Guru Nanak Jayanti is the birthday of the first Sikh Guru, Guru Nanak. His birthday is also known as Gurpurab. It is one of the most sacred festivals in Sikhism. Guru Nanak was the founder of Sikhism and he summed the basis of Sikh lifestyle as: Naam Japo, Kirat Karni and Wand kay Shako, which means meditate on the holy name, work diligently, honestly and share one’s fruits. The guiding principles of the Sikh faith are truth, equality, freedom, justice, and karma. Sri Guru Granth Sahib or Adi Granth is the religious text of Sikhism and the Sikhs consider this as their supreme teacher. It is the final and eternal guru of the Sikhs and the tenth Guru, Guru Nanak appointed Sri Guru Granth Sahib as their final and eternal Guru. Non-Sikhs can also take part fully in Sikh ceremonies, prayer meetings, and social functions as their daily prayers include the well-being of entire mankind. The opening hymn of the holy Guru Granth sahib expounds the nature and attributes of God. Gurpurabs or the birthdays of Guru Sahib usually last for three days. Akhand Path is held in the Gurdwara before the birthday. The Gurudwaras are decorated with flags, flowers, religious posters and all. Also the gates are decorated and banners depicting various aspects of Sikhism are displayed. After Ardas and distribution of Prasad or the sweet pudding, the Langar is served to one and all and there is kirtan till late in the night. The distribution of langar continues to the end of the programme.
