Baba Deep Singh draws his line in the sand with his Sikh Saint-Soldiers
ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਕਾਲਪ੝ਰ੝ਖ ਕੀ ਫ਼ੌਜ ॥ ਪ੝ਰਗਟਿਓ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਪ੝ਰਮਾਤਮ ਕੀ ਮੌਜ ॥

khhaalasaa akaal purakh ki fauj. pragattiou khhaalasaa pramaatham kee mauj.

Khalsa is God's army. Khalsa is sustained by the Will of the Almighty

The purpose of the Khalsa as defined by by the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh the 10th Sikh Guru who established the order of Sant Sipahi (Saintly Warriors) who were also to always act according to their Gurus' teachings, rules & ethics of nothing more than charity, love & service to human beings. The constitution of the KHALSA being the Sri Guru Granth Sahib.

This brings unprecedented responsibilities and duties that need to be fulfilled by the Khalsa. If the Khalsa is truly Akal Purakh's fauj or army then the duties of the Khalsa is to serve the Almighty and the entire people of the world. This concept is all encompassing and cannot be used in a narrow sense to refer to the duties of the Khalsa to a small sect or elite group of men/women who share similar beliefs for the Khalsa must serve the wider world community as that is the goal set by the Gurus. If the Khalsa fails to serve this wider goal, it will be lacking in its duties to their Guru.

Guru's thoughts and statement

Guru Gobind Singh has very clearly set the mission for the Sikhs to tread this unique path. The Khalsa is to serve all the peoples of the World – only then can it be Akal Purakh ki Fauj. When the Khalsa starts serving the needs of a few, or starts being concerned only with itself, it will fail in its duties as set out by Guru Gobind Singh.

Further thoughts

Khalsa Kaal Purakh Ki Fauj is the Line of Saint-Soldiery present in Sarabloh Granth, written by Guru Gobind Singh. The text is present under title Bisanupad Dhanuaki Dev Plasi on line number 459. This has been misinterpreted/misprinted by ignorant people and the line Khalsa AKAL purakh di Fauj became more popular but in reality it's Kaal Purakh. Even Ragis, kirtanis use to Sing Akal Purakh without caring of truth. In common people Akal Purakh ki fauj is more popular.


ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਕਾਲਪ੝ਰ੝ਖ ਕੀ ਫ਼ੌਜ ॥
Khalsa is Army of Kaal Purakh(Hukam of Waheguru)

ਪ੝ਰਗਟਿਓ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਪ੝ਰਮਾਤਮ ਕੀ ਮੌਜ ॥੪੫੯॥੯੯੦॥੩੩੦੯॥ਦਸਕ ੧॥॥
It's sustained by the Will of the Almighty

Kaal is destroyer and it's Hukam or Command of Akaal and Khalsa = Sikh are strict followers of Hukam of God(in Japuji Hukam Rajai Chalna). Mahakaal = God is the one who gives Hukam.
