Kharak Singh, it is not a big deal that you have been giving to Red Cross for the last three years because you did so unknowingly, now that you know that Dasvand should be given only to the Panth, you should immediately start giving it to the Panth instead of Red Cross or other charities. Guru Sahib is Bakhshanhaar.

I understand your point Bhai Kulbir Singh, but to me it seems that if it was done unknowingly then it was not a big offence, if he had knowingly given Dasvand to other organizations then he should be asked to give all previous Dasvand back to Panth.

Same way in most situations if a mistake is done on accident, usually the punishment is not the same as if that mistake was done on purpose.

1. Sikh give Dasvandh to local Gurdwara Sahib Committee. Then committee buy groceries for everyday Langar. Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari eat in Langar. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
2. Sikh give Dasvandh for School run by local Gurdwara Sahib Committee. Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari children studies in school. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
3. Sikh give Dasvandh to Gurdwara Sahib Committee to help them buy Bus or Van. This Bus or Van is used to various purpose like for School Children pick & drop, taking Pilgrims to & fro from Railway Station to Gurdwara Sahib, Nagar Kirtan services etc etc ... Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari consumes this service. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
4. Sikh give Dasvandh to Hospital run by Gurdwara Sahib Committee. Take Pingalwada for example. Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari gets treated there. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
5. Sikh give Dasvandh to help Gurdwara Sahib Committee build Yatri Nivaas. Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari pilgrims are going to stay there. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
6. Let's say Sikh give Dasvandh to 1984 victims, mostly in the Delhi Sikh Widows Colony, who are Non-Amritdhari. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
7. Majority of the team members of 2020 referendum team are Non-Amritdhari who are working towards Sikh Sovereignity. Can the donation given to them be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
8. Sikh give Dasvandh to NGO working towards Sikh Prisoners who are jailed illegally and are rotting in prison. Both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari receive this help. Can this be considered Dasvandh given to Khalsa Panth ?
These are just few of the examples. There could be many examples like this where the Dasvandh given will get consumed in the form of Product or Services by both Amritdhari and Non-Amritdhari together. Where is the line to be drawn ?
Is there any central organized system or bank account or an institution where Khalsa can give Dasvandh and it will be only used for welfare of Khalsa Panth. And what do we mean by welfare of Khalsa Panth and who is leading the welfare and where ?
PS : By Non-Amritdhari I mean Sehajdhari Sikhs and not folks from different religious background.

A gursikh once said that dasvandh can be used on yourself it's for the benefit of khalsa panth. Some examples they gave were getting horseback riding lessons, archery lessons, buying a bow and arrow, kirtan/tabla lessons as all of these would be in the purpose of being tyar bar tyar for khalsa panth or for doing seva of khalsa panth. Can sangat please share their views on this? Is this is okay?
