Have a verified Sevak offer your ardas at Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib, Anandpur Sahib, and receive same-day proof.
Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib at Anandpur Sahib is where the Khalsa was born. On Vaisakhi in 1699, Guru Gobind Singh called the sangat together, asked for heads, and initiated the five who stood, Daya Singh, Dharam Singh, Himmat Singh, Mohkam Singh, and Sahib Singh, the Panj Pyare. He stirred water and sugar with a double-edged khanda while Gurbani was recited, gave that amrit to the five, and then asked them to initiate him in turn. From that day Sikhs carried the five Ks and a shared name, and the Panth had a form no emperor could dissolve without a fight. The town itself is older than the Khalsa. Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Guru, founded it in 1665 as Chakk Nanaki, named for his mother; it was renamed Anandpur after his martyrdom in Delhi in 1675, when he was beheaded for refusing to convert to Islam. The Takht's sanctum keeps old weapons used by the Guru's Khalsa, and the present complex was built between 1936 and 1944. Each spring Anandpur Sahib fills for Hola Mohalla, the three-day festival Guru Gobind Singh established (the first procession was held here on 22 February 1701) where Nihang Singhs ride, wrestle, and display gatka, and langar feeds a gathering that now runs to roughly two million people.

A Takht is a seat of temporal authority, not simply a large gurudwara. Damdama Sahib's place among the five is contested: the SGPC recognised it in 1966 and the Government of India in 1999, while the Budha Dal holds that its own seat should hold the fifth place.
| Takht | Where | Why it is a Takht |
|---|---|---|
| Akal Takht | Amritsar, Punjab (inside the Golden Temple complex) | Raised by Guru Hargobind in the early 1600s as the seat of temporal authority, facing Harmandir Sahib |
| Takht Sri Patna Sahib | Patna, Bihar | Birthplace of Guru Gobind Singh, 22 December 1666 |
| Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib | Anandpur Sahib, Punjab | Where Guru Gobind Singh founded the Khalsa on Vaisakhi 1699 |
| Takht Sri Damdama Sahib | Talwandi Sabo, Punjab | Where the Damdami Bir, the final recension of the Guru Granth Sahib, was prepared in 1705–06 |
| Takht Sachkhand Sri Hazur Sahib | Nanded, Maharashtra | Where Guru Gobind Singh died in 1708, having conferred the Guruship on the Guru Granth Sahib |
Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib at Anandpur Sahib in Punjab is one of the five Takhts of Sikhism (the seats of temporal authority) and the birthplace of the Khalsa. Guru Gobind Singh founded the Khalsa here on Vaisakhi in 1699. With Sevahey, a verified Sevak offers your ardas there and sends same-day proof.
Anandpur Sahib is a town in Rupnagar district, Punjab. Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib, the Takht at its centre, is at Anandpur Sahib, Rupnagar, Punjab 140118. It is one of three Takhts in Punjab, with the Akal Takht at Amritsar and Takht Sri Damdama Sahib at Talwandi Sabo.
The Khalsa was founded at Anandpur Sahib, at the site of Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib, on Vaisakhi in 1699. Guru Gobind Singh initiated the Panj Pyare there with amrit prepared by stirring water and sugar with a double-edged khanda, then asked them to initiate him in turn, which is why the Takht is called the birthplace of the Khalsa.
The Panj Pyare, the five beloved ones, were the five who offered their heads when Guru Gobind Singh asked at Anandpur Sahib on Vaisakhi in 1699: Daya Singh, Dharam Singh, Himmat Singh, Mohkam Singh, and Sahib Singh. They were the first Sikhs initiated into the Khalsa, and they then initiated the Guru himself.
Amrit Sanchar is the Sikh initiation ceremony, first held at Anandpur Sahib on Vaisakhi in 1699. Guru Gobind Singh mixed water and sugar in an iron bowl, stirred it with a double-edged sword while Gurbani was recited, and gave the amrit to the Panj Pyare. Those who take amrit keep the five Ks, kesh, kangha, kara, kirpan, and kachera.
Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh Guru, founded the town in 1665 and called it Chakk Nanaki after his mother. It was renamed Anandpur following his martyrdom in Delhi in 1675, when he was executed on the orders of Aurangzeb for refusing to convert to Islam. His son, Guru Gobind Singh, founded the Khalsa here twenty-four years later.
The sanctum of Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib holds old weapons used by Guru Gobind Singh's Khalsa. The present complex around them was built between 1936 and 1944, on the site where the Khalsa was founded on Vaisakhi in 1699.
Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib at Anandpur Sahib is one of the five Takhts of Sikhism, alongside the Akal Takht at Amritsar, Takht Sri Patna Sahib, Takht Sachkhand Sri Hazur Sahib at Nanded, and Takht Sri Damdama Sahib at Talwandi Sabo. The Akal Takht is the first and highest; Keshgarh Sahib is the Takht of the Khalsa's founding.
Hola Mohalla is the three-day Sikh festival held at Anandpur Sahib, usually in March, on the day after Holi. Guru Gobind Singh established it as an occasion for martial display, holding the first procession here on 22 February 1701. Nihang Singhs in blue robes ride, wrestle, and perform gatka, and langar feeds a gathering of around two million. You can request that your ardas be offered during Hola Mohalla when you book through Sevahey.
Gurudwaras, including Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib, are generally open through the day and welcome anyone regardless of faith. The day follows the Guru Granth Sahib rather than fixed hours: prakash, when the scripture is installed, is done in Amrit Vela (roughly between 2 and 6 in the morning) and sukhasan, when it is carried to rest, at night. Those points move with the season, so confirm the day's schedule with the Takht before travelling. Your Sevahey Sevak times your seva to that day's actual schedule and confirms the slot in the app.
