The birth anniversary falls in December or January, or even both the months depending on the Gregorian calendar. However, the annual celebrations are decided based on the Nanakshahi calendar. Devotees commemorate the day by organising mass processions. They share sweets and cold drinks (mostly sherbet) and sing devotional songs during the festivities. People gather at gurudwaras and pray for prosperity and blessings from the holy saint. Guru Gobind Singh Jayanti, just like other festivals in India, has friends, family members and loved ones getting together and gorging on a delicious spread of dishes. The spiritual leaders and elders narrate the Guru’s tales of courage and grit to the younger ones on this day.
