Date Posted:	Thursday, 11/16/2000 2:52 AM MST

Hi,

In respose to a question asked by someone on Sikhism dissolving into
Hiduism, the following was mentioned:

"Be a leader of righteous living. Be an inspiration to yourself and others and let the Guru work through you and other Khalsa's to manifest His Grace and Glory in this Aquarian Age...the age of the Khalsa as predicted by Guru Gobind Singh ji. "960 million we shall be"

Could you please clarify what is meant by a few terms in the last sentence:
1) What is the Aquarian Age
2) What is the Khalsa Age (i.e. isn't it always going to prevail?)
3) When is the target of 960 million predicted for ?
4) And lastly - approx what is the population of Sikhs now?

Thanks and Regards,
Preeti

1.The Aquarian is the time that started just before the turn of this century. November 11,1991. It is the age when kindness and spiritual group consciousness will be the only effective means of life. It is the end of the Piscean age where "might makes right" i.e.Hitler, Saddam Hussein etc. Now we have the chance to succeed in consciousness. It is a transition, however, so we have to weather the storm of the opposition. It is a time when people learn through experience rather than 'blind faith'.

2. The Khalsa Age is the Aquarian Age. Righteousness and purity have not been and still are not the prodominant values practiced. However, we have to move in that direction to survive this planet.

3. No one knows when. It is in the will of the Creator, who makes all this happen.
