He said that Guru Ji sacrificed everything for the sake of mankind. He said that the need of hour is to spread the teachings and thought of Guru Ji to every corner of the world and exhorted all to follow the path of equality and mankind shown by the Guru.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prof. Brar said that scientific research is needed on the bani of Guru Gobind Singh Ji so that our young generation could know about the great sacrifices made by Guru Ji for the sake of mankind. The proceedings of this seminar would be published in the form of book for the benefit of researchers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In his keynote address, Prof. Balkar Singh said that Guru\u2019s Divinity cannot be described only in terms of the known boundaries of historical writings. We have to work out broader ways of rendering the history of Guru\u2019s life, message and achievements. It must be noted that Guru\u2019s life journey stretches from that of Guru (body) to Guru-Sabad. It means the Gurbani is an important measure of history writing. It is also necessary to make use of internal references of Guru Granth Sahib pertaining to Sata-Balwand, Baba Sundar, the Swayyas of Bhats etc as well as we must make much use of the Janam Sakhis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prof. Jaspal Singh, Vice-Chancellor, Punjabi University said that the personality of Guru Gobind Singh is multifarious. The Guru has contributed to the history of the making of Sikhism, its organizational structure, he had a keen sensitivity of the diversity of religions in this part of the world and finally he had given best of his voice to the marginalized. The Guru\u2019s task of transforming the \u201csparrows into Hawks\u201d is not at all a small metaphor but stands the test of history for ages to come.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Certain Punjabi, Persian and other poets have excellently brought out those aspects. Bhai Vir Singh compared him to the Hindush mountain with its challenging heights and severe cold conditions. Similarly Swami Vivekanand too referred how the Guru created one Sikh equivalent to one and odd fighters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Amritsar, November 2 (Punjab Post Bureau)- A Two-day National Seminar on Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, dedicated to 350th Birth Anniversary of Sri Guru Gobind Singh ji was inaugurated in the Auditorium of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Bhawan of the Guru Nanak Dev University at Guru Nanak Dev University.
