Prahlad, the saint, was born in the house of demon (king) Haranakhas like a lotus is born in the alkaline (barren) land.
When he was sent to seminary, the brahmin purohit became elated (because the king’s son was now his disciple).
Prahlad would remember the name of Ram in his heart and outwardly also he would eulogise the Lord.
Now all the disciples became devotees of Lord, which was an awful and embarrassing situation for all the teachers.
The priest (teacher) reported or complained to the king (that O king your son has become devotee of God).
The malevolent demon picked up the quarrel. Prahlad was thrown into fire and water but with the grace of Guru (the Lord) neither he was burnt nor drowned.
Angered as he was, Hiranyaksyapu took out his double-edged sword and asked Prahlad who his Guru (Lord) was.
At the same moment Lord God in the form of man-lion came out of pillar. His form was grand and majestic.
That wicked demon was thrown down and killed and thus it was proved that the Lord is kind to devotees since the time immemorial.
Seeing this Brahma and other gods started eulogising the Lord.

world gurudwaras

World Gurudwaras will strive to be most comprehensive directory of Historical Gurudwaras and Non Historical Gurudwaras around the world.The etymology of the term ‘gurdwara’ is from the words ‘Gur (ਗੁਰ)’ (a reference to the Sikh Gurus) and ‘Dwara (ਦੁਆਰਾ)’ (gateway in Gurmukhi), together meaning ‘the gateway through which the Guru could be reached’. Thereafter, all Sikh places of worship came to be known as gurdwaras.
