Saturday, 17 November 2007 | ||||
Bhai Sahib Bhai Mohinder Singh Ji has been an ‘informal’ minister of the Sikh faith for over three decades and has regularly been in the Panj Piyare (the five representatives responsible for Amrit Sanchar – a ceremony akin to baptism for the Sikhs), on many occasions he has taken the role of ‘Jathedar’ of the Panj Piyare. He has brought many Sikhs of all ages to the path of spiritual discipline by getting Amrit Sanchar ceremonies conducted, regularly over the years. Often simply address as ‘Bhai Sahib Ji’, he is current chairman and spiritual successor of the GNNSJ, selected (in 1986) and appointed to this role by his predecessor, Bhai Sahib Bhai Norang Singh Ji. Bhai Sahib Ji is a Civil and Structural Engineer by profession who has worked on projects in the UK, Africa and India. Until 1989 he worked in Zambia for the National Housing Authority under the auspices of the British Government’s Overseas Development Administration providing expertise for the provision of low income housing, town-planning and infrastructure implementation. Whilst in Zambia he assisted the fledgling Sikh communities in different parts of Africa in the construction of Gurudwaras. Simultaneously, he made regular trips to the United Kingdom to participate in religious functions organized by Baba Ji and Bhai Sahib Bhai Norang Singh Ji. In 1989, he left Zambia in order to devote his life to full time service of the community under the personal supervision of Bhai Sahib Bhai Norang Singh Ji. In recognition of his many unique qualities and inner spiritual strength, he was chosen by the founder Saints to succeed to the chairmanship of this organization. Under Bhai Sahib Ji’s stewardship, GNNSJ has expanded its charitable work in the UK and abroad. At the dawn of the new millennium, in the wake of natural disasters as well as human-made calamities, considerable energy has been devoted to initiating and contributing towards interfaith activities within a world where efforts to improve mutual understanding and promote global harmony and peace have become imperative, more so than ever before. |
