Dear Cyber Sadh Sangat,
Guru Fateh.
The only solution to save our Sikhi from disaster is EDUCATION. When
the clergy of the Takhats is uneducated academically, intellectually
and from the Gurmat view point then what is bred is ego and me-ism
where if anyone bats an eye and questions and challenges the set
traditions which contradict Gurmat and the teachings of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, he/she
becomes an outcast and is stoned in a metaphorical sense.
In order to keep our Sikhi house in order the first prerequisite
should be that at least all Jathedaars of the Takhats and head
Granthis of the Gurdwaras, starting from Harmader Sahib should have
Phd in Gurmat studies and fluency in English.
Just memorsing the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji and parroting it not only an insult to our
Gurus but to Sikhi.
Only educated clergy can modify the SRM to its present needs. Then
only SRM can become a flowing document which can be adapted with the
changes that time and the understanding of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji requires.
Now the question arises HOW to sow the seeds of all this so the future
generations can reap and savour the true Sikhi fruit?
