When a baby is born into a Sikh family, the word ‘Waheguru’ (God’s name) is whispered into the baby’s ear. Sometimes the words of a prayer that Guru Nanak wrote long ago, are whispered in the baby’s ears and a drop of honey is placed inside the baby’s mouth. Baby names aren’t chosen until after the baby is born. The baby’s name is decided in a special ceremony. Sample Slide Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

The ceremony ends with a special pudding called karah prasad shared by all the guests and a little bit of it is placed on the baby’s lips. Then a Rumala, a beautiful cloth, is placed over the Guru Granth Sahib. A Rumala and a Chauri. A Chauri is waved over the Guru Granth Sahib as it is read.
