The Sikh youth tried to alight the&lt;br /&gt;train but failed to do so. Just then a voice was heard&lt;br /&gt;from the back coach 'Sardarji Barah Baj gaye' (Sir&lt;br /&gt;it's 12 o'clock!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Sikh youth looked ! over at that voice maker who was&lt;br /&gt;a young Mischievous type of person and instead of&lt;br /&gt;showing any anger made a smile towards him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The smile made was so enigmatic that it seemed as if&lt;br /&gt;some type of truth lies behind it. Not able to resist&lt;br /&gt;my temptation, I walked towards him and asked why did&lt;br /&gt;he smile at that person who teased him. The Sikh youth replied, 'He was&lt;br /&gt;not teasing me but was asking for my Help'. I was surprised with these&lt;br /&gt;words and he told me that there was a big history behind that which one&lt;br /&gt;should know. I was eager to know the History and the&lt;br /&gt;Sikh youth narrated:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During 17th Century, when Hindustan was ruled by&lt;br /&gt;Mughals, all the Hindu people were humiliated and were&lt;br /&gt;treated like animals. Mughals treated the Hindu women&lt;br /&gt;as there own property and were forcing all Hindus to&lt;br /&gt;accept Islam and even used to kill the people if they&lt;br /&gt;were refusing to accept.That time, our ninth Guru, Sri&lt;br /&gt;Guru Teg Bahadarji came forward,in response to a&lt;br /&gt;request of some Kashmir Pandits to fight against all&lt;br /&gt;these cruel activities. Guruji told the Mughal emperor&lt;br /&gt;that if he could succeed in converting him to Islam,&lt;br /&gt;all the Hindus would accept the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, if he failed, he should stop all those activities&lt;br /&gt;The Mughal emperor happily agreed to that but even&lt;br /&gt;after lots of torture to Guruji and his fellow members&lt;br /&gt;he failed to convert him to Islam and Guruji along&lt;br /&gt;with his other four fellow members, were torture! d and sacrificed their&lt;br /&gt;lives in Chandni Chowk. Since the Mughals were unable to convert them&lt;br /&gt;to Islam they were assassinated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus Guruji sacrificed his life for the protection of&lt;br /&gt;Hindu religion. Can anybody lay down his life and that&lt;br /&gt;too for the protection of another religion? This is&lt;br /&gt;the reason he is still remembered as "Hind Ki&lt;br /&gt;Chaddar", shield of India . For the sake of whom he had sacrificed his&lt;br /&gt;life, none of the them came forward to lift his body, fearing that they&lt;br /&gt;would also be assassinated .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seeing this incident our 10th Guruji, Sri Guru Gobind&lt;br /&gt;Singhji (Son of Guru Teg Bahadarji) founder of khalsa&lt;br /&gt;made a resolution that he would convert his followers&lt;br /&gt;to such human beings who would not be able to hide&lt;br /&gt;themselves and could be easily located in thousands.&lt;br /&gt;At the start, the Sikhs were very few in numbers as&lt;br /&gt;they were fighting against the Mughal emperors. At&lt;br /&gt;that time, Nadir Shah raided Delhi in the year 1739&lt;br /&gt;and looted Hindustan and was carrying lot of Hindustan treasures and&lt;br /&gt;nearly 2200 Hindu women along with him. The news spread like a fire and&lt;br /&gt;was heard by Sardar Jassa Singh who was the Commander of the Sikh army&lt;br /&gt;at that time. He decided to attack Nadir Shah's Kafila on&lt;br /&gt;the same midnight . He did so and rescued all the Hindu&lt;br /&gt;women and they were safely sent to their homes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It didn't happen only once but thereafter whenever&lt;br /&gt;any Abdaalis or Iranis had attacked and looted&lt;br /&gt;Hindustan and were trying to carry the treasures and&lt;br /&gt;Hindu women along with them for selling them in Abdal&lt;br /&gt;markets, the Sikh army although fewer in numbers but&lt;br /&gt;were brave hearted and attacked them at midnight ,12&lt;br /&gt;O'clock and rescued women.&lt;br /&gt;After that time when there occurred a similar&lt;br /&gt;incidence, people started to contact the Sikh army for&lt;br /&gt;their help and Sikhs used to attack the raider's at&lt;br /&gt;Midnight , 12 O'clock . Nowadays, these "smart people"&lt;br /&gt;and some Sikh enemies who are afraid of Sikhs, have&lt;br /&gt;spread these words that at 12 O'clock , the Sikhs go&lt;br /&gt;out of their senses. This historic fact was the reason&lt;br /&gt;which made me smile over that person as I thought that&lt;br /&gt;his Mother or Sister would be in trouble and wants my&lt;br /&gt;help and was reminding me by saying off 'Sardarji&lt;br /&gt;Barah Baj Gaye' ."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PLEASE dont make fun of RELIGIONS ! as every religion is as pure as urs&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2945281346119674640-8642998591564370415?l=jaideepsinghbhatia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jaideepsinghbhatia.blogspot.com/feeds/8642998591564370415/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2945281346119674640&amp;postID=8642998591564370415' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2945281346119674640/posts/default/8642998591564370415'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2945281346119674640/posts/default/8642998591564370415'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jaideepsinghbhatia.blogspot.com/2008/06/importance-of-sikh-and-12-oclock.html' title='IMPORTANCE OF SIKH AND 12 o&apos;CLOCK'/><author><name>JAIDEEP SINGH BHATIA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01809160312985059777</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2945281346119674640.post-953150185794746102</id><published>2008-05-11T03:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-11T08:17:11.855-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SARDAR JOKES; WHY US?</title><content type='html'>sardar j i in a quiz contest ...Sardarji is in a Quiz Contest&lt;br /&gt; -&gt;1) How long was the 100 yr war?A) 116 B) 99 C) 100 D) 150&lt;br /&gt;Sardar says "I will skip this"&lt;br /&gt;2) In which month do the Russians celebrate the October Revolution?A) JANUARY B) SEPTEMBER C) OCTOBER D) NOVEMBER&lt;br /&gt;Sardar asks for help from general public&lt;br /&gt;3) Which of these was King George VI first name?A) EDER B) ALBERT C) GEORGE D) MANOELSardar asks for lucky cards&lt;br /&gt;4) The Canary islands, in the Pacific Ocean, has its name based on which animal:A) CANARY BIRD B) KANGAROO C) PUPPY D) RAT #Sardar gives up&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If u think you are indeed clever and laughed at Sardar's replies, then please check the answers below:#1) The 100 year war lasted 116 years from 1337-14532) The October revolution is celebrated in November3) King George's first name was Albert.
