All of us are competitive in nature in good and bad ways! Which one you likes?

All of us are competitive in nature in good and bad ways! Which one you likes?

Competition is one of the healthiest trait in human beings to succeed which prevent us from becoming unemployed and beggar which no one likes. 

But keep in mind that sometimes our sense of competition make us drag the deserving person behind us and that is not healthy because it is the other side of ugly face of competition that induce greed, jealousy, frustration, anger, hatred in ourselves to hurt others on one hand and induce negative energy in our body like eddy current in conductors to make us further slow and sick.

So compete with best of your energy by focusing on destination and not the competitor. You may be slower than some but you never know it because you never acknowledged them except your target.

A little funny joke: Since tortoise never looked at his competitor and competed with best of its energy! Tortoise was the winner and not its competitor which is more than 100 x faster than it.

NO ONE THOUGHT ABOUT HIS NEEDS OF LOVE AND CARE.

NO ONE THOUGHT ABOUT HIS NEEDS OF LOVE AND CARE.

There are reasons for our sufferings:

First: Our choices of our thoughts and actions based on our knowledge and experience not only decide our fate and destiny but also of our loved ones, children and others.

Second: Our faith in One Supreme Power who created everyone and not just who created Muslim or Christian or Sikh or Jewish or Communist and treating each other fairly, equally, respectfully especially others who belongs to different religions.

Third:  Our empathy towards others regardless of their faith.

I really feel sorry for this little soul who is devoid of parents love by someone who is either  hard core killer without heart or senseless religious fanatic without life.

Our problem of mankind is that we are so hypocrite and rigid in our beliefs and superiority feelings without much room for empathy towards others.

We talk about love, peace and salvation for everyone who practices our belief but we talk about hate, revenge and hell for everyone who practices beliefs other than ours. (This may not be true for everyone but at least it is not false either).

We may show our respect for others in inter-faith forums and seminars held nationally or internationally but at the bottom of the heart we are prejudice and non-empathetic towards others with different faiths.

This is the root cause of wars other than universal gap between rich & poor in every country.

One Supreme Power - has numerous names like ALLAH - GOD - WAHEGURU..... but HE love us all regardless of our faiths and beliefs.

Biggest reason behind mankind suffering in present time is our Arrogance and sense of superiority over others.

I mean that majority Muslims feel superior to Christians and vice versa. Rest is manipulations and diplomatic statements.

 If both switch to humbleness and Love for each other, this world would turn into heaven in no time. Same is true for other faiths as well.

As Guru Nanak said:

"Manas ki jaath sabhbhay akai pehchanbo" from Sri Guru Granth Sahib
Guru Nanak means that "Recognize all human beings as One race"

Guru Nanak said "Hum nahin Changhay Burah nahin koey".
Guru Nanak means that "I am not superior to others and others are not inferior to me".

Once Muslims and Christians start thinking and acting like that, there would be no conflict between each other.

The only solution to peace and love is respect and empathy for others and someone got to start it.

Sikhism & Islam

 Bani Concerning Islam

Similarities

 Fatherhood of God
Gurus believed that not only is God our Father, but He is Mother, Brother, Husband and Friend.

"Thou art my father, Thou art my mother, Thou art my kinsman and Thou art my brother. In all the places Thou art my protector. Then why should I feel fear and anxiety?" (Guru Arjan, Majh, pg. 103)

 Bismillah of the Quran and the Mul Mantra of the Guru Granth Sahib are both dedicated to One Merciful God and are placed at the beginning of every new chapter. In both the nature of God transcends all concepts of time.

"God is one. His name is True. He is the Creator. His is without fear. He is inimical to none. His existence is unlimited by time. He is beyond the cycles of birth and death, self existent and can be realized through the grace of the Guru." (Guru Nanak)

 Emphasis on the Will of God in Quran is similar to the idea of Hukam in Guru Granth Sahib.

"Everyone is under the Hukam of the Lord; there is none outside it." (Guru Nanak, Japji)

 Theory of creation of the world by the mere will of God.

"The night and day, the Lord created, for the world to do the deeds. Through the Guru's instruction, the mind is illuminated and the darkness is dispelled. In His will, He creates all and pervades all the woods and grass blades." (Guru Amar Das, pg. 948)

 Encouragement of alms for the needy and poor

 Condemnation of idol worship.

 Condemnation of asceticism.

Differences

 Sikhism does not believe that any Holy Book takes precedence over all others or any religions prophet is the final messenger of God.

"Say not that the Vedas and Muslim books are false. False is he, who reflects not on them." (Bhagat Kabir, Parbhati, pg. 1350)

"The followers of the Vedas, the Bible and the Koran, standing at Your Door, meditate on You. Uncounted are those who fall at Your Door." (Guru Arjan, pg. 518)

"And many have been orthodox amongst the Muslims, and men of miracles, and Ashvini Kumaras, and the part-incarnations of Vishnu, all O all went the way of death. And many were the prophets and spiritual guides, yea, countless were they: they sprang from the dust and to dust they returned." (Guru Gobind Singh, Akal Ustati)

 Purpose of the Holy Book

"Thus We have revealed the Koran in the Arabic tongue and proclaimed in it warnings and threats so that they may take heed and guard themselves against evil." (20:114 Quran)

"Upon this Plate, three things have been placed: Truth, Contentment and Contemplation. The Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam, the Name of our Lord and Master, has been placed upon it as well; it is the Support of all. One who eats it and enjoys it shall be saved. This thing can never be forsaken; keep this always and forever in your mind. The dark world-ocean is crossed over, by grasping the Feet of the Lord; O Nanak, it is all the extension of God." (Guru Arjan, Mundavanee, pg. 1429)

 Sikhism believes that people of different religions are equally capable of achieving salvation while still following their own religion.

"Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship shall become one of their number. Allah does not guide the wrongdoers." (5:49, Quran)

"Mohammed is Allah's apostle. Those who follow him are ruthless to the unbelievers but merciful to one another." (48:29, Quran)

"When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. If they repent and take to prayer and pay the alms-tax, let them go their way. Allah is forgiving and merciful." (9:4, Quran)

"There is a garden, in which so many plants have grown. They bear the Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam as their fruit. Consider this, O wise one, by which you may attain the state of Nirvaanaa. All around this garden are pools of poison, but within it is the Ambrosial Nectar, O Siblings of Destiny. There is only one gardener who tends it. He takes care of every leaf and branch. He brings all sorts of plants and plants them there. They all bear fruit - none is without fruit." (Guru Arjan, Asa, pg. 385)

"The temple or the mosque are the same, the Hindu worship or the Musalman prayer are the same; all men are the same; it is through error they appear different. Deities, demons, Yakshas, heavenly singers, Musalmans and Hindus adopt the customary dress of their different countries. All men have the same eyes, the same ears, the same body, the same build, a compound of earth, air, fire, and water. Allah and Abhekh are the same, the Purans and the Quran are the same; they are all alike; it is the one God who created all. The Hindu God and the Muhammadan God are the same; let no man even by mistake suppose there is a difference." (Guru Gobind Singh, Akal Ustat, pg. 275)

 Sri Guru Granth Sahib places greater emphasis on love of God as the main motivation for man rather than fear of God.

"Truly, none will take heed but the wise: those who keep faith with Allah and do not break their pledge; who join together what He has bidden to be united; who fear their Lord and dread the terrors of Judgement-day; who for the sake of Allah endure with fortitude..." (13:18, Quran)

"Allah's reward is great. Therefore fear Him with all your hearts and be attentive, obedient, and charitable. That will be best for you." (64:13, Quran)

"Within my heart, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, and celebrate the Word of the Lord's Shabad. The Lord Himself is pervading and permeating the world; so fall in love with Him!" (Guru Nanak, pg. 790)

"Remembering Him in meditation, one abides in peace; one becomes happy, and suffering is ended. Celebrate, make merry, and sing God's Glories. Forever and ever, surrender to the True Guru." (Guru Arjan, Asa, pg. 386)

 Sikhism does not believe in the idea of Gods name being only those authorized in a religious tradition or Holy Book.

"Many are Thy Names and infinite Thine forms and it cannot be told how many merits Thou hast." (Guru Nanak, Asa, pg. 358)

 Non-Sikhs are allowed to visit and enter the most sacred shrine of the religion, The Golden Temple.

"Believers, know that the idolaters are unclean. Let them not approach the Sacred Mosque after this year is ended" (9:26, Quran)

"Blessed is the place, and blessed are those who dwell there, where God's Name is meditated upon. The sermons and songs of God's praises are sung there and there is nothing but peace, poise and tranquillity." (Guru Arjan, Raga Bilaval, pg. 816)

"If the Lord Allah lives only in the mosque, then to whom does the rest of the world belong? …The God of the Hindus lives in the southern lands, and the God of the Muslims lives in the west. So search in your heart - look deep into your heart of hearts; this is the home and the place where God lives." (Bhagat Kabir, pg. 1349)

 Attitude towards women. Sikh women are allowed to lead congregations of men at the temple or administer all religious ceremonies involving either men or women.

"Man have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them." (4:34, Quran)

"We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. We make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. When one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. Why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? The woman is born from woman; there is none without her. Only the One True Lord is without woman" (Guru Nanak, Var Asa, pg. 473)

 Sikhism does not believe in women wearing veils.

"Stay, stay, O daughter-in-law - do not cover your face with a veil. In the end, this shall not bring you even half a shell." (Bhagat Kabir, Asa, pg. 484)

 Sikhism does not believe in fasting or pilgrimages.

"The mind is not softened by fasting or austerities. Nothing else is equal to worship of the Lord's Name." (Guru Nanak Dev, Ramkali, pg. 905)

"The pilgrimage to shrines, fasting, cleanliness and self-mortification are not of any avail, nor are the rituals, religious ceremonies and hollow adoration's. Deliverance, O! Nanak! is in the devotional service of God. Through duality the mortal is engrossed in worldliness. (Guru Nanak, Sri Rag, pg. 75)

 Sikhism rejects the killing of any animal evoking a prayer or by slow death. Muslim Halal meat is forbidden for Sikhs.

"Yet holding the knife, the world they butcher. Wearing blue the rulers approval they seek; With money derived from mlechhas the Puranas they worship. Goats slaughtered over the unapproved Muslims texts they eat." (Guru Nanak, Raga Asa, pg. 472)

 Sikhism rejects the idea of circumcision.

"Because of the love of woman, circumcision is done; I don't believe in it, O Siblings of Destiny. If God wished me to be a Muslim, it would be cut off by itself. If circumcision makes one a Muslim, then what about a woman?" (Bhagat Kabir, Asa, pg. 477)

More I read Mr. Gandhi, more I see an idealistic..politically naive Gandhi...a day dreamer of Utopian society

The-Destiny-of-Poor! Destiny-of-Woman! Destiny-of-People!

More I read Mr. Gandhi, more I see an idealistic..politically naive Gandhi...a day dreamer of Utopian society.  A society which is even hard to portray in a novel. He was also a paradox and hypocrite. On one hand he was dreaming about Self-Governance with complete control in every individual hands and yet talking about village as a unit which has self sustaining and self managing capabilities. 

But he confused himself somewhere in between individual's independence and dependence on villagers. To run a village it implies at least a very basic level of coordination between individuals of the village. Without which there will be a law of jungle unless as dreamed by Gandhi every individual being as Lord Rama or Lord Krishna...I am sorry Gandhi was against the sword power of Guru Gobind Singh...obviously was against the Archery power of Lord Rama and Chakra power of Lord Krishna.

 May be he thought individuals will acquire the power of Mahatama Budha overnight so that no individual would be intimidated by other individuals of village.

 There may be a slight confusion about his paradoxical and hypocritical nature.

 Let me take an example to make it further clear: Once Jehovah witness came to my door and I invited them inside. Asked if they would like to drink something. They said they were fine and thanked for my hospitality. Without wasting their time they asked me if they can share some information about God. I was clean shaven at that time but I had strong faith in Sikhism.

 So they started explaining to me that soon time will come when Jesus Christ will be the King of whole earth. I asked them that same sex people are asking for equal rights to marriage and what is your take on it. They without any hesitation or doubt told me that they do not take part in politics and defense forces at all. 

So I asked them if you are telling me that Jesus will be the king and his kingdom will be a heaven and in other words all citizens of earth would be free of evil spirits. They said yes they all will be but with the grace of Jesus Christ. So I said lets for sake of further debate lets assume that it is true. I continued and asked out of curiosity that you folks mentioned that Jesus will be the King. They all agreed and said Yes that is true.

 So I further asked if Jesus would be the King then obviously Jesus would have a kingdom. They said Yes whole earth would be his kingdom. So I further asked if he is going to be King of whole Earth then what's the point being a king if he does not have ministers and army. They said of course Jesus would have ministers and army. 

So I asked them if Jesus is going to run his kingdom and you are satisfied with having his rule and ministries and defense forces, then what is stopping you from participating in the today's political system to bring reforms for the benefits of human beings...especially if people like you who are so concerned about the salvation of human beings don't participate in democratic system then who else we expect to legislate law and order for us..the devils or the saints like you.

 They left my home without answering me.

 Gandhi ji is no different than Jehovah witness to me. They are dreaming about perfect society but waiting for Jesus to come and make them perfect.... Gandhi ji was in same boat as Jehovah. Both dreams about Perfect Society by magic and without defense forces...without sword and without participating in politics.

 Dalai Lama is another hypocrite like Gandhi and Jehovah, who preach love and Ahinsa (peace) but expect US forces to enforce peace and love in Tibet.

Mahatama Gandhi's discriminatory soul and thinking is root cause of India's demise of democracy and justice system for poor people of India.

The-Destiny-of-Poor! Destiny-of-Woman! Destiny-of-People!

Mahatama Gandhi's discriminatory soul and thinking is root cause of India's demise of democracy and justice system for poor people of India. 

Satnam Singh Sidhu 

Even though people of India suffered for ages from the bullying, tyranny and greed of control over people, resources and wealth, but we had someone to blame for it:

We blamed for Caste system to mainly Brahmins (Educators) and Kashteriyas (Government) and partly Businesscaste (Vaishya), even though Indians got some relief by combined efforts of Budhism, Moguls, Khalsa and British yet Indians are struggling to brake the social chains of caste system with the help of law and religious reforms.

But democracy by itself is to be blamed for creating a wider gap of resources and wealth distribution between poor and rich.

Today Brahmins and Workers are equally suffering except crooked dishonest Politicians and Greedy and Cunning Business houses and corporations.

Today poor and lower middle class is not limited to fourth class of old Caste system and rich does not belong to only Kashteriyas(businesscaste).

Now challenge to poor is not only from old rusted caste system in Indian society, which was perpetrated by upper class Brahmins and Kashteriyas, but mainly from Crooked Politician and Bureaucrats and Greedy, crooked and cheat business houses and corporations which have tendency to monopolize business activities to maximize their own profits without passing on to workers with the help of crooked politicians and bureaucrats.

Today majority Politicians, Bureaucrats and Business houses and corporation are main culprits for suffering of ordinary people of India and rest of world. 

India is almost free from caste system perpetrators and lack of education and lack of wealth and resources are the only reason people are still clinging to old evil caste system by themselves.

Neither Brahmins nor anyone else is responsible for this evil anymore.

It is poverty and illiteracy that eclipse the equality and progress of Indians.

Moreover Democracy has failed to control the crooked politicians and crooked business houses and corporations to cater to the needs of every humanbeings on this earth.

Poor has become more poor and rich has become more rich in our era of democracy.

Don't take me wrong, neither I am communist and nor imperialist.

In last decade Canada got twice as expensive as before without proportional increase in family income. India got more than ten times more expensive than before like Canada. 

Rest of world suffers as well according to their circumstances as analysed by financial pundits based on complex, complicated and rich inclined INFLATION RATE which is hard to make any sense for ordinary humanbeings worldwide whether it is democratic countries, communist countries or alien countries. 

India is still struggling to reach the real democracy and may take some years or decades to reach its full potential. 

It is quite possible Indians might not care about my opinion about failure of democracy worldwide to cater the needs of poor workers and poor, 

In my opinion, people of India would be much more ahead of world in near future If they reinvent or reform current democratic system before jumping into the freedom struggle against corrupt, crooked, cruel, tyrant political retime of India to streamline the business houses and corporations for the direct and real benefits of hard working Indians. 

People sacrificed their lives for freedom from Britishers with and without arms in a hope to give bright future to their future generations but both Indian and Pakistani are suffering far more than British regime. 

People of Punjab suffered the greatest hardship and damages by loosing Khalsa Empire to British which was established after long struggles and sacrifices of Sikhs, Muslims and Hindus. 

The Khalsa Regime was based on true and most modern democratic values and principles established by Guru Nanak Sahib to Guru Gobind Singh with Devine sacrifices of Two Gurus and four sons of Guru Gobind Singh and countless Singhs, countless Muslim Sikhs and countless Hindu Sikhs and countless mothers who did not bow to tyrants and invaders and preferred sacrificing their children to be cut into pieces in front of their eyes. 

I did not get it how Mahatama Gandhi failed to acknowledge these sacrifices and did not refrain from denouncing the greatest warrior, leader, martyr, socialist, democrat, father of social and religious freedom for free India.

Had Mahatama and his associates simply been respectful to Guru Gobind Singh and his democratic values, principles and practices for freedom of humanity and spirit to fight discrimination, atrocities and inequalities with dialog, self sacrifice and standing against enemy to fight regardless of the strength and power of enemy of democratic freedom of humanbeings, the sacrifices of people of India would have been fruitful to establish democracy free of discrimination and hatred.

Mahatama instead of paying respect to Guru denounced Guru and paved the path of discrimination and hatred against those who follow Guru. Even further a circulation was issued by Mahatama's right hand to keep secret eyes on his followers.

Mahatama's secretive hatred for Guru Gobind Singh and his Khalsa was directly responsible for division of India and Pakistan and innocent killings of hundreds of thousands of people during 1947 and killings of innocent people in 1984 in Delhi, Punjab and rest of India by his followers. 

Mahatama Gandhi's discriminatory soul and thinking is root cause of India's demise of democracy and justice system for poor people of India. 

India will continue to suffer as long as Indians do not pay back long awaited respect to Guru Gobind Singh and the sacrifices of his followers who were Singhs, Muslims and Hindus.

As it is clear in Khalsa Empire HINDUS, MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS, SIKHS AND ALL OTHER FAITH COMMUNITIES were living together and contributing to establish and strengthen multicultural Khalsa regime.

If Hindu, Sikhs, Muslim, Christians and all other faith communities were living and working together in Khalsa Empire with complete freedom and free will then there was no reason for anyone to refuse to live together willingly after independence. 

It was Mahatama's hidden discriminatory and biased nature which was sensed by Muslims and pushed them for separate country. 

Demolition of Babri Masjid, Gujrat riots are clear offspring of Mahatama's psyche and his followers.

1984 SIKHS GENOCIDE IN INDIA

I am sorry to say all this which will be hard to swallow for most Mahatama followers and I entirely blame only those Indians who are followers of Mahatama Gandhi's controversial theory of Ahinsa (peace),

Had Mahatama been asked to sacrifice his life for India only then real Mahatama would have been exposed about his real capabilities and strengths.

He enjoyed being the leader of Indian people and enjoyed his command over congress and freedom fighters without arms. He knew British have rules and regulations and they punish according to law.

Army and spirit to fight the enemy is must to preserve the peace and without army and spirit to fight nations get slavery.

The above said contradicts with King Ashoka's principles and Mahatama Gandhi's principles yet our national flag of India have emblem of Ashoka in the middle and Mahatama Gandhi's photo in every Indian justice courts and probably in Parliament, Prime minister and President's office.

One of my Canadian friend asked me couple weeks ago that why Sikhs don't recognise Mahatama Gandhi as messenger of peace as perceived by rest of world. 

I told him that the person who can not appreciate the sacrifices of Guru Gobind Singh with respect can never earn my respect. 

It is not necessary for me to practice another faith but I can certainly respect that faith if it has common elements in it similar to mine. 

Jesus Christ sacrificed his life for people and it was a great sacrifice by him. 

Rani Jhansi, Maharana Partap, Shiva ji fought for their rights and independence and who can deny that.

Adopting realistic values and principles that adheres to truth and honesty are necessary for building strength and courage in poor people to fight corrupt and cruel political regime in India which is 100 Times harder than British regime to fight.

Only a real Mahatama would be able to achieve that with the grace of God and blessings of Guru. It may be Anna Hazare, Arvind Kejriwal, Swami Ramdev or any ordinary Indian. 

But this fight will be 100 times more tough and bloody than British fight.
