Akali Nihang Guru Gobind Singh states in 'Dasam Guru Durbar' that he considered weapons as his 'Guru'.
The tenth Sikh Guru further explicitly commanded the Akali Nihang Singh Khalsa Sikhs:
'Siri 'Sirohi', vicious like a tiger none is equal to you.
Contemplate the sword (Oh Sikh) and you contemplate it (as 'Guru'), so you will greatly benefit.'
(Akali Nihang Guru Gobind Singh, Shastar Naam Mala, Dasam Guru Durbar)
For Akali Nihang Guru Gobind Singh, the Khalsa weapons were not instruments of violence, but are, 'Samrant Kar':
'The tiger amongst weapons (the sword), the ender of wars, the enemy of the shield is the sword.
They attain salvation from the net of death whoever take hold of it (the sword) once.'
(Akali Nihang Guru Gobind Singh, Shastar Naam Mala, Dasam Guru Durbar)
The traditional Sikh warriors, the Akali Nihangs and their descendants the 'Hazoori' (resident) Sikhs of Sach Khand Hazur Sahib at Nanded, Maharashtra, to this day uniquely within the Sikh world still worship the Khalsa weapons as 'Guru' in a manner that reflect the bloody nature of this combat artform that is Sanatan Hindu Sikh Shastar Vidiya.
