Reg: Gurmatt Taksaal Calendar ?


Reg: Gurmatt Taksaal Calendar ?

Sardar Sarjit Singh ji
Piare Bhai Sahib Sardar Sarjit Singh ji and other brothers,

Waheguru ji ka Khalsa,
Waheguru ji ki Fateh!

I am answering your question as to the best of my neuro-computer. I believer Dr Harjinder Singh Dilgeer's suggested 'The Sikh Calendar was first published in 1995 in one of the issues of the World Sikh News (WSN; now out of print). The WSN had been a weekly publication in Gurmukhi and English languages, published from Stockton, CA, USA, under the Editorship of Dr Gurinder Singh Grewal, a cardiologist by profession. Because of the financial difficulties, the WSN hadno option but to cease its publication with a life span of over 10-year.

Dr Dilgeer's suggested 'The Sikh Calendar' had been in publication well before the controversial "Nananshahi Calendar" alias Purewalshahi jantri that had been no where. The latter has been 'controvercial' ever since it came into discussion and publication as well. I am sure Sardar Makhan Singh Purewal as well as Dr Dilgeer both know the weaknesses of the Nanakshahi Calendar/jantri, which is known as Mr Pal Singh's calendar, Purewal's jantri; Purewal himself described as Surajvanshi. This jantri has been full of controversies well before it was brought into publication, because of the involvements of people like Sadh Satlani (now deceased), derewalas and/or Sadh Sant Samaj. His (Purewal's) apparent reason had been to mustering support from various other sources, including the Sikh Institutions, for his jantri to be accepted by the Shiromani Gurdwara Prabhandhak Committe (SGPC). 

Although I posed questions, in writings and at the face, to Mr Pal Singh Purewal in a meeting which  took place in a local Gurdwara's library-cum-meeting room on various matters. My questions to Purewal had been would he tell what  Masayas, Sangrands, Pooranmashis, Lohri,  Sikhs' enemy's Republic and Independence dates have been doing in his Nanakshahi jantri, etc., and how did these dates relates to the Nanakshahi calendar (Purewal's Nanakshahi Calendar alias Purewal's jantri)? Later, as I believe it, Purewal had dropped the Sikhs' enemy's 'dates' from his calendar. Further, when he changed the Gurpurab date of Sahib Guru Gobind Singh ji from the month of 'December' to the 5th January, with the royal assent of one of the traitors of the Guru Khalsa Panth, jathedar (band leader) Gurcharan Tohra, the then President of the SGPC, I lost my interests and trust in Pal Singh Purewal, his Nanakshahi Calendar or more so in the Purewal's jantri.

Indeed, Dr Dilgeer's suggested 'The Sikh Calendar', which had been in publication until 1999 or 2010, but I came across criticisms from my brothers and sisters of the Guru Khalsa Panth (for details, please see Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa's e-message of 14th January, 2013). Major criticisms, for example, had been on the months and days of the week (i. e., Monday to Sunday, as suggested by Dr Dilgeer initially). Dr Dilgeer's suggested 'The Sikh Calendar' remained in publication until 2010. It had been published in The Sikhs: Past and Present, followed by its successor The International Journal of Sikh Affairs ISSN 1481-5435 (an official organ of The Sikh Educational Trust) and as 'The Sikh Calendar'.

Since 2011, Dr Dilgeer's suggested Sikh Calendar has been modified, amended, and received a new name, The Sikh Historical Calendar ISSN 1708-9220 under the guidance of my older brother Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa. Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa's suggestions have been  followed since 2011, The Sikh Historical Calendar has ISSN 1708-9220.  This calendar is regularly updated best to my knowledge, and mailed internationally via electronic mail in its e-format since 201. Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa is consulted on the The Sikh Historical Calendar ISSN 1708-9220.

This is my knowledge about Dr Dilgeer's and Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa's suggested "The Sikh Historical Calendar". I would like to mention that the change in Gurpurab of Guru Nanak Sahib has been established in The Sikh Historical Calendar, as 20th October. Further, additions and deletions may be made as the Sikh History from the Sikhs' point of view warrants. My older brother Sirdar Gurmit Singh Khalsa, Justice of Peace, AUSTRALIA, is kept up to date.

I believe I have given far more information than required, as I do not function in any secrecy and NOT what is not in the interests of the Guru Khalsa Panth.

I would like add here one more point that Mr Purewal you, with the Guru Khalsa Panth's traitor Gurcharan Tohra, have been out to disrespect with the Gurpurab dates of Sahib Guru Gobind Singh ji and let me tell you that "you play with your Date of Birth to the Revenue Canada to submit your Tax Return and to the Canadian Passport Office" and let me know if your playing with your own Date of Birth allowed you by both Canadian agencies to have your Tax Return accepted and the passport (your) issued, respectively?" I do not have any reply from Mr Purewal. Yes, Purewal has been successful to play with the Guru Khalsa Panth, but he will never succeed with the matters concerned with the Governmen of Canada.

Is anyone of my brothers has any further question relating to my reply, please let me hearing from you.

Best wishes and warmest regards.

Your brother,
