The Story of Vaisaikhi Part 1

In April 2011, cities across the UK will play host to huge, colourful and joyous parades as Britain's Sikh community marks the festival of Vaisakhi.

This programme explores the rituals through which the festival is celebrated today, and examines how Vaisakhi's themes - tolerance, equality, humility, dignity and an active concern for others - impact the daily lives of Sikhs.

With contributions from a number of eminent Sikh historians and religious experts, this film provides an entertaining, informative and highly accessible introduction to the Sikh religion's annual festival.

Baishakhi is the birth of sikh nation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

I always said this NRI r the real problem.Our govt.need to sack all dual citizenship.This procession organised to Insult great gurus.Thos half christian NRI never be sikh but a joke or Insult of great gurus.First they need to go to primary shool of sikh philosophy of Nanakdevji.One is Sikhitv ,"uski to mati mar gaya".Kuch nehi mila thora gali he da dia.Worthless people.

Any community prayer , be it at a place of worship ...be it by an individual sikh at home...the last line of Prayer to Almighty spells ,

" NANAK NAAM CHARHDI KALAA TERE BHAANNE SARBATT DAA BHALAA "

Means to pray Almighty for Good of one and all , whoever..whatever !
