Its easy to joke on a Sardar, but It's too
difficult to be a Sardar"
I was standing at jalandhar station when my
attention went towards a Sikh youth standing
near me wearing a Black turban having a long
beard and wearing a kirpan over his shirt.
After a while, one local train arrived, which
was totally packed. The Sikh youth tried to
alight the train but failed to do so. Just then a
voice was heard from the back coach 'Sardarji
Barah Baj gaye' (Sir it's 12 o'clock!)
The Sikh youth looked over at that voice
maker who was a young Mischievous type of
person and instead of showing any anger
made a smile towards him.
The smile made was so enigmatic that it
seemed as if some type of truth lies behind it.
Not able to resist my temptation, I walked
towards him and asked why did he smile at
that person who teased him.
The Sikh youth replied, 'He was not teasing
me but was asking for my Help'. I was
surprised with these words and he told me
that there was a big history behind that
which one should know. I was eager to know
the History and the Sikh youth narrated:
During 17th Century, when Hindustan was
ruled by Mughals, all the Hindu people were
humiliated and were treated like animals.
Mughals treated the Hindu women as there
own property and were forcing all Hindus to
accept Islam and even used to kill the people
if they were refusing to accept.That time, our
ninth Guru, Sri Guru Teg Bahadarji came
forward, in response to a request of some
Kashmir Pandits to fight against all these cruel
activities.
Guruji told the Mughal emperor that if he
could succeed in converting him to Islam, all
the Hindus would accept the same. But, if he
failed, he should stop all those activities. The
Mughal emperor happily agreed to that but
even after lots of torture to Guruji and his
fellow members he failed to convert him to
Islam and Guruji along with his other four
fellow members, were tortured and sacrificed
their lives in Chandni Chowk. Since the
Mughals were unable to convert them to
Islam they were assassinated.
Thus Guruji sacrificed his life for the
protection of Hindu religion.
Can anybody lay down his life and that too for
the protection of another religion?
This is the reason he is still remembered as
"Hind Ki Chaddar", shield of India. For the sake
of whom he had sacrificed his life, none of
them came forward to lift his body, fearing
that they would also be assassinated.
Seeing this incident our 10th Guruji, Sri Guru
Gobind Singhji (Son of Guru Teg Bahadarji)
founder of khalsa made a resolution that he
would convert his followers to such human
beings who would not be able to hide
themselves and could be easily located in
thousands. At the start, the Sikhs were very
few in numbers as they were fighting against
the Mughal emperors. At that time, Nadir Shah
raided Delhi in the year 1739 and looted
Hindustan and was carrying lot of Hindustan
treasures and nearly 2200 Hindu women
along with him. The news spread like a fire
and was heard by Sardar Jassa Singh who
was the Commander of the Sikh army at that
time. He decided to attack Nadir Shah's Kafila
on the same midnight. He did so and rescued
all the Hindu women and they were safely
sent to their homes.
It didn't happen only once but thereafter
whenever any Abdaalis or Iranis had attacked
and looted Hindustan and were trying to
carry the treasures and Hindu women along
with them for selling them in Abdal markets,
the Sikh army although fewer in numbers but
were brave hearted and attacked them at
midnight, 12 O'clock and rescued women.
After that time when there occurred a similar
incidence, people started to contact the Sikh
army for their help and Sikhs used to attack
the raider's at Midnight, 12 O'clock.
Nowadays, these "smart people" and some
Sikh enemies who are afraid of Sikhs, have
spread these words that at 12 O'clock, the
Sikhs go out of their senses. This historic fact
was the reason which made me smile over
that person as I thought that his Mother or
Sister would be in trouble and wants my help
and was reminding me by saying off 'Sardarji
Barah Baj Gaye'.
