What is Kashi?
In ancient literature and scripture, the city of Varanasi (Benares) is often referred to poetically as Kashi, “the luminous” - an allusion to the city’s historical status as a centre of learning, literature and culture.
A second Kashi was founded in Punjab in 1706 by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru. Drawing inspiration from the Guru’s scholarly legacy, Kashi House was founded exactly two centuries later in 2006.
