Sojhi: A Kid's Cast

Join Jasveen Kaur as she explores the sakhis, the stories from the Gurus' lives. This episode focuses on the significance of serving others and the opportunities to embrace and celebrate these experiences. In this sakhi, children will discover that seva doesn't have to feel like a chore or burden; with the right mindset, one can find joy in it.

If you've ever visited a gurduara (Sikh place of learning), you might have wondered about certain things, such as the abundance of food (langar) being prepared and the diverse group of people engaging in seva (service). This leads us to Mata Khivi Ji, who believed that Vahiguru is present in everyone around us. She led the langar seva, from growing vegetables to cooking and serving food to cleaning the kitchen. In Mata Khivi Ji's example, Seva becomes a delightful celebration of cooperation, love, and community-building.

Join Tandeep Kaur as she explores the sakhis in Panjabi, the stories from the Gurus' lives. In this particular episode, she delves into the themes of sharing and caring. The Sacha Sauda sakhi sheds light on the genuine meaning behind sharing, caring, and engaging in honest trade.

Guru Nanak Sahib faces a dilemma when he enters the village to gather materials for a potential business. The question arises: will the Guru heed his parents' advice or act in a manner that significantly benefits others? Compassion forms the core of caring, and for Guru Nanak Sahib, prioritizing the feeding of the hungry becomes a higher calling. It serves as a perfect example for all of us to follow.

Vahiguru created everything, and Vahiguru is all around us. Thank you all for joining us throughout this glowing journey we’ve all had with one another. It has been a pleasure sharing the sakhis of Guru Nanak Sahib.

In this final podcast, we will get to hear a sakhi centering around Guru ji’s important decision: who will be the next Guru?

Guru ji has taught us all so many life lessons; a special one is being discussed in this final episode: the need for us to live enriched, full lives while here in this world. We must work our hardest to make this world the best it can be, not only for ourselves but also for those who come next.

Do you know about Bhumi? The rich landlord from Dhaka, India? Well, if you don’t know of him, hit the play button. This is a sakhi you’re not going to want to miss.

There’s a reason why Bhumi was so rich. Guru ji learned why and he demanded that Bhumi make good on the pain that he had caused. But rather than going the traditional route, Guru ji requested that Bhumi follow through with four promises. Guru ji wanted Bhumi to learn his lesson and be true to his word and follow the right path.

Promises are never meant to be broken. They have significance in relationships, communication, and respect. Find out if Bhumi kept his promises.

Listen to learn more about Bhumi’s path from crime to compassion.

Book: Sakhi Time with Nani ji

The next sakhi takes us to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Around the year 1525, Guru ji and Bhai Mardana arrived in Mecca. Guru ji’s interaction with the qazi (a Muslim scholar) was very shaky at first because the qazi thought  Guru ji was disrespectful. The qazi felt that Guru ji should not be pointing his feet towards the Kaa’ba.

To the qazi, Vahiguru existed only in Kaa’ba. Guru ji tuned into this and made it a point to educate the qazi that Vahiguru is all around us. Vahiguru created everything and exists within every heart. It’s important to see what the meaning of such truly is.

Listen to this podcast to enlighten your mind about Vahiguru.

Onto our next sakhi; this one reflects on doing the right thing. Every day, we are motivated and inspired to do kind acts for one another and always speak up. Guru ji was the absolute embodiment of this ideal. Guru ji was even sent to prison for doing the right thing!

Vahiguru exists in everyone – even in those who don’t embody what Guru ji stood for. Surprisingly, mean people also have Vahiguru in them; they just have forgotten that. All they need is a special reminder from a place of love that Vahiguru is in them. Begin listening to the podcast now; you’re going to get inspired to do the right thing.

The next sakhi in our series takes us to the town of Puri, in India. The Mayor of the town invited Guru ji and Bhai Mardana to listen to Aarti, a special prayer performed by the priests. Guru ji happily accepted. The next day, at the prayer service, Guru ji angered the priests by not following them in prayer.

This beautiful sakhi highlights compassion to people and their different needs, desires, and choices. Vahiguru has no shape or form; Vahiguru is everywhere around us.

Listen to this podcast; it’s filled with stars, lamps, and pearls.
