New Delhi, November 4

President Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday extended her greetings to citizens on the eve of Guru Nanak Jayanti, calling upon people to imbibe the ideals and values of Guru Nanak Dev Ji in their lives and work towards building a peaceful and prosperous nation.

In her message, the President said, "On the auspicious occasion of Guru Nanak Jayanti, I extend my warm greetings and best wishes to all Indians living in India and abroad, especially our Sikh brothers and sisters."

"This occasion inspires us to adopt the ideals and values of Guru Nanak Dev Ji and guides us towards building a better society. His message teaches us that living a life based on truth, justice and compassion is the true measure of success. His teachings emphasize one God and human equality. He inspires us to live with honesty and to share resources with one another," President Murmu said.

The President further said, "On this occasion, let us imbibe the ideals of Guru Nanak Dev Ji in our lives and follow the path shown by him to build a more peaceful and prosperous nation."

Meanwhile, Chief Justice of India BR Gavai, along with other Supreme Court judges, participated in a community langar at the Supreme Court canteen to mark the celebration of Guru Nanak Jayanti.

CJI-designate Justice Surya Kant was also present during the occasion, which saw judges and court staff coming together to observe the spiritual and communal aspects of the festival.

Guru Nanak Jayanti, also known as Gurpurab, marks the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev, the first Sikh Guru. The festival is observed annually on the full moon day of the Kartik month, known as Kartik Purnima. Devotees celebrate the occasion with prayers, devotional singing, and community service.

Parkash Utsav, marking the Guru's birth, is observed on this day, with celebrations continuing across gurdwaras until late at night.

A jatha of 1,796 Sikh pilgrims from India will visit Pakistan on November 5 to commemorate the birth anniversary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji and pay their respects at various historic gurdwaras on the occasion of Parkash Purb.

While I appreciate the President's message, I wish our leaders would practice these values more consistently in governance. Guru Nanak taught equality, but we still see so much discrimination in society.

As someone who has visited Golden Temple, I'm always amazed by the Sikh community's generosity through langar. The concept of sharing food with everyone regardless of background is truly inspiring. Happy Gurpurab!

"Living with honesty and sharing resources" - if only more people in business and politics followed this simple yet profound teaching. Guru Nanak's wisdom is more relevant than ever in today's materialistic world.
