Simran & Seva - The Oneness Within & Outside

For Sikhs, Simran, or meditation, is to understand the Oneness within. Recognizing we are all One, we realize the suffering of others impacts us all, compelling us to serve others through Seva. Both are integral in the Sikh Way.

The world should be very concerned by India’s repression of freedom of the press and speech.

Har Maidan Fateh - Victory in Every Battlefield.

As the master warrior strives for success in every battle, strive to be victorious in every battlefield of life: emotionally, intellectually, spiritually & more. Conquer the battle of life by seeking victory in every aspect of it.

The Oneness In All:

My thoughts on the foreign interference inquiry: it's not just our democracy that’s at risk, it's lives. The evidence of India’s involvement in the assassination of a Canadian on Canadian soil shows how high the stakes are. We can't afford partisanship. Canada must stand united.

Today we celebrate the birth of the Khalsa - a revolution meant to not only uplift humanity and uproot tyranny - but also to transform and better ourselves. The 10th Master said each Khalsa would be able to battle 125,000. When we tap into the infinity within we become limitless.

Khalsai Bole - The Coded Warrior Language Of Resilience:

This language understood every negative as a positive, a gift. Imagine how applying this language to our lives today can help us become more resilient, courageous and most importantly - inspire us to uplift all humanity.

The fear of death for many of us is the greatest of fears. When we conquer it, we realize that there is no fear we can’t overcome. This empowers us to live fearlessly and achieve our true potential, one that limitless, not even by death.
