Sikh Rehit Maryada as issued by Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (S.G.P.C.) Today, you have been born in the Guru’s House, and stopped your cycle of birth and death; you have joined the Khalsa Panth. Your spiritual father is Guru Gobind Singh and your mother is Mata Sahib Kaur Ji. Your birth place is Kayshgarh, and your home is Anandpur Sahib. Being sons and daughters of the same father, you are all Amrit Dhari brothers and sisters. You have given up all association with your past caste, color, race, creed, birth place, country, religion or community, and you have become a pure Khalsa. Do not worship any other god, goddess, messenger, incarnation or messiah, other than the One Immortal God. You are not to consider any other agency as the giver of salvation except the Guru in his ten forms, and the Bani of his Word. Recite, at the least, the following Banis everyday:
Always wear the five "K’s":
You must never do any of the following four things:
If you commit any of these acts, you will have to take Amrit again. Be ready always to serve the Panth, and to perform seva at the Gurdwaras. Give ten per cent of your income to the Guru, and do only that which is in accordance with the Guru’s Teachings. Always stay closely knit with one another according to the duties and rules of the Khalsa. If you stray from the Rehit, then confess in the Congregation of the Khalsa, pray for forgiveness and ask for the penalty; be careful from then on.
