  • The Institution of the Akal Takht: the Transformation of Authority in Sikh History
    religions Article The Institution of the Akal Takht: The Transformation of Authority in Sikh History Gurbeer Singh Department of Religious Studies, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521, USA; [email protected] Abstract: The Akal Takht is considered to be the central seat of authority in the Sikh tradition. This article uses theories of legitimacy and authority to explore the validity of the authority and legitimacy of the Akal Takht and its leaders throughout time. Starting from the initial institution of the Akal Takht and ending at the Akal Takht today, the article applies Weber’s three types of legitimate authority to the various leaderships and custodianships throughout Sikh history. The article also uses Berger and Luckmann’s theory of the symbolic universe to establish the constant presence of traditional authority in the leadership of the Akal Takht. Merton’s concept of group norms is used to explain the loss of legitimacy at certain points of history, even if one or more types of Weber’s legitimate authority match the situation. This article shows that the Akal Takht’s authority, as with other political religious institutions, is in the reciprocal relationship between the Sikh population and those in charge. This fluidity in authority is used to explain and offer a solution on the issue of authenticity and authority in the Sikh tradition. Keywords: Akal Takht; jathedar; Sikh institutions; Sikh Rehat Maryada; Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC); authority; legitimacy Citation: Singh, Gurbeer. 2021.

  • Savethepanth Southern California Sikhs Appeal to Shiromani Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee January 2010/Save the Panth.Ht
    SaveThePanth Southern California Sikhs Appeal to Shiromani Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee http://www.worldsikhnews.com/27 January 2010/Save The Panth.ht Over 70 representative of various Sikh organizations that have been doing seva of various gurughars for over 40 years in Southern California met for a series of meetings, exchanges missives, sent communications to each other and thoroughly discusssed the matter between January 3, 2010 and January 10th. It all began with a meeting at Guru Nanak Sikh Temple, Buena Park, CA and continued till this final draft was arrived at. January 10th, 2010 The President Shiromani Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee Amritsar, Punjab (India) Respected Sir, Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh. Please accept the greetings from the Sikh Sangat of Southern California and best wishes for the coming New Year 2010. Recent developments within the Panth have caused great concern to the Sikh Sangat at Global level. We feel that appropriate steps need to be taken immediately to solve the resulting problems which, if ignored, may lead to disastrous results for the well being of the Panth. Since we greatly respect and consider the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbhandhak Committee (SGPC) and Sri Akal Takhat as the sole supreme organization of the Sikhs, we are presenting below our earnest feelings and concerns to you and hope that immediate attention will be given to these issues. INTRODUCTION For some time anti-Panthic forces are active to dissolve social unity and harm religious identity of Sikhism. As a result Sikh ideology including tenets, history and code of conduct are in danger. For example, these malevolent/antipanthic forces are confusing and misleading the Sikh followers about the status of Dasam Granth, relevance of Nanakshahi Calendar and sacredness of Sikh Code of Conduct (Sikh Rehat Maryada approved 1932-1945).

Guru Roop Khalsa Jio, Waheguru Jee Ka Khalsa Waheguru Jee Kee Fateh. Akhand Keertani Jatha completely and unequivocally rejects the inflammatory, divisive, and damaging statement made by the self-appointed so-called ‘Jathedar’, Iqbal Singh, at the 350th auspicious celebrations of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj at Takhat Sri Harmandir Sahib Patna on January 5th, 2017. 1. Using an occasion of Sri Dasmesh Jee’s 350th Parkash Purab to issue such an unethical Hukamnama proves that enemies of the Panth always look for big gatherings to do more damage to Khalsa Panth. The so called ‘Hukamnama’ was a cover-up for a direct attack and challenge to the supreme authority of the Sri Akal Takhat Sahib and Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee published Sikh Rehat Maryada. The purpose of the Sikh Rehat Maryada is to keep Khalsa Panth unified on one platform. Every Sikh is duty bound to established protocols and uphold this basic doctrine. No Takhat Jathedar, especially the one who has been rejected by the Panth, has any authority to change it.

It is not merely a Scripture but holds the status of a Living Guru from which the Sikhs seek counsel for their spiritual as well as temporal affairs. Its first canonization took place in the hands of Guru Arjan in 1604 and it was known as Adi Granth. As it is in the custody of descendents of Dhir Mal who had settled at Kartarpur (near Jalandhar), thus it came to be known as Kartarpuri Bir. The final canonization of the Sikh Scripture was done by Guru Gobind Singh in 1706 at Damdama Sahib, Talwandi Sabo. The Text finalized by the Tenth Master was known as Damdami Bir of the Sikh Scripture. It was the Damdami version of the Sikh Scripture on which the Tenth Master has bestowed Guuship before his demise in Oct. 1708 at Nanded. The text of the Sikh Scripture before taking its final shape has passed through various stages of its history. The present study intends to focus on its journey and the textual issues involved in it. In order to identify the features of a particular version this study we will also look into the textual variations that had crept into the manuscripts of Sikh Scripture prior to 1706. Finally, it will look into the characteristic features of the Damdami version and the exact place i.e. Damdama Sahib where the final canonization was done.

  • Eng Nanakshahi Calendar Understaning
    UNDERSTANDING Mool Nanakshahi Calendar Before deciding whether Nanakshahi Calendar is good or bad, let us understand some of the basic Calendar fundamentals. 1. Any Calendar is nothing but a system by which the beginning, length, and subdivisions of a particular time period are fixed, and then those subdivisions are counted and printed; nothing more, nothing less. 2. Historically, when there was no electricity, no mass scale education, or any convenient sources of light; then what gave us, the humans any sense of realization of time, were the rising and setting of the two bright objects in the sky; the Sun and the Moon. 3. Wherein, for planning our short term events, we slowly learnt to count the number of Solar days of the Moon on our fingers from the day of the FULL Moon, or NO Moon; culminating into what we call as a lunar month; that consists of (29+a fraction) of Solar days (not Lunar days, because days are always Solar). 4. Then, moving forward, for planning our long term events, we slowly realized a connection between the changes of the seasons, that were/are connected with the Sun, and its very slow but varying length of its days/nights and the locations of its sunrise and sunset in the sky; culminating into what we call as a solar year. Which in turn = (365+a fraction) of solar days (wherein a solar day in fact = a day+ a night). Then for a calendar, such solar year stands subdivided into solar months, solar days, hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds, and microseconds etc.

  • The Shiromani Akali Dal and Emerging Ideological Cleavages in Contemporary Sikh Politics in Punjab: Integrative Regionalism Versus Exclusivist Ethnonationalism
    143 Jugdep Chima: Ideological Cleavages in Sikh Politics The Shiromani Akali Dal and Emerging Ideological Cleavages in Contemporary Sikh Politics in Punjab: Integrative Regionalism versus Exclusivist Ethnonationalism Jugdep Singh Chima Hiram College, USA ________________________________________________________________ This article describes the emerging ideological cleavages in contemporary Sikh politics, and attempts to answer why the Shiromani Akali Dal has taken a moderate stance on Sikh ethnic issues and in its public discourse in the post-militancy era? I put forward a descriptive argument that rhetorical/ideological cleavages in contemporary Sikh politics in Punjab can be differentiated into two largely contrasting poles. The first is the dominant Akali Dal (Badal) which claims to be the main leadership of the Sikh community, based on its majority in the SGPC and its ability to form coalition majorities in the state assembly in Punjab. The second pole is an array of other, often internally fractionalized, Sikh political and religious organizations, whose claim for community leadership is based on the espousal of aggressive Sikh ethnonationalism and purist religious identity. The “unity” of this second pole within Sikh politics is not organizational, but rather, is an ideological commitment to Sikh ethnonationalism and political opposition to the moderate Shiromani Akali Dal. The result of these two contrasting “poles” is an interesting ethno-political dilemma in which the Akali Dal has pragmatic electoral success in democratic elections
