Dera Sucha Sauda -Sikh conflict in India

[Guest]

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> Even other deras and groups like Radha Soamis and many Nirankaris and Namdharis are not thought of as a Sikh eventhough they read Guru Granth Sahib., and try to follow Guru Granth Sahib's teaching but without Rahit. They are called "SAhijdhari" sikhs.'<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

And what makes some Sikhs more pure Sikhs than the others?

And what exactly do you mean by ‘Rahit’? If you meant ‘Rahit Maryada’ then it is The Sikh Code of Conduct concieved by the Shromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee. If you meant ‘Rahit Nama’ i.e. A manual of conduct for Khalsa Sikhs. There are a number of them by various Sikhs dating back to the eighteenth century so how does one come to the conclusion it is 100% right?


Earlier you said ‘A Sikh is suppose to be a Saint and Soldier’.

Recent violence makes most people think there are only soldiers and hardly any Saints left in Punjab. <!--emo&--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

While we agree that the whole recent problem may have been orchestrated by Congress (please read my earlier post that I posted 2-3 days back)…but having said this, it must be also said here that a lot of Indians are not exactly amused by the continuous slightly 'over the top' reaction displayed by some Sikhs recently.
