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.”Between now and Vaisakhi, the SikhRI team will reflect and offer their insights on its significance.
