Kes: From a Kaur's Perspective Gaining Self Confidence ~ The Beauty in Me

Kes is a taboo topic in our Punjabi/ Sikh community today. In this podcast, Baani Kaur, 22, joins us and discusses issues, ideas, and experiences. We cover (1) The Importance of Kes (2) How our Kaurs can uplift each other (3) Empowering Kaurs and Singhs to keep Guru’s roop (4) Address double standards with Kes in our society.

Before listening to the podcast, identify the term, Self-worth which is your extension of Love for Waheguru. You should feel the Naam in every part. When you pull a strand of your hair and it hurts, the root is alive. There is energy present. It comes from within. Embody your internal identity, Gratitude which is an honor and gift. Altering the natural state. Sacrifices from the panth. Natural. Acceptance of Hukam. The light within you. These are all lenses to start from to identify the energy of Guru’s roop.
