Пълно описание

Sikhi (Sikhism), taught during the times of the Sikh Gurus (1469
1708), was an original, authentic, divinely revealed religion that was
entirely distinct from Hinduism and Islam, as well as all other major
faiths of the period. It was a religion free of meaningless rituals,
superstitions, and illogical beliefs.

However, as fate would have it, since the fall of the first Sikh rule
under 'Babba Banda Singh Bahadur' (d.1716), groups such as
'Udasis', 'Nirmalas' and Dera Sants have turned Sikhi into a
ritualistic and superstitious belief and practice system, much of
which was discarded by the Sikh Gurus.

This book will reveal how anti-Sikh groups such as the Udasis
infiltrated historical Sikh Gurdwaras and institutionalised anti-Sikh
practices, such as a male-dominated clergy, worship on so-called
holy days like pooranmashi, the placement of religious artefacts like
divas and incense sticks, and ideas of purity based on superstitious
concepts. It will also uncover how 'Nirmalas', with their Haridwar
education, re-wrote Sikh history, merging the Gurus' life stories
with myths, fables, and fairy tales borrowed from various world
mythologies. Additionally, it will demonstrate how this group
distorted the interpretation of the Guru Granth Sahib, with Vedic
and Brahminic explanations. Furthermore, the book will show how
'Sants' and their 'Dera's (cult centres) emerged to both divide and
corrupt Sikhi, and how these groups are supported by today's anti
Sikh forces.

In this book, learn how, among other things, Sikh women, including
Amritdhari women, can remove unwanted facial and other hair if
they want to. It also discusses how Akhand Paaths, Nagar Kirtans,
and even the current Sikh marriage ceremony, the 'Anand Karaj', are
practices that the Sikh Gurus did not sanction, and how Lori, Rakri,
and other festivals have no connection to the original Sikh tradition.
Additionally, it explains how the name of the Sikhs holiest
Gurdwara was changed from Darbār Sahib to Harmandir Sahib
