Sikh and Hindu Interfaith relationships

I'm saying that you need to find me a quote from the Guru Granth Sahib saying that inter-faith marriage is sinful. If no such quote exists, then the Akal Takt are just as knowledgeable on the matter as you or I. If such a quote exists, then I am incorrect in saying that inter-faith marriage isn't a sin.

Find a quote, or accept that you're wrong.

There are many quotes. just look them up.

find me a quote that says Interfaith marriages are allowed in Sikhism. then accept you are wrong my friend.

As a Punjabi Sikh male living in London, I have always wondered why we dont see more of these relationships happening. When there are large population of both Sikhs and Hindus in London.

I mean we have so much in common in terms of a rich cultural backgrounds ect that we should be proud of.
But it seems Sikhs and Hindus or shall we say Punjabi Sikhs and Gujarati Hindus will more likely date a person of another race altogether then with each other.This is ridiculous when we are the same people.

This is not right. we should be sticking together not marrying white or non Sikh or non Hindu people.
But its a shame that we are seeing many of our people marrying other races and religions.

Extremist extremist, extremist and militant Sikhs like you are the ones that cause all the trouble. why discriminate against Hindu festivals? yet you will marry a non sikh and probably celebrate their festivals??

Is that not a contradiction?

You are not Jat first of all. There is no caste in Sikhism.

You are only Sikh!

No quotes exist, either for or against my points. However, read this from the Guru Granth Sahib:
“The Lord of man and beast is working in ALL; His presence is scattered everywhere; There is none else to be seen.”

If Waheguru works within us all, Sikhs and non-Sikhs, why can't a Sikh marry a non-Sikh? They are both blessed and loved by God; why would he disapprove of their matrimony?

why is it not right for us to marry white/non sikh/non hindus?

I don't think its fair for you to go around saying that certain people from certain backgrounds shouldn't mix. Relationships, love and marriage are personal things.

If I married a non-Sikh, I wouldn't celebrate their festivals before celebrating my own first. That was my point. That does not make me an 'extremist'. You're putting more importance on celebrating Hindu festivals rather than Sikh ones. You're saying I'm discriminating against Hindu festivals, but I'm saying you shouldn't celebrate any other faith festivals before your own faith and that goes for all faiths, not just Sikhism.

By definition, an 'extremist' is "a person who holds extreme political or religious views, especially one who advocates illegal, violent, or other extreme action." I am not advocating illegal, violent, or extreme action. I am simply saying celebrate Sikh festivals before other faiths' festivals.

A LONG, COPY-AND-PASTED PARAGRAPH, CONTAINING NO QUOTES FROM THE GURU GRANTH SAHIB

Jasaron as he believes that his tiny and insignificant mind

Jasron, do you think we should take your word for it instead of the Akal Takt? Are you higher than the Akal Takt? Why don’t we just forget what the Akal Takt has to say even though they have the collective knowledge of all the Sikh experts and professionals is interoperating the holy Sikh scriptures. When we have Jasaron.

As a Sikh I personally feel every religion will lead to God, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism ect. As these religions live peacefully side by side.

So can we celebrate Hindu festivals at all or should they all be banned as we are Sikh?

Well I dont think its fair that you should tell Sikhs who believe they should stick to their own faith and are practicing their religion to the best of their abiity that they should marry anyone and everyone? Why should you dictate who they should be able to marry?


If you believe that yourself and your children should be allowed to marry non Sikhs including white/muslim ect then by all means go ahead with your beliefs and live your life that way. But do not tell other Sikhs that they should marry non Sikhs When they do not want to. You have no right and it is offensive and disrespectful!

You are actually accusing me of something but at the same time you are saying the same thing.

Do you worship Waheguru and follow the teaching of the eleven Gurus, or do you worship the Akal Takt?



You asked me to find you a quote from the GGS to support my viewpoint, and I did. Rather than confront my evidence, you opt to ignore it, instead insulting me.



This is funny. I'm one of the most intelligent people you'll ever have the utter displeasure of debating with. Don't insult me.

People ilke you who live your life of forums where you have noting better to do. dont make me laugh. I unlike you have a life outside of the internet and so dont have the time to come on here and reply. Infact this will be my last post on this topic as people like you are not worth engwe are going around in circles. I stand and will always stand by my post. I guess we we will have to agree to disagree.






I'll say it again:
“The Lord of man and beast is working in ALL; His presence is scattered everywhere; There is none else to be seen.”

If Waheguru works within us all, Sikhs and non-Sikhs, why can't a Sikh marry a non-Sikh? They are both blessed and loved by God; why would he disapprove of their matrimony?


Answer the question, with proof from the Guru Granth Sahib, and you may be appear as less of a moron and more of the civilised, reasonable individual that I'm sure you are.
Otherwise, I'm going to stop posting. Debates need two participants; not one making rational arguments and the other completely ignoring them.

EDIT:


If all of these religions lead to God, why can't an inter-faith couple be joined in matrimony to embark on their journey of enlightenment together?

As I said live your life the way you want. and I will live mine how I want.




If you read what the girl was writing, you'd have an answer to your question.

I unlike you have a life outside of the internet and so dont have the time to come on here and reply.

Now now paji youve got the wrong end of the stick. All im saying is these choices are personal. Im not telling anyone to marry only their own nor am i telling them to marry people out of their religion or ethnicity. All im saying is that there is pro-choice. People can do what they feel. I did not say Sikhs should marry non Sikhs, youre twisting my words here. If you want to marry within your religion or whatever thats cool, thats your choice no one is judging you. What im saying is that ita unfair to judge someone that isnt doing the samw as you.

The Granth itself states that all people are equal.

well tell them that

"Doesn't have time to reply"

*replies*

lmao

Yes as a Hindu Gujarati, No problem with Hindus and Sikhs marry each other since they have a lot in common culturally, and many people of either group don't have a problem it.
