About the Akal Takht
The Akal Takht stands inside the Darbar Sahib, the Golden Temple complex, in Amritsar, Punjab. Of the five takhts, the seats of authority of the Sikhs, it is the most prominent. For the Khalsa, the community of initiated Sikhs, it is the highest seat of earthly authority. Guru Hargobind founded it in 1606 to uphold justice and handle temporal matters.
The building was originally known as the Akal Bunga, and it was founded directly opposite the Harmandir Sahib as a symbol of political sovereignty. Guru Hargobind revealed a raised platform there on June 15, 1606, wearing two swords that indicated his spiritual and temporal authority. The first structure on the site was an open brick platform, which a hall later replaced.
The present building rises five stories, with a gilded dome and marble inlay. In the 1800s, Maharaja Ranjit Singh raised the structure to five stories. His general Hari Singh Nalwa decorated it with gold and added the golden dome at the top. Two Nishan Sahibs fly at the Akal Takht rather than a single flag; together they are said to stand for the miri-piri two-sword idea.
