The Mughal Emperor Jahangir ordered that Guru Arjan Dev, the fifth Sikh Guru be tortured and sentenced to death after the Guru had refused to stop preaching the message of God started by Guru Nanak. Guru Arjan Dev was made to sit on burning hot sheet while burning hot sand was poured on his body. After enduring five days of relentless torture, the Guru was taken for a bath in the river. As thousands watched, he entered the river never to be seen again.

The program at Devon Gurdwara was very inspiring. Teerath Singh, Trilok Singh and Bachan Singh did seva for three days connecting the congregation to the true meaning of Sikhsmi
Towards the end, they sang amazing hymns from Guru Granth Sahib and explained how Guru Arjan Dev gave his life by standing for the truth.
