Building connection: exploring Sikhism with Amandeep Singh

In this episode we talk with Amandeep Singh of the Singh Sabha Sikh temple in Goodmayes, East London. 

In the conversation, Amandeep runs through some of the basics of the Sikh faith: the Nishan Sahib, the layout of a Gurdwara and the importance of the Langar hall. We also talk about the foundations of Sikhism and how it developed as a religion that stood against persecution of all forms. We finish considering the fundamentals of the faith as expressed in the Ik Onkar.

The overriding theme throughout the interview that Amandeep emphasises is the power of connection that is built through the strength of the Sikh community, its rich history and its enduring power as a force for justice in the world.
