Hello fellow Sikhs,

- what is the name of their Gurdwara? if there is one which is completely run by Damdami Taksal fellows?

- who is incharge there?

- can i go their and study Sikhism? like how old should a person be? can i be over 40 when i start there or was it better to start when i was 12?

I think their main base is in Talwandi sabo (Dam Dama Sahib), Bhatinda.. not in amritsar..(?)

[Deep Singh]

oh okey...but Bhindar Kalan jatha is at Mehta Chock...that is in Amritsar

[S1ngh]

Bhindar Kalan jatha

Are they related to Taksal veerjee? If not.. then who are they?

[Deep Singh]

Veer....i think Damdami Taksal has some different Jatha who support it.....

Bhindar Kalan Jatha is one of them......like Baba Jarnail Singh, who was the Jathedar of Taksal back in 80s (or still if he is alive...but that is not what i am dicussing)......he had the name Bhindrawale....because he was from Jatha Bhindar Kalan

so i guess Bhindar Kalan Jatha (just like other Panthic Jathen) is connected to Taksal...

i do not know more....therefore i asked...

Damdami Taksal has many locations. The main location is in Metha, Amritsar. It is located near Baba Bakala Sahib (Main Head quarters of Tarna Dal). Anyone can go and learn there regardless of age but Metha is only for singhs. I know there are singhs in Uk that teach(Birmingham, Leeds, Southall etc). Bhindra kala was the villiage of Sant Sundar Singh Khalsa who was the 11th jathedar of Taksal. After that everyone started using Bhindra with their name because Sant Sundar Singh was soo respected. There are locations as well: 1)B-Block Amritsar where the 13 singhs got shaheed in 1978 2)Samastpur in Jalandar 3) Jogaywal in Moga 4) Anaadpur Sahib right beside the Bidhi Chand Nihungs 5) Damdama Sahib 6)Abroad (California, Toronto, Abbotsford, UK and more). Hope that helps.

Jasdev Singh jeee......thanks a lot....

i think i read your posts at Akj.org about Damdami Taksal some days back....

Bhaji i like to know is there any historical Gurdwaras that are run by Taksal or also simple Gurdwaras too?

And is it 'better' to go to Punjab or just stay in Southall? And how long does it take? i read from Gurmat Studies website that there is a special course set up from sep 04....what kind of course will it be?

Thanks again.... :D )
