'Life feels blessed': Hardeep Puri's heartfelt tribute during Guru Charan Yatra

Union Minister Hardeep Puri shares emotional tribute during Guru Charan Yatra, carrying sacred relics of Guru Gobind Singh Ji across multiple cities for public darshan.

"My life feels blessed by bowing at the Guru's feet - Hardeep Singh Puri"

New Delhi, Oct 26

Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Sunday expressed deep reverence after paying obeisance during the ongoing Guru Charan Yatra.

Sharing his emotions on X, Puri wrote: “My life feels blessed by bowing at the Guru’s feet,” as he offered respects to the sacred pair (pavitra joda sahib) of Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji.

Calling it a moment of great fortune, he shared glimpses from the Faridabad-Agra and Agra-Bareilly leg of the yatra, wishing that Guru Maharaj Ji’s grace remain upon all devotees.

Notably, Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh, along with his wife and daughter, on Friday visited Gurdwara Moti Bagh Sahib in New Delhi to pay his respects to the sacred Jore Sahib at the commencement of the “Charan Suhawe-Guru Charan Yatra.”

The visit marked a moment of deep reverence as the nation prepares for this historic spiritual journey carrying the sacred relics of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji.

Jore Sahib, the revered footwear of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji has been preserved with devotion for over three centuries by the family of Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri before being entrusted to the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee.

Last week on Thursday, the Union Minister announced to present these sacred relics for the sangat’s darshan at Guru Sahib’s birthplace, Takht Sri Patna Sahib.

Making a formal announcement, he had said that the Joda Sahib will be carried from Delhi to Patna Sahib as part of the “Charan Suhawa, Guru Charan Yatra,” allowing devotees along the route to have the darshan of the sacred relic.

The relic embodies the humility, grace, and divine legacy of the Tenth Guru and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji, serving as a sacred reminder of their sacrifice, courage, and compassion.

Its darshan inspires devotees to walk the Guru’s path of righteousness and selfless service.

The Charan Suhawe Guru Charan Yatra will travel from Delhi to Takht Sri Patna Sahib, passing through Faridabad, Agra, Bareilly, Lucknow, Kanpur, Prayagraj, Varanasi, and Sasaram, culminating on November 1 at the Guru’s birthplace in Patna.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also on Wednesday extended his heartfelt wishes on the occasion of the Guru Charan Yatra, invoking the timeless teachings and spiritual legacy of Sri Guru Gobind Singh and Mata Sahib Kaur.

He urged the citizens, especially those residing along the yatra route, to participate in this spiritual pilgrimage and have darshan of the holy ‘Jore Sahib’.

While I respect the spiritual significance, I hope the government is also focusing on pressing economic issues. Spiritual events are important, but they shouldn't overshadow governance responsibilities.

The route through multiple cities is such a thoughtful planning. Many devotees who cannot travel to Patna can now have darshan in their own cities. Great initiative! ✨

The historical significance of preserving these relics for three centuries is remarkable. This shows how Indian families have been custodians of cultural heritage for generations.

Planning to take my children for darshan when it reaches Lucknow. It's important for the younger generation to understand and appreciate our spiritual traditions and Guru Sahib's teachings.
