[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 128451, member: 35"] [b]Re: Would the Indian Army have entered the Golden Temple without backend Akaali support?[/b] gurveen ji Guru fateh! There is no evidence to support what you are saying here. That is the basis for the concerns expressed by ballym ji, by Gyani ji, and by me. You may recall at the beginning of this thread that I asked you whether the Akaali's you were referring to were the Nihangs or the modern political party. Now I am glad that I asked. One story: The Akaali Nihangs are believed to have shared authorship with the Nirmalas in the invention of the Sau Sakhis. A second version: the stories are based on recollectionos of Bhai Ram Kuir who descended from Bhai Buddha/Bhai Gurbakhsh Singh. In other words a told b who told c who told Santok Singh who then included some of the tales in Suraj Partap. These Sakhis were not written all at once. They emerged a few at a time. Perhaps to keep morale alive among the Nihang Akaalis when Sikhi was facing oblitaration through constant war with the Mughals. Later when the raj was on the brink of extinction by the British even more sakhis emerged. The story is always the same. A powerful leader has left the stage, we are on the brink of a catastrophe, and a new leader will rise up in prophesy to rescue the panth. 1. There is not even annecdotal evidence that Guru Gobind Singh wrote and/or handed down the Sau Sakhis, including Mangal Prakash. 2. We should reject the Sau Sakhis as valid sources of Sikh History and Sikh belief. 3. The Sau Sakhis do not describe events that occurred in 1984. The only way you could draw this conclusion would be by arguing that the same personalities and the same conditions magically recycled themselves over a period of more than 200 years. 4. By accepting these ideas no one is broadening any spectrum in order to understand 1984. Sikhs are misleading other Sikhs and people who want to understand Sikhism when they say that. 5. There are plenty of logical reasons to believe that Nirmalas, who make the questionable claim that their sect was begun by Guru Gobind Singh ji, invented these stories to strengthen their hand and their influence during the period following the death of the 10th Nanak. This was a time that was politically unstable and a vacuum of power and influence needed to be filled, or so they may have thought. [COLOR=Blue] We are coming very close to splitting this thread BTW.
