Of course this is really Yogi Bhajan’s fault for a really stupid decision to name all his students Singh/Kaur Khalsa, no matter what their level of commitment was to Sikhi. For them to use the name Khalsa, when the overwhelming majority of them neither recites panj bani nor wear panj kaka, is hypocritical in the extreme. I've said this before and I'll say it again: The 3HO people may do whatever Hindu practices they like there is no law against it but they should not claim to be Khalsa or use Khalsa names, Singh and Kaur. To Amardas: You said, "What is anti-Sikh? Is Christianity anti-Sikh?." Anti-Sikh is when people call themselves Sikhs, use Sikh names and bana but flagrantly violate the SRM. (1) "Yogi Bhajan given Hindu last rites" (2) "American yogis distort Sikh scripture" (3) "3,500 Sikhs petition Akal Takhat against Bhajan’s yogis Son-in-law and 3HO leader urge PR damage control measures" Trilochan Singh along with testimony from students of Yogi Bhajan over the 40 years or so he taught kundalini and tantric yoga.

The Sikh Free Press, (not articles written by me, by the way) which outline much of what I am saying including photographs and references to Sikh scholars and historians like Dr.

I'll post those links here again for you to read. I think if you read these articles carefully they will give you accurate facts about Yogi Bhajan which you seem to be lacking in your comments. I am wondering however if you have taken the time to read those articles in the Sikh Free Press which I posted in another thread. I'll take your word for it now that you are not doing this purposefully. I only ask this because I have read many of your comments in several threads on Reddit and I am just amazed at how your statements just do not tell the whole story about Yogi Bhajan and 3HO's many violations of the Sikh Reht Maryada. To Amardas: OK, I've deleted my statement asking if you are purposefully making untruthful statements in order to mislead Sikhs. It is not even claiming they are Sikh names.

What is anti-Sikh? Is Christianity anti-Sikh? Should we start calling all Christians anti-Sikh? This is a loaded term used manipulate people towards certain thought processes that divide people instead of bringing them together.Īsks for donations to help support the existence of a service that people like that would not otherwise exist with out said donations. If only we had an open and safe forum to communicate ideas and hash things like this out. Giving people complete information is hard. Some form of numerology is employed, based on the birthdate. Also, he did not do it directly in the sense of just on the spot handing out names.ĭo they not do a hukam when helping decide the name? They do, and it would be misleading to leave that part out too. You know there is a group that is set up to accept requests for Spiritual Names and that Yogi Bhajan did not do it directly.

I don't know if you actually care to understand my meaning, or if you are just looking for ways to attack. I don't know if Yogi Bhajan ever gave people Sikh names directly Such casual character assassination instead of letting your arguments stand on their own merit. This is an example of a personal attack, turning this subreddit into a hostile place. But on second thought maybe you are making these statements purposefully to mislead well meaning Sikhs who really want to know the truth.
