i have copies of some hindu scriptures like the gita, ramayan, upanishads etc. i just bought them basically to learn about them.

in my top self i keep zafarnama bani, jaap sahib bani and shri dasam granth. its right at the top above head level.

im not sure where to place these hindu granth though! couple of shelves down i keep all my other random books about art, history, magazines etc. and thats where iv stacked all the hindu granths i have. its just the other day i was thinking should i keep these granths with more respect rather than just stacked like any other book!

Agreed any religions granths should be treated with respect , do not put them as high as our own but sucham and respect is what is required .Perhaps seperate a higher shelf from your general books  for this .

I think Nirmala sikhs will be able to tell you how they keep these dharmik granths and gitas. Unfortunately sikhawareness site is down as there would probably be more knowledgeable people on there for this certain matter.

Just keep them in another higher shelf with a ramala covering them.

Wasn't talking about Granths, What I said was we should try keeping both of those things seperate, and not make them dirty, (in general). For the record, anything with knowledge should be respected to some extent, (at least that's how I was raised).

Two birds one stone.  Why so quick to suggest the gita Vedas ramayan should be kept in ramala? Did you not see the comment of the original poster keeping Sri Dasam Granth Sahib on the shelf?  Doesn't Dasam Granth Sahib ji deserve to be attended to and tell the original poster to keep this Bani of the Guru in a ramala?  I was waiting to see your response on this topic, hoping you would say the right thing but as expected you never surprise me to not stand up for Gurus Bani.  You only use Gurbani in the wrong way to prove your Lord Vishnu didn't fall victim to ego.  As long as I am on this site and Guru Sahib wills, you will not be able accomplish your goal.

Whaatt? You are misunderstanding me Singh ji. When I said ramala I meant it for all the dharmic granths that they own, Singh ji. 

Don't make it worse, you state to raise the granths to a higher shelf, when he already had said dasam bani was at the top shelf.  In no way we're you referring to  dasam BANI.

And you quoted jacfsing2 where he referred to the Gita Vedas and Ramayan as books and you corrected him by saying they are not books but granths. BTW,  they are books never equal to sri Guru granth sahib ji.

Just keep all books in a clean and tidy place, Knowledge is knowledge no matter what the source. Just keep any form of Bani covered and in the highest shelf possible. Make sure the place is scrubbed and disinfected, and keep regular care of the bani Saroops, both physically and also reciting as much of it as possible.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
