulgar rich, to them of swarthy skins, to the foot-born descendants. Such a course is not good, such a course is not proper, even this, that you, having forsaken that upper class, should associate with an inferior class, to wit, with shaveling, fair folks, menials, swarthy of skin, the offspring of our kinsmen's heels. In these terms, Lord, do the Brahmins blame and revile me with characteristic abuse, copious, not at all stinted." "Surely, Vasettha," said the Buddha, "the Brahmins have quite forgotten the ancient lore when they say so. On the contrary, the wives of Brahmins, like all women of other classes, are seen to be with child, bringing forth and nursing children. And yet it is these very womb-born Brahmins who say that Brahmins are genuine children of Brahma, born from his mouth; his offspring; his creation; and his heirs! By this they make a travesty of the nature of Brahma." Once the Brahmin Esukari went to the Buddha to argue with him three questions. The first question he raised related to the permanent division of occupations. In defense of the system he began by saying: "I have come to ask you a question. The Brahmins say they shall serve nobody because they stand above all. Everyone else is born to serve them. "Service, Gautama, is divided into four - service of Brahmin, service of noble, service of a middle-class man, or by a peasant; while a peasant may be served only by a peasant, - for who else could?" What does the reverend Gautama say hereon?" The Buddha answered him by asking a question: "Is the whole world in accord with Brahmins in their fourfold division of service?" asked the Lord. "For myself, I neither assert that all service is to be rendered nor that all service is to be refused. If the service makes a man bad and not good, it should not be rendered; but if it makes him better and not bad, then it should be rendered. This is the guiding consideration which should decide the conduct alike of nobles, of Brahmins, of middle-class men and of peasants; each individual should refuse service which makes him bad and should accept only the service which makes him a better man." The next question raised was by Esukari. "Why should ancestry and lineage not have a place in determining the status of a man?" To this question the Buddha replied thus: "As against pride of ancestry, the station into which a man happens to be born determines only his designation be it noble or Brahmin or middle-class or peasant. Even as a fire is called after the material out of which it is kindled, and may thus be called either a wood-fire, or a chip-fire, or a bracken-fire, or a cow dung fire, just in the same way the noble, transcendent doctrine, I aver, is the source of true wealth for every man, birth merely determining his designation in one of the four classes. Lineage does not enter into a man's being either good or bad: nor do good looks or wealth. For, you will find a man of noble birth who is a murderer, a thief, a fornicator, a liar, a slanderer, a man of bitter tongue, a tattler, a covetous person, a man of rancour or of wrong views, and therefore I assert that noble birth does not make a good man. Or again you will find a man of noble birth who is innocent of all these vices; and, therefore, I assert that it is not lineage which makes a man bad." The third question which Esukari raised was with regard to the ways of earning a living assigned to each class. The Brahmin Esukari said to the Lord: "Brahmins give a fourfold assignment of income, from alms, for Brahmins; from his bow and arrows, for the noble; from ploughing and tending cattle, for the middle-class man; and for the peasant, by the carriage of crops on the pole slung over his shoulder. If anyone of these deserts his vocation for something else, he does what he should not do, not less than a guardian who appropriates what is not his. What does the reverend Gautama say on this?" "Is the whole world in accord with this Brahmin classification?" asked the Lord. "No," replied Esukari. To Vasettha he said: "What is important is high ideals and not noble birth. "No caste; no inequality; no superiority; no inferiority; all are equal. This is what he stood for. "Identify yourself with others. As they, so I. As I, so they," so said the Buddha." - 'The Untouchables,' B.R. Ambedkar. Now of course you can argue that Sikhs did not let Ambedkar enter their faith due to caste, but the doctor was a man who got to the root of the problem.

Now as far as the above article is concerned, they give up their fascist standards, we come down from our horse. Period.

Due to the propaganda and hate campaigns carried out by the Indian media with Hindu backing, the Khalistan movement has been invariably presented in a negative manner to the general public of India and the rest of the world. The Indian agitprop against the Khalistan movement reached such heights that it essentially equates the movement with terrorism and fascism. However, the facts of the matter speak differently, and as we shall analyze, evince that it is the Hindus themselves who are the true proponents of fascism. Rather than looking at the historical and political facts, the vast majority of Indian Hindus are impoliticly indoctrinated by their crooning government and fail to notice the gross human rights violations in Punjab and the suppression of the Sikhs. In this article, we present enough evidence to show that fascism is being widely practiced and propagated in certain circles of the Hindu elite. Firstly, it would be beneficial to consider the definition of fascism and then establish whether the definition holds any ties with the Khalistan movement. The Oxford English Dictionary provides two definitions of fascism. The first is: 1) An authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization. The above definition does not apply to Khalistanis since there is no Khalistan government or any social organization within the Sikh nation promoting right-wing ideology. The political system of dictatorship is opposed by the ideals of the Gurus. As advocated by the Sikh Gurus, the nation must be led by not one, but five leaders who are to be selected by the entire Sikh nation. This is democratic in nature. The second definition of fascism is: 2) In extended use: the advocacy of a particular viewpoint or practice in a manner perceived as intolerant or authoritarian. From the very beginning, Sikhs have been a highly accepting and tolerant nation. Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji sacrificed his life for the sake of freedom of religion. He saved Hindus from being persecuted and forcibly converted to Islam. Sikhs, despite being strictly against idol worship, have never destroyed any Hindu temples. During the 18th century when many Hindus turned against the Sikhs, the latter never destroyed any Hindu religious place. Gurbani very eloquently preaches oneness of humanity and Sikhs adhere to these principles. Thus, it is both blasphemous and iniquitous to brand Sikhs as fascists. This labeling can only be attributed to the Hindu Indian government’s deep-set hatred and intolerance towards the Sikhs. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines fascism as follows: a political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.[ii] (bold ours) The Sikh polity does not promote any ideology that fits the above description. On the contrary, Sikh history is testimonial to the fact that the Sikh nation has held no animosity towards any community. During the Misl period and the kingdom of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, non-Sikh subjects were treated on equal terms to Sikhs. Hindus and Muslims were given high ranking positions in government without any discrimination. Such was not the case in the Mughal Empire nor is it the same in India today. Brahmanism – Hindu Fascism What exactly is Brahmanism? Swami Dharma Theertha defines it as: "Brahmanism is the name used by historians to denote the exploiters and their civilization. It may be defined as a system of socio-religious domination and exploitation of the Hindus based on caste, priestcraft and false philosophy, - caste representing the scheme of domination, priestcraft the means of exploitation, and false philosophy a justification of both caste and priestcraft."[iii] In Brahmanism, Brahman (Hindu) priests are at the top of the order and everyone else is below them. The Brahmans are the rulers and leaders of the Hindu community. There is not a single event in a Hindu’s life that goes unchecked by the Brahmans. According to the caste system, the society is divided into four categories and the Brahmans preside over all of them. In the fourth category, at the bottom of the hierarchy, are the so-called Shudras who are the slave force of the Hindus. These so-called Shudras have no human rights and are considered inferior compared to all others in society. Swami Dharma Theertha notes: "Kings as well as Brahmans were interested in keeping the people weak and submissive for exploitation. The caste system served effectively to divide them into groups and prevent their rising against oppressors. It was the most deadly weapon of imperialistic domination ever invented by the human brain."[iv] Thus, Brahmanism is an exploitation system built upon the caste system that defines the social order of the Hindu society. The system, invented by the Brahmans who currently rule the Indian masses, is against the concept of freedom. Shudras have no right to excel in society, raise their social status, gain education, enter temples or inter-mingle with the upper castes. This leaves no doubt that Brahmanism, commonly known as Hinduism today, is nothing short of fascism in which: (i) a Brahman is the dictator and authoritarian leader; (ii) the caste system is the organized social system that promotes divisions and denies freedom to the majority of the Indian population; and (iii) is extremely intolerant of views opposed to its false beliefs. Unmistakably, it is a system full of discrimination, oppression and subjugation. In words of Swami Dharma Theertha: "In its details the Hindu social order is simply a menace to freedom, unity and peace."[v] Therefore, India is not a democratic country since it is being ruled by those who know not of democracy, but only of dictatorship. Dharma Theertha further elaborates: "Freedom with caste is a mockery."[vi] It is the same caste system that was openly supported and sanctioned by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, the itular “Mahatma”. He states: "It will be a chaos if every day a Brahmin is to be changed into a Shudra and a Shudra is to be changed into a Brahmin. The caste system is a natural order of society. ... I am opposed to all those who are out to destroy the caste system."[vii] The caste system was so grossly ingrained in him that he found the concept of equality abhorrent and alien. According to Gandhi, one’s profession was determined not by skills or qualifications, but by ancestry; through birth and was hereditary. He states: "In accepting the fourfold division I am simply accepting the laws of Nature, taking for granted what is inherent in human nature and the law of heredity. ... [but] it is not possible in one birth entirely to undo the results of our past doings. ... So ugly did he find Western-style competition that he would prohibit anyone who acquired a skill other than his "hereditary" one from earning a living by the new one."[viii] It is bitterly ironic that Hindus continue to label Khalistanis, who wish to establish a state of equality, as fascists, yet praise Gandhi, an advocate of an explicitly fascist caste system, as a “freedom fighter”. It is the same caste system that is being advocated and supported by the current Indian government using the methods of reservation systems. According to this system, the so-called low castes have reserved seats in educational institutions and government grants available only to them. Everyone including the Sikhs who do not adhere to the caste system is required to report their caste name in order to determine whether they qualify for reserved seats or not. In this way, everyone is being forcibly coerced into the caste system. This is not at an attempt to raise a person’s social status, as the Brahman regime claims, but rather an attempt to keep the entire nation within the confines of Hinduism thereby simultaneously safeguarding the caste system. If it were not for this governmental system of social management, the suppressed low castes would leave the shackles of Hinduism behind and adopt other faiths like Sikhism in which they will be granted and assured of equal status in the social system. If this were to occur in reality, it would not only tear the fabric of the Hindu exploitation system apart but it would also increase the numbers of the Sikh minority. To ensure that this does not occur, the austere Brahmin regime employs the reservation system. If the freedom of religion truly existed in India; for the purpose of the reservation systems only Hindus would be required to report their caste name and the separate identity of the Sikhs would be acknowledged. However, religious freedom does not exist in India, and the Sikhs are not officially recognized as a distinct nation and religion. This is another attempt of the fascist Brahmin regime to force the Sikhs back into the fold of Hinduism and compulsorily subvert the Sikhs identity, culture and religion. The Sikhs wish to destroy the shackles of slavery not only for themselves but also for the rest of the Indian population. Thus it is not coincidental that the Brahman Hindus are employing all means and methods at their disposal to brand Sikhs as terrorists. India’s Freedom Fighters and the Nazis Even before the independence of India, some of the Indian freedom movement leaders were eager to join forces with, and seek the assistance of, the Nazis to end the British rule. Perhaps the foremost example is that of Subash Chandar Bose. Due to his anti-British activities, Bose was put under house arrest, nevertheless he soon escaped in the guise of a pathan and traveled to Germany to seek alliance with Hitler. In Germany, he met the higher officials of the Foreign Department and expressed his desire to form an 'Indian Government in Exile' and expected its immediate diplomatic recognition from the Axis Powers. He established himself as the leader of India and was so influenced by Nazi ideology that he adopted the title of “Netaji”, the Indian equivalent of "leader" or "Führer". Bose also desired to form an Indian Army consisting of Indian prisoners of war from North Africa. In the draft proposal of the same, he submitted the following recommendations: a) The Axis Powers would sign a treaty with the ‘Free Indian Government in Exile’ guaranteeing India's independence from British rule once the war was won; The Indian Army would consist of 50,000 soldiers of Indian origin; c) After liberating India, Germany would hand over responsibility to the Government in Exile headed by Netaji himself.[ix] In Berlin, he founded the Free India Center and created the Indian Legion by recruiting Indian prisoners of war. Its members swore the following allegiance to Hitler and Bose: "I swear by God this holy oath that I will obey the leader of the German race and state, Adolf Hitler, as the commander of the German armed forces in the fight for India, whose leader is Subhas Chandra Bose".[x] Therefore, it is doubtless that Bose was heavily and insidiously involved with the fascist Nazi regime. The evidence presented above, absolutely clarifies that the Indian fanatics were leaving no stone unturned in their quest to free India from British rule. They were even willing and eager to ally with the cruel and oppressive Nazis. The precipitous hypocrisy of the Hindus is axiomatic in the fact that they, without a shred of evidence, malign the Khalistanis by branding them fascists, yet sing the praises of Nazi allies whom they adorn with the title of “freedom fighters”. If the Hindus truly hate fascism and reject it in its entirety then they should disown Bose and declare him a traitor. Hindu Nazi Groups – RSS and its Families One may very well wonder that in the modern world, India surely cannot be supporting fascism and concurrently advocating democracy. However, such questions and discussion are fruitless, because the fact of the matter is that India and Hindus are not what they portray themselves as to the world: there are many Hindu terrorist groups advocating far right-wing ideology in India. One of the largest, most nefarious and notorious is the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, popularly known as the RSS. It is an extremist militant group that promotes Hindu supremacy over the entire country. RSS was founded by a Brahman, Hedgewar, and most of its early theorists too were Brahmans and advocates of fascism. Furthermore, the RSS is overly ruled by the Brahmans who as described previously wish to keep Indian population at the fingertips to be used and exploited at will. Basu et al., state: "The RSS, from its inception down to today, has been overwhelmingly middle class Brahmin or Bania in composition, drawn together on the basis of a far psychosis directed against other social groups: Muslims, most overtly, but by implication also lower caste Hindus."[xi] RSS was started to militarize Hindus and promote Hindutva i.e. Hindu culture as supreme and possessing dominance over all minorities. Its branches are called shakhas and other affiliated groups like Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal etc. with similar ideology are referred to as “parivaar” or family. The early RSS leaders kept personal contacts with fascist leaders such as Mussolini and Hitler. Marzia Casolari states: "The interest of Indian Hindu nationalists in fascism and Mussolini must not be considered as dictated by an occasional curiosity, confined to a few individuals, rather, it should be considered as the culminating result of the attention that Hindu nationalists, especially in Maharashtra, focused on Italian dictatorship and its leader."[xii] The first Hindu radical to become explicitly connected with rising fascism in Europe was Dr. B.S. Moonje who was Hedgewar's mentor and major influence[xiii]. On his return from a round table conference in 1931, he took a tour of Europe and made a long stop-over in Italy. There he visited some important military schools and educational institutions for the purpose of adopting the same methods to militarize the Hindus. The highlight of the visit was the meeting with Mussolini. Being much impressed by the organized military schools, he stated: "Leaders should imitate the youth movement of Germany and the Balilla and Fascist organizations of Italy. I think they are eminently suited for introduction in India, adapting them to suit the special conditions. I have been very much impressed by these movements and I have seen their activities with my own eyes in all details."[xiv] After returning to India, he spared no time in quickly getting to work and organizing Hindus on the lines of a fascist agenda. He found one such school, the RSS, as being most suitable for his plan. Relating fascism to the RSS, he states: "The idea of fascism vividly brings out the conception of unity amongst people... India and particularly Hindu Indians need some such institution for the military regeneration of the Hindus: so that the artificial distinction so much emphasized by the British of martial and non–martial classes amongst the Hindus may disappear....Our institution of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh of Nagpur under Dr. Hedgewar is of this kind, though quite independently conceived. I will spend the rest of my life in developing and extending this Institution of Dr. Hedgewar all throughout Maharashtra and other provinces."[xv] Commenting on the purpose of the physical training provided by the RSS, Moonje states: "This training is meant for qualifying and fitting our boys for the game of killing masses of men with the ambition of winning victory with the best possible causalities of dead and wounded while causing the utmost possible to the adversary".[xvi] (bold ours) Thus, Moonje played a crucial role in molding the RSS along fascist lines.[xvii] As explained in the definition provided at the beginning of the article, fascism is completely in opposition to democracy and advocates dictatorship. A single dictator’s whims are considered more useful and more binding to an entire nation than those of separate democratic institutions. This framework proves to be an almost exact fit for the RSS: the successor is decided solely at the discretion of the current leader, and a voting system in the organization is totally nonexistent. Its organization is entirely dictatorial and built upon a fascist agenda. Describing the organization’s structure of RSS, Basu et al. state: "A meeting of prominent RSS workers at Nagpur on 9-10 November 1929 decided to formalize the institutional structure. The key principle adopted was that of ek chalak annuvartita (following one leader), and, as proposed by Appaji Joshi, Hedgewar was chosen as sarsanghchalak, supreme director on a life-time basis. Thus the RSS decided to avoid internal democracy, and opted for a totally centralized command structure, which Hedgewar would be free to expand and elaborate as and when required."[xviii] (ours). Therefore, the RSS leadership is entirely dictatorial with the current leader personally appointing his successor. Andersen & Damle explain: "The RSS has experienced no major succession crisis probably because swayamsevaks believe that a sarsanghchalak has the right to choose his successor. Golwalkar was announced to be Hedgewar's choice as the next sarsanghchalak….Golwalkar's successor was also accepted with little overt opposition."[xix] The leader makes all the rules and whatever he says is obeyed by the members. The members are not encouraged to read, advance their mental thinking, or to question the leadership. They are expected to obey like servants and never to utter a word. The members are provided physical training in order to defend themselves from the “minority threat” and “protect” the Hindus from minority attacks. Hindutva is not the majority voice within democratic parameters but rather the majority voice of the Hindu population. Basu et al. differentiating RSS ideology from democracy explain: "In democracy, however, no majority is ever assumed to be permanent, or based on a single unchanging identity alone: a majority is constructed from issue to issue and can change from programme to programme. The majority that Hindutva claims to represent, on the other hand, is by definition, permanent, for it is constituted solely by the fact that 85 percent of the population are, by census statistics, Hindu."[xx] The main goal of the RSS is to exert the superiority of the Hindu majority over the entire nation. They mean to achieve this by denying minority rights and assimilating other religions into Hinduism to the extent that any other unique religious identity is subverted or forever made subservient to the Hindu rule: "The notion of Hindu culture that is propagated in its (RSS) shakhas is a definition of a majoritarian and authoritarian rashtra where Hindus, under RSS direction, will lay down the rules by which the minorities must abide. Its version of Hindu culture is inextricably mingled with antagonism against the non-Hindu."[xxi] The RSS seeks to promote nationalism on communal lines. According to communalism, the interests of society as a whole are neglected in favor of only the interests of the majority community. The RSS advocates a form of Hindu nationalism, which seeks to establish India as a Hindu Rashtra (Hindu Nation), and rejects the notion of a composite Indian identity brought about by a synthesis of different cultures and faiths.[xxii] RSS members are regularly brainwashed with the often repeated tutelage that non-Hindus must be assimilated into the Hindu way of life.[xxiii] Furthermore, the RSS training exercise ends with the authoritarian nationalist slogan, 'Hindustan Hindu Ka, nahi kisi ke baap Ka’[xxiv] (India belongs to Hindus and not to anyone’s father). The slogan makes it explicitly clear that India is a Hindu country and does not belong to anyone else be it Sikhs, Muslims, or Christians. This is comparable to Nazis claiming Germany to be exclusively for Germans where there is no place for Jews. .Thus, according to the ideology of the RSS, all non-Hindus are traitors of India and must either be wiped off or forced to submit to the Hindu rule. Drawing inspiration from the Nazis, Golwalkar (the second RSS leader) states: "To keep up the purity of the Race and its culture, Germany shocked the world by her purging the country of the Semitic races—the Jews. Race pride at its highest has been manifested here. Germany has also shown how well-nigh impossible it is for Races and cultures, having differences going to the root, to be assimilated into one united whole, a good lesson for us in Hindustan to learn and profit by."[xxv] He then proceeds to spell out the Indian implications of what he had learnt from Nazism with enviable clarity: "From this standpoint sanctioned by the experience of shrewd old nations, the non-Hindu people in Hindustan must either adopt the Hindu culture and language, must learn to respect and revere Hindu religion, must entertain no idea but the glorification of the Hindu nation i.e. they must not only give up their attitude of intolerance and ingratitude towards this land and its age-long traditions, but must also cultivate the positive attitude of love and devotion instead; in one word, they must cease to be foreigners or may stay in the country wholly subordinated to the Hindu nation claiming nothing, deserving no privileges, far less any preferential treatment, not even citizen's rights."[xxvi] All Muslims, in particular, are by definition traitors: "They have also developed a feeling of identification with the enemies of this land. They look to some foreign lands as their holy places. They call themselves Sheikhs and Syeds ... They still think they have come here to conquer and establish their kingdoms. So we see that it is not merely a case of change of faith, but a change even in national identity. What else is it if not treason, to join the camp of the enemy leaving the mother nation in the lurch?"[xxvii] It is noteworthy that the same statement by definition applies to the Sikhs since many Gurdwaras and holy sites fall far beyond India. Hence, Sikh holy places are not limited to few parts of India alone but many parts in foreign countries like Pakistan, Turkey, Bengal, Iran, Iraq, Tibet etc. are also equally important. The CSHF report also finds the Hindutva movement comparable to that of the Nazis and seeking to destroy all other minorities in Indian society. They summarize as follows: "The Hindutva movement is a violent sectarian movement seeking to create a Hindu Rashtra (an ethnically 'pure' Hindu Nation) in India, in many ways similar to the Nazi idea of a pure Aryan Germany. It seeks to exclude or eliminate religious minorities such as Muslims and Christians and fix Dalits and Adivasis into an internal hierarchy of caste."[xxviii] (bold ours) One of the prominent personalities in the RSS was Savarkar who is attributed to the invention of the politically recognized definition of the term ‘Hindu’. Professing his support for fascism, he states: "Who are we to dictate to Germany, Japan, or Russia, or Italy to choose a particular form of policy of government simply because we woo it out of academical attraction? Surely Hitler knows better than Pandit Nehru does what suits Germany best. The very fact that Germany or Italy has so wonderfully recovered and grown so powerful as never before at the touch of Nazi or Fascist magical wand is enough to prove that those political “isms” were the most congenial tonics their health demanded. India may choose or reject particular form of government, in accordance with her political requirements. But Pandit went out of his way when he took sides in the name of all Indians against Germany or Italy. Pandit Nehru might claim to express the Congress section in India at the most. But it should be made clear to the German, Italian, or Japanese public that crores of Hindu Sanghatanists in India whom neither Pandit Nehru nor the Congress represents, cherish no ill-will towards Germany or Italy or Japan or any other country in the world simply because they had chosen a form of government or constitutional policy which they though (sic) suited best and contributed most to their national solidarity and strength."[xxix] Indeed, in speech after speech, Savarkar supported Hitler’s anti-Jewish policy, and, on October 14, 1938, he suggested the following solution for the Muslim problem in India: "A Nation is formed by a majority living therein. What did the Jews do in Germany? They being in minority were driven out from Germany."[xxx] In order to exterminate the Sikh minority, the RSS formed a specific sub-group named the Rashtriya Sikh Sangat. This sub-group is assigned the specific duty of systematically eradicating and disintegrating the Sikh nation and assimilating whatever remains into the folds of Hinduism. In order to ensure the success of their nefarious plan, to this date, they have already heavily infiltrated Sikh organizations and religious bodies. They wish to establish control over Sikh Gurdwaras and then introduce Hindu practices that will cause internal conflicts within the community. They have coaxed many sycophantic scholars from different universities in order to employ them to rewrite Sikh history according to Hindu ideology. These ostensible scholars are distorting the actual facts of Sikh history, manipulating school syllabi to teach students that Sikhs are in fact not a separate nation, and using the mass media to promote anti-Sikh attitudes. Such tactics even exceed the malevolence of those used by Nazis to exterminate the Jews. Realizing this fact far ahead of his time, Swami Dharma Theertha predicted prior to Indian’s independence, that the Hindus, once free, will follow the example of Hitler and subjugate all non-Hindus. He states: "Just as Hitler stopped at nothing, did not hesitate to adopt the most brutal methods to achieve his objects, people who think their so-called culture to be unique will, when they get power, use all means to preserve and propagate the injustices and atrocities which are masqueraded in the name of that culture. Give the Hindus independence and the necessary power, they will be as violent as imperialists, and as aggressive as other people, and in addition will do their utmost to propagate their caste culture and priestcraft, as “the unique Hindu civilisation.” All the arguments of the Bhagvad Gita and other sacred books will be used to justify bloody wars and the suppression of human rights. An independent and powerful Hindu India clinging to its caste culture will be a menace to civilisation and world peace."[xxxii] Hence, the Sikh freedom struggle, or the Khalistan movement, has a twofold purpose: i) to ensure the survival of the Sikh religion and ii) as instructed by the Sikh Gurus, to uproot the injustice, oppression, suppression, and cruelty of a governing regime; in this instance; Hindu Nazism. By fighting an armed struggle against Hindu tyranny, the Sikhs are engaging in a pious and noble endeavor against Hindu terrorism in the Sikh homeland. Some Methods of Suppression It is beyond the scope of this article to discuss every method being employed by the Indian regime to suppress and exterminate the Sikh nation; however, it is important to highlight key points related to this matter for the readers to be fully aware of Indian fascism at work against the Sikhs. 1) Sikhs have been classified as Hindus in the Indian Constitution. This was done against the promises made by the Indian leaders prior to 1947. The Sikhs refused to sign the Constitution. Regardless, it was adopted by the Indian government. This was the first step to deny the Sikhs their naturally unique and distinct identity. 2) The Sikh quota in the army was significantly reduced from more than 20% to less than 2% in order to keep their armed strength under control. This is directly and inanely against the Constitution because if Sikhs are considered Hindus then there is no need to consider them a minority and restrict their enlistment along the same lines. 3) Sikhs are forced to register their marriage under Hindu Marriage Act. It is noteworthy, that the Sikhs had their separate marriage act during the British rule and they were allowed to register their marriages under the Anand Marriage Act. This was repealed by the Indian government when Hindus came into power. This was another step taken to further strengthen the Hindu stronghold on the Sikhs. 4) Ever since the independence of India, numerous Gurdwaras have been attacked by the government. Darbar Sahib, the holiest Sikh shrine, was attacked in 1955 and 1984. In 1984, the damage was equivalent to the one caused by Abdali, a foreign invader. The Indian army desecrated the holy place and engaged in a cold-blooded massacre of innocent Sikhs. In November 1984, Hindu hooligans carried out mass murder of the Sikhs throughout India in a most gruesome, despicable, and merciless manner for many days. Sikh women have been dishonored in police stations of Punjab from 1984-1995. Sri Guru Granth Sahib (Sikh Holy Scriptures) has been burnt and desecrated countless times. The perpetrators instead of being arrested for insulting the religion and hurting the religious sentiments of the Sikh community, have been provided with the highest level of Z+ security. Contrastingly, there has not been a single case of a Hindu temple being attacked, Hindu books being desecrated or Hindu women being dishonored. In other words, Hindus have not suffered the same fate which clearly proves our point that the government is deliberately targeting the Sikhs to suppress and destroy them. 5) The government and Hindu media has been advocating mockery of the Sikh identity in movies, television serials, and advertisements. This constant downplay of the Sikh image is attempted character assassination: by maligning the reputation and misrepresenting the ideals of Sikhi, the Hindu media and government seek to discourage the youth from adopting the Sikh religion. All these methods are being employed to achieve an objective: to degrade the Sikh’s religious and cultural morale, self-confidence, and pride. 6) Sikh history is being distorted and falsely presented in the books. Life events related to the Sikh Gurus are being given a distinctly Hindu flavor, and Sikh practices and Gurbani are being deliberately misinterpreted to make them in-line with Hinduism. 7) The government has deliberately taken away Punjab’s rights of water and electricity to economically cripple the Sikh majority state. Furthermore, Punjab has been flooded with liquor and intoxicants in order to break away the next generation from the ideals of Sikhism. No other state has been meted out the same treatment. The above points make it clear that the Hindu government denied and continues to deny basic human rights and freedom of religion to the Sikh nation. Sir P. C. Ray says: "Hinduism is only tolerant and catholic in mere empty words. In actual life it is rigid, cruel and repulsive."[xxxiii] It is an undeniable fact that as long as Sikhs live in Hindu India, they will always be subjected to persecution, massacres, subjugation, slavery and barbarity. Our words are echoed by Swami Dharma Theertha when he writes: "No other people deny justice and humanity to their own kith and kin, their own co-religionists and compatriots without rhyme or reason as the Hindus do even today.["xxxiv] It is a noteworthy fact that not even on a single occasion in the entire history of India has the Hindu rule been beneficial or prosperous for the majority. Every single time, it was governed by Brahmanism and repeatedly committed the most heinous crimes against humanity. The Hindu State was similarly an instrument for the preservation of the master-slave culture of Brahmanism. It existed not for the advancement of the Hindu peoples, but for their suppression and exploitation for the profit of the Brahmans and their partisans. Under the rule of the Hindu Rajas, the Hindu masses never prospered[xxxv]…. It has always existed for the profit of a small minority of high castes and the exploitation and suppression of the largest number. The scheme of Hindu life, social, religious and political, fundamentally remains what it was in the days of Manu when the people were nothing, the prince was little and the priest was everything.[xxxvi] Overall, this article indubitably proves in reality that it is the Hindus who are the ones that deserve being branded and labeled as fascist, and not the Sikhs as is being falsely advocated by the Indian bureaucracy. By denying basic human rights and religious freedom to the Sikhs, India is unequivocally suppressing the Sikh nation and making every attempt to destroy this small community using the same methods that were once used to eradicate Buddhism from India. The outcome, however, will not be the same. Fascism once again shall perish and from its ashes will rise the Sikh state built upon the foundations of freedom, equality, and justice. -Bijla Singh. http://sikhfreedom.com/fascism.html Notes and References .

In this country desired by the fascist Hindu organizations, the Hindu language and culture take precedence over everything else and cannot conflict with anything, be it constitution, freedom, or human rights. All minorities will either be crushed or forced to live in submission to please the majority Hindus.

I got this from Tisarpanth, the admin's sources are listed blow on the link: The commencement of the so-called Islamic expansion, or Arab colonialism catalyzed in extremely bloodthirsty massacres, pillaging and destruction of extensive non-Islamic civilizations, all justified of course by the ambiguity prevalent in the Koran. Apologists have commenced to birth a list of intensively pacifying verses from the Koran rebutting such facts, and reiterate legends orbiting around a so-called golden and more tolerant Islam. The myth however bears it's own stigma and is highly fallacious especially regarding the amount of archaeological and historical evidence present pertaining to the contrary. The Koran itself is divided into dual components, with the earlier being the 'Meccan Sura' which contains a majority of verses (including the 'golden' verses) which were abrogated in favor of the more stratifying and bloody 'Medinian Surra' and it's components. As per the latter idolaters, non-muslims and any individual suspected of being against the Islamic creed are deserving of execution and have no right to reside. These later doctrines formed the nucleus of the Islamic agenda birthed for the exploitation and conquest of the Indian sub-continent, which at the conjuncture was home to more than one diverse spiritual tradition. Masterminded by Hajjaj, the governor of Iraq, and his slavish commander Muhammad b. Qasim in A.D. 712, Qasim was instructed to first obtain Sind and 'bring destruction on the unbelievers... (and) to invite and induce (emphasis ours) toaccept (as per Islamic norms more by violence than rhetoric) the true creed, and belief in the unity of God... and whoever does not submit to Islam, treat him harshly and cause injury to him till he submits!' 'On the evidence of Baladhuri's account of the conquest of Sind, there were certainly massacres in the towns of Sind when the Arabs first arrived.' -C.E. Bosworth. After the conquest of the trading nucleus, port Debal, Qasim and his fanatics indulged in the massacre of the captured civilians over the course of three days. Subsequently he became more lenient towards a few individuals in the imprisoned populace even allowing them to practice their rituals, this however rankled Hajjaj's sense of faith, and he dispatched an immediate message to Qasim reminding him of his honor-bound duty as an adherent of Islam. 'My dear cousin I have received your life-augmenting letter. On it's receipt my gladness and joy knew no bounds. It increased my pride and glory to the highest degree. It appears from your letter that all the rules made by you for the comfort and convenience of your men are strictly in accordance with religious law (emphasis ours). But the way of granting pardon prescribed by the law (the 'Sharia') is different from the one adopted by you, for you go on giving pardon to everybody high or low, without any discretion between a friend and foe. The Great God says in the Koran (47,4): "O true believers, when you encounter the unbelievers, strike off their heads!" (emphasis ours). The command of the great God is a great command and must be respected and followed. You should not be fond of showing mercy, as to nullify the virtue of the act. Henceforth grant pardon to no one of the enemy and spare none of them, or else all will consider you a weakminded man. Concluded with compliments. Written by Nafia in the year ninety three.' -Hajjaj to Muhammad b. Qasim. True to a fault, Qasim ordered the slaughter of all male individuals in his subsequent actions, whilst capturing their women and children as slaves. The real conquest, and subsequent arrival of the Turks (term used in Punjab to refer to individuals of Islamic origin) commenced with the arrival of the Turco-Afghan dynasty, headed by Mahmud of Ghazni, in A.D. 1,000. Commencing a bloody campaign of psychopathic slaughter left and right, Mahmud was an extensively delusional individual feeding on Koranic norms. He vowed to eradicate all idolaters and birth a series of 'Jihads' (or holy wars) to annihilate the infidel. 'Mahmud was a zealous muslim (emphasis ours) of the ferocious type then prevalent, who felt it to be a duty as well as pleasure to slay idolaters. He was also greedy of treasure and took good care to derive a handsome profit from his holy wars.' -Vincent Smith. As emphasized by Mahmud's personal media 'man:' 'Mahmud utterly ruined the prosperity of the country, and performed there wonderful feats, by which the Hindus became like atoms of dust scattered in all directions, and like a tale of old in the mouth of the people. Their scattered remains cherish, of course, the most inveterate aversion toward all muslims.' -Alberuni. Over the course of seventeen invasions Mahmud slaughtered more than an estimated 90-100,000 individuals and more in his religious crusade. Commencing with the conquest of King Jaipal of Punjab, he then proceeded to Multan in 1004 A.D. where after conquering the region of Ghur he forcibly had the indigenous residents converted to Islam. The Hindu temples of the sub-continent fell prey to his selfish depravity and perversion. He commenced an extensive desecration, destruction and looting of the said temples. 'Mathura, the holy city of Krishna, was the next victim. "In the middle of the city there was a temple larger and finer than the rest, which can neither be described nor painted" The Sultan (Mahmud) was of the opinion that 200 years would have been required to build it. The idols included "five of red gold, each five yards high," with eyes formed of priceless jewels. "The Sultan gave orders that all the temples should be burnt with naphtha and fire, and levelled with the ground." Thus perished works of art which must have been the noblest monuments of ancient India.' -Vincent Smith. Subsequently at the site of Somnath, in the aftermath of the battle, the autocratic tyrant Mahmud had 50,000 non-Islamic individuals slaughtered for his gratification. Despite Islamic historians and apologists veiling Mahmud's religious mania, and subsequent psychopathic tendencies, he was nothing more than an avaricious thug, given great precedent via religion. Mahmud's trail of bloodshed found an able successor in the form of Firuz Shah, an able administrator and a liberal via many perspectives, the latter was a fanatical bigot in terms of Islamic dominance over non-Islamic cultures and faiths. Establishing the 'Sharia' and Koranic injunctures as his mainstay influences he commenced a wholesale venture in slavery, and forcibly proselytized 180,000 non-Islamic slaves into accepting Islam to preserve their lives. After commencing an intensive genocidal purge against the Shia sect prevalent in Islam, he executed a mass-scale agenda executing any muslim personage found in the midst of Hindu festivities. Even the latter class was not sheltered from his periodical spasms of religious wrath and witnessed it's temples and heritage being reduced to rubble. Being an able exploiter he increased the Islamic poll tax for non-adherents, and subsequently forced the latter into accepting Islam via bribery. The man literally believed he was a formidable symbol of Islam and had Hindus burnt alive for practicing their religious rites. 'Firuz Shah, when due allowance is made for his surroundings and education, could not have escaped from the theory and practice of religious intolerance. It was not possible for him to rise, as Akbar did, to the conception that the ruler of Hindustan should cherish all his subjects alike, whether muslim or Hindu, and allow every man absolute freedom, not only conscience but of public worship. The muslims of the fourteenth century were still dominated by the ideas current in the early days of Islam, and were convinced that the tolerance of idolatry was a sin (Hajjaj already proved his point prior to Mahmud).' -Vincent Smith. http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/07/the-arrival-of-turks.html And Morarji Desai still had the cheek to come to Darbar Sahib and say it's gold belonged to Somnath and should be returned. But of course EKOMKAR can easily employ his 'genuine trivia' to veil such incidents.

Ram Chandra beheaded a dalit for meditating upon the lord. He promised that in his prolonged reign no parent would face the need of mourning a progeny. A Brahmin came to him weeping that his son had died. Wishing to see a cadaver, Ram Chandra reached the Brahmin's residence and perceived a Dalit contemplating the lord and reciting the Vedas. Enraged he beheaded the latter, and resurrected his suppliant's offspring. This tale was employed as an excuse to persecute Dalits for thousands of years.

If I remember correctly Bal Thakery was granted great prominence in Maharasthra, by prominent Hindu dignitaries, for a Shiv Sena lead crusade against Biharis. Didn't he state, 'go back to Bihar. We do not want you here.'What more can we expect from a nation where such crypto-fascists are granted free reign on a major political platform? And N30 this doesn't begin or end with Sikhs. There should be reconciliation between all minorities in India spearheaded by a Hindu apologetic body. Christians, Muslims etc.

This is based on Giani Gurbachan Singh Ji's Katha. http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/pooran-tam-avtar.html

In Gurmat we accept Akal as being formless but the parent of all forms. Baba Santa Singh says that this Akal manifested his shakti, which then shaped the illusion as per it's parent's wishes. This shakti is Bhagauti, Bhagvati, Durga and Chandi. For the Khalsa it is often worshipped in it's sargun saroop as the sword. Avtar Singh Vahira writes that this Shakti is itself a form of the lord (Khalsa Dharam Shastar), but a more feminine one opposed to the masculine view purported to by other faiths. When shakti (the Akal) in a sargun saroop appeared to the Guru it/he/she granted him the power of Shakti to fortify and embolden the panth. Vahira also evidences the fact that before any 'Hindu Dharma,' or 'Sikh Dharma' existed individuals saw the Khalsa Gurus and Indian deities as having been sent by one source. Subsequently, he provides an exegesis of how Krishna, Ram Chandra and many others manifested this motherly form of the lord for success. Secondly the Khalsa (pure) has existed since time immemorial. It has only evolved in form. As far as I am concerned I do not trust any facebook post, lol, God help us if facebook became our repository of knowledge. Chibber has also written an exegesis of Uggardanti, yet neo-Sikhs twist it to idealise the notion that a certain Sukha Singh wrote it. http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/10/the-metaphysical-feminine.html?view=timeslide http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/10/the-diversification-of-brahm.html?view=timeslide http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/09/the-linear-narrative.html?view=timeslide http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/09/the-primary-narrative.html?view=timeslide

Lol what Hindus said about him? You should go on Comedy tonight mate. You can get a fair idea of what Hindus think about Mo from here: Islamic doctrines have failed to establish a distinct division between state and faith leading to the perpetration of history's most barbarous acts in the name of religion. Envisioned by the Prophet Muhammad, Islam was devised as a totalitarian system which would encapsulate an adherent's psyche and retain it in a vice-like grip rendering the latter helpless. As per it's theological doctrines, the ruler was a Pharaonic embodiment of Allah's bestowed rights, rendering his wards ineffectual in his presence and subject to his bidding. Whether he followed the tenets of Islam or birthed his own diverse course, what truly mattered was the gratification of the larger Islamic community and it's extremist hype. As long as the said ruler adhered to the principles of the 'Sharia' or Islamic law publicly, he was a divine autocrat. The commencement of the so-called Islamic expansion, or Arab colonialism catalyzed in extremely bloodthirsty massacres, pillaging and destruction of extensive non-Islamic civilizations, all justified of course by the ambiguity prevalent in the Koran. Apologists have commenced to birth a list of intensively pacifying verses from the Koran rebutting such facts, and reiterate legends orbiting around a so-called golden and more tolerant Islam.

New York and London, G.P. Putnam and Sons. As per a philosophical perspective regarding Gurmat: According to Gurmat, creation and it's physical precepts are 'maya' or an illusory mirage enwebbing the soul in a haze of ambiguity and decisiveness. Simultaneously the liberated soul is not attached to such illusory precepts and subsequently achieves union with the creator, foregoing all or any need of requiring physical sustenance and/or nourishment in the afterlife. Several spiritual movements birthed in the east, place extensive emphasis on such a concept where the physical body is a temporary vessel for a particular conjuncture and ultimately discarded. With the spread of Islamic barbarity on the sub-continent a new ideology of a "physical" afterlife was forced down the throats of the non-muslims via the sharp vertex of the sword. This so-called authentic perspective on the after-life however was not authentic in it's construction and forcefully plagiarized of a historic Zoroastrianism. The assimilation of foreign influences on the tribal Arabian psyche was an important evolution in the Prophet Muhammad's unity of the latter. Mimicking concepts which he saw fit he undertook extensive pains to eradicate any authentic references to the sources which contributed to the birth of Islam, subsequently after the conquest of Medina he declared all non-muslims as"infidel" worthy of slaughter. Paradoxically he enshrined the norm of forcefully proselytizing the said class, whilst declaring Allah's pre-determination of them being worthy of hell. 'This book is not to be doubted (in reference to doubts being raised on the veracity of the paradoxical norms of the Koran)... As for the unbelievers, it is the same whether or not you forewarn them ('forewarn?' A subtle reference to proselytizing?); they will not have faith. God has set a seal upon their hearts and ears (where his benevolence is as per Islam is a mystery). Their sight is dimmed and grievous punishment awaits them.' -Koran 2:1/2:6-2:10. The ambiguity of the Koran, and subsequently the prophet, over the specific references of the above verse refute any claims of proselytized individuals reaping any rewards for their conversion. Simultaneously one is awe-struck and left wondering as to what criteria is applied by Muhammad's deity to pre-judge those deserving of punishment, and those liberated and given passage to a mythical afterlife. The said paradise itself is however a cheap mimic of the Zoroastrian afterlife. Birthed via the confluence of the divergent Indo-Iranian tradition, the latter faith can easily be labelled as being the parental source of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. As per archaeological and sociological analyzations one can easily infer that the Islamic afterlife, so bloodily waved around, is nothing more than an ambiguous amalgamation of Hindu and Persian ideologies with a sprinkling of Greek mythology. 'Ahura Mazda, the supreme lord of Iran, omniscient, omnipresent, and eternal, endowed with creative power, which he exercises especially through the medium of his 'Spenta Mainyu'-Holy Spirit- and governing, the universe through the instrumentality of angels and archangels, presents the nearest parallel to YHWH (who as per Islamic doctrines evolved into 'Allah') that is found in antiquity. But Ormuzd's power is hampered by his adversary, Ahriman, whose dominion, however, like Satan's (Iblis as per Muhammad's doctrines who refused to bow to Adam) shall be destroyed at the end of the world... There are striking parallels... in their eschatological teachings-the doctrine of a regenerate world, a perfect kingdom, the coming of a Messiah (Mehdi Mir in Islam), the resurrection of the dead, and the life everlasting (in an illusory world). Both are revealed religions.' -Widengren. As for the Islamic warrior who meets his demise whilst decimating an infidel or dies for the fascist cause of Islam, a reflection of the Greek 'Elysian' fields is awarded to him for the perpetual satisfaction of his libido. 'The Muslim version of paradise closely resembles the Hindu and Iranian accounts. The Zoroastrian 'Hadhoxt Nask' describes the fate of the soul after death. The soul of the righteous spends three nights near the corpse, and at the end of the 3rd night the soul sees it's own religion ('daera') in the form of a beautiful damsel, a lovely fifteen year old virgin; thanks to good actions she has grown beautiful; they then ascend heaven together. This vision resembles the Hindu stories of the 'Apsarasas' , described as 'seductive celestial nymphs who dwell in Indra's paradise' and often act as dancers of the Gods, but who also welcome the soul into paradise. They are the rewards in Indra's paradise held out for fallen heroes.' -Ibn Warraq. One can easily conclude that there is no originality of the after-life in the Islamic doctrine which is a specific amalgamation, via ambiguity, of various pagan and sub-continental traditions. It can only be achieved via pre-determination and pre-destination on the behest of a tyrannical supreme overlord who ruthlessly exploits and subjugates his created wards to unbearable torture, whilst protecting a paradoxical and an almost primitive minority. And no, no fat guy, media or dude on the internet gave this to me. I got all this from works praising Muhammad which unfortunately were not able to veil his reality enough.

Plus Sher you can track down the Mughal sources themselves and flip through them. I am sure being in India you are in a more closer proximity to them than me. On the other hand why are we forgetting Bhangu himself was a Nihung and his parents were from a generation which would have seen Banda's volte-face? Of course he would have vilified his microcosmic mistakes to a paramount extent to prove his own (Bhangu's) calibre.

If you could kindly highlight where the Nahan Raja is mentioned in that extract, than that would be a phenomenal aid! Also where Bhangu mentions Binod Singh being released from Mughal imprisonment and the Jagirs being gifted to Banda's detractors.

Bhangu mentions the Khalsa as being a collective body of the Guru. Subsequently he mentions the Guru elevating the Shabad Guru, so thus there was no need to fear any renegade hijack. The Khalsa was amde Guru at Chamkaur, even before Banda met the Guru. Again historically speaking Banda Singh and Binod Singh were the ones who brought the ascension of the Shabad Guru to a majority of the Sikhs. Harbhajan Singh, author of Gurbani Sampadan Nirnay, is of the opinion that the Damdami Bir which was given Guruship accompanied Banda from Punjab and it was he who brought the edicts identifying it's new status quo. Budha-Dal oral tradition, and Baba Santa Singh's steek of the Prachin Panth Prakash, mention Banda going off track but soon repenting. His status as an amritdhari however is confirmed by both. Khalsa is made Guru at Chamkaur: “Quatrain: They arranged intense vigil all around with man standing next to man. More with more men were posted. In between them, none could penetrate at night. 2 One would surmise, ‘the Guru will not be contained’ and then again, ‘how will he fly off?’ In all four directions are his would be captors. A hundred thousand surrounded him. 3 Neither can he grow wings and fly away to some place, nor can he enter into the earth. Very rightly, the Guru was in real difficulty. It was as the people had speculated. 4 The True Guru could think of nothing viable. He had no fighting forces left. The princes had attained martyrdom. It was a matter of serious concern for the True Guru.5 Couplet: ‘I have returned my sons’ thought the True Guru. ‘There appears to be no escape for me and others. Whatever happens is His Will.’6 Quatrain: However, it is well that the Turks are responsible for our deaths. The words of our ancestors have been fulfilled. Now let me bestow Guruship on the Khalsa. He placed the mark of Guruship on the Khalsa.’ 7 Chaupai : Then Banda declared himself to be the humble servant of the Guru, And declared the Guru to be his spiritual guide and master. He begged forgiveness of the Guru for his past misdeeds, And promised never to indulge in any of his past activities. (16) He proclaimed himself to be the humble servant of the Guru, And promised to carry out any command of the Guru. He beseeched the Guru to take him into his fold, And consider him as the most intimate disciple of the Guru. (17) He bent on his knees with folded hands before the Guru. The Guru felt pleased (at his change of heart and transformation), And accepted Banda to be his disciple for his obedience. (1) Chaupai : The Guru warned Banda of the rigours of becoming a Guru’s disciple, As it involved an unconditional surrender of one’s complete self before the Guru, Since accepting His way of life meant total surrender of one’s pride, It was an extremely difficult and rigorous way of life. (2) Since becoming a Guru’s Sikh meant complete dissolution of one’s ego, It involved renouncing one’s family ties and accepting Guru’s ideological order. It resembled the renunciation of an insect, which severed its links with its own species, And forged an allegiance with another order of species of humming bees. (3) Dohra : The tradition of Sikhism’s ideological code was as difficult to follow, As a walk on the razor’s edge more sharp than a strand of hair. A devotee must serve the guru with complete commitment and devotion, And yet remain humble during his service to the Guru. (4) Whatever conditions the Guru laid down before the supplicating Banda, The Banda accepted all those stipulations in complete humility. The Guru, then, named him as Banda Singh from his earlier name, Which the Guru’s new disciple accepted in all humility and reverence. (5) Chaupai : When Banda Singh beseeched the Guru repeatedly for mercy, The Guru blessed him out of his benevolence and grace. Banda Singh, then, sought Guru’s permission to allot him some task, And begged for any kind of service that he could render unto the Guru. (6) The bold is where the Prachin Panth Prakash Katha, by the Budha-Dal, makes an emphasis to prove Banda was an amritdhari. It subsequently explains why the Nihungs almost condemn his memory. His renunciation of the Khalsa code did not sit well with their foremost post-Guru era commander, Akali-Nihung Baba Binod Singh Ji. But even before that Bhangu mentions Bahadur Shah's letter to Banda: Although the Emperor himself was keen to kill all those hill chiefs, Yet it was better that Guru’s own disciple had dealt with them. The emperor reiterated that he was a humble servant of the Guru, Since it was with the Guru’s grace that he had become a sovereign. Now we reach the area where Bhangu ultimately expresses Banda as being a turncoat. After taking great pains to highlight Banda's willingness to join the panth, he now employs a swift tempo to show Banda's betrayal: Banda Singh had written that he was, no longer, a Guru’s follower, As he had been an original follower of Bairagi Vaishno seat. He remarked that his collaboration with the Guru was over, As he would become a sovereign with his own powers. (20) Then we have the mughals. Persian sources, such as the Tarik-I-Jahandar Shah, Ibratnama, Shahnama (not the Persian epic about Sorab and Rustam but the work of Munwar Kalam) and Fatuhatnama-I-Samadi, often employ derogatory terms for Banda which were usually reserved for Sikhs. 'The accursed Nanakpanthi...' etc. Subsequently they also praise the role of Hindus in supporting the Mughals against the Khalsa. 1.) The Rajput polity's apathy in supporting Banda. Banda is said to have sent Raja Sawai Jai Singh a letter on September 11, 1711 A.D. to form a coalition with the Khalsa. The latter would have been beneficial, especially due to the Rajput proximity to the Mughal nucleus. 2.) The actions of the Shivalik monarchs. The latter provided necessary rations and manpower to the Mughal forces to obstruct Banda during the campaigns of Lohgarh and Gurdas Nangal. It is significant to note that along with the Akhbar-I-Durbar-I-Mulla, these sources perpetually refer to Banda's low character, which is proclaimed as arising out of: 1.) His persecution of Radical Islam. 2.) His persecution of Radical casteism. 3.) His persecution of the High Castes. And what each of them note as being his liberation of the 'Shudras' from their inherent shackles. This is purported as being one of the many reasons as to why many Hindu monarchs failed to respond to his alliance requests. Bhangu's elaboration as the panth being Guru is easily evidenced from the Sarabloh Granth, which is believed to have been concluded around the time the Guru met Banda. It is also significant to note that Nihungs believe Banda also possessed a Bir of this Granth. ਆਪਨਪੌ ਸ਼੍ਰੀ ਖਾਲਸਹਿ ਸੌਪਾਂ, ਦ੍ਵਤਯਿ ਰੂਪ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਗ੍ਰੰਥਾ ॥ I (Guru Gobind Singh Ji) have passed down (my form) to the Khalsa, the second Form of mine is the Granth ਬੋਲਨ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਸਬਦ-ਸੋਭਾਖਨ, ਨਾਮ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਕੀਰਤਨਿ ਸੰਥਾ ॥ The recitation of the Shabad is the Satiguru's speach to us, whether it be Gods Name [simran roop)], or through singing hymns [keertan], or through studying His Word [santhaa] ਗੁਨਾਨੁਵਾਦ ਪੁਨਿ ਸਿਫਤਿ ਸਲਾਹਨਿ, ਊਠਤੁ ਬੈਠਤੁ ਸੈਨ ਕਰੰਥਾ ॥ By praising the Lord one becomes virtuous, whether standing or sitting ਪਾਵਨ ਪੰਥ ਖਾਲਸਹਿ ਪ੍ਰਗਟਯੋ, ਚਾਰ ਵਰਨ ਆਸ਼੍ਰਮ ਸੁਭ ਪੰਥਾ ॥੧॥ The pure Panth, the Khalsa has came into being, that glorious Panth with four castes [Khatri, Bahman, Sudh, Vaish] and four ashrams [brahamchari, Grishti, Vaanprasti, Sanyasi] ਇਨ ਕੇ ਦਰਸ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਕੋ ਦਰਸਨ, ਬੋਲਨ ਗੁਰੂ ਸਬਦੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਗ੍ਰੰਥਾ ॥ If you wish to behold Me then behold the Khalsa [which is Satiguru], if you wish to speak to Me then repeat the Bani from the Guru Granth Sahib ਦ੍ਵਾਦਸਿ ਰੂਪ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਏ ਕਹਿਯਤਿ, ਦ੍ਵਾਦਸਿ-ਭਾਨੁ ਪ੍ਰਗਟ ਹਰਿ ਸੰਤਾ ॥ Oh Saints of the Hari listen, in twelve forms the Satiguru appears, just as twelve phases of the sun ਪ੍ਰਤਯਖ ਕਲਾ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਧਣੀਛੈ, ਗ੍ਰੰਥਿ ਪੰਥ ਖਾਲਸ ਵਰਤੰਤਾ ॥ The visible power of God is manifested in the Khalsa as [the doctrine of the Guru] Granth and [that of the Guru] Panth ਦਾਸ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਫਤਹ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕੀ, ਖਾਸ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਗੁਰੁ ਰੂਪ ਬਦੰਤਾ ॥੨॥ਦੁਪਦ ੧॥ The Servant, Gobind [singh] says, all victory is Paramatma's, the true Guru's form is now the [Guru] Granth. So in conclusion we are left reeling with the fact that Banda, once an amritdhari, betrayed his Guru, yet apologized for his misdeeds.

Prachin Panth Prakash mentions Banda Singh as being an Amritdhari. So does the Amarnamah. The latter manuscript is plausibly scribed by Dhahdi Nath Mall during the Guru's sojourn. The fact that the Tat Khalsa split with the Bandais indicates a Khalsa link of sorts devoid of any Hindu or Islamic influence. At a tie when a patriarchal Sikh identity was being formed, I am sure a non-amritdhari would have been the last candidate chosen as a chief elect for the Khalsa.

He has a significant affliction with Khalistanis. Its a veil employed to push forward anti-revisionism. Although of course there is a mass failure to substantially define the fundamental points of his crusade.

I have chrome.

We believe in hell? Do we also believe in a dude who died, came back to life and always said he was the son of God? Do we also believe in virgins giving birth?

We have all plausibly heard the narrative of Akali-Nihung Guru Gobind Singh Ji's preliminary sojourn as 'Dusht-Daman' and the manifestation of the prior Nihungs. For those who are a bit lost, heres what I am talking about, http://tisarpanth.blogspot.co.nz/2013/01/nihung-singhs-original-khalsa.html, http://www.nihangsingh.org/website/his-origins.html after studying this info I have a few questions. 1.) Which significant texts mention 'Dusht-Daman?' 2.) What is the traditional Nihung Singh perspective on 'Dusht-Daman?' 3.) Often esoteric scholars taxonomise Chandi as being an inherent mystical force which is employed to battle against inherent vices. How does the tale of Dusht-Daman reconcile with such a view? 4.) Does Singh originally mean tiger? 5.) How do we explain to a layman, who perceives transmigration as being repulsive, why the Gurus went through such a state? 6.) It is said that the Nihungs evolved through the four ages, it is also said they fought during these ages. Any more info on this? 7.) Whhere does it mention Nihung Singh's and their primary sojourn in Chandi Di Vaar?

Although Bhai Nand Lal's works did not revolve around any political evolution.

Bhai Nand Lal is known to have done something similar. The compositions of Bhai Nand Lal are known for their approach of contextualising the Sikh tradition using Islamic vocabulary. In the Zindagînamâ the poet takes the notion one step further when he adopts the Sikh tradition into Islamic cosmology. A famous hadith of the Prophet says that: By Him in Whose Power is the life of Muhammad, without doubt, my Ummah [panth] will be divided into 73 groups. [Amongst these] only one will enter Paradise. For Bhai Nand Lal, the Gurmukh panth is the one and pious group that will be liberated and he encourages the remaining 72 groups of Islam to seek shelter at their feet ‘Without any doubt, we should consider this group who is beyond the cycle of birth and death, to be the shelter of the 72 groups [of Islam]'. In this way, the Gurmukh panth is absorbed into Islamic cosmology and turned upside down. Other, but more subtle references are made to the Quran. A famous Quran’ic verse says that Allah is closer to the believers than even their main artery. Bhai Nand Lal makes a subtle reference to this verse in his section on the praise of devotion. Approaching the Sufis, the poet writes “When the True Master is nearer to you than your main artery O ignorant person! Then why are you roaming around jungles and the wilderness? When someone who is familiar and well conversant with The Path becomes your Guide and Master, you will be able to achieve solitude within the company of noble people.”

Please do it, pretty please!!!! My dastaar is always loose. Just think of me as your shagird.
