  • Taking Amrit: Initiation
    Sikhism Taking Amrit: Initiation Taking Amrit: Initiation Summary: Established by the tenth guru, taking amrit is the initiation ceremony that allows Sikhs to become members of the Khalsa. Amrit means immortal nectar and refers to the bowl of sugar water that is prayed over and stirred throughout the ceremony by five members of the Khalsa. At the end, the initiate drinks the amrit, which is then sprinkled on the initiate’s hair and face. Upon completion of the ceremony, the initiate becomes a member of the Khalsa. When a Sikh woman or man comes of age, she or he is eligible to join the Khalsa, or the “alliance of the pure.” The rite of initiation is called “taking amrit.” It is expected that sometime within the life of a Sikh he or she will undergo this initiation, and all Sikhs aspire to do so. It is not necessarily for the young, though young people are often inspired to commitment to the Khalsa. As a writer for the American Sikh Review explains, “A Sikh should only take amrit when he is mature enough to realise the nature of the obligations which full membership of the Khalsa demands.” Today in the U.S., taking amrit is one of the most important ceremonies in the life of a Sikh. The name refers to the drinking of immortal nectar (amrit), an essential part of the ceremony of commitment. The proper name of the rite is khande di pahul, the “nectar of the double-edged sword.” A bowl of water with sugar crystals is stirred with a double edged sword, while sacred hymns are recited, infusing the nectar with the power of the divine word.

  • Grace of Waheguru
    Spiritual Strength of Women: 01/11/01 Six-part Series [First Edition] Page 1 Spiritual Strength Of WOMEN: Six-part series [First edition] Produced and Distributed by the Grace of Waheguru Sewa by Mandeep Singh Be the Best, a Kaur Princess! A Brave Lioness, with Pure Success!! Spiritual Strength of Women: 01/11/01 Six-part Series [First Edition] Page 2 INTRODUCTION A warm welcome given to our esteemed readers to the first series of the ‘Spiritual Strength Of Women’, which was exhausted within 6 weeks of its release and is a great joy and encouragement to me. This is clear proof of the fact that the lovers of Sikhi yearn to know its history and follow its tradition. In this series, an attempt has been made to compile a few short stories together of Sikh women from our history who left shining examples of the great Spiritual Strength derived from Satguru jee. Sikh history conveyed to us by our Gurus and ancestors must be told to the entire world. Hundreds of thousands of noble Sikhs and martyrs need to be acknowledged. I have ventured to humbly submit just a few of these that have been used in this series. Summaries of the stories are as follows: The first part is about the courage shown by one lady to enter Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple), knowing that she will never come out of the complex alive. Her conversation between the two guards trying to dissuade her form entering and her astounding responses are something to really think about for ourselves. The second is about how one woman and her tender-aged young son who take on five armed Turk soldiers who were lead to their hideout by a Hindu Pundit who betrayed the mother and son.
