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.
This webinar is a part of the live course Anand Sahib: Way to Bliss Anand Sahib holds a very special place in Sikh tradition, as it is sung in almost every congregational setup. Revealed to Guru Amardas Sahib, the bani essentially details the human quest for bliss and the lifestyle that is necessary for leading a blissful life. The beauty and significance of Anand Sahib can be gauged from the fact that it dwells on a variety of ideas and principles that are central to Sikh thought. Each live session will cover two pauris (stanzas) each and vocabulary lessons.
