Gagandeep Kaur, a Research Assistant on The Guru Granth Sahib Project, shares her reflections on Vaisakhi.

“I must say that Vaisakhi is the biggest and brightest celebration in the Sikh calendar. From Holi to Hola Mahaala, Divali to Bandi Chor Divas. And from popularly known Vaisakhi, the harvest festival of Spring, to Khalsa Sajana Divas, the Guru Sahib has taught us to celebrate every festival or occasion in remembrance of IkOankar. Thus, it is imperative to say here: Vahiguru.”
