Hello Local Guides.

We celebrate 13th April as Khalsa Sajna Diwas, a day of immense pride and devotion for Sikhs around the world.
Takht Keshgarh Sahib, a sacred shrine within the city. Anandpur Sahib On this sacred day in 1699, Guru Gobind Singh Ji established the Khalsa Panth. He called upon five brave volunteers who became the first Panj Pyare (Five Beloved Ones). Along with the Amrit, Guru Ji gave the Five Kakaars — the five articles of faith that every initiated Sikh must wear , symbolizing the birth of the Khalsa, with the values of courage, equality, and selfless service.

Today want to Shares story of Khalsa panth by our Tenth Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

It is said that when Guru Ji prepared the Amrit by stirring water in an iron bowl with a double-edged sword while reciting Gurbani.

A sparrow came and drank the holy nectar. Soon after, a hawk, known as baaj … swooped down to attack the sparrow. But the power of the Amrit was so strong that the tiny sparrow, now full of divine energy, boldly fought back against the mighty hawk.

From this divine moment, Guru Gobind Singh Ji proclaimed the powerful line:

सवा लाख से एक लड़ाऊ, चिड़ियन ते मैं बाज़ तुड़ाऊ, तबै गुरु गोबिंद सिंह नाम कहाऊ।" ( From
" Sava Lakh Se Ek Ladaun ,Chidiya Naal Baaz ladava ,Tho Govind Singh Kehlaun."

I will make the sparrows capable of fighting the hawks, for it is only then that i will be able to uphold my name.)

When Guru Gobind Singh Ji created the Khalsa, he introduced the Panch Pyare — the Five Beloved Ones — and initiated them with Amrit, the holy nectar. This sacred ceremony is also known as baptism in Sikhism. Along with the Amrit, Guru Ji gave the Five Kakaars — the five articles of faith that every initiated Sikh must wear.
