Dear Khalsa Rajinder Singh Jee,
Waheguru jee ka Khalsa Waheguru jee kee Fateh
As you are also well aware that before breathing his last on 7 October 1708, Guru Gobind Singh Sahib had ordained:
"SABH SIKHAN KO HUKAM HAI, GURU MANIYO GRANTH", which
means the "GURU GRANTH SAHIB" from Ek-Oankaar, Jupp to Mundavani at pages 1 to 1429. Since most of the Sikhs have not been obeying the said Directive, there has been frictions and groupism, which has resulted decline all around.
Efforts were made to unite the Sikhs during the Singh Sabha Lehr and Gurduara Sudhar Lehr (1873-1920) but due to the introduction of 'election system' through the enactment of The Sikh Gurdwaras Act 1925, the Sikhs became enemy of one another and this has been going on continuously. Shri PS Badal has now become a big Monster, who has swallowed his opponents even without elephant's teeth/tusk. SGPC President and Head Ministers are like his personal Peons & Chowkidars.
At the same time, Sikh Reht Maryada imposed by SGPC since 1945, is like the sweet-coated poison, which has made the Sikh Nation as a cancerous body beyond any treatment. Have a look at page 1 of the said Maryada. Whether the persons mentioned were representing Five Dear Ones or Sarbut Khalsa?
How it can be attributed to Akall Takht, which has no Gurmat or legal backing, neither mentioned in the Guru Granth Sahib nor reflected through The Sikh Gurdwaras Act 1925?
However, it is good to hear from time to time especially since 2008 as Khalsa Darshan Singh Jee has been endeavouring his best to bring the desired improvement through the 'homoeopathy' treatment instead of administering strong injection supported by immediate surgery by the top Specialist Doctors.
If Khalsa Darshan Singh jee including his close advisors and associates continue to follow the existing SRM in the name of Akall Takht, nothing is going to be achieved. Hence, we must get rid of those narrations, which are not mentioned in the Guru Granth Sahib, as well as to recast SRM, the Draft of which I can pass on to you for further amendment and consideration.
But in the meantime, I am forwarding an Article in respect of "Ardaas" having various inaccuracies.
I have already forwarded details on line but I don't know whether the same have been received by the Secretary GGDKP. By the way who are its other Executive Members and whether its Hqrs. would be in India or Canada?
With best wishes and Charhdi Kalaa,
Gurmit Singh,
