with one tongue.

Guru Gobind Singh fledged complete authority to the panth, the Sikh
Nation, for making political decisions under the guidance of shabad
Guru, Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji.
Guru Granth Sahib Ji serves the purpose of making us one with God, i.e
is all about naam & spiritualality.
Ithiaas (history) states that Guru Gobind Singh had to obey the hukam
(order) of the panj piare, 5 beloved leaders of Khalsa, to leave the
kila (fort) of Anandpur during the enraging battle in which he lost both
his sons & disciples who fought to protect him from many armies & were
outnumbered thousands to one.
The Khanda Symbol of the Khalsa Nation; Miri Kirpaan represents Temporal
Power , Piri Kirpaan represents Spiritual Power, the chakar - the
oneness of God, and the khanda itself - Shaster Guru
