This has got to be one of the most ethereally beautiful photos ever…
Taken by Dalbir Singh ( @SikhPark ) at 6 a.m in what he calls the ‘soft winter morning mist.’
The Golden Temple was, in any case, one of my favoured and frequently visited destinations…and I was never able to describe or express how it made me feel…
Until I saw this image.
Now I won’t need words.

Panjab fought hard to be able to celebrate Panjabi.
It faced anti-Panjabi campaigns, conspiracies, “dihati” labelling, and even mass efforts to convince Panjabi Hindus to register their mother tongue as Hindi.
Haryana, Himachal, UP, Bihar, Rajasthan, and Uttarakhand sacrificed their linguistic vibrancy and adopted Hindi to appear “modern”, but Panjab did not give up.

On the auspicious occasion of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s Prakash purab, wishing peace, prosperity, good health to all
"किरत करो, वंड छको, नाम जपो" (ਕਿਰਤ ਕਰੋ, ਵੰਡ ਛਕੋ, ਨਾਮ ਜਪੋ)
गुरु नानक देव जी की मूल शिक्षा है, जो सिख धर्म के तीन स्तंभ हैं
Waheguru ji ka khalsa
Waheguru ji ki fateh
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
Sri Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) in Amritsar is beautifully illuminated on the Birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. A mesmerizing display of fireworks (firecrackers) is also witnessed.

Panjabi singer Arjan Dhillon was on ground zero with his team when floods were at their peak, and actively supported relief efforts.
He didn’t stop there … at one of his international shows, he appealed to his audience to stand with and support victims of #PunjabFloods.
Respect 🙏
Introverts have crazy interests. Voodoo, astrology, psychology, conspiracy, bee documentaries, spirits & spells. Something stirs their curiosity, they go obsession mode. They dig until they can dig no more. That's the level of crazy I'm talking. And you think they're quiet. Lol.
Dear fellow countrymen,
Tonight as you go to sleep, do say a prayer for Punjab, Himachal and Jammu... the rains are at it.. have heard that prayers can move mountains... do spare a thought for those facing destruction & despair.
WMK 🙏
