Chittagong, Bangladesh

East Journey · TA Traditional Attribution

Introduction

A coastal Bengal city sometimes named in expansive eastern itineraries.

The Journey

Presence in some modern maps of the Udasis does not equal a proven landing. Classification: traditional attribution; chronology uncertain.

Historical Context

Approximate period: Traditionally placed in the Udasis of Guru Nanak Dev Ji (often dated by later writers to the late 15th and early 16th centuries). Exact years are not established.

Chronology uncertain / traditional sequence only.

Sikh Historical Tradition

Later Sikh tradition strongly associates this place with Guru Nanak Dev Ji, but the evidence for a specific visit is less certain.

Janamsakhi recensions and later Sikh memory are not treated here as interchangeable with independently proven itinerary. Where evidence is thinner, the status label says so.
