Road, Amritsar Punjab GHG Khalsa College of Education, Gurusar Sadhar, Ludhiana Bombay Teachers’ Training College, Colaba, Mumbai (v) Message In a country where divinity and truth were once manipulated, people had become a prey to caste and creed, and brutality was unleashed by the invaders, Guru Nanak Dev ji came as a guide to bring enlightenment, strength, veracity and spirituality to the mankind. To a society that was blotted with quagmire of bigotry, Guru Nanak Dev ji brought the message that the immortal omniscient Creator resides within the soul of the humans. He addressed all communities and requested them to choose intrinsic worth and inherent compassion; and shun malevolence, chauvinism and fanaticism while practicing their individual faiths to lead a perfect life. On the august occasion 550th birth anniversary of the founder of Sikhism, who always inspired the believers to live by remembering the creator, working hard and sharing with the needy, I congratulate Dr. Bhagwan Balani and Dr. Mandeep Kaur for organising this event at BTTC, Colaba. It is believed that from his childhood, Guru Nanak Dev ji was inclined towards the divine quest. He indulged in understanding and discussing the message of Eternal Truth given by the Creator. To help the spiritually weak (vii) masses, he toured across the globe to campaign against spiritual hypocrisy and religious manoeuvring, and people flocked to obtain spiritual guidance from hm. This unrelenting devotee of the all-pervading Akalpurakh (the Creator) advocated concept of oneness, Ekankar. His doctrines — Naam Japo, Kirat Karo and Vand Chhako demarcate a way of life prompt the human race to tread on the path of honesty, happiness and contentment. Guru Nanak Dev ji believed that education should benefit humanity and its main objective should be self-realisation and progression towards a better society. He was not a cleric or an educationist and yet ascended to the unfathomable zenith of spirituality. The first function of education, therefore, for us should be to nurture the human mind and produce quality human resources. Education is truly a global force that provides the aptitude to recognize our capabilities, and become progressive, rational and benevolent citizens. It gives vent to the exceptional and budding potential of the youth and diverts their dynamism and vitality towards a constructive and productive society and economy, and we, the educators, should strive to prepare our students to lead the journeys of their lives successfully. Once again, I extend warm wishes and heartiest congratulations to everyone who is helping in their own ways, big or small, to make this seminar a success. (Jaspal Singh Sandhu) (viii) Message I am very happy to know that the Bombay Teachers’ Training College, Colaba, Mumbai has organised a National Seminar on Sindhiyat and Ideology of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji : Leading to a Virtuous World to commemorate the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak. The College has also compiled a book containing 40 papers on the subject, written by different scholars from many colleges of Punjab, Chandigarh and Delhi. The best way to celebrate an event related to a great soul is to propagate his thoughts and preachings. It is therefore extremely appropriate to publish such a book that will help in spreading the teachings of Guru Nanak among a wide group of readers belonging to different faiths and religions. Guru Nanak was not a leader of any particular religion. His teachings cut across religious boundaries. It is therefore not surprising that the Sindhis follow Guru Nanak as their religious leader as much as the Sikhs do. Celebration of the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak by the College run by a Trust of the Sindhi community in Mumbai, by way of holding this seminar and by publishing this book, is commendable. I convey my best wishes to this laudable venture of the Bombay Teachers’ Training College. U P S Madan (ix) Message I want to congratulate Dr. Bhagwan Balani and Dr. Mandeep Kaur for organising this event at BTTC, Colabaon the 550th year of Guru Nanak Dev as the contemporary world has lot to learn from his life. Guru Nanak Dev, as a child, went to school, was inquisitive, brilliant and philosophical. He was fond of company of spiritual people and sought answers to purpose of life. Guru Nanak was also a householder, had two children, and worked hard all his life - in earlier years in various vocations and later years, after his famous four missionary journeys, as a farmer. Philosophically, Guru Nanak emphasized that God is one and beyond any religious divisions. The teachings of Guru Nanak were logical and easy to understand. His definition of God is most interesting - One, True Name, Creator, Fearless, Without Vengeance, Beyond Time, Does not Incarnate, Self-existent, Understood only by Grace. Guru Nanak explains that the purpose of life is to become truthful for which one has to purify actions. He emphasized on dignity of labor, and observed that Truth is Highest Virtue but Truthful Living is still higher. To attain this truthfulness, one has to purify the mind by sculpturing consciousness where divine knowledge plays an important role. Guru Nanak observed that Dharma is a product of compassion, supported by contentment. Guru Nanak preached that as you sow so shall you reap and therefore encouraged everybody to cultivate virtues. On social issues, for Guru Nanak, the complete creation is from one God and therefore no one could claim to be superior or inferior. Guru Nanak (xi) emphasized equality of complete human race, irrespective of caste, color, creed, gender or race. On environment, Guru Nanak guides that Earth has to be treated like Mother, water like Father, and Air like Guru. Therefore, one has to guard against any type of pollution to the environment. On economics and commerce, Guru Nanak emphasized on literacy, gaining knowledge, healthy living, increased workforce, and encouraging investment. Again, emphasis was on ethics and truthful behavior. The message of Guru Nanak, is to lead a householder’s life, work hard and then share something in charity. This message is encapsulated in Naam Japo, Kirat Karo, and Vand Chakko or Meditate, Earn Honestly, and Share with Others. Sikh philosophy does not believe that the acquisition of property or wealth is evil, but the mental attachment to material wealth or maya is to be avoided. The universal message taught by great Guru is applicable to all of us – students of life, and is as relevant to the world now, as it was in the fifteenth century when it was first delivered. According to Guru Nanak, serving needy and hungry is an important duty of the society. To the sages in the mountains, he urged them that if all good and pious people retire to mountains to meditate, how will the world improve. So, we educationists also need to dedicate our life to serving the world and not stay isolated in ivory towers of our elite institutions. Dr. Charan Singh CEO & Director, Foundation for Economic Growth and Welfare Former Research Director RBI, Non Executive Chairman, PSB (xii) Message It is a matter of great pleasure to know that Bombay Teachers’ Training College, Colaba, Mumbai is organising a National Seminar (in collaboration with Khalsa College of Education, G. T. Road, Amritsar and GHG Khalsa College of Education, Gurusar Sadhar, Ludhiana) on ‘Sindhiyat and Ideology of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji: Leading to a Virtuous World’. In an era when the people of diverse faiths live in mortal fear of clash of cultures, and the so-called civilized nations compete in the clandestine manufacture of destructive weaponery, organising the seminar for rousing the message of Guru Nanak for peaceful co-existence and mutual trust acquires a special urgency. I extend my warm wishes to the college fraternity on the auspicious occasion for its continuing success. Congratulations to all on 550th Birth Anniversary Year of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Let us come forward to revive and preach the humanistic mission launched by Guru Nanak for the welfare of peace for all around the world. Best Wishes ! Rajindermohan Singh Chhina Honorary Secretary Khalsa College Charitable Society Amritsar (xiii) Message It is my privilege to send my best wishes to the Management, Principal, Staff and Students of Bombay Teachers Training College, Colaba, Mumbai and the Sindhi Community for commemorating the 550th birth anniversary of Shri Guru Nanak Dev ji.

  • Global Sindhis Interview FINAL 01.Cdr
    Dr. L. H. Hiranandani Jawhrani: Welcome Sir! It is said that previously you were known as Lakhoomal Hiranand Kandhari. How did you switch over from Kandhari to Hiranandani? Dr. L. H.: After the fall of King Dahar, Sindh became part of the Islamic world. Previously, Brahmins were present in great numbers in Sindh and used to dot the landscape. Arabs, being wary of their knowledge and clout, killed all of them and thus literally cleared Sindh of all the Hindus. It is said, that Sindhis then came from outside. We Bhatias, are known to have come from Jaisalmer. Jaisalmer is a barren land and bereft of water. The people living there migrated to areas where they could have access to water and for this simple reason they preferred Sindh and settled near the banks of the river Indus. The people of Jaisalmer were known as Bhati which became Bhatia, once they came to Sindh. Some of them had also gone to Punjab and presently Bhatias live in Sindh as well as Punjab. Bhatias are then divided into various sub castes, such as Assar Pota or Khinara. We belong to the Khinara sub- caste. Sindhis, even in those early days, were quite enterprising, and for business purposes traveled abroad quite often. My great grandfather's several sojourns to Kandhar on regular basis gave our family the name Kandhari . Jawhrani: And so from Bhatia to Kandhari and from Kandhari to Hiranandani, perhaps from your father’s name- ‘Hiranand’. Dr. L. H. : Yes. Jawhrani: Can we have some more details about your family? Dr.

Singha Former Principal, Guru Harkrishan Public School Vasant Vihar, New Delhi and Chairman eSSE, New Delhi Satwant Kaur Page 1 of 38 INTRODUCTION Understanding different religions and the basic elements underlying them, lays the foundation for a good human being. Such understanding must be imparted at an early age. Keeping this in view, Sikh Public Schools in India have introduced religious instruction known as 'Sikh Studies' or 'Divinity' as a compulsory part of their curriculum. The present series has been developed to provide them a complete course in the subject upto the secondary stage. The series is also aimed at meeting the needs of Sikh children settled abroad by giving them graded tools for study at home or in a Sunday school.

THE SERIES CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING BOOKS: Book I-II are meant as a launching pad for a study of Sikhism by junior children. They cover the basic facts about Sikhism for beginners. As reading skills are being developed at this stage, illustrations are profusely given to be used as a fulcrum. We also solicit the support of parents and teachers for imparting knowledge. Hints for them have been given at the end of each chapter. Book III-V give sakhis or stories about the Sikh Gurus. They have become a part of the folklore in Punjab.

  • Hinduism and Social Work
    5 Hinduism and Social Work *Manju Kumar Introduction Hinduism, one of the oldest living religions, with a history stretching from around the second millennium B.C. to the present, is India’s indigenous religious and cultural system. It encompasses a broad spectrum of philosophies ranging from pluralistic theism to absolute monism. Hinduism is not a homogeneous, organized system. It has no founder and no single code of beliefs; it has no central headquarters; it never had any religious organisation that wielded temporal power over its followers. Hinduism does not have a single scripture as the source of its various teachings. It is diverse; no single doctrine (or set of beliefs) can represent its numerous traditions. Nonetheless, the various schools share several basic concepts, which help us to understand how most Hindus see and respond to the world. Ekam Satya Viprah Bahuda Vadanti — “Truth is one; people call it by many names” (Rigveda I 164.46). From fetishism, through polytheism and pantheism to the highest and the noblest concept of Deity and Man in Hinduism the whole gamut of human thought and belief is to be found. Hindu religious life might take the form of devotion to God or gods, the duties of family life, or concentrated meditation. Given all this diversity, it is important to take care when generalizing about “Hinduism” or “Hindu beliefs.” For every class of * Ms. Manju Kumar, Dr. B.R.

    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.

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.

  • Sikh Perspectives on Sharing Wisdom, Pal Ahluwalia 1
    SHARING WISDOM A SIKH PERSPECTIVE PAL AHLUWALIA What Is Wisdom? You may read and read loads of books; you may read and study vast multitudes of books. You may read and read boat-loads of books; you may read and read and fill pits with them. You may read them year after year; you may read them as many months as there are. You may read them all your life; you may read them with every breath. O Nanak, only one thing is of any account: everything else is useless babbling and idle talk in ego (SGGS Ji p. 467). Wisdom cannot be found through mere words. To explain it is as hard as iron. When the Lord bestows His Grace, then alone it is received; other tricks and orders are useless (SGGS Ji p. 465). There is a significant difference between one who has acquired knowledge and one who is wise. We know of people who are intellectually brilliant but who lack the capacity to engage beyond their particular area of specialisation. And yet, we know of people who are not renowned for their intellectual brilliance but who have an understanding and wisdom that seems Sikh Perspectives on Sharing Wisdom, Pal Ahluwalia 1 beyond mere intellect. These individuals are often characterised as having character, virtue and insight. They are able to cut through to the core of complexity with elegant simplicity. Wisdom is the ability to know that which is of the deepest significance. This ‘knowing’ comes not through mental calculation or shrewdness but rather through what we may call ‘intuition.’ This form of knowing is about an inner experience, an inner knowing that is embodied within us.
