  • Bhai Mani Singh Contribtion in Sikh History
    © 2018 JETIR August 2018, Volume 5, Issue 8 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) BHAI MANI SINGH CONTRIBTION IN SIKH HISTORY Simranjeet Kaur, M.Phil. Research Scholar, History Department, Guru Kashi University, Talwandi Sabo. Dr. Daljeet Kaur Gill, Assistant Professor, Department of History, Guru Kashi University, Talwandi Sabo. ABSTRACT Bhai Mani Singh is an important personality in Sikh History. He was a very good speaker and writer. He performed the service of a priest in Amritsar and played an important role in reforming the dismal conditions there. He spent all his life for saving the unity, integrity and honour of Sikh religion and promoted knowledge among the Sikhs by becoming the founder of the Giani Sect. He created an example for the coming generations by sacrificing himself at the age of ninety years. The sacrifice of Bhai Mani Singh filled every Sikh with a wave of anger and impassion. His unique martyrdom had turned the history of Sikhism forwards. His personality, in real meaning; is a source of inspiration for his followers. Sikh history, from the very beginning, has an important place in human welfare and social reforms for its sacrifices and martyrdoms. The ancestors and leaders of Sikh sect made important contributions at different times and places. Bhai Mani Singh showed his ability in different tasks initiated by Sikh Gurus by remaining in Sikh sect ant took the cause of social reforms to a new height. To keep the dignity of Sikh History intact, he sacrificed his life by getting himself chopped into pieces at the age of 90 for not being able to pay the prescribed taxes.1 While making an unparallel contribution in the Sikh history, Bhai Mani Singh performed the service of a priest in Amritsar and played an important role in reforming the dismal conditions there.

  • 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.

    International Journal of Scientific & Innovative Research Studies ISSN : 2347-7660 (Print) | ISSN : 2454-1818 (Online) BABA BANDA SINGH BAHADUR: A STUDY OF HIS INDIVIDUAL CONSCIOUSNESS OF SOVEREIGNTY (1708-1716) Manoj Kaumar ABSTRACT chihal nafar banjara Nanak–prasatan ,az navah Multan vagera-dar chabutara kotwali rasida, Agar musalman shawand bihatar, Vila biqushand. Barz rasid ki az qufr barghasht namishwand. Huqumshud – biqushand - October 11, 1711: Akhbarati-Darbar-i-Mualla The main objective of this research paper is to explore the nature of Sikh struggle for sovereignty and to throw light on their individual consciousness of the same. This struggle was mainly led by a historical character Baba Banda Singh Bahadur. The paper endeavours to show relevance of Banda Singh Bahadur in Sikh History. Historians and scholars have shown scant interest on this particular period. I will talk about the nature of Sikh sovereignty and resistance during early 18th century and also try to explain the concept of sovereignty in the context of Sikh struggle. I shall also try to argue that there was an emergence of a novel idea of sovereignty. I have, to the best of my ability, tried to answer these question thoroughly in my research. There is no doubt that sovereignty is a modern word but the actual meaning and sense of this word has evolved from ancient territorial connotations like chhetra, gram, subas, rajya and rashtra. The Sikh struggle has played an important role in the medieval history of india, especially northern India in the the 18th century. It took over 100 years of struggle to establish the Khalsa Raj under Maharaja Ranjeet Singh in Punjab.
