My new Amrit name PRITAM SINGH KHALSA
Today Waheguru and Guru has blessed me with the eternal nectar called Amrit. At first I had no idea wher Amrit char was being held. I went to West Sacramento Gurdwara, and was there before GuruJi was even prakashed by far. So I just sat in Gurus Darbar waiting for a sign or something. I stood up for GuruJi entering, Matha Tekhna, and then listening to the daily Hukamnama. I still sat there wondering how they were going to setup the Amrit ceremony in 10 min. Then I saw GranthiJi walk back into the Sukh Asan room. I was thinking, why? Then he was holding GuruJi on his head and walking in my direction. I did Matha Tekhna and was debating whether I should stay and possibly miss the ceremony or follow the Guru to whereever GuruJi was going. I just thought I should follow the Guru to who knows where. So I caught up to GuruJi and was walking for a while and we reached the stairs way far away from the Sukh Asan room. I followed GuruJi and GranthiJi upstairs and lone and behold I saw white sheets laid on the floor a Paalki Sahib and a Holy bowl and an Amrit Khanda laying in a bowl covered with a white cloth. I sat and listened to the Hukam while a few older women and an old man walked in and bam, Panj Pyare and two Nihang guards standing beyond the closed door.{I would have missed Amrit if I hadn't of followed GuruJi upstairs} WOW. I feel so thankful for the insight to follow the Guru upstairs which I didnt know what was upstairs. I thought the ceremony was going to be in the giant Darbar downstairs.Thus the Amrit ceremony begun and ended, and I asked to be renamed from this new Hukam. The Panj Pyare then huddled together and named me PRITAM SINGH KHALSA. I LOVE WAHEGURU, SIKHI,THE GURU,GURBANI,AND SANGAT,AND MY FAMILY. Nothing could stop me from doing otherwise. Dont ever forsake anything GOD given. SatNAm Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji ki fateh!
