Join Jasveen Kaur as she explores the sakhis, the stories from the Gurus' lives. In this particular episode, she delves into the themes of sharing and caring. The Sacha Sauda sakhi sheds light on the genuine meaning behind sharing, caring, and engaging in honest trade.
Guru Nanak Sahib faces a dilemma when he enters the village to gather materials for a potential business. The question arises: will the Guru heed his parents' advice or act in a manner that significantly benefits others? Compassion forms the core of caring, and for Guru Nanak Sahib, prioritizing the feeding of the hungry becomes a higher calling. It serves as a perfect example for all of us to follow.

In saloks ninety-three through one hundred thirty, Sheikh Farid Ji reminds us that the entire world remains under the sway of death. Even the most well-nourished bodies cannot escape it; when old age arrives, even the once strong become weak.
In saloks sixty-six through ninety-two, Sheikh Farid Ji reminds us that with each day comes someone’s time to depart this world. All those here are like guests; yet they spend their lives oblivious, forgetting to prepare for the journey ahead.
