Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
I am in agreement with the decision of the Five Chiefs of the Takhats. Mr Darshan Singh put up a futile and very egistic stand in this matter. He deserved to be awarded this treatment for two reasons:

1. He has no right to criticise the Bani of Dhann Dhann Guru Gobind Singh ji.
2. He has no right to use derogatory language for The Dasam Granth Sahib, one of our holy scriptures after Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
3. He has spread lies that there are two Gurus of Sikhs being promoted by two of the Takhats. The fact is that our Ardas in every place on the face o this earth starts with same Stanza and in it clear wording used is: Dasaam Patshahiaan ke saroop Dhan Dhann Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji ka Dhyaan Dhar ke bolo ji Waheguru. No one ever says "Do Granth Sahib ji ka Dhyaan dharke..." . And regarding Parkash: This Dasam Granth Sahib is a large volume, and must be opened with respect because t has Gurbani of Sri Kalghidhar ji Mharaj. It is importanmt to note that the peehra of Dasam Granth is smaller in size and always lower than the Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji. So there is no point of disrespect of one granth against the other. The two granths Sahib's are not competing with each other sitting next to each other. Just as where there are more than two Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji parkash at the same place are not competing. Or where Sri Japuji is also being Parkash in Gutka form next to sro Guru Granth Sahib, it is not competing or trying to lower the respect of Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji. Just as if you say Sat Sri Akal to your Chacha and hug your father standing next to each other, there is no intention to show disrespect to one aginst the other. Both have their place in mind of the person. This foolishness must stop. The argument is completely "Thothee" - Hollow.
4. The ragi is not a "great scholar of Gurbani" as being promoted because he has been telling openly that he had been singing Bani from only Amar Kirtan and never consulted the sources all his life. What a stupid thing to do. This tells us how well read this man was till he turned Sattar_Bahattaryia (70's).
5. No one can and should challenge authority f Sri Akal Takhat Sahib.
