THE SIKH TURBAN

O Lord, what can I say about such an illusion?

It is like the king, who falls asleep upon his throne, and dreams that he is a beggar.

His kingdom is intact, but separated from it, he suffers in sorrow. Such is my own condition. ||2||

The turban is the crown worn by Kings.

The turban is the dignity held on the heads of warriors.

The turban is the honour of wise-men and sages.

When women were seen as inferior and considered impure.

When low castes were accepted as untouchables and treated as slaves.

When the downtrodden were held down by the fear and oppression and made to feel lowly.

Guru Jee reminded us that we are all the children of True Ruler, the One Creator, Waheguru.

Guru Jee reminded us that we are all Kings and Queens.

Guru Jee reminded us that we are all special and important beings.

Women, low castes and the downtrodden were raised higher than a Brahman, who called himself wise and a godly.

Women, low castes and the downtrodden were raised higher than a Kshatri, who called himself a warrior and heroes.

Women, low castes and the downtrodden were raised higher than a King, who called himself royal and the ruler.

The Guru gave his arm to the poor.

The Guru gave his arm to the oppressed.

The Guru gave his arm to the needy.

Pulling them up he gave them dignity, respect and honour.

Comb your hair twice a daily and re-tie your turban each time your wear it.

Rehatnama Bhai Nand Laal Jee

Placing a turban on the head of a woman, she could now boldy show the world she was no less than a man.

Placing a turban on the head of a low caste, he could now bravely show society that he was no less than high caste.

Placing a turban on the head of the downtrodden, they could now show the oppressors that they were no longer the oppressed but were all Kings and Queens.

Blessed is that Guru, who gave us the gift of being Sardars.

Blessed is that Guru, who gave us the life of being a Warrior Saint.

Blessed is that Guru, who reminded us that we to live like Singhs (Lions) & Kaurs (Princess).

Sister when you look at the turban on your head:

Remember you have the honour of a Queen!

Remember you have the courage of a lioness!

Remember you are royality and the daughter of Guru Gobind Singh Ji!

Brother when you look at the turban on your head:

Remember you have the honour of a King!

Remember you have the courage of a lion!

Remember you are royality and the son of Guru Gobind Singh Ji!

Be inspired and inspire others.

May Waheguru bless you.
