 	<li>Philosophy and lifestyle first endorsed by Guru Hargobind and developed by Guru Gobind Singh.</li>
 	<li>Guru Hargobind taught that after all other means have failed it may be necessary to take up the sword to protect the weak and the oppressed. Guru Hargobind was first of the Gurus to take up arms to defend the rights of all. At that time, it was only Emperors who were allowed to sit on a raised platform, called a takhat or throne.</li>
 	<li> At the age of 13, Guru Hargobind erected the Akal Takhat Sahib, ten feet above the ground and adorned it with two swords, Miri and Piri, representing temporal and spiritual power. The order of the two words is important as it reflects the significance and importance of Sikh duties.</li>
 	<li>First duty of a Sikh is to be a ‘sant’ – a modified form of the word ‘sat’ which can simply mean ‘true’. The second word in the phrase is “Sipahi”. So, this “Sant” should also be a soldier able to fight and engage in warfare.</li>
