Excerpts : From ‘Global Martial History of the Universal Khalsa ' An Outline by Lieutenant Colonel (retired) Perminder Singh.

The Aim of this monograph, by this unlettered scout: an attempt to update appreciation of the progressive ongoing global revolution of the universal Khalsa of the current millennium. It will need more worthy scholars/ soldiers, in fact the Khalsa / saint-soldiers/ sant-sipahis themselves to fill in the details of the ongoing global martial history of the revolutionary universal Khalsa for the sake of continuity of the purpose of the daily ardas, the universal prayer all over the global village: ‘ Nanak: Naam, Chardi Kala, Tere Bhane Sarbat Da Bhalla.'   Revolution is by definition an extraordinary phenomenon in history which has been designated by Thucydides as almost an established ‘law of human behavior over the ages all over the globe'. Hagopian's law of nature: “For of the Gods we believe, and of the men we know, that by law of nature where ever they can rule they will. This law was not made by us and nor are we the first who have acted upon it; we did but inherit it and shall bequeath to all time and we know that you and all mankind if you are strong as we are, would do as we do”. The revolution envisioned, commenced and spread in all four directions from Punjab by Baba Nanak is today revolutionizing the global village. The Global Martial History of the Universal Khalsa , is the global history of the revolution of the martial Spirit culminating in the Khalsa Roop of the Universal Khalsa. From ‘Golden Orient to Sodden Flanders' records of WW-1 heritage museum in Ieper, Belgium, display a letter of the Khalsa Spirit : ‘No one has any hope of survival, for back to Punjab will go only those who have lost a leg or an arm or an eye. The whole world has been brought to destruction!' The noted museum historian Dominiek Dendovan observes in a nutshell : ‘As said, Ieper is the only place in Europe where troops [in Khalsa Roop ] are remembered on a daily basis, both in our museum as during to the Daily Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate Memorial to the Missing.' -   - - as can be seen from this photo album:

Beneath an ancient pipal tree,  fast by the Jhelum'side, In silent thought sat Hurnam Singh,  A Khalsa soldier of the King : He mused on things now done and past,  For he had reached his home at last, His empty sleeve his pride!.  Five years before a village lout,  beneath the self self-same tree, He met the Havildar, who'd come   With honeyed words and beat of drum,   Cajoling all who glory sought,  And telling how the regiment fought The Zakha and the Mohmand clans  With shouts of victory ! Wah Guru Ji ! rang in his ears,  the famous battle cry, And since those days Hurnam had seen,  On Flanders plains, from fierce Messines, To Festubert and Neuve Chapelle,  'Mid festering bogs and scenes of hell, How Khalsa soldiers die!.
