FRAY International Sustainability Award
Guru Nanak's noble ideals of universal fellowship, the welfare of all (Sarbat da bhala), compassion, Selfless Service (Seva), resource-sharing (Wand Chhakanaa) and its principles of social equality, justice, liberty, and fraternity place tremendous responsibility on all of us for addressing the problems of peaceful co-existence across the world. To achieve sustainable peace worldwide, we must strive to lead our lives according to these cherished ideals and principles.
In this way, Guru Nanak, not only enunciated the basic cause of human conflict but also suggested and promoted practical ways out of such a situation. Thus, being a passionate adherent and a strong supporter of the cause of peace, we can certainly say that he was an apostle of peace.
"Own Your Life: Create as You Go" outlines Parm Sran's journey of life transformation. From a person suffering from clinical depression, in constant denial of her condition, suffering from self-limiting beliefs, past regrets, anger, guilt and relationship conflicts to her transformation into a person full of positive energy, enthusiasm, optimism and leading an exemplary life full of joy and peace, is quite a journey, worth knowing.
Equality for women has always been one of the main attributes of Sikhism, and a great number of women have made significant contributions in the past. Sikh history is replete with exemplars that portray women as equal to men in service, devotion, sacrifice, and bravery.
There is a dire lack of Sikh literature in different languages, be it Hindi, Urdu, English etc. Sikh families living in other states of India or Western countries are facing a challenging situation to motivate their children. The need for Gumat based educational tools is at an all-time high.
