Write about Sri Hari mandir Sahib.

Answer»

Guru Arjan Dev Ji had raised Sri Hari mandir Sahib in the centre of the Sarovar Amritsar after the final union of Guru Ram Das Ji with the Divine Power. Sufi fakir, Mian Mir laid the foundation stone of Sri Hari mandir Sahib in 1589. Guru Sahib had constructed doors in each of the four directions of Sri Hari mandir Sahib. It was done to declare that the doors of Sri Hari mandir Sahib were open to the people of all the castes and religions without distinction. Baba Budda Ji supervised the work of construction of Sri Harmandir Sahib and completed it in 1601. In 1604, Adi Granth Sahib was placed in Sri Harmandir Sahib and Baba Budda Ji was appointed as the first Granth  of Sri Hari mandir Sahib.

Sri Harmandir Sahib is the main centre of pilgrimage for the Sikhs. According to one scholar, “Amritsar is for the Sikhs what Mecca is for the Muslims.”
