  • Gurbani and Nanakshahi Calendar (Pal Singh Purewal, Edmonton)
    Gurbani And Nanakshahi Calendar (Pal Singh Purewal, Edmonton) Guru Nanak Sahib had spent almost a quarter of a century travelling and spreading the word in the world. Since most of his travels were on foot, he must have spent countless summer nights in the lap of nature. He observed physical phenomena, and his bani portrays some of them. It is true that his aim was not to highlight the phenomena but to impart true knowledge using them as a vehicle, since people could relate to them. From amongst such phenomena mention may be made of the formation of day and night, the month - lunar and solar, the year, the movement of the luminaries - the sun, the moon, and the stars, formation of seasons, the twelve months of the year, the tithi (lunar day), and the division of the day by man into smaller units of time such as pehar, muhurat, ghati,pal, visuaye, chasuaye, and yugas - the mega units of time. These units are the basic building blocks of Hindu calendars. Mention of these is made in Guru Granth Sahib. In Tukhari Raga Guru Sahib records the appearance of a comet in the sky. qwrw ciVAw lMmw ikau ndir inhwilAw rwm ] - pM: 1110 The Sun the moon and the stars While the sun represents heat and excitation, the moon represents coolness, comfort and solace. The sun also is dispeller of darkness and represents enlightenment due to experience of true knowledge. Sun’s apparent motion in the sky causes the formation of day and night and of seasons in the year.
