Amritsar, the “Pool of Nectar”: A city intricately woven around the Sacred Pool of Nectar at the heart of the Harimandir Sahib (The Golden Temple), stands as a testament to spiritual richness. Established by Guru Ram Das, it is often referred to as “Sach Khand” or the Realm of Truth, representing the highest blue ether or heaven. Amritsar is not only home to this spiritual marvel but also hosts Miri Piri Academy, the sanctuary of the global Kundalini Yoga community established by the visionary Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan in the 1990s.
Sultanpur Lodhi, is where Guru Nanak received divine enlightenment while dissapearing into the Kali Bein river. He spent a significant part of his early life. It was here that he worked as a storekeeper for the Nawab of Sultanpur, Daulat Khan Lodi, and experienced a profound spiritual awakening. Today, Sultanpur Lodhi is a major pilgrimage site for Sikhs, featuring several historic gurdwaras commemorating the life and teachings of Guru Nanak.
Goindwal Sahib, a serene town in Punjab, India, renowned for its sacred Baoli Sahib, the 84 Steps to the Sacred Well. Established by Guru Amar Das, the third Guru of Sikhism, this revered site offers a unique spiritual journey as you ascend each step, chanting the sacred verses of Japji Sahib. Immerse yourself in the rich heritage and tranquility of Goindwal as you meditate and experience the full splendor of Japji Sahib as it carries you through the 84 steps to purify the karmas of 8.4 million lifetimes.
Anandpur Sahib, the “City of Bliss” : Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, Anandpur Sahib is a city steeped in spiritual significance. It was established by Guru Tegh Bahadur and the Birthplace of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh. The city is graced by the presence of the Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib, one of the five temporal seats of authority in Sikhism. The many historic gurdwaras are not just architectural marvels but embody the spirit of Sikhism. They stand as a testament to the courage, sacrifice, and devotion of the Sikh spirit.
