August 8th, Sikh Coalition Gala. The Sikh Coalition has posted a photo essay. That intermingles pictures of the gala venue with the honorees. It looks like they’re pulling out all the stops for a mega-scale event. Tickets start at $250. I’m looking forward to the day I can make a ‘founder’ level donation ($15k), as it includes “[seating with] high level political, government, and business luminaries of your choice.” It’s just a few weeks away! Video: Ravinder Singh sworn in as Hoboken Councilman. On Blue...

Divided We Fall, a must see movie. For a screening near you, and tell us what you think. I’ve met Valarie Kaur–in fact I knew her before she was famous–as I was in touch with her regarding the Sikhism course she created at Stanford University. I can vouch for how wonderful she is, and I am inspired by her example of following her spirit and doing what she knew she had to do. Anita’s the newest, coolest Punjabi singer on the bhangra scene. She sings in Punjabi pretty well! Check out this article. The New ...

Glossary

In case you don’t understand some of the lingo used on this site:. A guru is one who is enlightened. “Gu” means ignorance, and “ru” means enlightenment. So it’s someone who has gone from ignorance to enlightenment, and has become a “teacher.” Sikhs had 10 living Gurus, or “prophets” from 1469-1708. The current Guru is our sacred text, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Gurbani is the “Word of the Guru.” The entire contents of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib is “Gurbani”.
