Bhai Sahib Pal 07,
These stories have many meanings if you ask any Sanskrit scholars. They are still trying to decode them. There are many people who use these stories to defame men. Ahilya's stories have been used by feminist groups to show how men in Vedic times tortured their wives. Please see following thread on Yahoo http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090517022243AAvplCN … Confused people exist in every religion and the ones who just take words literally. Guruji trying to teach us to maintain good character through these verses and he is definitely not asking us to go find the stories.
I know of ten other variation of this same story, so that will make Giani Gurbachan Singh Bhindrawale wrong? You have used Giani Gurbachan Singh Bhindrawale's example but you forgot the time of his lecture. Gianis of his caliber were aware of sensitivities of people and audience. They always maintained the real essence of verses and sometimes used words accepted by population of their time. If we go with your logic then I guess “Kooker” for dog used by Bhagat kabir may not be right? He should have used “Koota” instead ….
Also, if you want to impose your own views on us then why even start this thread? You have asked for our opinion and when some of us tried to give you one, then you are so eager to prove us wrong. You should not forget that Sikhism has originated in Kalyug and as per mythology “Kalyug” has done bigger penance than any other Yuga... This story of "Ahilya" is from Satyuga which you may be thinking of a yuga which was perfect..
Let's try to learn through Guruji's words and do not get into “Waad-Vivad”...
