Khalsa raj is knocking at the doorsteps of your soul every time you wish you could have stopped an evil or change the world. Open the doors, let it in, stop wishing and become the change you want to see in the world. The people of this world must open themselves up to Khalsa Raj if they want to see a better world for themselves and for their generations to come. To welcome Khalsa Raj we must first understand what is Khalsa Raj, when it’s coming and how long it will stay.
Khalsa Raj is not the rule of Sikhs that have taken Amrit; it is the rule of every soul that has risen above the evils of this world. Khalsa Raj is to help everyone rise above the evils and be good. It does not promote Sikhism or any other religion as the right religion. All religions lead to Khalsa Raj, if they are followed the way they were meant to be. That is why it’s my humble request for all Sikhs to take Amrit and follow Guru Granth Sahib Ji to becoming Khalsa (a member of Waheguru’s army). And the request to all humans is to become Khaalas, a person that is pure. It is the duty of every Sikh that has taken amrit and become Khalsa to protect the people that have become Khaalas. This duty starts the moment you have been blessed with Amrit and lasts till the day you’re summoned to join Waheguru. Start your duty and Waheguru will show you the Khaalas that need you.
As ever Sikh steps up to their duty of being Khalsa the world will begin to change to welcome Khalsa Raj. A long time ago in the village of Saheva Guru Gobind Singh Ji predicted Khalsa Raj by using an example of a tiny pipal tree that would surpass a jand tree in which it grows to mark the time Khalsa Raj will begin. The full story can be found in the “Sau Sakhi Pothi” or various websites online. Some Sikhs believe this story and others do not but that is not the point of this sakhi. It is not to make Sikhs fill with pride and ego that Khalsa Raj is coming. It is to serve as a reminder that when we like the pipal tree overcome all attempt of being killed in the roots of this big tree of maya and surpass this tree as a community we shall bring about Khalsa Raj.
That Khalsa Raj shall last five thousand years till the times again begin to change. Nothing on this earth lasts forever; not good times, not bad times. Waheguru gives us bad times so we learn to appreciate the good times and not live in ego. That is why even though we are told the good times will come and everyone will be happy, we are reminded not to get so caught up in if that we forget Waheguru. The good times last as long as you live in his remembrance; the bad times only come when you forget him.
Let us all remember Waheguru, who sent us on this on earth and bring about Khalsa Raj. It’s not about being a Sikh, when Khalsa Raj is going to come or when it’s going to end. It is all about being true to yourself and true to your faith. You do your part to be true to yourself, Waheguru will do his part to make this a better world and his Khalsa will do their part to protect the better world he creates.
ਆਖਾ ਜੀਵਾ ਵਿਸਰੈ ਮਰਿਜਾਉ ॥ ਆਖਣਿ ਅਉਖਾਸਾਚਾ ਨਾਉ ॥
aakhaa jeevaa visarai mar jaao || aakhan aoukhaa saachaa naao ||
Chanting it, I live; forgetting it, I die. It is so difficult to chant the
True Name
ਸਾਚੇ ਨਾਮ ਕੀ ਲਾਗੈ ਭੂਖ ॥ ਉਤੁ ਭੂਖੈ ਖਾਇ ਚਲੀਅਹਿ ਦੂਖ ॥੧॥
saachae naam kee laagai bhookh || outh bhookhai khaae chaleeahi dhookh ||1||
If someone feels hunger for the True Name, that hunger shall consume his
pain.||1||
