Explore Karhale | The Guru Granth Sahib Project
The term 'karhale' is derived from the Rajasthani and Sindhi word 'karhal,' which means camel.
Historically, traders loaded their goods on camels to sell in distant lands, enduring long, arduous journeys. To relieve fatigue and express their emotions, they sang songs called 'karhale' about the harsh desert climate and their separation from loved ones.
Over time, these songs evolved into a unique poetic form, depicting foreign lands and the challenges of wandering in separation from family.
Featuring: Muktnoor Kaur

A Conversation on Anand Sahib: The Bliss
Inni Kaur joins Sikh Heritage Month to discuss the deeper meaning of Anand Sahib by Guru Amardas Sahib.
While 'anand' translates to happiness and joy, its true meaning is more profound. The composition highlights that the eternal Wisdom (Guru) is the source of bliss, which can only be experienced through this Wisdom. It brings steadiness and discipline to the seeker's entire being, leading to a state of true bliss.
