A week after the celebration of International Women’s Day with reaffirmations of equality, the recognition of women role-models, expressions of love for women in our lives, we turn to ask: Why do we mark an international women’s day? Does such a “day,” simply allow for hollow congratulations in a world that is deeply divided on gender lines, as illustrated every other day of the year? Why not have a “men’s day”—are we reinforcing inequality? And does this day reflect an acceptance that all women, everywhere, across the globe, are simply the same?
The modern industrial world heavily controls our mind and body, continually shaping our lifestyle. We are often turned into a machine that continues to do what it is programmed for. Happiness and fulfillment elude us despite wealth and countless avenues to satiate our pleasure senses. In this presentation, we explore reasons that bind us, inhibitions that hold us back and address how to reorient our life compass to be truly free to realize our potential.

Can a nation change its destiny without paying attention to its youth? Empowered youngsters are central to any developed society. This presentation looks at real meaning and purpose of development in Gurbani. It parses early Sikh history to understand how the Guru fired up the imagination of the youth by providing stakes in community and society building; thus transformed them into living example of excellence. It also seeks lessons in meaningful ways of engaging the youth and making them an active participant in the Panth today.
Nam is the most important principle and central point of reference in the Sikhi cosmos and still it remains an enigma among the Sikh masses, and probably the least understood as well. The presentation looks at the etymology of the word, its appearance, usage and meaning in Gurbani, along with the traces of its inspiration in the Sikh history and tradition that helped shape them. The presentation also looks at the relevance and meaning of Nam in today’s world.
