Siri Singh Sahib Quote |
"White tantric yoga is, when you achieve supreme happiness of the soul and bliss in the consciousness and you break all doubts and barriers in your subconscious mind. And these are certain fundamental achievements in the life. We always practice a kind of yoga which is absolutely based on White Tantric..." ~Yogi Bhajan, October 30, 1972 in Santa Cruz, CA

This year we will be having a Thanksgiving Gurdwara at 11:00 am on Thanksgiving Day followed by a Wish and a Dish Langar at 12:30 pm. Amrit Singh will be organizing some of the main dish cooking in the langar kitchen. (Please contact him if you would like to be part of his team.) We will have a sign up sheet of dishes to accompany the main dishes, so you can sign up for something you really love to make. If cooking is not your thing, we can always use your help in setting up serving tables, serving and cleaning up after langar. Let's get together, pray and eat together, and make it a warm and cozy Thanksgiving for our big sangat family!

Remembering Simran Singh Khalsa
"In an instant one is born and in an instant one dies. In an instant one come to this world, and in an instant one disappears. One, who recognizes the Shabad and merges into it, is not afflicted by death." ~ Guru Granth Sahib Ji, pg. 58 | Simran Singh with his friend Gobind Singh (left) |

Remembering Shirley Hooper with Love By Hari Kaur "Honey, you want a glass of water or something?" said Shirley Hooper with a wonderful gentle southern drawl. It was 1978, at my first meeting with her, an interview for a job working for her, the Secretary of State, in the Capitol Building in Santa Fe. I had fallen asleep in her cushy soft arm chair across from her desk but she hired me anyway, as her "spiritual guide." She was always that thoughtful and kind and funny with me and everyone else.

Computer Corner - Is there Such a Thing as Privacy Online? by Guruka Singh
Well my quick answer to that question is "no." It's the Aquarian Age. What do you have to hide? In my mind privacy is rapidly becoming an outdated notion. Personally, I just operate under the assumption that nothing is private and do my best to maintain online security using two-tier authentication and good passwords. See my September Computer Corner Column in the Ashram Newsletter for more about online safety. Read Entire Article

Breast Health Tips By Dr. Arjan KaurOctober was "Breast Health Awareness Month".... and I'm going to give you some simple self-care tips that you can implement at home.
Here in America, our health care system highlights the importance of breast health during the month of October. All the information is being offered with the best of intentions, however, I find a couple of very important tips missing from the common dissemination of information: what you can do to keep yourself ahead of the game.
