Veer jee Could you provide referances regarding giani gurbax Singh jees attack on the nitnem bani, I have his book Darpan Sikh rehit maryada but im abit confused about the arguments you are raising. Your links say this is what he has done. And also questioned the Amrit banis.

I also belief Giani Gurbax Singh Gulshan has never studied at any missionary college. So its odd he is being called a missionary (as your links claim). giani Gurbax Singh totally follows the Panthic Sikh rehit maryada, so I will be suprised if he attacks the akal Takhat. Its interesting that no one seems to be following the Akal Takhat, the Akal Takhat says no Granth can be parkash with the Guru granth Sahib (yet we openly reject this), then when someone is attacking the dasam granth they are kuffars for challenging the Akal Takhat. We are all liable for challenging the Akal Takhat.

I look forward to the page referances.

The links are self explanatory as the various organisations have mentioned what areas he has attacked.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa

Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

I have received some information regarding Panjabradio in the UK who who will be entertaining Gyani Gurbax Gulshan Singh today at 8pm who has attcked the nitnem banis and was blocked from becoming a Giani for the SGPC due to his nefarious activities. He will be talking about the Sri Dasam Granth when last weeks Akal Takht Hukumnama has asked people to stop attacking the banis which form the Dasam Granth and the Nitnem.

Please read the following links on Gyani Gurbax Gulshan Singh.

The directive from Akal Takht Jathedar last week was quite clear, " Sangat should not raise any controversy over the hymns of the Dasam Granth".

Wahe Guru ji ka Khalsa Wahe Guru ji ki Fateh

Akali Nihang Sukha Singh presentation at the Dasam Granth Bir Ras Kirtan Durbar at Birmingham in March 08.

The presentation goes through the history of the Dasam Granth and Sukha Singh explains in Punjabi and English as to why the Dasam Granth is so central to the Sikh psyche.

Using images and quotes he leaves the listener mesmorised with his detailed knowledge on the subject.

This statement was prepared after contacting AKJ.org

AKJ.org has recently issued a statement on their web forum clarifying their position on the Sri Dasam Granth. However their statement is not very clear and is in fact contradicted by various AKJ leaders who have taken a pro Dasam Granth Stance in 2008. In their statement it states that they speak for AKJ worldwide but this is incorrect as the name of AKJ is being tarnished by AKJ.org which is now creating confusion

The statements states that they have chosen not publicize the issue of Sri Dasam Granth and that “many have raised what seem to be plausible doubts about some parts of The Dasam Granth that, they say, are not the Rachanaa of our Guru Saheb”. This misleading statement confirms that their own faith has been shattered by some anti Dasam Granth proponents. So they seem to disagree with the latest Hukumnama directive on the Sri Dasam Granth which puts their own credibility in doubt.

They also state “We are eager to see the researchers prove the facts, and whatever the facts turn out to be, and are agreeable to Khaalsaa Panth, Akhand Keertanee Jathaa will abide by the decisions of Khaalsaa Panth”. Unfortunately this rhetoric has put the AKJ in untenable position. They are not happy with the position taken by the Akal Takht. Especially in light of the fact that the prakash of the Sri Dasam Granth used to take place at the Akal Takht until the 1940’s when it was dislodged by some fanatics. They are not happy with the position taken by Takhts Patna Sahib and Hazur Sahib where prakash of Sri Dasam Granth takes place.

Their publication is more worrying especially when some members of the AKJ leadership have come out with a pro Dasam Granth stance in 2008.

1) In the Takht Damdama Sahib Conclave “a befitting reply to anti Dasam Granth was given by Bhai Mohkam Singh Ludhiana (Akhand Kirtani Jatha) - Bhai Sahib stated that it is shameful for ragi Darshan Singh to allege that if we believe in Dasam Bani, then we do not respect Guru Granth Sahib Ji. He countered, that in 1978 Singhs from the Akhand

Kirtani Jatha and the Damdami Taksal sacrificed their lives for the sanctity of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, and they were ready to do that again if the need arises. He asked ragi Darshan Singh and his missionaries if they could show a single sacrifice they had made for the sanctity of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji”. So the recent statement is contradictory to the words of Bhai Mokham Singh.

In Resolutions Passed at this conclave at Takht Sri Damdama Sahib against Ragi Darshan Singh it was signed by the AKJ.

2) The AKJ refused permission for Ragi Darshan Singh to do Kirtan in January 2008.

Jathedar Jagjit Singh Gaba and Ranbir Singh Jaura, President and Secretary respectively of Gurudwara Guru Tegh Bahadur Committee, Jalandhar refuted Prof Darshan Singh for using derogatory language against Guru Gobind Singh and his bani and refused him to perform kirtan at the Gurudwara on maghi day.

Please see following article:

In light of the positive stance taken by several members of the AKJ it appears that the new stance by AKJ.org which they “state is the AKJ worldwide stance” is either misguided or that they have actually done a u turn like Ragi Darshan Singh himself.

I have updated the earlier story at PHN with another artefact being sold at Southebys.

The link to the relics can also be seen there.

For the official press releases regarding the sale visit www.sridasamgranth.com

As our original story stated many original aretefacts related to Sikh history are within the possession of private collections and families related to various Sikh lineages.

It is on our interest to ensure that various Sikh related relics are available for all the Sikh sangat to view rather than being stuffed in somebodys cupboard or shed. We hope the body armour stays within the Uk so it can be properly available for Darshan.

This weekend sees a slightly unusual event taking place in Birmingham, England. A rare occasion where the presence of the Sri Dasam Granth Sahib will be venerated together with the Sri Guru Granth Sahib in England. The event follows from the programme held by the Damdami Taksal at Guru Har Gobind Sahib Ji Gurudwara Tividale, Birmingham and the International Seminar on the Sri Dasam Granth Sahib, Sacramento, America.

Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh

A new article on the above title has been posted on www.punjabheritage.org.

Gurcharanjit Singh Lamba (Editor Sant Sipahi) and the IHRO (International Human Rights Organisation) and have formed a new website termed the Dasam Quest which looks to dispel the myths and questions that individuals have related to the Dasam Granth.

The site also features videos and audio with lectures by learned individuals on the Dasam Granth. The lectures include the significant panthic meet last year at the historical Zafarnama Fateh Divas which was essentially the three hundred anniversary of sending of the Zafarnama. The katha of Dasam Granth by Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale is also featured on the site. There are various essays on the Dasam Granth which will help visitors new to the Dasam Granth on its importance.
