Thara Sahib

Known as the revered shrine of Sri Teg Bahadur Ji, the ninth leader of Sikh religion, Thara Sahib is found between the Gurudwara Jyoti Sarup Sahib and Gurudwara Fatehgarh Sahib. The ancient history of the shrine proves the appearance of Guru Hargobind Ji.

While going to Amritsar from Gwalior, Guru Hargobind Ji visited the holy land where the Gurudwara of Thara Sahib is now situated. It is also believed that in this very spot Sri Teg Bahadur Ji conveyed sacred messages of Sikh religion to his followers.

Apart from immense religious importance, the Thara Sahib Gurudwara has also made a remarkable place in the eventful history of India as this is the place where several Brahmin pandits gathered to seek shelter in 1675.

Located in a small village of Punjab state, Thara Sahib offers praying services to the followers by accommodating them in a building structure which is the only in-built hall of the Gurudwara.

Throughout the year people from different districts of Punjab come to visit this place of reverence. Apart from the local Sikhs, people of other religions also frequently visit this quaint Gurudwara of Punjab. Tourists who visit the northern parts of India also flock to Thara Sahib Gurudwara to have a glimpse of the pious place of Sikhs.

Evolved several centuries back, today Thara Sahib is counted among the most respected sites of Sikhism which has a distinct identity among the followers of the religion who not only preach but also practice the sermons of Gurus religiously.
