One can see that Akali Nihang Guru
Gobind Singh’s questions are extremely complex and varied.
It is amazing when we have these questions set by the Guru himself
that no Sikh institution gives any importance to
these questions in their curriculum.

Sadly much
of the Guru's works have today been neglected and even insulted
by many mainstream Sikhs
These questions should form the highest point in any
Sikh institutions curriculum. Nihang Niddar Singh has himself personally
wrestled with these questions for the past many years. By attempting
to answer and answering these questions it is as if one spiritually
exercising their inner self and becomes stronger and stronger. Nihang
Niddar Singh wishes to thank his Sanatan Sikh Shastar Vidiya Gurdev,
Sanatan Sikh Shastar Vidiya Gurdev Akali Nihang Baba Mohinder Singh
(alias Baba 'Katapa' Singh) for introducing the magic of
these questions to him. They force an individual to delve deep into
his/her true self the Atma and thus realize Sat Guru.
Sikhs should not be backwards in their thinking, nor
should they fear asking awkward questions with regards to themselves
and there faith. Like all true men/women of God, they should embrace
the truth in whatever form or shape it reveals
itself. If that means on re-evaluation, one has to forsake one's
previously held beliefs, however so sacred they were once, then
so be it. He/she who is afraid of the truth cannot
be a Gumukh (a devotee of the eternal truth Sat Guru).
‘Gurmukhs do not cling to falsehood,
absorbed in truth they cling to truth.
A 'Sakt' (unbeliever) to truth does not cling, the false remain
attached to falsehood.
One absorbed in truth alone merges with the eternal truth [attains
salvation].’
‘Adi Guru Durbar’, Siri Raag, Pa.22
The truths, with regards to Sanatan Sikhism expounded
within our websites, books, 'Akhara' (training
centers), teachings and seminars are revealing, are intended to
rock the very foundations of modern Sikhism. If these foundations
are strong then the institutions will not only remain standing,
but, be all the stronger for it.
If the foundations are weak then these institutions
deserve to fall. The Akali Nihang Baba
Darbara Singh Sanatan Sikh Shastar Vidiya Ranjit Akhara does
all this for the best of reasons to invigorate modern Sikhism and
shake of its lethargy. We stress here that we ourselves do
not claim to be 'Gurus' or 'Brahmgianis' who know all.
All we do is open to any form of objective scrutiny.

We are but Sikhs like many other Sikhs seeking Sat
Guru. What skill or knowledge we have acquired on our never ending
spiritual quest we now through various mediums are trying to share
with all we can. For Akali Nihang Guru Gobind Singh has said:
‘Do not sit alone and eat [fruits of spiritual truth].
Share with others.’
Khalsa Rehitnaama
If on this 'Justjoo' (eternal journey
to seek knowledge) we ourselves are forced to re-evaluate our previous
stance, then we will gladly do so.
We implore all our detractors out
there, who are accusing us of being R.S.S.
(a right-wing political Hindu bigots/Hindu version of Sikh Akhand
Kirtani Jatha), worshipers of Hindu deities, egoists,
practitioners of the black arts, Indian government spies, Sikh enemies
within etc. to present actual concrete evidence
to defunct the Sanatan Sikh arguments we are making otherwise stay
silent and do not embarrass your self by revealing truly how ignorant
you are.
It has to remembered any fool can
rave rant and have opinions, however, respectable men/women of wisdom
present coherent counter-arguments to what they perceive as wrong.
These men/women of wisdom will also back their comments with appropriate
logical, reasonable and factualscriptural, historical, scientific
etc. evidence.
Utilisation of threats, hollow accusations, slander,
insults and harrasment are not the Guru's Khalsa way.
