Guruparv Celebration:

Guruparv Celebration recently by GD Goenka Public School Lucknow. Sikhs celebrate the birthdays of all of their ten gurus as ‘Gurpurab’. The birth anniversary of the first Sikh guru, Guru Nanak is known and celebrated as ‘Guru Nanak Prakash Utsav‘. It is one of the most sacred festivals for Sikhs and will be celebrated on November 23 this year. Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji was born in 1469 in Talwandi, a village about 65 kilometers west of Lahore. During the course of his life, Guru Nanak traveled far and wide, teaching people the message of one God who dwells in everyone.

He set up a unique spiritual, social, and political platform based on equality, fraternal love, goodness, and virtue. His words are enshrined as 974 poetic hymns in the Guru Granth Sahib. It is part of the Sikh religious belief that the spirit of Guru Nanak’s sanctity, divinity, and religious authority descended upon each of the nine subsequent Gurus.
