Takht
Sachkhand Sri Hazur Sahib reminisces one of the last prodigious monuments
of the greatest of the great Guru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. The journey
which the great Guru undertook in the east at the holy place of Sri
Patna Sahib for the creation of the Khalsa Panth, with the punjab
as its battleground, climaxed into Sri Abchal nagar Hazur Sahib. It
is this place where the Great Guru breathed his last. His being merged
with the bigger Being of the Almighty God. It is also at this place
that the Great Guru guided every human being with his astute leadership
and keen intellect by incarnating the Great Being in the holy Sri
Guru Granth Sahib Ji with a view to guiding the erring humanity for
all times to come. The holy 'Word' of Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji shook
the very foundations of idol-worship that had been leading human beings
astray.
For perpetuating the struggle for independence,
Madho Das, a recluse and ascetic as he happened to be, was baptized
Banda Singh Bahadur to root out tyranny and oppression of the so-called
greats and to put the Punjab on a stable footing.
Gurdwara Sri Nagina Ghat, Gurdwara Hira Ghat, Gurdwara
Banda Ghat, Gurdwara Shikar Ghat, Gurdwara Maal Tekri, Gurdwara Sangat
Sahib and so on stand to monumentalize the unique achievements of
the great Guru Sri Guru Gobind Singh ji.
