Summary
The Light We Give : How Sikh Wisdom Can Transform Your Life
In The Light We Give, Simran Jeet Singh - writer, educator, and human rights activist - shares a powerful approach to living a purposeful and rewarding life. Growing up in Texas the son of Indian immigrants, he has confronted racism, bullying, and ethnic slurs throughout his life: at school, on the athletic field, in his San Antonio neighborhood, and on the streets of New York City. Instead of growing bitter or angry, Singh draws from Sikh teachings to seek out the good in every situation and find positive ways to direct his energy. These tenets of love, caring, and service to others have empowered him to forge a life of connection and a commitment to justice that have brought him deep happiness and made him a national figure in the areas of diversity, inclusion, and social justice. The Light We Give is a new approach to building a personal vision of ethical living in which love, caring, and service go hand in hand with personal happiness.
