Here is a video with my mataji Sat Kirin Kaur talking about the strength of women, how women can access their own power, and not follow the norms of society.

You might have been wondering what has been going on with me and why I haven’t been posting much on MrSikhNet.com in recent months. I know I used to post something almost every day, but for the past 2-4 months I have been deep in planning and development of the new SikhNet website. It takes quite a bit of time and work to create a professional website with all kinds services. Also, it is no small task to migrate SikhNet over to a whole new system (which is what we are doing). If we had a staff of 10 people this might go quicker but that isn’t the case for SikhNet so things can take time.
I was calling this new site SikhNet 2.0 but, I guess SikhNet is way past version 2 since we have gone through many revisions over the past 11+ years. It is however a big change from our current system which has been the same for many years, so this is a big step.
Just saw this on my friend Sartaj Singh’s blog. Seems like these days the media is going wild. Last week it was "Burger Singh" and Nihang Singh’s being made fun of and now this. In the recent issue of Golf Digest Magazine a picture which looks just like a typical painting of Guru Arjan Dev ji is used to represent the "Golf Guru".
In this video Shanti Kaur shares some inspiring words. She talks about the Akal Takhat and how it was attacked by the Indian Army June 6th, 1984 and thousands of Sikhs were brutally killed. She explains why many of us celebrate this day as the Martyrdom of the Akat Takhat and gives an explanation about why. She talks about Guru Gobind Singh and the concept of death and fearlessness. For me this was very inspirational and gave me a very different perspective on fear and death. Have a watch below:
