Serving God through serving humanity: Photo of Sikh man feeding a disabled Muslim man

 
 
A disabled Muslim gentlemen who has no arms, was walking through a park in Bradford during the annual Sikh festival celebration of Vaisakhi. The Sikh community had set up a stall and distributing Langar (food cooked by the Sikh community kitchen) to the public. The Muslim man who was unable to eat himself, was offered to be fed by the Sikh volunteer. A true glimpse of the love of Guru Nanak Dev Ji and humanity.

ਸਭ ਮਹਿ ਜੋਤਿ ਜੋਤਿ ਹੈ ਸੋਇ ॥
Amongst all is the Light, which is the Divine Light of the Creator.

ਤਿਸ ਦੈ ਚਾਨਣਿ ਸਭ ਮਹਿ ਚਾਨਣੁ ਹੋਇ ॥
All living beings shine and radiate light through the Divine Light.

ਗੁਰ ਸਾਖੀ ਜੋਤਿ ਪਰਗਟੁ ਹੋਇ ॥
But knowledge of the Divine Light shining within all living beings comes through the Wisdom of the Guru.

ਜੋ ਤਿਸੁ ਭਾਵੈ ਸੁ ਆਰਤੀ ਹੋਇ ॥੩॥
The true worship of the All-Pervading Divine Light is to be pleased with the Divine Will. ||3||
(Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji - Guru Nanak Dev Ji - Ang 12)
