There is no Theism or Deism in Sikh Dharma as taught by Guru Nanak & Yogi Bhajan

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam,

This is correct: There is no Theism or Deism in Sikh Dharma as taught

by Guru Nanak & Yogi Bhajan. So the fear of being tamed by egotistic

celestial deities is not an issue either. As the Tibetan Dharma

points out (in the deeper teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha) the

Celestial Deities are as real a class of sentient beings as the human

and animal classes. AND these deities are as equally bound and

limited by ego as any other of the six classes. From this, we also

recognize (as conveyed by Siri Singh Sahib Yogiji) that Shakyamuni

Buddha said " It is equally impossible to prove that God exists or God

doesn't exist. " At the same time, " God's existence " is really not at

all relevant to the process of Human Enlightenment.

 

The Sikh bows to Infinite Transparent Wisdom (Wahe Guru), and it is

the Guru who delivers us to " G.O.D. " In his own words, Yogiji also

stated very clearly in a Los Angeles lecture, that " The only place

that God " exists " is in the dictionary. " In other words, " existence "

is a very tricky concept, and in many ways over rated in its presumed

importance.

 

Neither was Yogiji an " A-theist. " He wasn't against anything. As I

took his point, the issue about " G.O.D. " will make a lot more sense

AFTER we're enlightened (through the agency of Wahe Guru, which is

tasteless, odorless, colorless, and Desireless). Being desireless,

the Guru doesn't worry about anything, and neither should we. This is

the ultimate seal that's invoked in saying " Wahe Guru ji ka Khalsa,

Wahe Guru ji ki fateh. " That's a yoga, too. Hang your hat (or

turban) on Wahe Guru and it will be there, waiting there on the " other

side " when your days under the sun have completed. Don't worry about

God and God won't have to worry about you.

 

Personally I've never found this UFO, master seed, super race,

manipulating humanity theory very interesting or fruitful. It

dissolves quiet easily and disappears in a beautiful hot cup of yogi

tea, as I meditate on Wahe Guru.

 

many Blessings,

Krishna Singh
