A day of Celebration -  Birthday of Guru Nanak Dev Ji

He was born to kalu Mehta and mata tripta devi in hindu family in the village of talwandi, now called Nankana sahib near Lahore. He had one  older sister bibi Nanki.

How early childhood, Bibi Nanki saw in her brother the light of god but she did not reveal this secret to anyone.she is known as the first discipline of Guru Nanak Dev Ji.

Even as a boy Nanak was fascinated by Hindu Religion and his desire to explore the mysteries of life eventually led him to leave home.

Nanak married Sulakhani and they had 2 sons, Shri chand and lakhmi Das.

True Business :- When Guru Dev Ji were 12 years old his father gave him 20 rupees and asked him to do a business.Guru Nanak Dev Ji bought food for all the money and distributed among saints, and poor.when his father asked him what happened to business? He replied that he had done a “True business”at the place where Guru Nanak Dev had fed the poor, this Gurdwara was made and named "sacha sauda".


Treasure of truth :- One morning,When he was twenty-eight,Guru Nanak  Dev went as usual down to the river to bathe and meditate.it was said that he was gone for three days.when he reappeared,it is said he was “filled with the spirit of god”.his first words after his re-emergence were: “There is no Hindu, there is no muslim”.

Guru Nanak Spent the final years of his life in Kartarpur where Langar free blessed food was available. The food would be partaken of by Hindus, Rich, Poor, both high and so called low castes. Guru Nanak worked in the fields and earned his livelihood. After appointing Bhai Lehna as the new sikh Guru,on 22 september 1539,aged 70, guru Nanak met with his demise.
