      Respected Tejpal ji,
      Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh!

      In response to your question, respected learned brother Kandola Sahib has given a brief reply. The undersigned further wants to bring to your kind notice that the word ‘Khalsa’ is a Persian word which means ‘King’s personal land’. Therefore, the Sikh, who is a student, after imbibing the teachings of Guru Granth Sahib has to become Akalpurakh’s own i.e. a Khalsa and rise above the fright of death.

      In Guru Granth Sahib, the word ‘Khalsa’ appears in one place in the Bani of Kabir ji and he is guiding us:-
      ਪਰਿਓ ਕਾਲੁ ਸਭੈ ਜਗ ਊਪਰ ਮਾਹਿ ਲਿਖੇ ਭ੍ਰਮ ਗਿਆਨੀ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਕਬੀਰ ਜਨ ਭਏ ਖਾਲਸੇ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਭਗਤਿ ਜਿਹ ਜਾਨੀ ॥੪॥੩॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 654}
      ਅਰਥ: ਸਾਰੇ ਜਗਤ ਉੱਤੇ ਕਾਲ ਦਾ ਸਹਿਮ ਪਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੈ, ਭਰਮੀ ਗਿਆਨੀ ਭੀ ਉਸੇ ਹੀ ਲੇਖੇ ਵਿਚ ਲਿਖੇ ਗਏ ਹਨ (ਉਹ ਭੀ ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਸਹਿਮ ਵਿਚ ਹੀ ਹਨ) । ਹੇ ਕਬੀਰ! ਆਖ-ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਮਨੁੱਖਾਂ ਨੇ ਪ੍ਰੇਮਾ-ਭਗਤੀ ਕਰਨੀ ਸਮਝ ਲਈ ਹੈ ਉਹ (ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਸਹਿਮ ਤੋਂ) ਆਜ਼ਾਦ ਹੋ ਗਏ ਹਨ।੪।੩।

      In the political sense, Khalsa is a sign of ‘Sikh Sovereignty’. Keeping in view the history and various Rehatnamas, the Sikh Panth/Nation has laid down the procedure of taking ‘Pahul’ to become’Khalsa’. The ceremony has been named as ‘Amrit Sanskar’ and the details can be seen at pages 27-32 of ‘Sikh Rehat Maryada’, which you can read by clicking on the link below:-

      If you have any further questions please do ask and if there are any shortcomings, please do point out the same.

      Regards,
      Your Brother

      The simple answer is that it paramount importance to take AMRIT. Must understand what is AMRIT according to spirituality of GURU NANAK. GURU says AMRIT HAR KA NAAM HAI. Contemplating , internalizing and living, becoming NAAM is AMRIT CHHAKNA. Then we take KHANDE DEE PAHUL.
