Vaisakhi (or Baisakhi) is celebrated every year on April 13th. Guru Amardaas Ji had initiated the annual gathering of the Sikhs at Goindwal in 1567 on the occasion of Vaisakhi. Guru Gobind Singh Ji founded the Khalsa order on Vaisakhi day in 1699 (the 29th march of 1699).

Origins

Vaisakhi is the first day of the lunar month of Vaisakh. Many historians believe this is also the true day that Guru Nanak Dev Jee was born. Thus the Sikh path began and became complete on the same day.
