Gurudwaras of World

Gateway to Sikhism proudly launches
Gurudwaras of World @ www.worldgurudwaras.com 

Gateway to Sikhism proudly launches  Gurudwaras of World @ www.worldgurudwaras.com on auspicious day of Khalsa Sajna Divas , Vaisakhi April 14th 2012.  Worldgurudwaras.com  will strive to be most comprehensive directory of Historical Gurudwaras and Non Historical Gurudwaras around the world.

The etymology of the term 'gurdwara' is from the words 'Gur (ਗੁਰ)' (a reference to the Sikh Gurus) and 'Dwara (ਦੁਆਰਾ)' (gateway in Gurmukhi), together meaning 'the gateway through which the Guru could be reached'. Thereafter, all Sikh places of worship came to be known as gurdwaras.

It is  a work in progress and  We strongly urge the Sikh Cyber Community to contribute to this  project by submitting  contact information, details, images  of Gurudwaras around the  world to make this a comprehensive directory.

Historical Gurudwaras in Pakistan

Gurudwara Panjvin Patshahi, Chak Ram Das

Gurudwara Panjvin Patshahi, Chak Ram Das Distt Gujranwala

guru

This village going by the name of Chak Ram Das is in Wandhu police station of Gujranwala district. It is located 20 kilometer east of Eminabad and lies on Eminabad-Mianwali Bungalow road. It was due to the love and affection of Bhai Prana that the Fifth Patshah Guru Arjttn Dev Ji was attracted to this place. A beautiful Gurdwara was built on the spot where Guru Ji had stayed. It has vanished now. There used to be a chaubara in front of this place which is now called the Guru Da Mahal (palace of Guru) by the people. There is no land revenue due on 40 ghumaon of land granted to this gurdwara by Sikh rulers. The land is in the custody of Auqaf Department. The Gurdwara has now vanished due to the lack of maintenance
