Guruchanan Kaur talks about how her music background
made her fall in love with Sikhi.
Jasvir
Kaur Rababan is the host of 'Kaur Voices', a regular live talk show series.In this
first episode Jasvir has a jubilant conversation with Guruchanan Kaur who fell
in love with Sikhi through her musical background (both Jasvir and Guruchanan
are co-founders of kaurvoices.org, a platform for empowering Sikh women).
Guruchanan was amazed when she found that there is a religion based off music,
that our Gurus themselves invented musical instruments, and that our teachings
are organized in raags, showing how central music is in Sikhi.
The open conversation went on to address cultural and
religious issues surrounding sexuality and the how the equality of genders
taught by our Gurus is practiced today. Guruchanan Kaur, with her light
heartedness, sheds light on Sikh history and the ethic of sacrificing and
fighting to uphold the honor of women.
