Pakistan: The Sikhs & Their Heritage

,
Online

What is Heritage? Heritage is an array of our inherited traditions, monuments, objects, and culture. Most importantly, it is the range of contemporary activities, meanings, and behaviors that we draw from them. Heritage includes, but is much more than preserving, excavating, displaying, or restoring a collection of old things. It is both tangible and intangible, it is how we identify ourselves. Heritage cannot be put into silos. It is an essential part of the present we live in--and of the future, we will build. They were there, therefore we are… Join us for a discussion with Amardeep Singh, Dr. Dalvir Singh Pannu, and Dr. Nadhra Khan in reimagining and reconfiguring the Sikh Heritage in Pakistan.

Anand Sahib: Week 12

,
Online

This webinar is a part of the live course Anand Sahib: Way to Bliss. This session will feature a personal reflection on Anand Sahib by Inni Kaur In 2005, I was going through a challenging time in my life. To stay centered I began to study this bani (composition). It took me about two years to go through each verse. Many legal pads were filled. To make sense of my notes, I ended up with a pale translation of this exquisite bani. Needless to say, the bani of Anand Sahib had a profound effect on me. It changed me and continues to chisel me. Sikhi is a lived experience. I share my reflections in that spirit.

Liv - Tea With Tommy: The Saga of Duleep Singh

Online

Join us as T. Sher Singh explores the life of Maharaja Duleep Singh by juxtaposing the narrative the British propaganda machine had created around him, against the facts which have largely been either hidden or downplayed by historians to date. As a result, Duleep Singh's place in Sikhdom today is an ambivalent one and needs to be corrected, says T. Sher Singh, if we are to fully understand our past and chart our future."
