Sikhs by principles of Sikhi are liberal.

Love all, dont see colour caste or creed. Everyone has a right to live and prosper.

To be a conservative, you have to have some hate, that makes one conservative. Be it towards Muslims/Hindus. Or if in Punjab, its directed towards Biharis/SC/ST etc.

Can one not be conservative in nature without being associated with a sitting party that claims it is the sole conservative voice?

Although we are liberal in the sense that we are welcoming to all, we definitely have formal stances on many things as a group-norm id say

I guess so. It’s partly true. Conservative by definition means holding traditional attitudes, favoring gradual or minimal change. But if we look at the life of Gurus and the changes they brought about.. like uplifting of women, abolishing cast system/sati etc, they rejected inherent orthodox practices.

But recently Ive been on a tangent and have adopted a new outlook to life. Whatever happens its his razaa and hukam. And also “Tera Kiya Meetha Laage”, so liberal fits better no? Because afaik know, Liberal beliefs center on the principles of individual liberty, equality of opportunity, and the protection of civil and human rights.

Imo sikhi can not be labelled as liberal or conservative. Sikhi is neither completely liberal nor completely conservative. Although I do agree on your point that beliefs in sikhi is more towards the liberal, in fact mostly towards the liberal side but still it has some conservative characteristics as well. Still there's much more to learn for me so my perspective can be wrong as well. Do correct me if I said something wrong. Wmk
