Golden Temple On Gurpurb Or Birthday Of Guru Teacher
Golden Temple:- Its name literally means Temple of Gods.The fourth guru of Sikhism, Guru Ram Das, excavated a tank in 1577 CE which subsequently became known as Amritsar (meaning "Pool of the Nectar of Immortality"),] giving its name to the city that grew around it. In due course, a splendid Sikh edifice, Harmandir Sahib (meaning "the abode of God"), rose in the middle of this tank and became the supreme centre of Sikhism. Its sanctum came to house the Adi Granth comprising compositions of Sikh gurus and other saints considered to have Sikh values and philosophies, e.g., Baba Farid, and Kabir. The compilation of the Adi Granth was started by the fifth guru of Sikhism, Guru Arjan Dev.

Bathing Or Ishnan Sikhism believes in attaining holiness, purity, personal cleanliness and cleanliness of surroundings by avoiding loathsomeness, abomination, physical and emotional stress. It believes that heart and mind can not be pure without cleanliness of body. Therefore bathing and washing is an important aspect of Sikh way of life. It is generally believed that bathing and ablution in the morning is more effective than any remedy in the world. Washing of hands is obligatory in almost all the religions both before and after partaking of food as well as at other times. Similarly, washing of hair is based on the theory to avoid stink, contamination, diseases and infections which may spread to ears, nose, eyes (cause blindness), mouth and other parts of the body. The Sikhs are required to clean the body and mind from vices and sins. The Sikh must wash up the body, clean the mind in nectarine stream and bathe the soul in love of God to attain Him.
