by SS Siri Chand Singh Khalsa, Espanola NM Fall 2019 These are very interesting times we live in. It is quite evident; I don’t think I even need to write any examples to justify this claim. We are experiencing the great consciousness shift that the Siri Singh Sahib spoke about, as well as the chaos that he warned would come along with it. These can be very challenging times, but if we see beyond the limited scope of what the media shows, these can also be very inspiring times. However, one thing is clear: these are not “easy” times.

by SS Guru Darshan Kaur Khalsa, Puebla, Mexico Fall 2019 Having found a Dharmic path of life has given my soul unspeakable satisfaction.

After many hours of delay, I arrived in Chicago nine hours later than expected. There was a sea of anxious people waiting in the airport as a result of the severe weather conditions. After my

The Art and Science of Simran
by SS Harsimranjeet Singh Khalsa, Ottawa, ON, Canada Fall 2019 We have taken birth into the Iron Age (Kali Yuga), and its inherent nature is one of turmoil, tragedy, and duality. This is the darkest age, where our emotions and instinctive animal nature exert control over the mind and therefore our actions. Grace and wisdom are in short supply. The use of intoxicants, drugs, and unsustainable lifestyles are rising as quickly as are rates of mental health conditions; many look outwards for a solution to what is going on inside. Thankfully, the Guru has given us a technology for self-elevation
