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.

Bhakti and Shakti are two sides of the Guru. While deep internal contemplation and the exuberant worldly power are often painted as dichotomous, Sikh history, Gurbani, architecture and art all demonstrate their interwoven and complementary nature. What are the modern applications of these fluid concepts? How do we maintain a true connection to all the strength, internal and external that Sikhi affords us? Join us in conversation with historians and academics Paneet Singh and Harleen Kaur as we look at the theory and application of the concept in our modern journeys.

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.
