About Gurdwara Nanaksar
Gurdwara Nanaksar is a global organization dedicated to spreading the teachings of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Jee, the founder of the Sikh religion. Committed to universal brotherhood, selfless love, peace, and harmony, the Gurdwara offers a welcoming environment for all, regardless of religious background. Under the spiritual guidance of Holy Saint Baba Gurdev Singh Jee and worshipping Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee as the living guru, Nanaksar fosters a community centered on selfless service (Sewa) and meditation (Simran). The history of Nanaksar is rooted in the spiritual legacy of Sant Baba Nand Singh Jee, further developed by Sant Baba Ishar Singh Jee and currently led by Sant Baba Gurdev Singh Jee. This lineage has established seventeen Nanaksar Gurdwaras worldwide. Services offered include daily Kirtan (singing of hymns) in the early morning and evening, recitation of the Holy Book, and classes for learning Gurmukhi, playing instruments, and singing Kirtan. Notably, many Gurdwaras provide free medical consultations and medicines to those in need. A unique feature is the open house policy, welcoming and serving everyone, reflecting the belief that Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee’s blessings are for all of mankind. The Gurdwaras operate with strict Maryada (rituals), emphasizing humility and selfless devotion, with even spiritual leaders sleeping on thin mattresses on the floor.

History
Dhan Dhan Baba Nand Singh Jee is the founder of Nanaksar Institution. He stands out amongst his peers as he unveiled the hidden glory of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee in which he unfolded the hidden eternal splendors of the founder of Sikhism Sri Guru Nanak Dev Jee. He restored the highest respect, esteem, faith and loving devotion of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee. He caused and effected integration of thousands of stranded souls with Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee and thus saved them from drowning in this burning ocean of universal illusion. The service of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee as described by Sant Baba Nand Singh Jee was fully established by his successor Sant Baba Ishar Singh Jee at Nanaksar Kaleran, near Jagroan, Punjab, India. He undertook this mission to various cities of India and taught the people about the eternal glory of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee besides administration of Amrit (sacred Nectar as prescribed by 10th Guru, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jee) on large scale. Sant Baba Ishar Singh Jee carried out the mission for 13 years and bestowed the responsibilities of continuation of mission to Sant Baba Gurdev Singh Jee who went to village Samadh Bhai as per instructions of Sant Baba Ishar Singh Jee. Sant Baba Gurdev Singh Jee, who at present is fulfilling the responsibilities and has been instrumental in taking this mission to abroad as well.
