<div>What is dance and its relevance according to the Guru Granth Sahib? Are we humans the only ones that dance? Is dance a taboo for Gursikhs, condemning all who engage in such activity? Are there exceptions to what is considered proper dance for appropriate occasions? When Sikhs congregate in religious services or pray privately, they do not clap their hands or move their feet, or sway their bodies like people in a nightclub or Yogis and Sanyasees in ecstatic movements. Traditionally Sikhs humbly sit peacefully only engaging the spiritual dance of the mind accompanied with Guru gian and simran. For Sikhs, the closest thing to religious physical dancing with the body is the beating of the table, strumming of the stringed musical instruments, and percussion of the harmonium and chimes. Have Sikhs reformed the Sikh faith and practice by placing a strict taboo on dance totally as a reaction to the negative abuses of dance by manmukhs, or have anti-Sikh forces enforced no dancing as a control mechanism to distract others from being attracted to Gurmat? This topic demands a proper definition of dancing in light of the lifestyle of Gurmat according to the teachings in the Guru Granth Sahib.

Are humans the only ones that dance? Animals and fish dance for courting, using unusual movements and posture to attract their mate, or to pose a warning to attack or act in self defense.

Dancing also increases circulation, enhancing synovial fluid to the joints, and aids in physical healing and increased immune system that prevent diseases.
In molecular science, molecules dance during cellular processes such as signal transduction and protein sorting. Glycoproteins interacting with protein channels inside the lipid membranes of cell walls direct the flow of certain specific ions and water molecules across the membrane involving signal transduction and protein sorting. http://www.uni-leipzig.de/diffusion/journal/pdf/volume2/diff_fund_2(2005)113.pdf KMf bRhmMf qRY gux nwcy ijn lwgI hir ilv qumwrI ] (5060, gUjrI, mhlw 3) <font color="black"><font face="Tahona">
