Gurudwara Tahli Sahib

Gurudwara Tahli Sahib, Gondpur is located about 7 km away from Mahilpur, district Hoshiarpur. Gurdwara Tahli Sahib, is dedicated to Guru Hargobind Ji, who came here from Pur Hiran on his way to Kiratpur Sahib and stayed in a grove of tahli trees. 


A platform was raised on the site amid the grove as a memorial which used to be called Guru Kian Tahlian. The platform was later replaced by a Gurudwara. The present building, constructed in 1930, is a rectangular hall, with a sanctum at the northern end. A square room with a lotus dome above it tops the sanctum. In the adjoining compound is the Guru Ka Langar and rooms for the Granthi Singhs.

The Gurdwara is affiliated to the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee and is managed by the local committee. Besides daily services, special assemblies are held on the 1st and 13th day of every Phagun especially because of the belief that it was on the 13th day of the month of Phagun when Guru Hargobind Ji visited the place.

Takht Sachkhand Sri Hazur Sahib

The structure is built at the place where Guru Gobind Singh died. The inner room of the gurdwara is called the Angitha Sahib and is built over the place where Guru Gobind Singh was cremated in 1708. The gurdwara was built between 1832 and 1837 by order of Maharaja Ranjit Singh (1780–1839). The Guru held his court and congregation here and was convalescing after being attacked by two would-be assassins. One of the attackers stabbed the Guru, and was killed by him with a single stroke of his talwar (curved sword). The other was killed by his followers as he tried to escape. The Guru's wound was deep, but initially healed after being stitched by a European surgeon. However the wound re-opened a few days later when the Guru was stringing a bow for one of his Sikhs and the Guru died after declaring the Guru Granth Sahib as his successor. A few days before Parlok Gaman, Guru Gobind Singh ji ended the line of personal Guruship by appointing the “Granth Sahib” (Gur-Ta-Gaddi) as his

Guru Nanak Jhira Sahib is a Sikh historical shrine situated in Bidar, Karnataka. Gurdwara Nanak Jhira Sahib was built in the year 1948 and is dedicated to the first Sikh guru Guru Nanak. Bidar has a very long association with Sikhism as this is the home town of Bhai Sahib Singh, one of the Panj Pyare (five beloved ones), who offered to sacrifice their heads and were later baptised as the first members of the Khalsa. The Gurudwara is established in a nice valley, surrounded by laterite hills on three sides. The shrine comprises Darbar Sahib, Diwan Hall and Langar Hall. In the sukhaasan room, Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of Sikh is placed. There is a separate room called the Likhari Room, where donations are accepted and receipts are issued. A beautiful Gurdwara has been constructed after the independence of India in 1948 by the side of the spring. The water from the spring is collected in a small Amrit Kund (a holy water tank) built opposite to the front stairs of the Gurud
