Celebrating Guru Nanak Devi Ji

Nov 15, 2024

Guru Janam, also known as Guru Nanak Jayanti or Gurpurab, marks the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. It is a day that honors the birth of a spiritual light who changed the world with his message of love and unity.

What was the message?

He traveled across lands to spread His teachings that

  • God is one
  • Kindness, equality and selfless service are the highest virtues

His words were simple and yet powerful:

"There is no Hindu, there is no Muslim. We are all children of the same Creator"

Core principles of Guru Nanak

  • Vand Chhako (sharing)
  • Kirat Karo (living honestly)
  • Naam Japo (chanting the name of the one True God)
  • Sarbat da bhala (well wishes for everyone)
  • Sewa karo (service)

Founder of Sikhism

He was the founder of Sikhism and the first of the ten Sikh Gurus. Sikhism was established by ten Gurus. These Gurus created and defined Sikhism from one to the next, through their words, hymns, writings and actions. They taught the belief that all religions worship the same one True God (Ek Onkar)

"Ek Onkar" hymn translated

"There is but one God. True is His Name, creative is His personality and immortal is His form. He is without fear, sans enmity, unborn and self-illuminated. By the Guru's grace, He is obtained.

Embrace His meditation

True in the prime. True in the beginning of ages. True He is even now and True He verily shall be, O'Nanak!"
