Khalsa ji,

Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa

Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh

The wind of freedom is blowing in Eastern Europe ushering in a new era. Finally the rulers have realized that they no longer can deny human rights to their people. It was at this altar of human rights: to preserve freedom of conscience that Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib laid down his life.

Let us all gather together on December 10, 1989, at Viers Mill Park, Kensington, MD and pay homage to the Martyr who sacrificed his life so that others may enjoy the freedom to practice their religion.
