Thiti refers to a lunar calendar day—a count from the first to the fifteenth day based on the moon's phases. As a poetic form, Thiti is based on the fifteen lunar days of the Indic calendar months.
In his Thiti, Guru Nanak Sahib dispels illusions and superstitions by emphasizing devotion and contemplation of IkOankar (the Divine). In this twenty-pauri (stanza) composition, each lunar day serves as a thematic anchor.
