Описание:

It can be hard to be in the minority anywhere. In America, turban-wearing Sikhs have discovered-especially since 9/11-that setting themselves apart by wearing a distinctive head covering can be downright dangerous. For many reasons, which the author explores, Sikhs in America and elsewhere in the West have been subject to harassment, job discrimination, and prejudice. The author, a turban-wearing Sikh, moved to the United States in 1967 for additional medical training (including at Harvard), eventually settling and practicing in West Virginia. At the time, few Americans had ever seen a turban-wearing Sikh. Though many were curious and friendly, others were uncomfortable and prejudiced toward him. Chatthas experience is not unique among Sikhs living in the United States. In this book, Chattha explores the history of the turban and how it came to be associated almost exclusively with Sikhism. He further explores the choices that the Sikh diaspora must make in their adopted homeland of America: do they keep the turban and the discrimination and prejudice that often accompanies it? Or do they remove it and choose to blend in with the majority? It is a personal choice, and Chattha examines the psychological and social forces that can shape the decision. As part of his research, Chattha conducted a survey of men raised Sikh and their choice of whether to keep the turban. Finally, Chattha examines the challenges to the long-term survival of the turban, including globalization, modernity, and politics.

Описание: Farm-House, My Pilgrimage and Holy Place To have a glimpse of the 'Most Beloved' I wandered around in whole the world. In the process, I picked up all kinds of unbearable heavy loads, followed all kinds of virtues, and turned all kinds of stones but could not achieve anything significant. Tired and broken by duality of mind and hopelessness when once I returned to my farm-house, someone told, "The one in search of whom, you all the way ran to the far away worlds, He, your Beloved was non-stop visiting your farm to see you and bless you with whatever you really aspired" That was in fact the first day of my life when I shared a full glass of hundred percent Home-Made wine with my father and two of my younger brothers Bhiri And Dev.

Описание: Infinite Starts and Ends Up with Me The Infinite, Omnipresent, Omnipotent, And Omniscient, we all know, Is beyond all calculations And measurements. It cannot be seen, measured, Or weighed with limited capacity And tools of finite senses of body. But after proper alignment And complete merger of The self into super, I came to realize That the One Whom we all seek And pray in fact Starts from me And ends up with me. The day I recognized my real self And my real worth I would have seen Him And known Him. I Sometime Ask Him to Wait When sometimes I feel sad and lonely, Tired or exhausted, Because of any reason Whatsoever, I take a little cup of wine. After the very first sip I see Him opening the doors Of His kingdom for me And asking me With folded hands To please get in. I sometimes ask Him to wait, Not disturb, And let me first finish the drink
