Baisakhi Significance
This festival of Baisakhi is also celebrated as the beginning of the new year. On this day, people worship the grains and celebrate their homecoming after harvesting, and then they seek blessings from God and thank him wholeheartedly. Baisakhi is not not only celebrated in Punjab but in different parts of our country with different names.
Like in Assam, it is known as Bihu, and in Kerela, it is celebrated as Puram Vishu.
However, this day holds special significance in Punjab as on one hand, the farmers celebrate the harvesting of the first crop and on the other hand, it is the same day when the tenth Guru of the Sikh Panth, Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji founded the Khalsa Panth on April 13, 1699. Besides this, this day is also the symbol of the Punjabi New Year.
What Is Khalsa Pant?
Khalsa is a collective form of duly educated followers of Sikhism. It is said that on the day of Baisakhi on April 13, 1699, Guru Gobind Singh founded the Khalsa Panth and organized the Panj Pyare (Bhai Sahib Singh, Bhai Dharam Singh, Bhai Himmat Singh, Bhai Mohkam Singh and Bhai Daya Singh). They were made Khalsa after drinking nectar and after that, he himself drank nectar from the hands of the Panj Pyare.

How This Festival Came To Be Known As Baisakhi?
The story behind it is interesting. It is said that on the day of Baisakhi, there is Vishkha constellation in the sky. Due to the Vishakha Nakshatra Purnima, this month is known as Baisakhi. Besides this, Baisakhi is celebrated on 13 or 14 April every year. The reason behind it is that this festival is celebrated when the Sun enters the first sign of the zodiac circle, i.e. Aries, and this transit of the Sun in Aries takes place on 13 or 14 April every year. So, Baisakhi is celebrated on this day every year.
