Oh Please, what about Shivcahran, Shivcharanjit, Mahesh, Maheshinder, etc, or popular names like Bobbie, or Shawn, or Rekha….

Khaistani is misled by political hacks and by British slaves. It says on every page of the SGGS to MEDITATE on the Infinite. Nanak says “Conquer the mind conquer the world” How can one possibly accomplish that without Shabad Guru? Today I helped prepare a Yoga student, yes Yoga for his cremation. We washed his body with rose water kindly and lovingly prepared in the Amrit Vela by another yoga teacher who does Japji Sahib every morning for 4 years in the Amrit Vela.

We played Japi Sahib and Guru Ram Das shabads while we prepared the body and wrapped a turban on him. His request before leaving the body. At night in his hospital room he would see through his suffering two Sikhs in Bana walking through the garden in the landscape painting on the wall of his hospital room.

The tender care and love shone by his partner in helping prepare his body, was so far from empty religious ritual that the funeral director emotionally said “Some people pay $12,000 for a funeral and never feel any where near the blessings and satisfaction of what was felt here. What happened here this morning was something special.”

As his body was cremated we recited Japji Sahib and Kirtan Sohila and the family were moved deeply by its meaning.

They never heard of Sikhs, nor Gurbani nor what a name was, but were ever grateful that a SIkh of the Guru Amrit Dhari was there to help them at there time of need, when they had no religion to carry them or where the religion of part of the family was not accepted by the others.

Some one said they appreciated that we created the space for them all to know each other and honor this kind man in his last journey on this earth.

Phonies? Fakes? Say what you like, but my little son keeps his hair, wears bana proudly, and is kind, courageous and will do simran with eyes closed for ten minutes in the back seat of a car to sooth his anger or rude behavior with out any prompting from his parents and then be beautifully at peace.

I really and sincerely ask Mr. Khalistani, with out any rudeness or attack meaning you don’t have to take this as an insult, when your child is asked what do your parents do, will they replies “You help people.” Would that make you feel like a fake? Not me.

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

I am a believer in sharing of perspectives, so I figure I’d let your comment through here.

I must admit that I have limited of the Sikh faith, but I’m well aware of the Sikh Guru’s. I meditate on their Words daily.

I fully believe the Guru Ram Das would be very acceptable to the concept of a real Sikh being named Shiva, as a blessing to that individual as to a vibrational frequency which they seek to achieve.

I can also say that on our class field trip to the gurdwara in Palatine IL, the Sikh community is very accepting of Shiva Singh, in fact he is well respected.
