Fully aware of our limitations, we aspire to retain the same purity and non-wordliness in all our presentations and works here. You would feel as you go through the text, audio and video a distinct, undiluted bliss and fragrance of the Glorious House of Guru Nanak retained in its pure, original form. With the grace of Lord Guru Nanak, the Mission has spread beyond all our expectations.

History We started the journey with the launch of www.baisakhi1999.org on The Tercentenary Baisakhi, the most befitting tribute for the day. This historic event was globally celebrated on a very large scale and it was this website which people turned to for celebrating this historic day's true essence. The site has since been the de-facto standard reference for The Baisakhi Day. It was featured "the Site of the Day" on this day at khoj.com, at that time the no. 1 indian portal. Soon afterwards, Brig. Partap Singh Ji's Labor of Love, www.BabaNandSinghSahib.org was released. It immediately captured the imagination of millions and won them over with an precedented Divine Saga and rare Divine Wisdom. At the turn of Millennium, the website www.SriGuruGranthSahib.org was presented to the world as the Parting Divine Gift of the Millenium. It unfolds Sikhism in its untainted form, as it was preached by Sikh Gurus themselves by their own Glorious Life Samples. We have been concentrating most of our effort now on Video and Audio. This is the media most appealing to the audience and the most effective as well. The evolution of www.SikhVideos.org is a result of this long dedicated effort to present in the form of Videos the entire Life History and Teachings of our Beloved Gurus to the audience the world over. The website www.SriGuruNanakSahib.org has been dedicated as a humble Tribute to the Supreme Divinity, Sri Guru Nanak Patshah. Other Activities Apart from the dominant presence on internet, the spiritual renditions of Guru Nanak Data Baksh Lai Mission are broadcast through the Satellite and Cable Network, they are available as Video and Audio cassettes, and also made available through publications. We are going to launch the productions of Guru Nanak Data Baksh Lai Mission in a big way into the Satellite world, the proceedings for which are underway. All of our Video and Audio programmes have been prepared taking exceptional care of the quality and standards, with a particular emphasis on using the digital technology to the maximum extent. They are comparable, if not better than any of those available from big video production houses. Some of our Video and Audio productions have been released through T-Series and are available through distribution channels of T-Series. We have also made our Video programmes available in the form of VCDs to facilitate spreading the Message to people away from the home land. No Donations are Accepted Guru Nanak Data Baksh Lai Mission is blessed to be operating under the Highest of the High Maryada of Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj. This Maryada, culture is unique amongst all the known cultures established in Satyug, Treta, Dawapar and Kalyug. Mahan Babaji did not allow the Maya in any form to enter His Holy Place. There has not been a single instance in all the ages, of such a place where sadhus, sanyasis, had not gone for collecting, begging for food or food items from the people or their houses. Surprisingly in the midst of Kali age, Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj established a holy place which, in all aspects, was totally devoid of any influence of any form of Maya. The Mission does not accept any donations in any form and no one is entitled to obtain monetary assistance, favours on behalf of the Mission. A Few of the Blessings Received

Dear Guru Nanak Daata Baksh Lai Mission, I am writing to you from Australia. Firstly may I say a big thank you to you for such a beautiful website. It is a gift to the world. I am a newcomer to Sikhism and have just started visiting my Gurdwara in Melbourne... I just wanted to say that it would be wonderful if the videos and the other materials were also in English. I am finding that I love the Sikh religion and dearly want to embrace it with my full heart. I love watching your videos. I particularly loved watching Brig. Partap Singh Ji Jaspal speak in the video series “Yug Yug Satgur Dhare Avtaree”. May God bless you and thank you. Best wishes.” - Alan Finch, Australia “Thanks to you so much. I am so happy to find this site. I reside in US but I don’t have any Gurudwara near me. I used to miss it so much but by going on this site I was so happy that I started crying. I would really appreciate if you add more shabads to your site. The photo you have on your site of Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib is there in Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib in New Delhi, India. He is my almighty. My e-mail address is also on his name.” - Anonymous, USA Lord of Lords bless the people like you who had brought the beloved of God so near to every heart of us by internet. God of God is seeing the sewa you are doing my brother… please send the original cassettes of Babaji… because I want to start a mission of taking these cassettes to every Gurudwara and let satsang listen the glory of Braham Giani Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj.” - Simu, India I was born and raised in a Brahmin family and left India 31 years back. Ever since I kept my life simple but I was always God fearing person. I was more into spirituality. Did not go to any Temples or Gurudwara Sahib. I am going through my divorce and the time is so tough. A friend of mine sent me some videos as present from this site and that was the luckiest day of my life. Ever since that day, I am so very hooked to the Kirtans that I spend every spare moment of my day listening to these Kirtans as they are so very peaceful and soothing not only to my ears but to my soul also. No matter how many times I listen to Jhim Jhim Amrit Varsada, its not enough. I listen to this certain Kirtan at least 40 times a day. I cannot thank enough to Brig. Partap Singh Ji Jaspal. And to the sisters whose voices makes my days easier. In the morning when I open my eyes, these Kirtans echo in my head and it is a wonderful feeling to get up with and start the day. My hearty thanks to Brig. Pratap Singh Ji’s family. With all my warm wishes. - Payal, Canada “You are doing a great service to the community. Keep it up.” - Joginder Singh, IPS Retd.

The only way to reach the divine is the KUTTA MARG which babaji has blessed us with and me - a kafir - cannot even try to follow this. Please accept my apology for anything that I may have written. My salutes to the mission.” - Amarjeet Kaur, MALAWI, South Africa. “I dont have words as it is a very spiritual job for making people understand that only God is truth and rest all are fake things.
