MEANING
OF THE PENDANT:
The Khanda
consists of three objects:
A Solid Circle
Two Interlocked
Swords
One Double-edged
Sword in the Centre
The two-edged sword (which by itself is known by the name Khanda), circled
by the solid circle known as a Chakra (quoit). The right edge of the
Khanda symbolises freedom and authority governed by moral and spiritual
values. The left edge of the double-edged sword symbolises divine justice
which chastises and punishes wicked oppressors. The two-edged sword
at the centre of the Khanda also symbolises disintegration of false
pride and vanity and demolition of the barriers of caste and other inequalities.
The AMRIT which is used at the time of BAPTISM is stirred with the Khanda.
The original Khanda with which Guru GOBIND SINGH stirred the baptismal
waters on March 30, A.D. 1699 is now preserved at Anandpur.
The Chakra
being a circle without a beginning or an end exhorts the Sikhs to make
the whole creation as the object of their compassion and activities.
It signifies the symbol of Ek Om Kar, the Oneness of God, who is without
beginning or end. The circle signifies oneness, unity, justice, humanity
and morality. The Chakra was also used as a weapon against injustice
and oppression.
The two Kirpans
(swords) flanking the Chakra represent the two swords of Guru HARGOBIND
signifying the spiritual and temporal leadership of Gurus. Apart from
giving it symmetry, the two Kirpans impart a conceptual balance to the
Khanda like the Yin and Yang of ancient Chinese philosophy. The left
side signifies the sword of spiritual sovereignty or Piri. The right
sword signifies the sword of political sovereignty, Miri.
