Harmless Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Dear All, It seems that the Sikh community is vulneralbe to charlatans who pose as Gurus to mislead innocents. For example if I were to dress in saffon coloured cloak, wear a tilak on my forehead and look the part. I can then easily manipulate people, I can ever sell my own special miracle amrit and so forth. I can use the Sikh scriptures and incorporate verses off Gita, bit of Koran and mix bibical teachings within that. I can then devise my rules on marriages and birth. And hey presto! I have started a new religion and have mislead the Sikh. Sikhs as a religious group in my opinion have become vulnerble to Cultish Gurus and (bhed chaad) What do u guys think? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalvir Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Did u also know that there were people in India called NIrankaris, who call themselves Sikhs but believe in a human guru. Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale told the Sikhs to be aware of these people and we must, we must also be aware of peopel trying to convert Sikhs. Guru Nanak says that "My path is of love and Sacrifice" and it must stay that way. We must all be amritdhari and be part of God' army Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 ^ Fundamental principle of Sikhi is acceptance. I don't "believe" in their path either, but I respect them (well, Namdharis anyway) and hope that their pathway leads them to spiritual fulfillment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akalbir Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 It's not the fact that others want to convert Sikhs that we should be aware of. It's the reason Sikhs are vulnerable to conversion that we should be aware of. It's their lack of faith. All of us in these forums tha take the time to discuss things and learn from each other should be actively doing what we can to enliven the Sikh Panth, starting with our communities. It's this that will do more good than keepimg watch for who is trying to convert whom. Sikhs first need to finish their conversion to Sikhi. akalbir 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeetho! Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Sikhs are vulnerable? if u believe in your faith - know and respect other faiths but still know where you stand how can you be vulnerable? we had warnings passed out in our gurdwara last year about a man who was dressed as a sant who was converting people (they said by black magic) and we were warned that he would wipe out sikhism! - None of which happened (obviously) but what i saw was that the sikh community held together and didnt become vulnerable to this mans ways! - some did but not alot. So maybe it depends on location? and when you say sikh - do u mean actual sikhs/people trying to learn about their faith - or people who are born into sikh households? because i dont think anyone who has strong faith is easily mislead just my opinion 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
