BABA BISHAN SINGH BARSI 2010


Last Basri of Baba Bishan Singh was celebrated with traditional devotion and reverence. There were 12 Akhand Paths going on simultaneously and it all culminated on 29 October 2010. Langar was served and at night Diwan was organised where Ragis, Dhadi and Kavishar Jathas participated. Though Hazoori Ragi Sarabjit Singh was mentioned in leaflets, but he was not present. Instead another young Hazoori Raagi came. Seating arrangements for public were not comfortable and there was not much attendance at night Diwan. Audio system was also not upto the mark. In fact recollecting old times when there was too much of JOSH in natives for the occasion - was somewhat lacking. Number of NRIs were present. Of late too much has been wasted in pump and show and display of wealth rather than showing reverence to the Eternal Guru. Gone are the days when people used to rush to Gurduwara when recital of Salok of Bhagat Kabir and Baba Frid began before Bhog of Akhand Path and sit for long hours listening to Gurbani.
