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 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). -
