Dear all,

waheguru ji ka khalsa, waheguru ji ki fateh.

I am really delighted to note that there are Sikhs even now who do care for the supremecy of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji over any other thing and our only source of workship is Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji and the focus of worship is Akal Purakh. This is a statement which cannot be altered as it is the theme of Sikh philosophy. The Sikh ethos say" Puja Akal Ki, Parcha Shabad ( Guru Granth Sahib Ji) and Didar Khalsa ( Sikh Congregation).

Having said the above, I would like to stress that the History has to be safeguarded. Anything told to us as belonging to our Sikh Gurus or Sikh Heros cannot be taken on face value and need to be thoroughly investigated before adoption, because there has been much gap in custody of the articles of Sikh History. As such there is no harm in checking the authenticity of such articles before they are enshrined in the Sikh Museum. Surely, such articles cannot become the source of worship. Moreover, the Kalgi even if it is certified and proven to be of Guru Gobind Singh cannot be allowed to be placed at Sri Akal Takhat. Only Shastars (weapons) of Sikh Gurus and Sikh Heros are placed at the Akal Takhat. At present it has swords of Miri Piri belonging to Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji,Guru Gobind Singh Ji, Maharaja Ranjit Siingh, Akali Baba Phoola Singh Ji, Baba Deep Singh Ji shaheed's khanda ( 18 seer weight) besides other weapons.
