The Sikh Research Institute's Asha Marie Kaur speaks on how Guru Nanak Sahib integrates Persian and Arabic vocabulary in Sabad to invoke Islamic practices, laying the foundation for a uniquely Sikh engagement with other faiths.
The Sikh Cast host, Manpreet Jassal, speaks with SikhRI's Executive Director Kulvir Singh. Having recently left Panjab amidst a worldwide lockdown, Kulvir compares his experience leaving India to returning home in Canada. But, a deeper conversation ensues on taking the time to work on oneself as a Sikh and helping others explore their Sikhi.
For this episode, The Sikh Cast host Manpreet Jassal and SikhRI's Inni Kaur go through this Sabad of the Month (Infinite-Wisdom) by Guru Nanak Sahib. In it, the Guru redefines the terms Jog and Jogi, outside the six systems of Hindu philosophy. Jog for the Guru is not yoga, neither mental or physical, but a “connection.”
We celebrate Mother’s Day while social distancing and engage in conversation with Inni Kaur, Neelu Singh, Mandeep Kaur, and Sharanjeet Kaur to discuss how Sikhi has informed their ideas of motherhood, their challenges, and their triumphs.
As we continue to navigate social distancing together, we want to engage the community in conversation with the frontline workers.
