Beadbhi In London

[DiscoverSikhism]

Gurfateh Sangat Jee, Guru Nanak Darbar Committee members called me yesterday they said that they are agreed to have Shri Akhand Path Sahib for Forgiveness. Some member of Sangat demands that everything should be in writing from Committee because committee has let us down many times. Sangat demands are that-

1. They will never take Guru Granth Sahib Swaroop's to the warehouse.

2. They should never sent Guru Granth Sahib Jee Swaroop's to India.

But Committee said that will are agreed to have Path but they will not give anything in writing!!

Sangat Jee, Please guide us what we should do next?

Many thanks..

Bhaji, a Sri Akhand Path is a welcome step in the right direction.

An acknowledgement by the Guru Nanak Darbar committee that a wrongful action has occurred and to seek forgiveness is the right thing to do (although they promised one before).

Sikh organisations, elders and media have failed to intervene, offer advice or guidance and help resolve the situation.

Tensions are very high and this situation could become easily become a lot worse. Reading some of the responses, its not hard to imagine the course of events.

The Guru Nanak Darbar committee (who are at the centre of this situation) need to take responsibility and diffuse the situation. To date, they have maintained an arrogant public silence.The wider Sangat continues to become aware, at the weekend further mention of this issue was made in the media.

So, yes a Sri Akhand Path (and Ardas) and a written statement to advise how this situation will be avoided in future and what the procedures for dealing with the assessment, collection, repair and destruction of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is required as a minimum.

Bhaji, I understand.

For obvious reasons the committee is hoping the Akhand Path will be enough to reassure people. The Akhand Path is a formal acknowledge in front of Dhan Sri Guru Granth that a wrongful action occurred and asks for forgiveness.

However, the Akhand Path does not stop this situation from re-occurring in future. To that end, the committee will have to make a public statement.

If the committee do not want to provide a statement to advise how this situation will be avoided in future, then the Akhand Path may be viewed as a meaningless act.
