Today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarked on a spiritual journey as he visited the Gurudwara Takat Sri Patna Sahib, the birthplace of Sri Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru.
During his visit, PM Modi paid his respects in the Darbar Sahib, a sacred space within the Gurudwara. His participation in the Ardaas, a Sikh prayer seeking divine blessings, showcased his deep respect for the Sikh faith and its traditions.
Adding to the spiritual ambiance of the visit, PM Modi also listened to live Kirtan, a form of devotional music that is an integral part of Sikh worship. The hymns, sung in praise of the Gurus, resonated with the spiritual energy of the place.
A significant part of the visit was PM Modi’s Darshan of the rare ‘shastras’ or weapons used by Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. These weapons are not just historical artifacts but also symbols of the Guru’s courage and spiritual leadership.
PM Modi’s visit to the Gurudwara is a testament to his commitment to India’s diverse cultural and religious heritage. It sends a strong message of unity in diversity, a principle that is deeply ingrained in the Indian ethos.
