Islam plus Indian religion in one form or another. Can't really say Hinduism as it's just a collective name created by the British to label most Indian spirituality.

I doubt Indians were all white 3000 years ago, if this has anything to do with the Aryan myth, it could be said there's hardly any credible evidence to support that theory.

That does not make sense, from an evolutionary point view if Indians Were White, then they would have come form the North were it is cold, or India was once a cold place.

Many suggest that Indians have Mesopotamian Roots, whom have African Root.

just the opposite in fact.

sikhism was regarded as the 'militant' force of hinduism that was started as a means of protest against islamic rule in india- more particularly, against the conversion of punjabi hindu families into islam.

Sikhism didn't start as a protest movement at all, but a syncretistic assembly of Hindu and Muslim people who wanted to practise the ecstatic worship of God / refinement of the self together, under the direction of a spiritually advanced master (Nanak).

it was started by the gurus as an independant faith to deviate from the then existing casteist system of hinduism and the some repressive practices of islam.

the maximum conversions to sikhism took place then punjabi hindus were forced to convert to islam.

yeah dude, we know them as aryans.

they occupied/invaded the northern parts of india millenia after the indus valley civilization and other dravidic communities in southern india were already existing (some theories suggest the early indians came from east africa; to this day, they exist as tribal groups in the andaman and nicobar islands).

but to say indians were 'white' 3000 years go is not only foolish, but reflective of your already existing white supremacist beliefs. it wasn't 'white'; it was very much ethnic and a land full of dark skinned people before the aryan race took over the northern part of the land.

The Sikh religion seems to have undergone some radical changes by successive (increasingly political) gurus who altered the doctrines to make them less accessible to Muslims, presumably under the influence of Jatts - a north Indian caste group - who joined up/identified themselves as Sikhs in large numbers in their latter days. The caste system exists today, and traditional Sikhs are both casteist and pro-Hindustan.

Punjabi Hindus were never forced to convert to Islam. This is more or less a modern propaganda peddled by Jatt interests, who became interested in water rights and land in the 20th century. Granted, Aurangzeb was severe towards non-Muslims, but the stories spread by Jatts of Islam spreading by the sword in north India are nothing but pure fantasy designed to further their land and water interests in the Punjab state. Islam actually spread in India through the influence of Sufi masters, not the Mughal lords. Originally the Sikhs targeted the Muslims as competitors for these resources of water and land - demonising them with ridiculous stories and banning Muslim habits such as halal meat and shisha - now they target the Hindu Brahmins.

Sikhism is all about equality. No one is higher or lower, kings are the same as peasants or so to speak, and humans are equal to animals etc. If you read more into Sikhism to be a good sikh it's a lot about removing ego from the self, and teaches you not to be like the rest of the world which follows greed, self interest, egoism etc. It can be said that sikhism is a cross between hinduism and islam. But they do not believe in simple pilgrames and rituals making a soul clean, or in idol worship such as the hindus do. They believe in a single god which is omnipresent and is eternal.

Instead Skhism preaches about the power of oneness, selflessness. I think that the holy book the "guru granth sahib" has a lot of correlation to what some speakers and scientists say today. I shall do more research! Also a famous quote from Guru Nanak in regards to this forum is sorta like this "You shall know when it is Kalyug (dark ages) when evil tyrants are ruling and are accepted by the world" e.g. this can be seen today such as bush, obama etc.

LOL okay okay Aurangzeb followed a certain type of islam and yes they did forcibly convert non-believers if they did not comply. Guru tegh bahudur was tortured to convert to islam, but he did not and thus died a martyr. Other such martyrs are Guru Gobhinds sons who were bricked alive for not accepting Islam either, further evidence is of punjabi babies being impaled on spears and mothers forced to wear their dead babies around their necks if they didn't convert. But they kept their faith in sikhi.

oh well, back to sikhism.

The Aryan race invasion theory is western propaganda fabricated by Max Muller to serve him and his masters "christian" doctrines and views. The truth didn't serve their agenda. The Aryans never invaded India because they had already been there since dawn of time.

Bhakti yoga and true christendom, Jesus style, is more or less the same science of awakening true God consciousness. Christendom has roots which goes back to aryan vedic India. I find the semblance stunning.

the aryan invasion theory is bollocks simply because they talk about these invaders being 'fair skinned', and max mueller implied that this race arrived from the caucasus mountains. this theory does not in any way take into regard the mention of this race which dates back as far as 5 millenia- around the time the upanishads were probably written. in other words, max mueller has taken full credit for 'stumbling upon' this fact and never made any reference whatsoever to its mention in ancient spiritual texts that were already revered by the general population of hindus.

the ancient upanishads (which precede the vedas) speak of 'fair skinned demi gods' arriving in pushpa-viman from the 'high skies' and giving their blessings or providing 'amrit' (divine nectar) to the earthly mortals (aka the indians who lived on the land prior to the 'demi gods' arrival). this race of fair skinned 'gods' were tall, well built, and had 'godly features'; this race is also thought to have written the vedas, but i cannot be sure. ever wonder how or why the upanishads are almost or never mentioned with the frequency the vedas are mentioned? it gives me something to think about.

from what i have read of icke's work, there is a mention of this race of 'gods' in almost every native civilization. india is no exception, and if you purchase or download the upanishad volumes, perhaps you will know who these 'fair skinned gods' really are, and how they have incredible similarities to the 'annunaki' race of yore.

i know the history of my land well enough to sniff bullshitters like max mueller and enthusiasts of the same theory like the one whose post i am about to address.



The first inhabitants of India were white, calling me childish names does not change the truth, rather a pathetic form of debate if I don't mind saying so.

spot the childish name in my post, mister.

a 'pathetic debate' is one which is never grounded on fact, but rather on twisted figments of one's imagination- such as yours.

you were the one who trolled this topic and made it into something ugly (i'm equally guilty for wasting time on this, but anyway...), and though i will hate myself for wasting my energy on this post, you will not catch me making nonsensical posts on the history of england... yeah, that doesn't happen, because i simply don't venture into a territory when i'm not armed with the necessary arsenal :)

read the upanishads, read the vedas, read indian history that is not penned by western authors and so called historians, and then have the gall to make statements like that.




i will leave the white/non-white and aryan/non aryan debate right about... here >.< sorry shenoma, for indulging in this stuff in a thread as nice as this...

Sorry but you are under a misapprehension on this issue. 'Khalistan' is a modernist Sikh movement with roots in 20th century India. Bhindranwale was a head of 'Damdami Taksal', an organisation that is not traditional but 20th century reformist. Ideologically, the roots of these people go back to 1925 and the Singh Sabha.

The traditional Sikhs, as another poster mentioned on the other Sikhs thread, are Akali Nihangs, Udasis, Nirmalas and Sevapanthis. These are all orders that were founded by the Sikh gurus and are pretty much unchanged and in their natural state. During the most intense time of the 1984 Sikh uprising and its immediate aftermath, the Akali Nihangs under their chief Baba Santa Singh supported the Indian government. The traditional Sikhs have a vested interest in keeping open and free access to the gurdwaras and most importantly the 'takhts' in India and Pakistan, and mainly for this reason they openly refer to the Sikhs as being an integral part of the nation of 'Hindustan'. There are always some modern Sikhs who say they don't want to be a part of India, but they are not traditional Sikhs i.e. Udasis, Akali Nihangs, Sevapanthis or Nirmalas.

like this...


The goal of the Khalistan movement is to create a Sikh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia homeland, often called Khālistān (Punjabi language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: ਖ਼ਾਲਿਸਤਾਨ "The Land of the Khalsa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"), in the Punjab region - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Harking back to the 18th century Sikh Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, the envisioned Sikhism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia state would include all Punjabi language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia-speaking areas, viz. Punjab, India - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haryana, Himachal Pradesh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and some other Punjabi speaking parts of states like Gujarat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and Rajasthan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Wikipedia's no good. Anyone can write anything there. Plus saying that there was an 18th century 'Sikh' kingdom (which wasn't called Khalistan and which wasn't based on Sikhism by the way) doesn't make the 20th century 'Khalistan' movement 'traditional'.

Aurengzeb is the reason the Mughal empire collapsed, the wars he waged in the deccan drained the treasury and caused general discontent. Islam was not spread by the sword in India, Islamic rule was indeed spread by the sword.

Islam came to being in India:

- Through the settlement of Arabs, Turks, Pashtuns, Persians.
- Conversion of low caste Hindus to whom the equality of man was a great allure. I mean if I was a low caste living in 13th century, I would do anything to escape the brutal and sick caste system which is a very much a part of hinduism despite all the claims by neo hindus.
- The work of Sufis who went from village to village prosleytizing.
- And there were a small number of courtiers who thought becoming Muslim would be "good for their careers".
