Source: Sikh net you tube channel – How do we follow the path of revolutionary love into the fires of the world? What does it take to remake the laws, policies, and culture around us and within our own lives? The Sikh faith, like all wisdom traditions, calls us to walk the path of love through seva (selfless service). Seva is not safe. Seva is not easy. It requires facing the fires of the world with a saint’s eyes and warrior’s heart. But this kind of revolutionary love can lead us to the meaning of our lives. Join this special session with Valarie Kaur, American civil rights activist, Sikh thought leader, and founder of Groundswell Movement and Faithful Internet. Kaur takes you on a journey – from 9/11 to Guantanamo, Oak Creek to Charleston, racial justice to Internet freedom – confronting injustice in the world and within our own homes and families. She leaves you with spiritual and political tools to advance your own voice in the world – from personal faith to public story to online action.
