As a boy growing up in South Texas, Simran Jeet Singh and his brothers confronted racism daily: at school, in their neighborhood, playing sports, and later in college and beyond. Despite the prejudice and hate he faced, this self-described “turban-wearing, brown-skinned, beard-loving Sikh” refused to give in to negativity. Instead, Singh delved deep into the Sikh teachings that he grew up with and embraced the lessons to seek the good in every person and situation and to find positive ways to direct his energy. These Sikh tenets of love and service to others have empowered him to forge a life of connection and a commitment to justice that have made him a national figure in the areas of equity, inclusion, and social justice.              The Light We Give lays out how we can learn to integrate ethical living to achieve personal happiness and a happier life. It speaks to those who are inspired to take on positive change but don’t know where to begin. To those who crave the chance to be empathetic but are afraid of looking vulnerable. To those who seek the courage to confront hatred with love and compassion. Singh reaches beyond his comfort zone to practice this deeper form of living and explores how everyone can learn the insights and skills that have kept him engaged and led him to commit to activism without becoming consumed by anger, self-pity, or burnout.   Part memoir, part spiritual journey, The Light We Give is a transformative book of hope that shows how each of us can turn away from fear and uncertainty and move toward renewal and positive change. 538 $a Requires OverDrive Listen (file size: N/A KB) or OverDrive app (file size: 265774 KB). 650 17 $a Nonfiction. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a New Age. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Religion & Spirituality. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Self-Improvement. $2 OverDrive 655 7 $a Electronic books. $2 local 700 1 $a Singh, Simran Jeet. 856 40 $u http://link.overdrive.com/?websiteID=251&titleID=7454579 $z Click to download here. 856 4 $3 Image $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/1191-1/%7B6D500EC6-C9C0-4A12-AD09-676F4A715008%7DIMG100.JPG $z Large cover image 856 4 $3 Thumbnail $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/1191-1/%7B6D500EC6-C9C0-4A12-AD09-676F4A715008%7DIMG200.JPG $z Thumbnail cover image 856 40 $3 Click for more information $u https://api.overdrive.com/v1/collections/v1L1B0wAAAA2Z/products/6d500ec6-c9c0-4a12-ad09-676f4a715008 $x 1370 941 $a 1 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20221007010104.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E29C6BC613BA11ED9C55A27642ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
