Taran Taaran

On one occasion Shri Nathji took the permission of Shri Babaji Bhagwan and went from Amritsar to the holy city of Taran Taaran, the effect of his personality on the people there was beyond description. He was only sixteen years old at the time. The unspoken, unseen, voices of the Sikh Gurus appeared to welcome him to the city. Shopkeep­ers, merchants, the young and the old, men, women, and children stepped out of their homes to catch a glimpse of this Divine Being. When he spoke, multitudes flocked to him. People were engulfed in a sea of bliss. They followed him wherever he went, they would not leave him. They wept as if possessed by a strange wave of love divine.

The holy town of Taran Taran is near the town of Amritsar in Punjab.Tarn Taran Sahib was founded by the Fifth Sikh Guru, Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji (1563–1606). He laid the foundation of Sri Tarn Taran Sahib Temple. Tarn Taran Sahib was part of the Bhangi Sikh Dynasty ruled by a powerful Sikh family of the Dhillon Clan from 1716-1810.

The city has many historical gurdwaras which include: Darbar Sahib Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji, Gurdwara Guru Ka Khuh (Gurdwara of the Guru's Well), Gurdwara Bibi Bhani Da Khuh, Gurdwara Takkar Sahib, Gurdwara Lakeer Sahib, Gurrudwara Baba Garja Singh Baba Bota Singh, Gurdwara Jhulna Mahal, and Thatti Khara.

The main religious hub at Tarn Taran Sahib is Sri Darbar Sahib Tarn Taran, built by Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji. It is a beautiful tree story structure. The upper portion of the edifice is covered with glittering gold-plated sheets. The Gurdwara Sri Darbar Sahib Tarn Taran has the largest sarovar (holy tank) in the world.
