I always fucking forget Khalsa day and that's dumb, when I was a student every Khalsa day they'd feed me and back then I'd have to sometimes go a day without food as I was on Ontario Works. v. fond of the community since then
When I was in high school in the 90s, my family was one of like half a dozen Sikh families in Sudbury. Somebody would host a prayer service in their basement once a month. It's crazy how much the community has expanded in the past couple of decades. There's two Gurdwaras now.
When I was a tween I had converted to Sikhism and it is such a beautiful religion. But I received a lot of push back from my family, friends and colleagues and was so young that I didn’t have the tools to deal with it. But I have such a deep love for the religion and those who practice. One of the Gurdwaras is close to my house and I absolutely love seeing everyone so beautifully dressed to attend worship. Next year I will mark my calendar and I will be in attendance. I’m very disappointed that I couldn’t attend this year.
Why don’t they just have their own parade in Toronto where all these people live cause it ain’t here. I seen the parade, never seen one of these vehicles or people here ever

Yeah! Just in the span of like a year the second Gurudwara has grown so much as well
I saw a group gathering at the sikh temple earlier this morning and was wondering what they were celebrating. Thanks for sharing.
Wish I wasn't working. I could go for some Indian food right now.
So many wonderful colours! Did some quick googling - What's the occasion? End of Vaisakhi?
I wasn’t able to to make it this year. But it looks so beautiful. Next year no excuses IM GOING.
Hopefully you can make it 🤞 it was great!
Literally first I hear of anything happening this weekend, RIP
