Here is the next video interview with Guruka Singh on various topics. In this video I asked Guruka Singh about the issue of people being judgemental of others (especially related to being a Sikh). Watch the video to see his response :)
Dharam came for a quick visit before driving of to the airport to go to New York for a few days, before flying to India for the year.
This was his first time Holding Charanjeet. I remember when we first had Narayan how awkward it was trying to hold a baby…not really knowing the proper way. Especially since babies this young can’t hold their head up and are quite small.
We are all going to miss Dharam so much. He brings so much to our lives and to the community here through is bright smiles, positive projection and service in our local Langar program which he initiated along with some other youth from Espanola.
Narayan loves his uncle Dharam. Jumping on him…wrestling…and all the playfull fun they would have together. I don’t think Narayan really understands that Dharam is going to be gone for a long while. For kids a few weeks is long…so a year is a lifetime.
Our prayers are with Dharam Singh who is moving to Amritsar with the intention of going to school at Guru Nanak Dev University (Amritsar) and getting involved locally in other ways. I heard that the university was giving him and Harbhajan Singh (who is also going) some issues with getting into the university. The little I heard sounded pretty rediculous, political and descriminative. Hopefully things get worked out without any trouble. I think Dharam and Harbhajan would add so much to any school….and why wouldn’t they want some diversity?? Anways.. we’ll see what happens.
Even though Dharam spent most of his school year in India… I think after living in the USA for the past years it will be good for him to go back to India and hopefully find is "mission in life". Hopefully he will blog about his experiences while he is there.
Dharam our thoughts and prayers are with you as you travel and venture back to Amritsar.
My Mataji and brother Dharam coming for a last quick visit before heading home to New York.
Charanjeet Kaur sleeping snuggled up with her mataji, Arjan Kaur.
During every Gurdwara the kids go up in front of everyone and sing some different inspirational english songs along with come hand motions.
"…The mighty might Khalsa. Everywhere we go…people want to know… who we are…so we tell them… We are the Khalsa!"
At the party enjoying a fresh young co-conut. I LOVE these! They come from Thailand and the milk is so delicious. It’s always a treat for us to get these.
(Ok Hari Kirtan…your picture is now online! Your famous now, ok? Hahaha…)
Suraj Kaur, Sat Jiwan Kaur and Kiranjot Kaur did such an awesome job making a delicious feast of all sorts of yummy food for the going away party for my brother Dharam. It was quite exotic :)
Just some of the yummy dishes that were made for Dharam’s going away party.
Dharam’s half sister Sat Kartar came in for a visit to NM for a few days. She is so sweet…and Narayan loves her.
