03 - Harjinder Kaur - Sikh Calligraphy

In this episode I am joined by Harjinder Kaur - @SikhCalligraphy - to discuss the beautiful art of calligraphy within the Sikh world.We consider early historical texts and handwritten saroops  Guru Granth Sahib; the wider spiritual experience of the art of likai ; the importance of larivar ; the impact of the introduction of printing presses; and the significance of calligraphy within other faiths.Harjinder Kaur shares her personal journey and experience, including the protocols and tools needed, as well as her role today in leading workshops for budding calligraphists. Every book we publish, every podcast we produce, and every resource we create exists for one purpose: to preserve stories, recover voices, and build a lasting library for the Panth. The Khalis Audio Library is, and always will be, a free resource for the Panth.
