Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Saadh Sangat ji it is with great pleasure we are able to announce that Bhai Surjit Singh Ji has returned to the UK after an absence of 6 months. Bhai Sahib ji will be holding divaan at Guru Nanak Gurdwara every Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday. It is our benthi that all sangat take benefit of Bhai Sahibs stay and attend these divaans as much as possible. There will be more programs added to these weekly divaans.

We have added the audio from 16th August 2010, when divaan was held to mark Sangraand. Bhai Sahib throughout this divaan talks about the importance of Naam, and how we can become one with Vaheguru. Bhai Sahib also tells short saakhis about Bhagat Kabir, and Baba Farid. There is also vichaar on the message contained in the baarah maha da paath for the month of Bhaadon.
