The day of Guru Ravidas Jayanti is celebrated with great fervor and enthusiasm, particularly in states like Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan. Devotees gather in large numbers at Ravidas temples to offer prayers and sing devotional hymns, also known as ‘bhajans.’ These hymns, which were written by Guru Ravidas, emphasise the importance of living a life of humility, selflessness, and devotion to God. The celebrations include processions, where devotees march in honor of the Guru, singing praises and chanting his teachings. Guru Ravidas Jayanti is not just a religious observance but also a day to reflect upon the Guru’s messages of social harmony, equality, and spiritual enlightenment.

Guru Ravidas’s teachings have had a profound impact on society, especially in promoting the idea of equality and breaking down the rigid caste system. He spoke against untouchability, oppression, and discrimination, stressing the importance of human dignity and unity. His messages continue to resonate in modern society, where social justice and equality remain key issues. Guru Ravidas emphasized that one’s worth is determined not by their caste, creed, or social status, but by their inner qualities and devotion to God.
