  3. What is ego in your tradition? In mine, it is any "I" related thoughts and identities. Thinking, "I am this," or "I am that."

  4. I think his message was God, love and oneness of all people. I'm skeptical of texts written by unknown sources 18 centuries ago that claim things I know to be impossible (turning water into wine). In the end, those claims don't affect how I try to align my heart in my daily life. In daily life I try to keep a Godly conduct and loving emotional state. This is how we will create heaven on earth. Like it or hate it, but his exact message will never get to me as closely as Mohammed's, or Guru Nanak's, or Rumi, or Baha'Ullah, or any other prophet who was able to write their message down on paper.

  5. Sikhi and the Khalsa panth are two different things. The uniform of the Khalsa Panth is for fat old guys who believe they are saint-soldiers.
