Magh is the eleventh month in the Nanakshahi calendar and governs the activities of the Sikhs during the Winter period and dictates events within Sikhism. This month coincides with January – February of the Western/Georgian/Julian Calendar and is 30 days long. The month of Marg starts on the 13 of January and ends on the 11 of February. The Guru tells us that during this month, the Sikh’s cleansing bath should be the dust of a saintly congregation (Sadh Sangat) – be humble; be polite. One should meditate and involve others also; By doing this the filth of bad karma is removed together with one’s ego. Desires and greed will depart when one walks on the path of Truth.

During the month be kind to all beings; this is even more important and giving to charity; Always remember the Lord within your heart; the Lord will be merciful and Nanak is a sacrifice to those who follow this advice.
