WHY DO GURDWARA IN INDIA HAVE A SAROWAR? WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF HAVING ISNAAN IN THE SAROWAR?
The initai purpose of SAROVAR was for the visitors to have opportunity to take a bath and clense themselves of the dust nad sweat before entering the Gurduara Sahib and sitting among the rest of the Sangat. In todays time it gives one a good feeling to look at the water.
There was never is not now any spiritual value attached to taking bath in the Sarovar. To clense one’s mind , it takes living in accordance with NAAMU or HUKAM.
ਭਰੀਐ ਹਥੁ ਪੈਰੁ ਤਨੁ ਦੇਹ ॥
ਪਾਣੀ ਧੋਤੈ ਉਤਰਸੁ ਖੇਹ ॥
……..
ਭਰੀਐ ਮਤਿ ਪਾਪਾ ਕੈ ਸੰਗਿ ॥
ਓਹੁ ਧੋਪੈ ਨਾਵੈ ਕੈ ਰੰਗਿ ॥ (ਮ:੧, ਪੰ:੪)
also we can quote
ਸੋਚੈ ਸੋਚਿ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਜੇ ਸੋਚੀ ਲਖ ਵਾਰ
sochai soch na hovai je sochai lakh vaar,
which means
if bathing leads to cleanliness of your soul and heart, then even if you take bath lakhs of times you will not achieve it.
bhul chuk maf krni gur saroop sadh sangat jio
waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki Fateh
