Formation of Khalsa Panth

 
Two hundred years later, in 1699, on the occasion of Baisakhi, the Tenth Guru Gobind Singh formally founded the Khalsa Panth at Anandpur Sahib, establishing a social order committed to peace, equality and justice for all. Today, on the same site, stands the majestic Gurdwara Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib.
 

Tricentenary of Khalsa & Foundation of Virasat e Khalsa

 
The year 1999 marked the Tricentenary of the Birth of the Khalsa.
 
To commemorate this event, the Chief Minister of Punjab S. Parkash Singh Badal laid forth the outlines of a magnificient edifice to be known as Virasat – e – Khalsa at Sri Anandpur Sahib.
 

Inside of Virasat e Khalsa

 
The Heritage Complex is inspired by the rich natural and architectural heritage of Sri Anandpur Sahib, while also drawing heavily from Sikh and regional architecture. Contrary to the tradition of domes which crown the sacred Sikh sites, the roofs of the Museum are concave-shaped receptors facing the sky. Sheathed in stainless steel, they reflect the sun’s light towards the Gurdwara and the Fort.
 

Virasat e Khalsa Project

 
The Rs.300 crore project was opened by Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal in the presence of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Nitin Gadkari, Art of Living founder Ravi Shankar and others.Conceived as a repository of the rich heritage of the 'Khalsa', showcasing the history and culture of Punjab, the heritage complex has been built to emphasize the eternal message of the Sikh gurus.Called the Khalsa Heritage Complex (KHC), it is touted as a landmark monument of one of the youngest religions in the world.Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was invited by Badal to inaugurate the monument but the move ran into a controversy after state Congress leaders alleged that the monument had already been inaugurated in 2006 and that the prime minister should not come to re-inaugurate it.
 
The project, announced in April 1999, was originally expected to be completed by September 2004 to coincide with the celebrations of the 400th year of the Golden Temple.In December last year, the Punjab government set the "final" deadline for July 30 this year but even that was missed by the authorities.the monument inaugurated Friday is only the first phase of the whole KHC complex.Boston-based Israeli-architect Moshe Safdie has designed the complex, which is shaped like open hands offering prayers. The monument is termed as a "wonder in the making".
