Any other movies you can recommend which can give inspiration to be brave or life pious life?

Any movie about deep meanings of life, about wisdom?

Veer ji, check those above out. 

I'm also watching a series on Amazon Prime called The man in the high castle right now. It's fiction, and set in a world where the nazis and japanese won WW2 and have conquered america. I'm upto season 2 now, and I think it's really good in terms of the themes it covers. Including why some people fight revolutions and why some don't. Check that out if you can. It weaves in metaphysics and spirituality as well as eugenics in the narrative. 

 

 

 

I've heard about this film Hacksaw Ridge, but haven't watched it yet. Although I doubt it's inline with Sikhi because the main character (based on real like) is a pacifist. But looks interesting. It's a Christian film I guess?

All that said, I found Jagjit Singh's book The Sikh Revolution really informative and inspiring. Especially after I learned one of his mentors was the true living shaheed and revolutionary Sohan Singh Bhakna of the Ghadar Party.

Only vaguely because I think a book was written about him recently and I read the review. Looks like a very interesting figure. Would like to learn more about him.

This is a must read too:

Marcus Garvey too. But I haven't read up on him yet.

Just finished season 2 of Amazon Prime's The man in the high castle. Shockingly good so far. Been binge watching it.

I guess the only real reason I was originally interested in this movie was that I've been a Spiderman fan since I was a little boy. I just watch this earlier and I really liked it. 

The story is good but it also shows you how medics operate in madaans and how afeem (morphine) is used.
