Bandi Shorr is a magical time for Sikhs. It is when we come together as a community to remember our 6th Guru, Guru Hargobind Sahib Jee.

When I was young, I didn’t know what Bandi Shorr was. I did, however, know about Diwali and the story of Rama and Sita.

Diwali or the festival of light is a wonderful celebration for Hindus worldwide and it’s a reminder of the fight that we face in our lives of light over darkness. But it is very different from Sikhs and what they celebrate.
