Sir,
Although I am sure that S. Amarjit Singh Buttar had the best intentions I was not happy to see my name lumped in with the Yogi Bhajan people.
By birth I am not Punjabi but I don’t think of myself as an “American Sikh” any more than any Gursikh will tolerate being called a Jat Ramgarhia etc.
I became a Sikh through the association of Gursikhs in various Gurdwara’s. I have never had contact with Mr. Yogi Bhajan. I never considered approaching Mr. Yogi for guidance because I happen to know that yogis are Hindu phenomena. I have no need to go to anyone but the Gurkikhs for association and friendship. I believe that we should not follow them. Remember that Guru Gobind Singh has warned
“Jab ih gahai bipran ki rit mai na karo inki partit.”
