Sri Akaal Ji Sahai

I have requested that these pages infringing copyright should be removed from your website. I have left messages on the SikhiWiki helpdesk (c/o Gurujot Singh) and emailed Gurujot Singh directly. As yet I have not received a reply, nor seen any positive action from SikhiWiki in removing these pages.

If they are not removed, they are in violation of copyright as stated on www.sarbloh.info - as such you are liable according to Copyright laws of both the USA and International Law (ie, covering Uk and Europe). Please remove these pages. if they are not, I have been advised by my lawyers and the laywers of interested parties (the Akali Nihangs, Udasis, SewaPanthis and Nirmalas on who's behalf www.sarbloh.info has been produced) to inform you that we can begin legal proceedings against SikhiWiki and its owners.

Also, Nihang Niddar Singh, Jathedar of Budha Dal UK, and Parmjit Singh (author of Warrior Saints who's work is also on www.sarbloh.info) have been informed regarding this issue. I am obliged to inform you that Parmjit Singh may wish to pursue this matter separately himself in conjuntion with Amandeep Singh Madra (co-author).

I do not wish to make this a legal matter, but if my hand is forced, inevitably this will lead to an ugly future. If I do not hear from you by the end of today, I will have to consult with my lawyers. They have already received copies of the pages from your website that have infringed copyright.

Kindest Regards

Nihang Teja Singh

Waheguru ji da Khalsa, Waheguru ji de Fateh!

Piara Khalsa ji of my beloved Guru,

Humbly, the mission of SikhiWiki is purely to promote and spread the word, the message and the ways of our Gurus. It is Nishkam Sewa done by worldwide Sikhs and friends to achieve this mission. None of the contributors gain any income from the 1000's of users who visit this site.

Khalsa ji, if you wish to sue these Sewadars of the Panth, they have already given their head to the Guru - what are you trying to achieve by making these threats of legal action to these workers of the Guru? They spend their free time everyday to develop this site so that thousands can learn and gain from the message of the Guru. By making these threats, will you find peace in the house of our Guru?

As a servant of the Panth, and as an administrator and co-ordinator of the site SikhiWiki, I ask you to step back and look at the bigger picture. I am not paid for the work I do and I do not expect an monetary gain from the time I spend at SikhiWiki.

When, Dhan Satgur Sri Guru Arjan Dev included the Bani of the Bhagats in Sri Guru Granth Sahib, did descendents of Dhan Bhagat Kabir ji or Dhan Sheikh Farid ji threaten to take Guru ji to Court for violation of copyright!

Khalsa ji, I respect your stand but please remember that we are all sons and daughters of Guru Gobind Singh and we are all trying to enhance the name of our father. Let us not get sucked into a materialist battle and lose the respect from our father and lose the affection and love of the Panth. As a gesture of goodwill and in respect and honour of my Guru, I personally give you unlimited right to use all of my literary material on Sikhi free of charge on your site. You do not even have to acknowledge the source!

Please contact me by telephone on +44 (0)20 85xx xxxx (UK) or give me your phone number so that we can have darshan of each other and sing the praises of our Guru and not engage in a mud-slinging fight.

email sent to Harpeet by Nihang Teja Singh

SikhiWiki has confirmed that you are responsible for the copyright infringement. You have further confirmed this:

a) on Google Chat - ( Ya I Have Didi It) b) confirmed SikhiWiki contacted you regarding your illegal actions (Not At All) c) by stating you are Harpreet Singh on Google Chat (Not Properly) d) by commenting on SikhiWiki regarding Sarbloh ( Well wat comment)

Do not lecture anyone on Sikhism. You have stolen work from www.sarbloh.info so you have not acted as a Sikh. Now you are pretending that it was someone else who did this. This is very sad.( Ya after i get scared i write that i m not harpreet)

It would not be advisable for you to pretend someone else has done this when it is clearly you. If you do not speak the truth this will only make matters worse for you.

Our lawyers will be contacting you - we have all the information we need. We have all your contact details. If you do not comply, we will contact the Indian Police if we have to in order to get this matter resolved. The website www.sarbloh.info has been done for the Akali Nihangs in India - if we need to we will contact them and they can arrange for lawyers in India to contact you.

If we need to we can have your IP addresses and login details from SikhiWiki matched. This is now a matter for the lawyers.

Kindest Regards

Nihang Teja Singh

It's so sad

First of all I am not a Sikh. I am a Canadian Muslim who happens to love Keertans and Baba Guru Nanak Ji's message. Baba Jee belongs to Sikhs as much as he belongs to Muslims and Hindus. If it was not for these such great saints and divine men of God's unconditional love for humanity, most of us in India would have still be living like animals. These great men of God were the one who showed us how to live a better life.

It's so ironic that we keep forgetting that these Great personalities NEVER asked for their copy-right fees or royalities for their work and books, from their followers or admirers. Their such stance depicts guidelines about how we all TOO should live in our lives while being here. Just by giving to God's family and serving them....

Had they asked for it! I am sure none of us would have had any chance of salvation because their work is priceless. :-(

Reading above, I felt so sad that after more than 500 years of teachings some of us still fell short when it comes to follow our forefathers and their great teachings to serve everyon in God's family. I simply wanted to record my protest over how you and your work are being treated for by none other than a SIKH, a follower of Baba Jee himself to spread message of peace and love. I hope he will understand that this website is not watched and read by sikh community but also by other relgious people worldwide who appreciate Sikh Gurus for taking stand for Truth and Love.

I got personally very much disturbed reading over the copy-right violation emails sent to a person who is simply doing a community service without asking for any reward.

Kindly keep us posted.

Let me know if you need any kind of help even if it means financial. I will chip in as much as I can. It's not about copy right war. It's about humanity and love. And in following Baba Guru Nanak Ji and other Great saints of the world, all good people of the world MUST stand as one.

Otherwise as is famous saying that if we don't speak for good people then evil will prevail and destroy good people taking them one by one....and when it will come to "ME", it will be too late. There will be no one left to stand for ME because I did not provide my shoulder to a brother when he needed it the most.

Yeah! Sikh religion is a symbol of strong determination to serve God and God's family. It must be protected from all sides. It's about protecting and safeguarding God's pure and divine teachings and religions from dirty worldly games played by those who want to become "Thekay'daar" of God's assets. Such a shame!!!

I thank God that HE did not give anyone owner ship for BEST things in our lives, i.e. Air, Water and Fire. Otherwise, we humble servents of HIM would have find it very difficult to work for HIM in our lives.

May God bless us all and show us the right Path.
