Guru Pyare Sadh Sangat Ji,

I would like to take this opportunity presented by the Guru Khalsa Panth Sahib, to ask for forgiveness and the Sangats compassion, for all the mistakes I have made knowingly or unknowingly. If I had the maturity that I have now with age and Sangat. I would have done things differently. For this, here I am now with my hand pressed together to ask for forgiveness. I have made many many transgressions from maryada, and I make a humble plea to Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, the Singhs, and Sadh Sangat to find it in your hearts to forgive me. With Gurus Kirpa and the guidance and support of the Sangat, I have no doubt that even a sinner like me can be graced by Guru Kalgidhar. This is possible as Guru Arjan Dev Ji says in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj:

sorat(h) mehalaa 5
Sorat'h, Fifth Mehla:
ham mailae thum oojal karathae ham niragun thoo dhaathaa
We are filthy, and You are immaculate, O Creator Lord; we are worthless, and You are the Great Giver.
ham moorakh thum chathur siaanae thoo sarab kalaa kaa giaathaa 1
We are fools, and You are wise and all-knowing. You are the knower of all things. 1
maadhho ham aisae thoo aisaa
O Lord, this is what we are, and this is what You are.
ham paapee thum paap kha(n)ddan neeko t(h)aakur dhaesaa rehaao
We are sinners, and You are the Destroyer of sins. Your abode is so beautiful, O Lord and Master. Pause
thum sabh saajae saaj nivaajae jeeo pi(n)dd dhae praanaa
You fashion all, and having fashioned them, You bless them. You bestow upon them soul, body and the breath of life.
niraguneeaarae gun nehee koee thum dhaan dhaehu miharavaanaa 2
We are worthless - we have no virtue at all; please, bless us with Your gift, O Merciful Lordand Master. 2
thum karahu bhalaa ham bhalo n jaaneh thum sadhaa sadhaa dhaeiaalaa
You do good for us, but we do not see it as good; You are kind and compassionate, forever and ever.
thum sukhadhaaee purakh bidhhaathae thum raakhahu apunae baalaa 3
You are the Giver of peace, the Primal Lord, the Architect of Destiny; please, save us, Your children! 3
thum nidhhaan attal sulithaan jeea ja(n)th sabh jaachai
You are the treasure, eternal Lord King; all beings and creatures beg of You.
kahu naanak ham eihai havaalaa raakh sa(n)than kai paashhai 4617
Says Nanak, such is our condition; please, Lord, keep us on the Path of the Saints. 4617

It would be nice to see that video in order to see who the Singhs were that you apologised in front of and who the Panj Singhs were. Perhaps having it as a link on your blog would be best so that the rest of the sangat can see proof behind these words.

Anonymous Bha Jee, would you like it if when you went Pesh it was recorded and put on the net?

I dont fink anybody would like it Bha Jee. Plus, when the Panj Pyaras give Amrit Paan its done in private. That is respecting the marayadah.

The apology is for all the sins I have committed.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh. It takes a big man to

A. Be able to see he has made mistakes and
B. Be able to admit to them and ask forgiveness.

Funny story when I met Kamalroop Singh I was just getting into the Sikhi fold. He had come down from U.K and this was the first time I met amritdharis who were older and I thought he was really cool. His version of sikhi differed greatly from mine but I felt he had genuine love for guru and gurus sikhs. I was young and didn't know about all the sikhi conterversies than. I didn't even know what AKJ was.

Anyways long story short I hadn't taken amrit but I didn't eat meat, drink and I kept my kesh.

So Kamalroop Singh asked me Singh why don't you take amrit and I replied I'm not ready yet. (typical answer I hear a lot). And I will never forget what he said to me, infact when people I meet now say that, I always quote kamalroop singh. He told me singh you think.. You have to become a brahm gianni then take amrit, but it works the other way around. You have to take amrit first and then you can start your journey towards God.

The next day I believe, me and kamalroop were sitting in the darbar and the stage secetery came on and announced a last minute amrit sanchaar happening that weekend. Kamalroop Singh looked at me and smiled and I was like yeah thats definantly my guru telling me.

So thats how I took amrit years and years ago. After which I heard all the conterversy I decided to stay away from it all. But I always had that respect because he was the one who pushed me towards my Guru.
