But, I don't agree that Sikh and Khalsa are the same. Sikh simply means one who learns. Khalsa means pure one. In Guru Nanak's time, he was trying to untie people from their rituals of religion and their judgements against other religions. He said "There is no Hindu, there is no Muslim". Guru Nanak was just trying to get us to see the big picture - WE ARE ALL HUMAN, forget about all this complicated religion stuff. He wasn't starting a religion. Then Guru Gobind Singh formalized the lifestyle of the Sant Sipahi (soldier saint) and gave the Amrit and made the Khalsa to bring everyone together so that they could stand up to the invading armies and defend the Khyber Pass (mountain pass going from Afganistan to Punjab [now Pakistan]) which would hence defend all of India. Now, by God's will we are a religion, but we have to remember the basics - WE ARE ALL HUMAN! Also there is not only one way to liberation, orn one right way. Any Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Jain whatever can be liberated from their beliefs and lifestyle. I, probably along with most of you readers have probably just found a love for the Sikh and Khalsa ways of life.<BR/><BR/>-Comment to be Continued-<BR/>(My ride to go to lunch is waiting)Himmat Singh Khalsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997543440621393003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19438971.post-1139419741235539202006-02-08T09:29:00.000-08:002006-02-08T09:29:00.000-08:00What are the rehits of a sikh?pritham rehit eh jo,...What are the rehits of a sikh?<BR/><BR/>pritham rehit eh jo, khande kee pahul cchake<BR/><BR/>the FIRST rehit of a sikh is to take amrit<BR/><BR/>"paanch singh amrit jo deevai, taa(n) ko sir dhar chhak phun laevai, phun mil pan rehit jo bhanke, taa(n) ko man man mehi driR kar raakhai"<BR/><BR/>pretty much, follow the rehit given to you by the 5 singhs that give you amrit..<BR/><BR/><BR/>"Gursikh rehit suno rae meet, parbathae outh kar hith cheeth, vahiguroo pun mantar su jaap, kar ishnaan paRai jap jaap, keertan katha sunai har jaas, in mai name jo karaahi, so sikh amaraa phunee majahi"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19438971.post-1139419076315265512006-02-08T09:17:00.000-08:002006-02-08T09:17:00.000-08:00Sikh nahin pyara meri reht pyariu wrote that wrong...Sikh nahin pyara meri reht pyari<BR/><BR/>u wrote that wrong, it should be<BR/><BR/>"Rehit Piaaree Mujh Ko, Sikh Piaaraa Naahee"<BR/><BR/>which means the rehit of a sikh is what i love, not the sikh themselves<BR/><BR/>other lines that show the same point are<BR/><BR/>Rehni Rehit soee Sikh mera, oh <BR/>sahib, mai us kaa chera<BR/><BR/>The one who stays in rehit is my sikh, hes my sahib (master) im his chela<BR/><BR/><BR/>rehit binaa nai sikh khaavai<BR/><BR/>One without rehit cannot call themselves a sikh<BR/><BR/>rehit binaa dar jhotta khavai<BR/>Without rehit u'll get beatings in the court/darbar of god<BR/><BR/>rehit binaa sukh kubhoon na laihai<BR/>without rehit you'll never ever find happinessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
