The Spirit of the Brave

"Glory to the noble souls, who on their earthly way undertake the courageous struggle. With the broom of sacred wisdom, they sweep away the passivity of apathy and ignorance." GURU GOBIND SINGH (1666-1708), Tenth Spiritual Guardian, Father of the Khaalsa Panth

“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favour freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning.”
FREDERICK DOUGLAS (1817-1895)

“Courage is the best gift of all. Courage stands before everything. It is what preserves our liberty, safety, life and our homes and parents, our country and children. Courage comprises all things: a man with courage has every blessing.” TITUS MACCIUS PLAUTUS (254-184 BC)


"O Great Shiva, please be so beneficient as to enable me to pursue righteousness without hesitation or fear;
May I fight and struggle with moral goodness and conviction, and be victorious in my objective. May my mind be constantly infused and spurred by your positive thoughts and driven to spread your good. And, when it comes for this life to come to an end, may it be a death in the thick of mighty action."
SIKH NATIONAL ANTHEM,
written by GURU GOBIND SINGH (1666-1708), Father of the Sikh Nation, Tenth Spiritual Guardian - profound poet, warrior, saint and inspirational nation-builder
