Gurdwara Fremont recalls great sacrifice of 40 Muktas
Satnam Singh Khalsa

FREMONT: Dedicated to the memory of the martyrdom of 40 Muktas, the second Nam Simran exercise was organized from January 1, 2010 and will continue till February 17, 2010. Carried out at Gurdwara Sahib, Fremont, the program features Path of Sri Sukhmani Sahib in sangat from 8 pm to 9.15 pm. The Path was also broadcast and webcast through Radio Geet Sangeet and Internet. Those who could not reach the gurdwara were able to participate through these means.

The sangat thus got an opportunity to remember the great sacrifice of the 40 Muktas besides learning a lesson in how any distance from the Guru can be mended if one is clear in his/her heart and has an honesty of purpose, just as the 40 Muktas had who returned to the fold of the Guru.

Sewa and Simran continued for three days. Langar of traditional dry fruits that are often consumed on Lohri, for example ground nuts, reoris and sweets, continued. The Tutt brothers performed the sewa of langar and Akhand Path ji. S. Surjit Singh Tutt, Jaggi Tutt, S. Amrik Singh were all doing sewa along with their families.

S. Kulwant Singh Lachhar remained unmoved by the torrential rain and kept on performing the sewa of sugarcane juice. Raja Sweets folks kept supplying jalebis, pakoras etc.
