Religion is derived from the two latin words “re” and “ligare” which means “to reconnect”. The concept of religion is relatively recent considering that humanity has been on earth for at least 200,000 years and the oldest living religious traditions namely Hinduism date back to only 6000 BCE. So for over 95% of human history, men and women have nourished their sense of spirituality without any formal religious constructs. http://www.wahegurunet.com/the-purpose-of-religion

Guru Nanak's hymns are valuable for their sublime content and literary excellence. I t shows an admirable use of figures of speech. Imagery is used to simplify the suitable thoughts and profound concepts. The images have been taken from every day life and common occurences.

Stop Religious Profiling in US Airports Michael Chertoff Secretary of Homeland Security U.S. Department of Homeland Security Washington, D.C. 20528 Dear Secretary Chertoff, We are writing to you because we are very concerned about a recent policy shift in screening procedures for the Sikh turban in United States airports. It is our understanding that on August 4, 2007, the Transportation Security Administration ("TSA") changed a longstanding policy on security screenings, recommending that passengers with turbans be pulled aside for secondary searches. This means that millions of Sikh travelers will be singled out based on their religious practice, violating the spi…

She wanted to ensure there was no clash in timings,” recounts Dhawan, now 72. Associated with her for 22 uninterrupted years, Dhawan was often referred to as her factotum, confidant and shadow-all…
