Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh!

21st Century Khalsa

The Khalsa Panth (pre dominately males) from the majority that I have

Come across are a bunch of hotheads who are living in the past. In doing so have

forgotten what their very existence is about, who they represent and what

are our needs today.

The khalsa panth credit themselves of being AKAL POORKH KI FAUJ, they

believe they are God's army set out to protect humanity and earth’s very

existence. However instead many do not hesitate to kill a soul.

I do not believe that Guru Gobind Singh Ji created a force to sit and

Do nothing. I also do not believe Guru Ji taught us how to become violent

people, misfits in society.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji awoke a spirit within each and every one of us.

Guru Ji gave a cause to a belief, Guru Ji gave me the right to be who I am. If u

believe in saving animals from extinction is righteous or Godly then go do

it. If u believe in helping the poor, feeding the world or preventing AIDS

then go do it. Guru Ji has taught me that being a saint soldier is yes a

responsibility (as some would say) but for me being a saint soldier is

being Guru Ji himself. Guru Ji is my father and my father is who I wish to

be.

To be like my father means to let go of my children, my wealth, my

health and more importantly my life. For Guru Ji is now my life and his

instruction is my command, his instruction is my breath.

Guru Ji has shown me that to love humanity and all its existence

does

not end on the battlefield. Today’s khalsa panth want to shed blood of one

another, want to prevent the progression of ones mind, instead of saving

lives, saving the whole eco system, they want to end it. Forgotten the Guru

Ji they have, they talk that Guru Gobind Singh Ji said this, Guru Ji said

that, we must do this, we must do that, Oppressive they have become, yet

they sprung out of oppression to remove such action, how now they oppress

us today.

They say to me why bother with dialog, bani has all the answers.

I do not dispute that bani has all the answers but why is it I do not see

the same faith in he who speaks it. Why is it the khalsa who says it loves

its Guru do everything but love the Guru. How can I love the Guru if I do

not see my beloved khalsa love the Guru.

Today’s khalsa think that raising the sword is their authority, their

right, but why help where help is not needed. Trees are falling, animals

are dying, babies are crying does this not matter to God's army, is this

not a righteous cause, they talk of responsibility, where has your

responsibility gone now?

You draw your sword against the weak. You keep talking but you do not

listen, help is needed but you keep talking. Your mind is somewhere else

you are stuck in the past likening yourselves to the true khalsa, the

khalsa that I seek, the khalsa that will love me for me, the khalsa that

protected humanity and all that came with it including me.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji I know loves me as he would not have sacrificed

his sons for me. He was the perfect master of his time, in tune with the lord.

If he is all he is said to be then I know he has already met me as he is

said to be the lord himself. If the lord was satisfied when he created me

then why does the khalsa his army look down on me as if I a

m the devil

himself.

I stress again how can I love my Guru if I am told he does not love me.

The khalsa today say they are not khals or pure then what has the lord

given you that he has not given me. Some would say Amrit. If that is the

case then I do not want this physical Amrit.

The Amrit that I want is the amrit that Guru Gobind Singh Ji begged

for. I want the amrit that will allow me to sacrifice my head. I want the amrit

that will allow me to be sawn in half. I want the amrit that will not let

my hair be cut, instead my scalp. I want the amrit that will allow me to

watch my children be cut into pieces. I want the amrit that will allow me

to watch my son’s heart get ripped out and put into my mouth. I want the

amrit that will allow me to give aid to my dying enemy. I want the amrit

that will never fire on a running enemy. More importantly I want the amrit

that will take me home to my father the SatGuru himself.

****************************************************************************

The Passage above was written by lad who had no intention of writing

it. He just sat there one say and starting writing with his pen because he thought

that there was someone in the same room as him who could have been listening! He knew not of what he was writing, but when he'd finished, he realised that the revelation was an extraordinary one indeed!!!

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

^_^^_^^_^^_^^_^

the only way ppl are gna realise this is if we do sumthing about it n tell ppl wot the Khalsa is really here for. I think that this post has also brought me to my sences to what Khalsa really is, and that it is up to us to tell evry1 else wot it is. We Sikhs are born as leaders, and this will be a good way of showing it.

    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
    • Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May?  Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj.
