Bottom Line..the SRM is a MAN MADE DOCUMENT. It can and has been CHANGED...numerous times... the Entire GURU KHALSA PANTH has the Valid Authority to Change.( A few illegal changes have been made surreptiously by the SGPC hanchos here and there...simply becasue the Guru Khalsa Panth gave them....PA..Power of Attorney !! The Most recent changes they instituted under this PA is the killing of the Nanakshai Calendar accepted universally by the Panth in 2003.(The NC doesnt come under SRM..but its part of what comes under SGPC)..IF this is allowed..then the NEXT CHANGE to SRM may make it even MORE DISCRIMINATORY..simply becasue the ANTI-WOMEN SANT SAMAAJ sanctioned maryadas that run in their DERAS and in Hazoor shaib/Patna Sahib will be the models for change !!! and the SGPC is in cahoots with the sants...as the NC issue proved beyond doubt.

2. The Guru Khalsa panth has to WAKE UP...Cancel its PA (Power of Attorney) carte blanche given to SGPC/Takhat jathedars which are paid employees of SGPC )..and write up a SRM that is Totally in line with the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji in Letter and Spirit.
