Happy
Gurpurab. Remembering the 10th Sikh master Guru Gobind Singh. He built
the final institution on the earlier Masters' philosophy - the Khalsa;
as the guru's contemporary Bhai Nand Lal says:
Jalweh Aaraa-e Aan Noh Mash-ale Haq Frog
V Zulmat Zadaa-e Shab-e Kazb-o Drog
– Ganjnama (104)
“His kingdom makes the manifestation of the nine torches (nine Gurus
before him) brighter and removes the darkness and falsehood from this
world.”
*The Guru emphasized Equality: "Maanas Ki Jaat Sabhai
Ekai Pahchaanbo.– Akal Ustat, 15 (85) “Recognise the whole of mankind as
one race."
**Fight against Political Tyranny:
Chun Kar Az Hameh Heelat-e Dar Guzasht
Halal Ast Burdan B-shamshir Dast (Zafarnama, 22)
“When the entire stratagem employed for (solving) a problem are
exhausted, (only) then taking your hand to the sword is legitimate)
I take a bow for this man !
