SUMMARY:Gurpurab Guru Nanak Dev Ji
DESCRIPTION:Gurpurab or Guru Nanak Jayanti\, marks the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak\, the founder of Sikhism. The date changes annually\, and this year it falls on November 15\, 2024. Our Gurdwara at 19A Bow Lane\, Preston\, PR1 8ND\,  will hold a 3-day Sri Akhand Path Sahib\, beginning on November 15\, with the Bhog ceremony concluding on November 17\, 2024. \nWho is Guru Nanak?\nGuru Nanak was the first Sikh Guru\, born over 500 years ago in Talwandi\, a small town in India. From a young age\, he demonstrated compassion and kindness\, drawing villagers who came to listen to his teachings on love and devotion to God. \nThe term “guru” originates from Sanskrit\, meaning “weighty” or “grave.” In the Sikh context\, it signifies a teacher and a spiritual leader. \nThe Story of Guru Nanak\nAt 30\, Nanak mysteriously disappeared near a river\, leaving only his clothes behind. After three days\, he returned but remained silent for a day. When he finally spoke\, he shared that he had been with God\, who instructed him to guide others toward a closer relationship with the Divine. Nanak declared\, “There is only God’s path\, and I shall follow it.” \nFollowing this experience\, Guru Nanak dedicated his life to spreading God’s message throughout India. His followers\, known as Sikhs\, meaning “learners\,” embraced his teachings. Guru Nanak’s Birthday is celebrated to honor the origins of the Sikh faith and to remember his message that all people are equal.
