Inner Strength - 17
In Germany if you belong to a Church that means if you are a member in the community Church you pay a tax through Income Tax department. If you don't want to pay this tax you have to declare yourself atheist. The tax so collected by the state is given to the Church administration and salaries of the Priest are thus ensured.The Priest provide all services like baptism, marriages free of cost. Any extra charity that Church carries out donations are collected during the Sunday service.Very well thought and executed religious matter. The number of Churches remain minimised and the profession of Priest is highly valued and respected. Everything is perfectly regularised. India is supposed to be a secular state that means governments policies in the matters of religion should be neutral and all the religions should have total freedom. When we have code Bill for various religions and they all come legally under constitution then how do we call it secular. Sikhs, Muslims and Christians have organised central authority to control religious matters but Hindus are most disorganised in this matter. SGPC the central board of Sikhs can organise the matters of salaries to the priests with their budgets in multi- billion rupees every year. The degradation in the religious matters come from the neglect of Priest class. Gurudwaras are necessary for the well being and religious need of the society. Then why neglect the priest. Why cannot SGPC look after the training and salaries of the Priests in each Gurudwara and community should get free service? As it is Guru Nanak in one of his verse PG 471 reprimands: Lai bhara kare viyah ll Kaduh kagad dasse rahu ll sunoh vekho lokoh ehu vidhan ll Man andha naam Sujan ll4ll Meaning: He (priest) takes fees to tell the correct holy hour for the wedding and takes out his book to show the right path.Nanak warns people blind from greed men who call themselves Sujan (Pundit). When Guru Nanak was so much against paid services of the priests then are not we becoming Anti Guru Nanak in today's life.If Gurudwaras get regularised in matters of training of priests and salaries of priests then community will get free service and we will have less number of Gurudwaras in the villages.
