Adapted from W McSherry - `Making Sense of Spiritual Care in Nursing and Healthcare Practice’ (pub Jessica Kingsley, 2006) Each year the Chaplaincy Team provides a study day for chaplaincy staff and volunteers. This year on 10th May our theme is ‘Dying Matters’ (coinciding with ‘Dying Matters Awareness Week’, 9th to 15th May). The Palliative Care Team and the Bereavement Support Service will tell us more about their services. We’ll consider different faiths’ rites of passage at the end of life, then finish by acknowledging our personal responses to these subjects. We’ll finish with a tour of the Guru Tegh Bahadur. .

  • The Five K’S
    Sikhism The Five K’s The Five K’s Summary: The Five K’s are the markers of Sikh identity, and they consist of: uncut hair, a short sword or knife, a steel wristband, a wooden comb, and shorts worn as an undergarment. The observance of the Five K’s was originally the mark of the Khalsa. However, many Sikhs keep these distinctive emblems of Sikh identity without having been initiated into the Khalsa. The Five K’s continually remind Sikhs of the ethical and spiritual implications of aligning one’s life with truth. Sikh men in America and throughout the world are easily recognized because of their turbans, flowing beards and stainless steel wristbands. The turban is worn in fulfillment of one of the basic vows of Sikhs—not to cut the hair, but to let it grow naturally as a sign of complete dedication, body and soul, to God. Both men and women keep this vow, women wearing a long head scarf called a chunni and men wearing the turban. This marker of Sikh identity is but one of what are called the “Five K’s” kept by Sikhs, each one of which begins with the letter “k” in Punjabi: 1. Kes: The word means simply “hair” and as a Sikh vow refers to uncut hair. 2. Kirpan: A short sword or knife. 3. Karha: A steel wristband. 4. Kangha: A wooden comb worn in the hair knot. 5. Kacchera: Shorts, worn as an undergarment. In 1699, the Sikhs, besieged with troubles and at war with the Mughal government of northern India, rallied around Guru Gobind Singh.

  • 5 Facts You Need to Know About Sikhism 1. Sikhism Originated in Northern India More Than 300 Years Ago with a Core Belief That P
    5 Facts You Need to Know About Sikhism 1. Sikhism originated in Northern India more than 300 years ago with a core belief that people of different races, religions, or sex are all equal in the eyes of God. Today Sikhism is the world’s fifth-largest organized religion, with more that 25 million Sikhs around the world including over half a million in the United States. 2. The word Sikh means seeker of truth. It is most commonly pronounced as seek but sick is closer to the original pronounciation. 3. Many Sikhs keep their hair uncut as a sign of living in harmony with God wearing turbans as a mark of their faith. 3. Nearly every person seen wearing a turban in the United States is a Sikh. The turban-or dastaar- is akin to the Jewish Kippah or yarmulke or the Catholic nun’s habit. It is an outward sign and reminder of values and faith. 4. Within Sikhism there are 5 articles of faith which include the kes (uncut hair), kara (a steel bracelet worn to remind them of the unity of God), the kirpan (a ceremonial dagger-often in the form of a small charm that is meant to remind Sikhs of the duty to fight injustice), kacchera (undergarment)and a kangha (comb). 5. The Sikh house of worship is known as a gurdwara- (door to the Guru). Local gurdwaras are the holiest places in Sikhism. Services usually include hymns, reading and prayer, however there are no formal clergy or complex rituals. Following services many gather for the langer meal- a community meal where all are welcome.

  • Sikh Women: Text, Sacred Stitches, Turban
    Vol. 5, no. 1 (2015), 35-51 | DOI: 10.18352/rg.10085 Seeking the Image of ‘Unmarked’ Sikh Women: Text, Sacred Stitches, Turban DORIS R. JAKOBSH* Abstract With the inauguration of the Khalsa in 1699 by the tenth guru of the Sikhs, Guru Gobind Singh, a new understanding of ‘being Sikh’ was put in place. In examining the earliest prescriptive texts of the Khalsa, manifestations of Sikh religio-cultural identity and visual distinctiveness were deeply connected to the male Sikh body. This study locates Sikh women within a number of these early ritual and textual ordinances while also exploring how Sikh female religio-cultural materiality is contradistinct to the normative Khalsa male body. The production of phulkaris, a form of embroidered head covering (but having other uses as well) was historically associated with Sikh women and are here examined as alternate forms of religious belonging, ritual production and devotion. This study concludes with an examination of how the turban, for a small number of diasporic Sikh women, can be understood both as a rejection of traditional Sikh female ideals, as well as a novel form of Sikh women’s identity construction that is closely aligned with Sikh masculine ideals. Keywords Sikhism/Sikhs and women; Sikhism/Sikhs and gender; religious identity construction; materiality; phulkaris; turbans. Author affiliation Doris R. Jakobsh is Associate Professor in the Department of Religious Studies, University of Waterloo in Canada and Associate Chair, Graduate Studies for the department. She has degrees from the University of Waterloo, Harvard University and the University of British Columbia and is the author of Relocating Gender in Sikh History: Transformation, Meaning and Identity, OUP (2003, 2005), and Sikhism, University of Hawaii Press (2011).
