Background of Gurdwara Guru Nanak Dev Ji The Gurdwara…read morebuilding was originally a church, but was bought and transformed into a Gurdwara in 1969. The Gurdwara was named after Guru Nanak Dev Ji. At the time, the Gurdwara was one of the biggest in the UK. The Sangat (congregation) grew very rapidly as this was one of only 2 Gurdwaras in Bradford. The Hall was often full to capacity between 1975 and 1978; and a lot of good work was undertaken with children many becoming proficient in reading Gurbani (the Sikh scriptures). Punjabi language classes were taught 7 days a week and school numbers exceeded 100 at the weekends. Akhand Paaths (48 hour, non-stop recitation of the Sikh scripture) and Gurpurbs (birthdays of the Gurus) were particularly well attended with many families staying overnight during Akhand Paats. An arson attack in 1986 resulted in the main Divaan (prayer) hall being destroyed. Once the building was repaired, via the donations and hard work of the congregation, the Gurdwara was re-opened to all. http://www.plumberyorkshire.co.uk/pages/plumber_in.php?plumber_in=Bradford

Here is a SHORT NOTE ON Sikhism AS CONTINUATION OF Christianity. WHY TEN LIGHTS? Nanak wasn't a Moral Teacher, a Brahmin Guru but Satguru of the highest order that Preaches the Gospel to one's mind, Munn, Nafs, etc. https://youtu.be/HquVBRjtXF8 www.gnosticgospel.co.uk/tenlights.htm Satguru is known as the Christ in the Western world and both of them stand for the Royal Priests of God, the Spokesmen of God. Jesus was the first anointed Christ whilst Nanak was the Second anointed Christ. The Bhagats and Saints were also Christs but they were NOT the anointed ones. The First anointed Christ Jesus came when the Rabbis had become grossly inefficient and greedy hypocrites. People suffered at their Mammon orientated malpractices as you see them even today. In the Middle East one Prophet came in the name of Moses or Elijah to make people sons of Man or the Jews of heart by teaching them the Moral Laws that the corrupt priests were floundering e.g. Herod marrying the wife of Philip. And that was Angel John, the Baptist, and an ideal Levi Priest whilst to preach Gospel to the sons of Man Christ Jesus was the First Anointed Christ, the Son of Elohim, Allah, Parbrahm, etc., the very Source of Light. In Sikhism, John, the Baptist is called Israeli Fahrishhtta. Jesus handpicked 11 Labourers and not the once-born disciples whilst the twelfth clever Judas Iscariot begged Jesus to be included among the 12. The root of the word Disciple is discipline and Rabbis disciplined the once-born natural men through teaching moral laws. Thus, the moral teachers, Matt.13.v52 had Disciples.
