These ceremonies create a deep sense of belonging within both the family and the larger Sikh community, reflecting the lasting power of love and compassion. Through these compositions, gratitude is expressed for the newborn, and prayers are offered for their health, happiness, and well-being, invoking IkOankar.

    The essence of this composition is revealed in the stanza of rahau (Pause). In it, worldly accounting (entanglements) is described as useless. In the rest of the stanzas, the being is inspired to engage in true devotion to IkOankar instead of getting caught up in meaningless wordplay. Only by singing the praises of IkOankar can one be freed from worldly entanglements and gain honor in the court of IkOankar.

    Explore Thiti (Mahala 5) [Part 1] | The Guru Granth Sahib Project

    This composition, aligned with the fifteen lunar days, follows Sukhmani Sahib in the Guru Granth Sahib. Though brief, it shares Sukhmani Sahib's simplicity and depth of message, making it a customary recitation after Sukhmani Sahib. The term ‘thiti’ is a variant of ‘tithi,’ a Sanskrit word that appears in the Guru Granth Sahib as ‘thiti,’ ‘thīti,’ or ‘thitī.’ Poetry inspired by the lunar calendar is referred to as ‘thiti.’ This poetic form reflects the lunar phases, created by the moon's waxing and waning.

    1984: Witness, Document, Justice

    Since 1984, in the aftermath of “Operation Blue Star” and the Sikh Genocide, many narratives have surfaced—graphic, heartbreaking, and deeply emotional. Yet, one crucial perspective often remains overlooked: the voices of the first responders. These brave individuals saved lives, offered aid in relief camps, and documented the earliest accounts of the atrocities. Join SikhRI as we pay tribute to those who answered the call of humanity during those dark days in Delhi. Featuring an esteemed panel of historians, activists, and legal advocates, this video sheds light on their courageous efforts.
