  • Mission to India
    Prime Minister’s Council & King David Society MISSION TO INDIA Main Mission March 3 - March 10, 2019 New Delhi u Agra u Mumbai You’ve seen the world. Traveled virtually everywhere. But whether you’ve already been to India or not — there’s one thing we can guarantee — you’ve never experienced it like you will with Federation. Traveling with us, you’ll go beyond tourism to an India that will capture your heart. It may happen while joining locals for dinner or holding the hand of a woman who weaves pashminas. But when you meet the child in the slums looking at you with the future in his eyes, when you listen to the young woman who says ‘thank you’ for giving her a chance — you’ll know that these moments are imprinted on your heart and will be with you forever. $7,750 Per Person (Double Occupancy) $1,945 Single Supplement Day 1 Arrive and Get Acclimated Sunday, March 3 New Delhi is home to a history of various kingdoms and empires; it’s been captured, ransacked and rebuilt several times — a story we, as Jews, are all too familiar with. Day 2 Cycle, Walk and Drive Your Way Through New Dehli Monday, March 4 Cycle through tree-lined Chandi Chowk market, filled with bustling shops, temples, silk traders and embroiderers. Visit two centuries-old UNESCO World Heritage sites. Revel in the magnificence of Humayun’s Tomb, constructed in honor of the 16th century Mughal emperor. Set amongst four imperial gardens, it was said to have inspired the design of the Taj Mahal.

  • Guru Tegh Bahadur
    Second Edition: Revised and updated with Gurbani of Guru Tegh Bahadur. GURU TEGH BAHADUR (1621-1675) The True Story Gurmukh Singh OBE (UK) Published by: Author’s note: This Digital Edition is available to Gurdwaras and Sikh organisations for publication with own cover design and introductory messages.

Except for quotations with acknowledgement, no part of this publication may be reproduced in any form or medium without the specific written permission of the author or his legal representatives. The account which follows is that of Guru Tegh Bahadur, Nanak IX. His martyrdom was a momentous and unique event. Never in the annals of human history had the leader of one religion given his life for the religious freedom of others. Tegh Bahadur’s deed [martyrdom] was unique (Guru Gobind Singh, Bachittar Natak.) A martyrdom to stabilize the world (Bhai Gurdas Singh (II) Vaar 41 Pauri 23) ***** First edition: April 2017 Second edition: May 2021 Revised and updated with interpretation of the main themes of Guru Tegh Bahadur’s Gurbani. References to other religions in this book: Sikhi (Sikhism) respects all religious paths to the One Creator Being of all. Guru Nanak used the same lens of Truthful Conduct and egalitarian human values to judge all religions as practised while showing the right way to all in a spirit of Sarbatt da Bhala (wellbeing of all). His teachings were accepted by most good followers of the main religions of his time who understood the essence of religion, while others opposed.

  • Of Our 10Th Master - Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj
    TODAY, 25th December 2017 marks the Parkash (coming into the world) of our 10th master - Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj. By dedicating just 5 minutes per day over 4 days you will be able to experience this saakhi (historical account) as narrated by Bhai Vishal Singh Ji from Kavi Santokh Singh Ji’s Gurpartap Suraj Granth. Please take the time to read it and immerse yourselves in our rich and beautiful history, Please share as widely as possible so we can all remember our king of kings Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Ji on this day. Let's not let today pass for Sikhs as just being Christmas! Please forgive us for any mistakes. *Some background information…* When we talk about the coming into this world of a Guru Sahib, we avoid using the word ‘birth’ for anything that is born must also die one day. However, *Satgur mera sada sada* The true Guru is forever and ever (Dhan Guru Ramdaas Ji Maharaj, Ang 758) Thus, when we talk about the coming into the world of Guru Sahibs we use words such as Parkash or Avtar. This is because Maharaj are forever present and on this day They simply became known/visible to us. Similarly, on the day that Guru Sahib leave their physical form, we do not use the word death because although Maharaj gave up their human form, they have not left us. Their jot (light) was passed onto the next Guru Sahib and now resides within Dhan Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj. So, you will often hear people say “Maharaj Joti Jot smaa gai” meaning that their light merged back into the light of Vaheguru.

    QUESTION BANK (LEVEL-I) Class - IV Session - (2019 -20) Note - Revise the syllabus and Prepare for Unit Test- I Solve the QUESTION BANK in RESPECTIVE SUBJECT NOTEBOOKS. ENGLISH Q. 1.Answer the questions based on the Unseen Passages given below: 1. The Snow Caps Not all mountains have snow on top, only the highest ones. That's because when water gets very cold, it freezes and turns into snow or ice -and the higher up a mountain, the colder it gets. The place where a mountain begins to be covered with snow is called its snowline. Sometimes on high mountains, a mass of snow will suddenly slip and begin to slide downhill. This is an avalanche The worst avalanche hurtle downwards like racing cars, at more than 160 km/h. The pressure of snow and ice can crack and break rocks, slowly wearing away the mountains. The most powerful mountain-movers are glaciers, these massive blocks of ice, snow and rock form high in the mountains and flow downhill like vast frozen rivers, carving out valleys. i. What is an avalanche? ii. How are valleys formed? iii. 'Downhill is a compound word. –The meaningful word formed by joining two meaningful words. Think and write three more compound words beginning with 'down' ______________ _____________ _______________ 2.

  • Interfaith Understanding and Communal Harmony
    www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 3 March 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 INTERFAITH UNDERSTANDING AND COMMUNAL HARMONY Saguna Puri Singh The term ‘Interfaith Dialogue refers to the positive, constructive and cooperative interaction between people of different religious faiths and spiritual or humanistic beliefs, at both the individual and institutional levels, with the aim of promoting understanding 1 between different religions to increase acceptance and tolerance. The Parliament of World Religions, held in September 1893,in Chicago USA ,is regarded as a turning point in modern interfaith movement .It brought together leading global voices in the emerging religious studies to promote interfaith understanding and communal harmony .Several global leaders including Swami Vivekananda , one of India s‘ foremost religious philosophers ,a proponent of the Vedanta philosophy in the West, propounded the message of Global harmony ,emphasizing on interfaith and interreligious understanding ,through collaboration between different religious leaders and communities. IJCRT2103040 International Journal of Creative Research Thoughts (IJCRT) www.ijcrt.org 296 www.ijcrt.org © 2021 IJCRT | Volume 9, Issue 3 March 2021 | ISSN: 2320-2882 1 Interfaith dialogue, Wikipedia. The iconic speech of Swami Vivekananda2 had a profound impact on underlining Hinduism’s rich legacy of interfaith, understanding and communal harmony. Today at a time when polarization and fundamentalism has gripped various countries, Vivekananda’s approach for inclusivity to preaching universal tolerance offers a salve. He quoted few lines from hymn. “As the different streams having their sources in different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee” Similar is the case with religion.

  • Authenticity of Standard Version of Dasam Granth: History and Its Text in Literature*
    Authenticity of Standard Version of Dasam Granth: History and its Text in Literature* By: Jasbir Singh Mann M.D. Granths with title as Sri Dasam Granth/or Dasam Patshahi Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, also known as Standard Version of Dasam Granth has been seen since 1897 AD in Circulation in Title prints with fixed compositions/contents with and arrangement of contents in 1428 pages, which was published after correction of 32 Granths by a Sodhak committee 1896AD and in Print form since 1900AD. Review of Literature shows no such Granth with Title Sri Dasam Granth or Dasmi Patshahi Ka Granth (with fixed pattern of Compositions/contents and arrangement) was seen in Punjab or Delhi area Sikh institutions in 18th century. Indian sources, Persian sources & over 30 European sources were silent about this Granth during 18th Century. In Literature Title “Dasmi Patshahi Granth” was first time reported by Malcolm in 1810 AD (early 19th century). Then onwards in early 19th century, such Granths started appearing in Sikh institutions in Punjab, initially in hand written Birs and then in print form in 19th century. By 1895AD, over 32 versions, with variable patterns of compositions in hand written birs, including six printed versions were available in Punjab. Sodhak committee prepared final standard version in 1897 AD which has been extensively used in literature during 20th century (1900AD-2000AD). This Granth has always remained controversial among scholars and Sikh community and issues of authenticity of its compositions can be traced during Cunningham during Pre-Singhsabha /Singh Sabha period and from 1947AD onwards till 2013.

Senior Theses. This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Student Publications at Lake Forest College Publications. It has been accepted for inclusion in Senior Theses by an authorized administrator of Lake Forest College Publications. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Sikhism Reinterpreted: The rC eation of Sikh Identity Abstract The iS kh identity has been misinterpreted and redefined amidst the contemporary political inclinations of elitist Sikh organizations and the British census, which caused the revival and alteration of Sikh history. This thesis serves as a historical timeline of Punjab’s religious transitions, first identifying Sikhism’s emergence and pluralism among Bhakti Hinduism and Chishti Sufism, then analyzing the effects of Sikhism’s conduct codes in favor of militancy following the human Guruship’s termination, and finally recognizing the identity-driven politics of colonialism that led to the partition of Punjabi land and identity in 1947. Contemporary practices of ritualism within Hinduism, Chishti Sufism, and Sikhism were also explored through research at the Golden Temple, Gurudwara Tapiana Sahib Bhagat Namdevji, and Haider Shaikh dargah, which were found to share identical features of Punjabi religious worship tradition that dated back to their origins.

    oor health is a chronic problem for street children. Half of all children in India are malnourished, but for street children the proportion is much higher. These children are not only underweight, but their growth has often been stunted; for example, it is very common to Pmistake a 12 year old for an 8 year old. Poor health is a chronic problem for street children. Half of all children in India are mal- nourished, but for street children the proportion is much higher. These children are not only underweight, but their growth has often been stunted; for example, it is very common to mistake a 12 year old for an 8 year old. 1 Street children live and work amidst trash, animals and open sewers. Not only are they exposed and susceptible to disease, they are also unlikely to be vaccinated or receive medical treatment. Only two in three Indian children have been vaccinated against TB, Diphtheria, Tetanus, Polio and Measles; only one in ten against Hepatitis B. Most street children have not been vaccinated at all. They usually cannot afford, and do not trust, doctors or medicines. If they receive any treatment at all it will often be harmful, as with kids whose parents place scalding metal on their bellies as a remedy for persistent stomach pain. Child laborers suffer from exhaustion, injury, exposure to dangerous chemicals, plus muscle and bone affl ictions. There is much ignorance about reproductive health and many girls suffer needlessly. A girl made infertile by an easily-preventable condition may become un-marriable and so doomed to a life of even greater insecurity ANNUAL REPORT 2018-19 and material hardship.
