What is Gurdwara?

A gurdwara (Punjabi: ਗੁਰਦੁਆਰਾ, gurduārā or ਗੁਰਦਵਾਰਾ, gurdwārā; sometimes transliterated from Punjabi as gurdwara), meaning “the doorway to the guru”, is a place of worship for Sikhs in the holy presence of their eternal and living Guru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. The devotees or Sangat sing the gurbani of Sri Guru Granth sahib in the form of keertan or divine hyms to worship Almighty God.

Katha or divine discourses  also form an integral part of Gurdwaras in which learned scholar try to expand the jewels of meanings of Gurbani and also quote the instances of the practical life and vision of 10 gurus.
