Palki

Palki:

Palki is where the Guru resides, when the Guru is carried from one place to another. Sikhs regard the holy scriptures as their living Guru. The Guru Granth Sahib is placed on the Manji Sahib- a raised platform covered by the Palki - a canopy, to show its importance. The Guru Granth Sahib is covered by a piece of beautiful material called a Romala and flowers are placed round it. Around the top of the canopy is engraved the 'Waheguru' which means 'Wonderful Lord'.
