“I am very impressed
with the level of knowledge,
confidence, and competence
of the speakers. It was
apparent that the curriculum
was thoughtful, researched
and realistic. Schools long for
consistency in their classrooms
and this program will allow for
this consistency from classroom
to classroom. I am excited to
promote pertinent topics and
discussions with our future
leaders. I would be confident
in sharing the significance of
impact that a program as such
can have on all those that are
privileged enough to interact
with this curriculum.”
— Gursharan Kaur Rahal,
Kingsburg, CA
“I loved this program. It
was a great eye-opener. These
are the things we think about
but fail to implement. I really
wish and hope we have more of
these kinds of programs in the
near future. I would definitely
recommend it to others. Impact
on me definitely put me in a
thinking mode. May Waheguru
Jee Bless you all for this
awesome SEVA.”
— Noni M. Bawa,
Sterling, VA
“I highly recommend your
program to all Sikh schools
who may be considering giving
more structure to their program.
This program empowers the
educators who may not be in
teaching industry in the USA by
giving the right tools to engage
the children at the same time
this program covers the multiple
facets of Sikh education that
must be addressed.”
— Gurmeet Kaur Bhatia,

Sojhi: Gurmat & Panjabi Education Resource
SikhRI offers a comprehensive Gurmat based curriculum called Sojhi. In the
Panjabi language ‘Sojhi’ means ‘insight’. The Curriculum is oriented around the
goal of developing insights to inspire a Gurū-centered life.
Gurmat and Panjabi schools across the globe are used as a means to impart
Sikh spirit, principles, values, and history to the youth. While volunteers at these
school do their best, is a gap between each school knowing what to teach and

thinking skills.
