The Light We Give

How Sikh Wisdom Can Transform Your Life
Book • 2022
The Light We Give is a part memoir, part spiritual journey that delves into the life of Simran Jeet Singh, a Sikh American who grew up in South Texas facing daily racism and bigotry.

Despite these challenges, Singh drew on the tenets of Sikhi to cultivate a life of love, service, and empathy.

The book introduces key Sikh principles such as 'chardi kala' (optimism and gratitude), 'ik oankar' (the divinity within all people), and 'seva' (service to others).

Singh shares personal anecdotes and historical context to illustrate how these teachings can transform lives and promote a more compassionate and just society.
