Tips: when and how to send Gurpurab wishes

  • Guru Nanak Jayanti is celebrated on Kartik Purnima. In 2026 it falls on Tuesday 24 November, the 557th Prakash Purab.

  • Send on Gurpurab morning or the evening before. Many families are at the gurdwara from early morning for the Akhand Path bhog, kirtan and langar.

  • If you quote Gurbani or the Guru's words, quote only what you are sure of. The four teachings above are safe and widely known; avoid forwarding unverified 'quotes'.

  • Use 'Sat Sri Akal' or 'Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh' as greetings only if they suit your relationship; a simple 'Happy Gurpurab' is always respectful.

  • For clients, keep it a greeting with your name and firm. No offers in the same message.

  • Message only people who know you. Rapid Sender pauses between messages to lower the risk, but no tool can guarantee a number won't be restricted.

How do you wish someone on Gurpurab?

Say "Happy Gurpurab" or "Gurpurab diyan lakh-lakh vadhaiyan" (ਗੁਰਪੁਰਬ ਦੀਆਂ ਲੱਖ-ਲੱਖ ਵਧਾਈਆਂ). Adding a wish for Waheguru's blessings or chardi kala makes it warmer.

What is the difference between Gurpurab and Guru Nanak Jayanti?

Is it appropriate to send Gurpurab wishes to clients?

Yes. A short, respectful wish signed with your name and company is welcome, especially for clients in Punjab and north India. Keep offers out of it.

Can I send Punjabi wishes in bulk with names?

Yes. Paste a Gurmukhi wish with {{name}} into Rapid Sender, upload your contact sheet, and each person receives their own message from your WhatsApp.
