try doing some work for yourself instead of asking everyone else to do the thinking and spoon feed you... Gurbani states explicitly , repeatedly that the person who has knowledge of Akal Purakh becomes Akal Purakh i.e. enters sach khand  . There are not two Akal Purakhs only one so that  means all those who contributed to Guru Granth Sahib ji were one with the Creator , were/are the Creator thus one and the same ... Ad sach, jugad sach, hai bhi sach, Nanak hosi bhi sach  .

 

Love it.. Such gymnastics.. It's not that difficult really just requires some discipline of mind.. The very definition of a sikh in many ways

I think you should try and spend some time understanding the poetic form.. It is written in poetic form to stop people taking things literally but to encourage contemplation.. I suppose guru sahibs best efforts we still don't understand 

there was nothing poetic about it, he literally said Guru Nanak Dev Ji melted into thin air.  Bhai Gurdas Ji's poetic verses are kept separate from his historical ones, you would know that if you read them.  The prose used here was literal, and the evidence is in the proverbial pudding as it describes the journey, the encounter and the delegation. 

The same thing is written in Bhai Mani Singh Ji's janamsakhis and Bhai Bala Jis ones too I believe.

I'm sorry you think Akal Purakh is some kind of mister God in a cloud somewhere ? it /they permeate throughout the creation , nothing exists without Akal Purakh ...not time ...not space ...nothing

Came across this quote and it's apt for those that doubt Sikh history when it doesn't fit with their blinkered views.

ਕਿਨੀ ਅਫਸੋਸ ਵਾਲੀ ਗੱਲ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਲਿਖੇ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਤੇ ਯਕੀਨ ਨਹੀਂ, ਮਗਰ ਜੇ ਕੋਈ ਮਗ਼ਰਿਬ ਤੋਂ ਮੁਤਾਸਿਰ ਹੋਇਆ ਫੋਕਾ ਵਿਦਵਾਨ ਕੁਝ ਕਹੈ ਦਵੇ ਤਾਂ ਅਸੀਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਰਚੇ ਹੋਏ ਇਤਿਹਾਸਿਕ ਗ੍ਰੰਥਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਸੀਨੇ ਬਸੀਨੇ ਤੋਂ ਚਲੀ ਆ ਰਹੀ ਪਰੰਪਰਾਵਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਰੱਦ ਕਰ ਦੇਂਦੇ ਹਾਂ| ਸਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਆਪ ਤੇ ਬਹਤ ਅਫਸੋਸ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ|ਇਸੇ ਵਾਸਤੇ ਤਾਂ ਸਿਖਾਂ ਦਾ ਇਨਾ ਬੇੜਾ ਗਰਕਿਆ ਹੈ|

People literally died for them, look at how much of our history was lost during 84, the attack of Anandpur, the Ghallugharas.  I think the whole "appeal to the athiest" crowd are the ones doing the most destruction. I say this as I was one of them.

Nothing like a good scolding from Gurpita and the loving embrace of Gurmata to put you on the right track huh?

Nevermind. Google translate did way better than I expected. 

"It is regrettable that we are not convinced in our written history, but if someone forgets a fate, then some scholars say something, then we reject the traditional texts and chestnut traditions we have created. We should feel sorry for ourselves. That is why Sikhs have got so big a boat"

Not perfect obviously, heh but pretty good.

    • 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.
