The application of Shiva was employed as a subtle dictum to liberate the stratified spheres of Hindu society from their xenophobic parallels.

-bot...Similarities between Nihang Panth and Shiva:<br /><br />-both wear Aad Chand (Nihangs wear it over Ajna Chakra on their Dumalla, Shiva wears in his hair)<br /><br />-Shiva is the Lord of Hashish, Nihangs partake in consumption of Sukha<br /><br />-Shiva is the Lord of Martial Arts, Nihang Singhs were expected to learn these Vidya. Many Sikhs nowadays believe that by merely carrying a shastar/kirpan it makes them a warrior. If you don't know how to wield your weapon effectively against an attacker, it is safer to not carry it at all.<br /><br />-Dasam Granth contains "Chandi di vaar". Who is Chandi's consort? Shiva. Therefore Chandi's Vaar can be looked at as a Nihangs praise to his Divine consort (Shakti/Chandi). Shastar pooja is Chandi pooja.<br /><br />look at the top (3 prongs) of the Khanda (Symbol) - this is the same shape of the Trishul which Shiva carries. <br /><br />Many mainstream Sikhs nowadays have developed an attitude of non-tolerance and almost a borderline terrorist mindset where they are trying to incriminate anyone who doesn't believe in their narrow point of view and opinions.<br /><br />Sprituality is about experiencing Divinity, not about making rules and incriminating everyone who is different from you.<br /><br />Guru-VaheAcenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541060676898473404.post-78095498265436104152009-10-02T03:48:42.363-07:002009-10-02T03:48:42.363-07:00Gurfateh

"a" makes the meaning as a tendency of doing good or welfare.(in Hindi Praviti or tendency is taken in as feminine gender).(Shri Dasam Guru Darbar, last part of Chandi Charitra).<br /><br />So it is more for the quality then guise.<br /><br />regards<br /><br />vd Singhvijaydeep Singhnoreply@blogger.com
