The Birthday of Guru Ram Das, celebrated by Sikhs around the world, honors the fourth Sikh Guru, who was born in 1534. Guru Ram Das is revered for his humility, spiritual wisdom, and contributions to Sikhism, including the founding of the city of Amritsar, which is home to the Golden Temple, the holiest site in Sikhism. His teachings emphasized service, community, and devotion to God, and he is remembered for composing many hymns that are central to Sikh religious practices.

Sikhs commemorate his birthday with prayers, kirtans (devotional singing), and community service (seva). Gurdwaras (Sikh temples) hold special ceremonies, and Sikhs reflect on the values of compassion, humility, and service that Guru Ram Das embodied. His birthday is a time for Sikhs to renew their commitment to these principles and honor his lasting legacy within the Sikh faith.
