Death comes for all of us. Yet we live in a culture that endlessly tries to escape this reality—through our obsession with youth, medical interventions to delay aging, or the way death is sensationalized in popular media.


Ideas from Abrahamic and Indic traditions have also shaped how many Sikhs, especially in the diaspora, think about death and the afterlife.


This webinar invites you to pause and reflect: What does Sikhi actually say about death? How are we meant to face it, understand it, and live in its awareness? Drawing on translations, commentaries, and insights from The Guru Granth Sahib Project, as well as Sikh history and tradition, we will explore how Gurmat offers a distinct perspective—one that transforms not only our understanding of death, but also our relationship with life itself.
