Time to rejoice: Guru Nanak has arrived to redeem humanity

Guru Nanak, a great advocate of humanism of the 15th century of India is considered as the model of interreligious harmony. He dedicated his whole life to promote harmony among the people of different faiths. Unlike an ordinary man, from his boyhood Nanak started to search for the true meaning of life and a way to bridge the gaps among the followers of different religions. His teachings form the basement of Sikhism and he is regarded as the first Guru of the Sikh religious tradition. The teachings of Guru Nanak can be termed as the model for establishing universal peace by eliminating communal conflicts-a task which he himself wanted to accomplish throughout his whole life.

On this happy occasion while we are celebrating the 552nd Birth Anniversary of the Master, let us all take a leaf from his life and imbibe in our lives the principle he recommended for a world of fraternity and peace:“Those who have loved are those that have found God”.

Happy Guru Nanak Birth Anniversary!
