TAKHT
SRI PATNA SAHIB
FACTS & FIGURES
Location:
Patna, Bihar, India
Best time
to Visit:
Late September and
March
Significance:
The Birthplace Of
Guru Govind Sahib,
One of the Five
Takhts.
Patna,
ancient Patliputra,
now capital of Bihar
State is reverently
called Patna Sahib
by the Sikhs because
of its consecration
by Guru
Nanak Dev,
Guru Tegh Bahadur
and Guru
Gobind Singh.
The latter was born
here during Guru
Tegh Bahadur’s
tour of eastern
Bihar, Bengal and
Assam from 1666
to 1670. Patna Sahib
is situated on the
right bank of the
River Ganges.
The
Past
Takht Sri Patna
Sahib is the second
accepted and acknowledged
Takht of the Sikhs.
It was 'Sher-e-Punjab'
Maharaja
Ranjit Singh who,
first of all, undertook
the task of raising
a monumental Sikh
Temple at this place.
As a result of an
earthquake, the
celestial edifice
came to be a heap
of dust. With the
co-operation of
the Sikh masses,
the golden fabric,
as it stands today,
has come into its
own. Patna Sahib
is regarded as the
centre for propagating
Sikhism in the east.
