by SS Dharma Kaur Khalsa, Millis MA 2022 (First Quarter) With the inspiration of the Sikh Gurus and my own family heritage, I am moved to serve the sangat in many ways—as a wife and mother, and in particular with the service of healthy food for the community near and far. In the summer of 2020, we started a food relief program called Guru Nanak’s Community Kitchen here in Millis, Massachusetts. Our core values of sharing and giving with love and kindness to all mean a great deal to me and to all those who have supported our food program.

Pioneers of Sikh Dharma/3HO
by SS Sarb Jit Kaur Khalsa, Ram Das Puri NM 2021 (First Quarter) Editor’s Note: When I invited Sarb Jit Kaur, one of the earliest pioneers in our Dharma, to tell her story, she initially declined, due to her responsibilities as the Aquarian Trainer Academy Administrator. Nevertheless, I cajoled her into being interviewed on Skype. She wondered what on earth she could talk about, but once she got started, there was no stopping her! This is the abbreviated version of her story. Stay tuned: She has resolved to write her memoirs once she has the leisure time that retirement will provide!—SS

#42 Winter 2011 Newsletter
The theme for our 2011 quarterly Sikh Dharma Ministry newsletters has been the Dawning Aquarian Age. In our last three issues we asked Ministers to address the topic of how we are making the transition to the new times ahead. What tools are we using as Ministers and as individuals to keep up? For the Winter 2011 issue we asked several of our Sikh Dharma ministers to address the topic of how, as a body of Ministers, we can function as an energetic body, akin to the yogic concept of Vyana Prana Vayu. (In the yogic teachings, the Vyana Prana Vayu is based in the heart

An Aquarian Teacher
by SS Guruatma Kaur Khalsa, Houston TX Fall 2011 Back in 1970, my parents sent me to the stage production of “Hair” for my high school graduation present. That glorious melody and those hopeful words of the Age of Aquarius song are forever etched in my musical databank. At the time, I did not realize that this phenomenon was a real-life happening. Last year, while teaching a seven-month Project-Prosperity course, it “dawned” on me that I had been teaching the class from a Piscean perspective. We were studying The Law of Projection (“One must ask, and have clarity and vision

Journey of the Heart
by SS Mata Manidir Kaur Khalsa, Herndon VA Fall 2011 The Age of Aquarius is the age of knowledge and experience. As we enter this age as ministers, we have a powerful tool for educating ourselves.

We interviewed SS Mata Mandir Kaur Khalsa about her journey developing and facilitating this wonderful course. Q: How was Journey to the Heart of Sikh Dharma created and how did you become the facilitator? MMK: In 2000, Siri Sikdar Sahiba Sardarni Guru Amrit Kaur was working on a minister

Change of the Age
by SS Guru Nam Singh and SS Sat Jivan Kaur Khalsa, McAllen TX Spring 2011 Life is a continuous succession of changes. There are changes in everything and everywhere. Humans are accustomed to these changes and we adapt naturally to them. However, some changes have a greater impact on our lives than others. Moving the furniture around in a room of my house is a change, but it is a much more important change if I move from one city to another. Having a new coworker at the office involves change and adjustment, but if I have a new job

Starting the Conversation
by SS Snatam Kaur Khalsa, Espanola NM Spring 2011 Because I grew up in Sikh Dharma and 3HO I became very familiar with the concept that in my lifetime there would be a monumental transformation called “the coming of the Aquarian Age.” Somehow for many years I envisioned that there would be a massive and almost explosive transformation in which all the people would suddenly be intuitive and completely spiritual. Although this is a very exciting way for things to happen, and it may still happen this way, lately my perspective on the whole coming of the Aquarian Age phenomenon

Guru Ram Das Ji’s Box
by SS Hari Kaur Khalsa, Espanola, NM Winter 2010 Fall/Winter has always been such a deeply fulfilling time of year for me. The cottonwood leaves are turning golden, and I am drying chamomile and learning to make calendula oil from yellow and orange calendula flowers. This is also the time of celebrating Guru Ram Das’ birthday. For 11 nights, the Espanola sangat gathers at different people’s homes and we chant Dhan Dhan Ram Das Gur for 31 minutes together and hear a story about our beloved Guru Ram Das and then eat a delicious dinner together. One night, we had
