Many choose the prevailing medical system and handover responsibility to heal their physical body to others. Some know that they are more than just a physical body to be treated in parts through mechanical and chemical means. These people refuse to remain on medication for rest of their lives. They also refuse to accept removal of “offending” organ. These people are the one who take to other healing methods collectively termed as Alternative Medical Systems. Some go even further and empower themselves to self-heal. Simran healing is spiritual path to such an empowerment. Simran healing is a method which places your conscious awareness at a level that empowers you to direct the creative power of consciousness to self-heal.

    'In Our Whole Society, There Is No Equality': Sikh Householding And

    religions Article ‘In Our Whole Society, There Is No Equality’: Sikh Householding and the Intersection of Gender and Caste Nicola Mooney Department of Social, Cultural and Media Studies & South Asian Studies Institute, University of the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford, BC V2S 7M8, Canada; [email protected] Received: 24 December 2019; Accepted: 7 February 2020; Published: 19 February 2020 Abstract: Sikhism is widely understood and celebrated as san egalitarian religion. This follows from its interpretation as a challenge to the caste schema of Hinduism as well as readings which suggest its gender equality. This paper explores the intersection of caste and gender in Sikh society in relation to Guru Nanak’s tenet that Sikhs be householders. Nanak’s view that householding is the basis of religious life and spiritual liberation—as opposed to the caste Hindu framework in which householding relates only to the specific stage of life in which one is married and concerned with domestic affairs—was one of the most important social and ritual reforms he introduced. By eliminating the need for an asceticism supported by householders, or in other words the binary framework of lay and renunciant persons, Nanak envisioned the possibility that the rewards of ascetism could accrue to householders. For Sikhs living at Kartarpur, the first intentional Sikh community, established by Guru Nanak as a place of gathering and meditation, Nanak’s egalitarian ideals were practiced so that women and members of all castes were equal participants. Guru Nanak’s model for social and ritual life presents a radical challenge to the hierarchies and exclusions of Hinduism, and yet, contains within it the basis for ongoing caste and gender disparity for Sikhs, since most Sikhs continue to arrange their householding around caste endogamous marriages and social and domestic arrangements which privilege men.

    Information on Sikhism for Primary School Age Children

    Information on Sikhism for Primary school age children Sikhism is a monothelite religion. Mo‐noth‐e‐lite means the belief that there is only one God. No matter what religion we may practise, we believe there is only one God. This symbol contains Punjabi letters which mean “God is one.” The Sikh holy Scriptures start with these words. Sikhs believe and strive for equality for all: equality in the human race, in the cast system, the class system and equality for women. We believe that we are created from Sparks from God, and the Sparks wish to remain pure and to be reunited with God. God is not a man, woman or beast, God takes no form or colour but is viewed as a supreme spirit. The universe is not God ‐ but is in God. We believe in karma: the effects of our actions past, present and future have a consequence upon our souls and desire to return to God. Reincarnation continues until we are seen as worthy. A happy and positive outlook on life and putting your best effort into anything and everything you do is encouraged. Dwelling on gossip, arguments and jealousy is discouraged. The five Ks Kesh: uncut hair and beard, as given by God Kangha: a wooden comb to properly groom the hair as a symbol of cleanliness Katchera: specially made cotton underwear as a reminder of the commitment to purity. Kara: a steel circle, worn on the wrist, signifying bondage to Truth and freedom Kirpan: the dagger, with which the Khalsa is committed to righteously defend Truth.

    A Multisensorial Affective Ecology of Sonic Worship: The Sikh Sacred Song Culture INDERJIT N. KAUR Abstract: In this paper, I investigate the ecology of multiple sensorial activities associated 46 (2): 109-133. with a listening practice to analyze its affective and epistemic implications. Ethnographically drawing from Sikh sonic worship, I explore the role of the aural, ocular, tactile, gustatory, and olfactory, and propose that the resulting mutuality between bodies, human and non-human, MUSICultures MUSICultures invigorates and sustains this affective ecology and its epistemic potential. My ethnographic analysis contributes to the growing recognition in ethnomusicology of multisensorial integration in perception and its significance in meaning and knowledge making. Résumé : Dans cet article, j’interroge l’écologie des multiples activités sensorielles associées à une pratique d’écoute afin d’analyser ses implications affectives et épistémiques. À partir d’une étude ethnographique de l’adoration sonore chez les Sikhs, j’explore le rôle de l’auditif, de l’oculaire, du tactile, du gustatif et de l’olfactif, et suggère que la réciprocité qui en résulte entre les corps, humains et non humains, vivifie et entretient cette écologie affective et son potentiel épistémique. Mon analyse ethnographique contribue à une plus grande reconnaissance de l’ethnomusicologie de l’intégration multi-sensorielle de la perception, et de sa signification dans la création de sens et de savoir. fter a correction of Western modernist ocularcentrism toward an A appreciation of “varieties of sensory experience” (Howes 1991) not limited to the five exteroceptive senses only (see, for example, Classen 1993; Seremetakis 1994; Geurts 2002a, 2002b; Vannini, Waskul, and Gottschalk 2012), sensory studies has increasingly recognized that each sense is not a separate modality but most often implicates other senses in perceptual A Multisensorial Affective Ecology of Sonic Worship: The Sikh Sacred Song Culture.
