Akhand Path Sahib is a continuous, uninterrupted recitation of the entire Guru Granth Sahib, conducted as a spiritual ceremony with profound religious significance in Sikhism
Akhand Path Sahib typically takes 48 hours to complete, as the reading continues day and night without any breaks. The recitation is conducted in shifts by readers to ensure continuity.
Akhand Path usually starts in the early morning and concludes exactly two days later, at around the same time it began. This completion time is considered auspicious, and the final verses are often read during the morning of the second day, followed by a prayer (Ardas).
