Wahe Guru Ji Ka Khalsa, Wahe Guru Ji Ki Fateh.
Today, SikhNet performed the Bhog ceremony for the global Sahej Paaths that we organized at the end of October to #PrayforPunjab. In total, six Sahej Paaths of Siri Guru Granth Sahib ji got completed. Over 400 people from around the world participated in this seva.
Gurumustuk Singh broadcast the Bhog ceremony through Periscope, and over 150 people viewed the ceremony online. You can click here to view the video of the Bhog Ceremony.
We felt the spirit of the global Sikh community with us in the Gurdwara, when we did the ceremony and took the final hukam. We are grateful to share the Guru’s hukamnama from these Sahej Paaths with you.
