Gurdwara

The Gurdwara service is a joyous mixture of kirtan, and traditional prayers. Everyone is welcome to join in and sing and meditate together. Following kirtan are the song of the khalsa, anand sahib, ardas and Hukam an inspired selection from the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. To conclude, prasad, a sweet treat,is served. Then Gurdwara ends and langar (vegetarian food) is served.

Gurdwara means gateway or door to the Guru and refers to a place that houses the Siri Guru Granth Sahib, the living Guru of Sikh Dharma. When each of us comes to bow before the Guru, the Siri Guru Granth Sahib, we are simply bowing to that brightest divine light within ourselves. When we touch our forehead to the ground at the Feet of the Guru, our destiny is activated.
