The Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of Sikhism, is treated with immense reverence and respect. It is placed on a raised platform called a Takht or Palki, covered with a decorative cloth, and is often adorned with flowers. Sikhs perform a ritual called "Parkash," where the scripture is ceremonially opened each morning, and "Sukhasan," a closing ceremony at night, during which it is covered and put to rest. Additionally, devotees often bow before it, and it is read aloud and sung during prayers and gatherings.
