Teaching in China
By S.S. Hari Nam Singh Khalsa
S.S. Hari Nam Singh and
his wife, Kulwant Kaur
from Portland, Oregon
recently returned from
teaching in China.

Hong Kong, BeiJing and
Shanghai communities
hosted Hari Nam Singh¡¯s
weekend workshop entitled,
¡°Strong As Steel,
Steady As Stone.¡± The
experience offers a way
to integrate the technology
of Kundalini Yoga
and the teachings of the
Sikh masters, particularly
Guru Gobind Singh, to
inspire infinite courage in
the heart of the student.

It was well attended and all
the students gave every
ounce of their being. ¡°Their
fearless attitude and humble
kindness were both inspiring
and memorable. All
our brothers and sisters
there touched our hearts so
deeply¡­there are no words
to describe how blessed we
feel having been in their
presence.

Virtually all our other time
in Shanghai was spent
counseling members of the
community on whatever
matter was of concern. It
was a great honor representing
the Dharma and our
spiritual teacher there.¡±



Life in Bolivia, or How a destiny begins to Unfold...
This is S.S. Dharma Kaur Khalsa writing from the Heart of South America, at 14,000 feet in La Paz, Bolivia.
How does a Chilean born, German descendant lawyer become an American Citizen, a Sikh, a Yogi, and a
Kundalini Yoga Teacher, and end up traveling through South America for months at a time spreading the
Word of Nanak, the Grace of Guru Ram Das and the Spirit of Guru Gobind Singh?! The story is long and
some day you might be able to read it completely. For now, let¡¯s just say that the conscious seed that would
sprout this quest was planted in 2001 by Yogi Bhajan. He told me personally that it was my destiny to represent
him some day in ¡°all those countries where they speak your language (Spanish), because I won¡¯t be able
to go any more, to contribute to build the Khalsa Nation.¡±
It is by contrast and opposites that we learn to appreciate and that is what this journey has become: appreciation
of all the blessings that I encounter day after day, in me and around me: A beautiful sangat and an amazing
country. A loving family has opened their hearts and arms, making a new home for me in this part of the
world. But not all has been receiving, a lot has also been giving, and day after day the little seeds planted are
becoming evident: people taking courageous steps in their lives, students committing to a daily practice of
intense kriyas, children enlisting to be students of Miri Piri Academy in India, daily evening meditations for
Guru Ram Das Ji¡¯s birthday at the homes of the Sangat members, and a monthly Gurdwara, to name a few.
And on the other side is an amazing personal journey of growth and expansion that is making me the teacher
that I am destined to be. With Bolivia as my ¡°home base¡± in South America, I have begun this journey,
which my beloved teacher, Yogi Ji, entrusted to me, and Guru carved on my forehead. Humbly, I bow to this
mission that I am finally allowed to fulfill.
