I was a member of the Yogi Bhajan kundalini tantric yoga cult for 30 years. It was only after spending two years at the Darbar Sahib and meeting true Sikhs did I learn about the many false teachings of Yogi Bhajan and the damage his Kundali...ni and tantric yoga does. The problem we have now is that about 3,000 or so hard core cult followers of Yogi Bhajan, like Sevak Singh Khalsa, are teaching these corrupt practices of tantra/mantra and idol worship in the name of Sikhism to thousands of innocent yoga students in the west. We need to make awareness of these unSikh like teachings and show them true Sikhism and the beauty of Gurbani.
Pictures and I witnesses do not lie. Don't take my word for it. Read Dr. Trilochan Singh's book written in 1977: http://gurmukhyoga.com/forum/index.php?id=1“Sikhism and Tantric Yoga” is a rare and out of print book by a Sikh scholar and his...torian which takes a critical look at Yogi Bhajan's kundalini and tatric yoga systems. I discovered this book during my two years in India. “Sikhism and Tantric Yoga” has been a real eye-opener for me and makes complete sense when I think about the last thirty years of my life with Yogi Bhajan. Written by the esteemed Dr. Trilochan Singh, author of over twenty books on Sikh history and philosophy and lecturer at sixteen Universities, “Sikhism and Tantric Yoga”, describes the Sikh mystical path and is critical of Yogi Bhajan's Tantra and Kundalini Yoga.
"Sikhism and Tantric Yoga" by Dr. Trilochan Singh (Link to entire book) "The book Sikhism And Tantric Yoga is available at: www.gurmukhyoga.com.This website which is operated by a genuine White Sikh is highly recommended. Gursant Singh was a member of the Yogi Bhajan Cult (3HO and the Sikhnet Gora Sikhs or White Sikhs) for over 30 years and has intimate knowledge about the inner workings of this cult which attempts to miscegnate Sikhism with Hindu idolatry. I downloaded the book from Gursant’s website and found it to be absolutely compelling. I read it in one compulsive and sustained draught. It is a study not only about cults in Sikhism but about the miscegenation of the Sikh Religion by Hinduism. It is a classic work rendered in beautiful English prose and it is patently the work of a profound intellectual scholar with a deep knowledge of Sikhism."

I've not read the book you are talking about - but I do know that the more educated someone is on Sikhism means nothing really. Since "Sochai Soch Nah Hovai, Jeh Sochee Lakh Vaar". Sikhism cannot be understood by thinking, but rather by going beyond the mind into the heart.
Also, a lot of so called religious and true Sikhs at Darbar Sahib are just blind. They follow their own teachings and have not understood the teachings of the Guru. So, what makes you think they are true Sikhs? How do you know for sure?
A true Sikh is one who has a soft heart, a kindness and a pure love of giving. A true Sikh is someone who does not see through the lens of right and wrong, but rather sees God in everything just as it is.
Your thoughts are on these words are most welcome.
Also...I agree with you that Yoga is not Sikhi, but I have found that Yoga is good to prepare someone to receive Sikhism because it clears a person's karmas very effectively. Where psychology ends, that's where Yoga begins and where Yoga ends, that's where Sikhism begins :).
Ji, I need not support my views because I have nothing to prove - everyone is entitled to their own opinion on Yoga and Sikhi and will understand the Guru according to their own spiritual development.

ReplyDeleteFateh,
Jasdeep.
if yoga and sikhism is different, stop yoga classes in gurudwaras.
ReplyDeleteJasdeep, u write very confusing comments. Please read about Yoga in Gurbani and support your statements by Gurbani.
ReplyDeleteJi, I need not support my views because I have nothing to prove - everyone is entitled to their own opinion on Yoga and Sikhi and will understand the Guru according to their own spiritual development.
