Religious fervour dots Fremont 

While United States is gearing up for the upcoming presidential elections, Sikh Americans are in their social and religious best celebrating the Tercentenary of the Guruship of Guru Granth Sahib.

Gurdwara Sahib Fremont was a picturesque representation of the religious fervour all over the globe. With the bhog of 31 non-stop recitations of the religious text amidst kirtan, langar, political speeches, gatka display and decoration of the Gurdwara and its precicints, the Sikhs were in a festive mood. Each participant at the function was engaged in being part of the spiritual consciousness of the occasion.  

Reiterating their resolve to be a religio-political nation, speakers at the celebration committed themselves to the transformation of society to a politicaly conscious, humane society dedicated to peace and progress of mankind.  

Sikhs vowed to spread the message of the Guru. Every Sikh seemed to be chanting “300 Saal Guru de Naal” and “Sabh Sikhan ko hukam hai, Guru Maneyo Granth.
