Category:	Sikh Practices
Date Posted:	Sunday, 5/22/2005 11:25 AM MDT

Should we at all follow any Hindu rituals. Many of my relatives-even those who are full sikhs follow or believe in hindu rituals. This really aggrevates me cause i believe we lose our identity. Am i justified in being angry

Redirect your anger into devotion and live your life as you feel is important to you. If you want to embrace your Sikh heritage, then do so. If you feel that observing Hindu practices dilutes your Sikh heritage then don't do those Hindu practices. Don't be afraid to live and show your identity. But, also don't judge others who want something differnt than you. Just be you and be proud of it. Then, unconditionally love all. That is the way of a True GurSikh. True spirituality is kindness.
