Event Details
“The Bridge Of Harmony”
A Passage to Peace - Kartarpur Sahib Corridor
You are cordially invited to participate in the “The Bridge of Harmony” event that is being held at
Location: International Border, Dera Baba Nanak, District Gurdaspur, Punjab India
Kartarpur Sahib, Shakargarh, Pakistan
Date: November 7th 2009
As you may be aware that TeriSikhi, along with other international organizations, are organizing this event where people of different faiths from around the globe are being invited to participate in Guru Nanak’s message of peace and brotherhood of mankind.
The function will be on the Indian side of the border as well as on the Pakistani side of the border and will be visible and audible to both sides.
We would like to bring your kind attention to the growing religious aspiration among Sikhs to visit Kartarpur Sahib, a sacred place of the Sikhs where Guru Nanak Dev Jee spent the last 17 years of his life as a simple peasant after his great four journeys. After the partition of India in 1947, Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara went to the Pakistani side of the border. For a long time, the Sikh devotees have also been longing for a corridor to visit Kartarpur Sahib which is only at a walking distance from the Indian border.
It is the intent of the event organizers to foster better, stronger bonds with our brothers and sisters on the other side of the border. Also at the same time bring light to the need to open an international corridor from the Indian side to the Pakistani side so that people can pay their respect at Kartarpur Sahib. The organizers have donned this the MAGIC MILE, as it will be the first mile in the world that people will walk from one side of the border to the other in true sprit of trust and harmony.
TeriSikhi, a non-profit organization, has embarked on a 20-million signature campaign to urge both countries to open the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor. Sikhs, Muslims, and Hindus are signing up a petition to open Kartarpur Sahib Corridor from all around the world.
It is with this in mind that we ask you to lend your support to this truly international worthy cause.
