“Traditionally, we used to get together on Vaisakhi and say what will we accomplish by the Divali of the year. So it’s about a six-month process. So the question for all of us must be: in the spaces we are in, whether we are in cultural spaces, historical spaces, community development spaces, human rights, civil rights, and education. 

Whatever field we might be in, the world is looking at what will happen to the new next world order. While keeping that in mind, the Sikhs need to be looking at what is my divine connection with the Panth, with the Har Jio. Out of that connection, how am I going to make Panth-ki-jit the priority for the next six months?”
