The Sukhmani Society of Suncity Residential Township celebrated Gurupurab 2024 with devotion and enthusiasm on 24th November, marking the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. The festivities began with the Prabhat Feri on 4th November and culminated on 15th November. The grand celebration on 24th November was a fitting tribute to this auspicious occasion.
The Prabhat Feri, an early morning procession, commenced with residents joining together, reciting Shabad Kirtan (devotional hymns) and spreading peace and harmony. Dressed in vibrant traditional attire, the procession went through the township’s lanes, symbolizing the illumination of spiritual wisdom and kindness. Children and adults alike distributed sweets, creating a tone of unity and togetherness.
The Gurupurab celebrations on 24th November were a deeply spiritual and joyous occasion. The day commenced with the serene recitation of Path Sukhmani Sahib at 10 am, followed by soulful Kirtan Ardas that uplifted the congregation.
A key highlight was the Langar, a free community kitchen offering delicious vegetarian meals to all, irrespective of caste, creed, or religion. Volunteers came together to prepare and serve food, embodying Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s teachings of equality and selfless service.
Residents wholeheartedly participated in these sacred celebrations, fostering community spirit and commemorating the timeless teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. The event proved to be a memorable blend of devotion, community bonding, and cultural vibrancy.
