It meant defending the rights of people of all faiths, even if that meant making the ultimate sacrifice.
Akhand Paath for the Gurpurab will commence on Friday, 25-Nov-2022 morning with Samapti on Sunday, 27-Nov-2022 morning. This will be followed by regular Sunday Diwan and kirtan by Bhai Surinder Singh Ji and jatha. So, please join for paath (prayer) sewa or listening sewa.
Akhand Paath: Paath Start Date: 25-Nov-2022, Friday, 06:00 AM onwards Paath End Date: 27-Nov-2022, Sunday around 07:30 AM

Apart from Sikhs, Hindus and other followers of Guru Nanak’s philosophy also celebrate this festival. Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism, was born on April 15, 1469.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s teaching is understood to be practiced in three ways:
Vaṇḍ Chakko: Sharing with others, helping those with less who are in need
Kirat Karo: Earning/making a living honestly, without exploitation or fraud
Naam Japna: Meditating on God’s name to control the five weaknesses of the human personality.
These five weakness are kaam (lust), krodh (rage), lobh (greed), moh (attachment) and ahankar (conceit).

We have an important update to share with our sangat.
Today America is home to a vast number of diverse and vibrant religious communities whose religious liberty the Constitution vigorously defends, but it wasn’t always this way. America’s path to religious liberty has been long, hard and often steeped in violence. ‘FREE EXERCISE: AMERICA’S STORY OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY’ is a new documentary film that explores the difficult path to freedom of religion and conscience, from colonial times into the present, by examining particular events and stories that encapsulate such a remarkable national journey.
On Sun, 06-Nov-2022, a documentary filming about “Religious Freedom” is happening at Sikh Gurdwara, DC through Paulson Productions, Inc. They will start it around 11:30 AM EST.
So, we would like to have maximum attendance and would like to request all of our sangat members to please come this Sun, 06th Nov, 2022 with family and friends for this great opportunity and share your valuable thoughts. 🙏
NOTE: Please let them know if you are not interested in appearing in the footage.
Here are further details shared by the production company along with their brochure for this event.
We hope to see you and family positively on Sun, 06th Nov, 2022 in Sikh Gurdwara, DC.
Warm Regards,
Sikh Gurdwara, DC

Bandi Chhor Diwas is a day on which Guru Hargobind Sahib was released with 52 Kings from Gwalior Prison. The word “Bandi” means “imprisoned”, “Chhor” means “release” and “Divas” means “day” and together “Bandi Chhor Divas” means Prisoner Release Day. It is celebrated with great joy as it was a time when “right” prevailed over “wrong”. The Mughals had held many hundreds of prisoners who were effectively “political prisoners” and were otherwise innocent leaders of their communities. They had been held without trial or any other legal process; jailed by brute force; held against their wishes. The lives of 52 local kings had been saved without a single shot and without a battle!
