A Sikh boy displays his skills with a 'Chakkar' as he performs 'Gatka,' an ancient form of Sikh martial art, as he takes part in a religious procession which started from the Golden Temple, the holiest of Sikh shrines, in the northern Indian city of Amritsar on Dec. 30, 2011. The religious procession was taken out on the eve of the 346th birth anniversary of the tenth Guru or master of the Sikhs, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Guru Gobind Singh Ji was the last Sikh Guru who initiated the special order or sect of the Sikhs called the 'Khalsa Panth.'
