Sri Sahib CLARIFICATION: The Khanda (khaṇḍā) is one of most important symbols of Sikhism alongside the Ik Onkar. It became known as the Sikh National anthem, "Deh Shiva Bar Mohe" as the emblem of the Khalsa. [1] It is an amalgam of three symbols,[2] represented by three different items. It is commonly found on the Nishan sahib or flag of the Sikhs, anywhere in a Gurudwara. There are three different items used in a Khanda, which also have a symbolic meaning:[2] * A double-edged sword called a Khanda in the centre * A Chakkar which is circular * Two single-edged swords, or kirpans, are crossed at the bottom and sit on either side of the Khanda and Chakkar. They represent the dual nature/duties of the Gurus, Miri and Piri. The Khanda represents knowledge of God, the Chakkar represents the eternal nature of God and oneness of humanity, the two swords represent Miri (political sovereignty) and Piri (spiritual sovereignty
