The daily edict, originating from the central Sikh shrine, serves as a guiding principle for adherents. It is a randomly selected verse from the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture, and is considered the divine order for the day. As an example, a passage might emphasize selfless service or devotion to the divine.
This daily practice provides spiritual direction and fosters a sense of community among Sikhs worldwide. Its historical context lies in the tradition of seeking guidance from the Guru’s word, providing a connection to the teachings and wisdom of the Sikh Gurus. The daily message offers solace, inspiration, and a framework for ethical living.
