Here are pictures from my visit to the Takhat Sri Harimandir Ji Patna Sahib earlier this year, where I also had Darshan of the Holy Jore Sahib of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Mata Sahib Kaur Ji."

"ਸ੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਪਵਿੱਤਰ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਸ਼ ਉਤਸਵ 'ਤੇ ਅਸੀਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ਰਧਾ ਸਹਿਤ ਪ੍ਰਣਾਮ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ। ਉਹ ਹਿੰਮਤ, ਹਮਦਰਦੀ ਅਤੇ ਕੁਰਬਾਨੀ ਦੇ ਪ੍ਰਤੀਕ ਹਨ।ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦਾ ਜੀਵਨ ਅਤੇ ਸਿੱਖਿਆਵਾਂ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਸੱਚ, ਨਿਆਂ, ਧਰਮ ਲਈ ਖੜ੍ਹੇ ਹੋਣ ਅਤੇ ਮਨੁੱਖੀ ਮਾਣ-ਸਨਮਾਨ ਦੀ ਰਾਖੀ ਲਈ ਪ੍ਰੇਰਿਤ ਕਰਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ। ਸ੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ ਦਾ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀਕੋਣ ਪੀੜ੍ਹੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਸੇਵਾ ਅਤੇ ਨਿਰਸਵਾਰਥ ਕਰਤੱਵ ਦੇ ਰਾਹ 'ਤੇ ਰਹਿਨੁਮਾਈ ਕਰਦਾ ਰਹਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ।

ਇਸ ਸਾਲ ਦੀ ਸ਼ੁਰੂਆਤ ਵਿੱਚ ਤਖ਼ਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਹਰਿਮੰਦਰ ਜੀ ਪਟਨਾ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਦੀ ਮੇਰੀ ਯਾਤਰਾ ਦੀਆਂ ਇੱਥੇ ਤਸਵੀਰਾਂ ਹਨ, ਜਿੱਥੇ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ ਅਤੇ ਮਾਤਾ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਕੌਰ ਜੀ ਦੇ ਪਵਿੱਤਰ ਜੋੜਾ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਦੇ ਦਰਸ਼ਨ ਵੀ ਹੋਏ ਸਨ।"
