It marks the beginning of the new solar year, and it holds great significance for both Sikhs and Hindus. For Sikhs, it is a day of immense importance as it marks the formation of the Khalsa, a community of Sikhs who are dedicated to living their lives according to the principles of Sikhism.</p> Wed, 05 Apr 2023 20:21:08 +0000 MORSL 2529 at /morsl /morsl/article/interfaith-dialogue/experience-god <p>Transcendence. Experiencing the divine. Tasting that sweet essence of God. For the Sikh, God has no form. God has no shape, age, race, or gender. God was never born, and will never cease to be. God is. That's it. The Sikh definition of God, found in the beginning of the Sikh scripture (the Aad Guru Granth Sahib) and the main Sikh prayer (the Mool Mantra), is not so much a definition as an anti-definition. God is told to be timeless. The face of God Guru Nanak says the face of God is immortality. The enemy of God? God has no enemy, and God holds no enmity. So what is this God then?</p> Mon, 19 Dec 2022 21:13:56 +0000 Santbir Singh 2419 at /morsl /morsl/article/interfaith-dialogue/600-years-dialogue-sikh-perspective <p>It is interesting that the idea of interfaith dialogue is coming to the forefront now. People are just realizing what it is and acknowledging its tributes. What more people don't know is that the idea of interfaith dialogue and tolerance is an ancient concept. For Sikhs, it goes back to the 15th century, when Guru Nanak, the first prophet of Sikhism, promoted a lifestyle of love, humility, and respect. This lifestyle evolved into an ideology that revolutionized the eastern hemisphere and captured the hearts of many.</p> Thu, 17 Nov 2022 21:35:00 +0000 Raveeta Seetal 2395 at /morsl /morsl/article/holidays-and-holy-days/how-i-celebrate-diwali <p>Did you know that Saturday, October 22nd marks the beginning of Diwali,聽a five-day celebration of the Indian festival of lights? One of the most popular festivals in South Asian cultures, Diwali is celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, some Buddhists. Although this harvest festival has different meanings for various religions, it generally symbolizes the spiritual "victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance".</p> Tue, 18 Oct 2022 18:21:07 +0000 MORSL 2360 at /morsl /morsl/article/interfaith-dialogue/sikh-faith-and-academic-life <p>At many universities, the wave to achieve academic merit can often sweep students away. In many instances, advancement in today's modern world becomes a domineering focus in many aspects of life. Religion and faith seem to have little place in the academic struggle, as religious principles may seemingly hinder the attainment of one's goals. However, the creation of a medium between faith and academic pursuits may be more fulfilling in the long run.</p> Thu, 24 Nov 2022 18:23:19 +0000 Gurinder Samrai 2400 at /morsl /morsl/channels/event/kirtan-campus-january-30-316892 <p>MORSL is pleased to host the 苹果淫院 Sikh Students on <b>January 30聽</b>for another聽Kirtan聽evening.
