Gagan mai thaal is an Aarti (prayer) in Sikh religion which was recited by first guru, Guru Nanak.[1] This was recited by him in 1506[2] or 1508[3][4] at the revered Jagannath Temple, Puri during his journey (called "udaasi") to east Indian subcontinent.[2][3] This arti is sung (not performed with platter and lamps etc.) daily after recitation of Rehraas Sahib & Ardās at the Darbar Sahib, Amritsar and at most Gurdwara sahibs. However, it is common among Nihangs to recite “Aarta” before arti which is a composition of prayers from each banis in Dasam Granth and to use lamps, flowers, conch shells, bells, incense at different parts of the ceremony “sankhan kee dhun ghantan kee kar foolan kee barakhaa barakhaavai”. This form of arti is also recited at Patna Sahib and Hazur Sahib. This form of Sikh arti is the most common arti at Ravidassia gurdwaras.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji has imagined the entire universe decorated as a prayer platter on the altar of the almighty. The starting verses of the aarti are as follows :
Dhanasri 1st Guru, Present adoration.. There is but One God. By True Guru's grace, He is obtained.. In the sky's salver, the Sun and the Moon are the lamps and the stars with their orbs, are the studded pearls.. The fragrance of sandal wood make Thy incense, wind Thy fan and all the vegetation Thy flowers, O Luminous Lord..1.. What a beautiful worship with lamps is being performed? Such is Thine adoration O Lord, the Destroyer of dread.. The celestial strain is the sounding of template drums..1.. Pause.. Thousands are Thine eyes, yet thou hast no eye. Thousands are Thine forms, yet Thou hast not even one.. Thousands are Thine holy feet, yet Thou hast not one foot. Thousands are Thine noses and yet Thou art without a nose. I am bewitched by these plays of Thine..2.. Amongst all there is light and that light art Thou.. By His Light, the light shines within all the souls.. By Guru's teaching the Divine light becomes manifest.. Whatever pleases Him, that is His real worship..3.. My soul is bewitched by the honey of the lotus feet of God and, night and day, I am thirsty for them.. Bless Nanak, the pied cuckoo, with the Nectar of Thine mercy, so that he may have an abode in Thy Name, O Lord..4..1..7..9..
