Since 1984, The Guru Ram Das Ashram Community has commemorated the Akal Takhat Martyrdom of June 6, 1984 with a special Kirtan Program held on the 6th of every month.

Our prayer is for the world to be free of any attacks against any religious institution, Gurdwara, Church, Mosque or Temple.

The "Bring-A-Dish, Make-A-Wish" langar provided and served by community members is a community tradition begun by Yogi Bhajan as part of the commemoration.

Guest Ragi Jatha's are featured as a part of the Kirtan Program.

The Siri Singh Sahib Bhai Sahib Harbhajan Singh Khalsa Yogiji, aka Yogi Bhajan, arrived in Los Angeles in 1968. As part of his mission to share the teachings of Kundalini Yoga and to help people live healthy, happy, and holy lives, he created Guru Ram Das Ashram in 1972. It was here in Los Angeles that Kundalini Yoga in the West was born, and it was here at Guru Ram Das Ashram that Yogi Bhajan first taught, lived, and shared his life.
