Editor of Sikh magazine Sant Sipahi visits Bay Area California

Fremont, Jan 20: Sardar Gurcharanjit Singh Lamba , editor of panthik journal Sant Sipahi from Amritsar, who is on a personal visit to California today attended the weekly diwan at Fremont Gurudwara Sahib and made a speech.

Sardar Lamba’s passionate and thought-provoking speech was received by the sangat with apt attention. Although Sardar Lamba spoke for more than 45 minutes but the sangat remained spell bound with the continuous scenes, quotes and references from Guru Granth Sahib, Sri Dasam Granth, Bhai Gurdas First and Second, Bhai Nand Lal, Rahitnames etc.

The theme of his lecture was that Guru Nanak Dev ji was the jyot of Akalpurakh and from Guru Nanak Dev ji to Guru Gobind Singh ji is nothing but the continuity of the same jyot. He explained further that it is really hard to look for Guru Nanak Dev ji in Guru Gobind Singh ji. He quoted extensively from Sikh scriptures that Guru Gobind Singh ji has Himself written that only the faithful can understand this phenomena but not the stupid.

“sri nanak angad kar mana,

amar das angad pechana,

amardas ramdas kahiyo,

sadhan lakha moorh nahi payo.”

He went on to elaborate that the panth was started by Guru Nanak Dev ji and completed by Guru Gobind Singh. The message and concept is same.

Sardar Lamba also quoted extensively from Sikh Sakhis and history of puratan Singhs. His narration of the episodes of Bhai Nand Lal and Prof. Puran Singh moved the Sangat.

He concluded his speech by a note that unless we have unflinching shradha, faith we will be wondering uselessly. What we have to do is to fall at the feet of Guru and pray for tearing of bedawa given by us.

At the end Sardar Lamba was blessed with Siropa from Gurdwara Sahib.

Sangat had all the praise and appreciation for the Committee for introducing and allowing time for the motivating speech of Sardar Gurcharanjit Singh Lamba, which was organized on a short notice by Sikh Sangat News ( www.sikhsangat.org).
