300 Saal Guru de Naal
Over the next few weeks Sikhs will join together to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Just like many of you, I’ve been reading articles and stories about the various celebrations and I’ve come across some amazing and enriching images showing how the concepts of Sangat, Seva, and Guru come together. So I thought that in place of writing a post for once – I would instead create a mosaic of some of the images I have come across which represent the celebrations in one way or another. Pictures really do speak louder than words. [You can click on the image for a closer look].

What a great way to show the rich celebrations! I saved it as my wallpaper. The image of the kalgi is especially breathtaking!

Beautiful … great way to represent the 300 gurgadi purab of Guru Granth Sahib Ji!
Beautiful! I strongly feel this warrants more than one post. This is unquestionably one of the most important Sikh historic dates in our lifetimes.

Singh, we also hope this isn't the only post regarding this historic time. We will be following the upcoming celebrations at Hazur Sahib – and will post additional information as we come across it.

I love the colors in this montage. Can anyone tell me why the saffron and blue colors are significant for Sikhs?

I wish to show some thanks to the writer for rescuing me from this trouble. Because of surfing around through the search engines and meeting tips which are not powerful, I thought my entire life was over. Existing without the approaches to the issues you have sorted out all through your main site is a crucial case, and those that could have in a wrong way damaged my career if I hadn’t encountered your web page. Your main ability and kindness in dealing with all the stuff was crucial. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not come upon such a solution like this. I can also now look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot so much for this professional and result oriented help. I will not hesitate to refer your blog post to anyone who should receive direction about this problem.
