Transformation of Manvir Singh Khalsa
  • Bhai Sahib Ji converted to Sikhism as a teenager
    and became a Singh of Khalsa. To its sermon, he
    preaches spiritual and religious stories about
    Sikh history and philosophy. Bhai Manvir Singh is
    an amazing and inspiring Gurmukh who lives in the
    United Kingdom.

5
  • Bhai Sahib, who was born in a Sikh family as a
    mona (person with short hair), converted to Sikhi
    during his adolescence. He now does a lot of Sewa
    for the youth, works as a Religious Studies
    teacher, and inspires Sikhs who are incarcerated.
    Manvir Singh UK feels very proud of his parents
    because he was raised with Sikh values and
    beliefs.

6
  • He can do Keertan, read Gurbaani, and is
    interested in Sikh philosophy and history. He is
    not to be a saint, but as he grew older, he has
    realized the importance of actions and the
    distinction between Gurmat and manmat acts.
    However, he had always felt something was missing
    in my life, like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of
    missing pieces.

7
  • His kesh was one of those pieces that were
    missing. Kesh had always been a dream since he
    was a child. As he grew older, he discovered more
    about Sikhi and began to understand it better. He
    liked going to the Gurdwara and sitting in Saadh
    Sangat, listening to what the person on stage
    said. When he was younger, his father would tie a
    pagh around the waist when we went to the
    Gurdwara.

8
  • He enjoyed wearing the dastaar, and he used to
    tie paghs by himself when he was about twelve to
    fourteen years old, with a little help from his
    father. Teachers ask about his religion at
    school. When he told them he was a Sikh, they
    would say, Yeah, but why your hair is cut? The
    Sikhs are supposed to have uncut hair and wear a
    turban. Then he confidently says that he is not
    religious.

9
  • He was embarrassed because he wanted to tie a
    turban, but he regularly got his hair cut. There
    arent many keshdhari youngsters in Bhai Sahib
    Jis area, but he always imagined himself as a
    Sikh. Manvir Singh UK liked the full Sikhi Saroop
    and decided not to cut his hair again.

10
  • He was inspired to adopt the full Sikhi Saroop by
    the story of Bhai Taru Singh Ji, who has enough
    love for his hair to use it as an identity. He
    was also inspired by two young Shri Guru Gobind
    Singh Ji shaheed Sahibzades, who gave their lives
    for Sikhism.
