On July 1st 1984 the following pamphlet was released by the office of Siri Singh Sahib of the western hemisphere.

Below are a a collection of powerful quotes from the pamphlet followed by a full reproduction of the pamphlet. This historic document is particularly stunning because of the time when it was written. At a time when the pain and chaos was at its maximum this clear sighted and visionary work set a tone of leadership that we must act and believe that all is in the Will of God. Large challenges are not given to ordinary and small people. These sentiments are very much still relevant. 

"If this situation could happen in India-and it has happened-than it must be the Will of God because God is everything."

"Purity knows no death. Khalsa knows no death. It will live forever. Therefore, there shall be 960 million Khalsa. What a miracle that will be."

"Akal Takhat has reached its own martyrdom. Nobody could destroy Akal Takhat. I don't believe anybody could. If it was possible, than it could have happened before many times."

"This is the greatest sacrifice that has been made in the history of our lives. Akal Takhat has offered itself as a sacrifice."

"This is the first time Akal Takhat as an identity, as the ruling identity of the Khalsa, has sacrificed itself so that the mankind can live. It will bring the humanity to an understanding."

"No Sikh is going to accept the leadership of any man. We have accepted once and for all the leadership of the Siri Guru Granth. Therefore, I can explain to you in very clear consciousness that we shall not only win, but we will carry the day with us."

"Guru Arjan gave the sacrifice; we became victorious. Guru Teg Bahahdur gave the sacrifice; we became victorious. Guru Gobind Singh and his entire family gave the sacrifice, and we became victorious. Today our Akal Takhat has given the sacrifice; we shall not lose!"

"I am not going to question why Akal Takhat did what Akal Takhat did. If I question, than I am not a Sikh of the Guru... I know that if Akal Takhat has chosen to give its sacrifice, then it must be required."

"Akal Takhat wanted, at this moment, to awaken the Khalsa nation and this nation could not have come out of that sleep by any other means than through the sacrifice of Akal Takhat."

"You talk about Khalistan, Pakistan, this-stan, that-stan. I'll call it 'dhunistan.' The whole world is going to come under it. It is the greatest sacrifice ever made. It must bring the greatest positive result that could ever happen."
