Anand Karaj
Anand Karaj is the traditional Sikh wedding ceremony that symbolizes the union of two individuals in the presence of Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of Sikhism. The ceremony typically takes place in a Gurdwara, where the couple and their families gather to seek blessings.
During the ceremony, the couple circles the Guru Granth Sahib four times, known as Lavan, while hymns are sung. Each round represents a different aspect of their relationship and commitment to each other. The event emphasizes love, equality, and the spiritual bond between the couple, marking the beginning of their married life.
