If the bearded-powerful persecute the poor, the Transcendent has them burning in their own fire-rage. 1. Creator administers complete justice, Is fully capable of protecting Own’s votaries. 1. Reflect. Glory-heat manifests since the beginning and throughout the ages. Slanderer dies in the high heat-turmoil being produced. 2. No one can protect those being destroyed. Their reputation is spoilt here and hereafter. 3. Own’s servants are bosom-embraced and protected. Nanak: Remain in sanctuary and contemplate on All-Pervasive’s Nam1. 1.

This is our understanding at the moment, which was different yesterday and may evolve tomorrow, as we deepen our relationship with the Sabad. In this trans-creation, we have chosen to keep the repeating words in the Sabad same. We aspire to learn and retain the Divine attribute as used in the original Sabad and avoid terms like God or Lord.

Daddy’s Turban is a children’s story about the fascination of a little boy, Tegh, with the way his father dresses and particularly how he wears his turbans. Tegh wants to grow up faster, while his father cherishes the naiveté of his son. A bilingual book, combining both English and Panjabi in equal measure, Daddy’s Turban explores the significance of dastar (turban) through the connection between father and son. It’s a story of Sikh culture and a celebration of its most cherished ceremonies. Daddy’s Turban would be a perfect introduction to Sikh culture for kids from 4 to 10 years old, as well as their parents, grandparents, and educators, as the book contains a special essay The Significance of Dastar Bandi written by Rubin Paul Singh, which explains the deeper reasons behind wearing a turban. The book was written by Inni Kaur, meticulously edited by Gurdit Singh, poetically translated by Harminder Singh, and gracefully illustrated by Anantdip Kaur.
