On June 6, 1984, the Akal Takhat, the seat of religious authority for
Sikhs, was attacked. Many remember the tanks and bullets and thousands
of lives lost, yet through the lens of the unseen, we see God in
everything. Like the phoenix that rises from the ashes, Khalsa will
always prevail.
The Siri Singh Sahib believed it is an opportunity - a wake up call.
Now is the time for Khalsa to unite in the spirit of the Undying,
Infinite Truth embodied in the Akal Takht. In honor of all sacrifices
that have paved this path we walk together, let this anniversary awaken
the spirit of the Khalsa within you!
Sikh Dharma International invites you to celebrate this awakening with us. Starting with Baisakhi of 2009, we will release 11 historic video Gurdwara lectures by the Siri Singh Sahib in which he explains the significance of this event in depth and how it relates to Sikhs and the whole of humanity. One new video will be posted on-line each week, leading up to the 25th Anniversary of the Akal Takhat Martyrdom. Join us in this journey of awakening in this season of renewal.
