[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 128752, member: 35"] [B]Professor Darshan Singh: Apology Irrelevant[/B] Springfield, Virginia - Professor Darshan Singh Khalsa will not be apologizing to the jathedaars. The five takht jathedars earlier this month offered to allow back into the Panth anyone that had been excommunicated, if they submit an apology to the Akal Takht. But Darshan Singh, who was excommunicated in January, today said that apologizing to the Akal Takht would be meaningless. “You have to understand what you are apologizing for,” he said in an interview following his kirtan in Virginia. He went the Akal Takht when he was summoned, but was given thankhaa for not meeting with the jathedaars in the nearby office building, he said. He will not apologize for something he did not do. The Sikh Sangat of Virginia invited Professor Darshan Singh to do shabad kirtan for this morning’s divaan commemorating Guru Arjan Dev ji’s gurpurab. About 225 people attended the divan, many unaware that he would be doing the kirtan. On its Web site, the announcement originally stated that a famous raagi would be doing kirtan for gurpurab.
