I truly enjoyed this discussion with @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social, as we delve into why, at least when it comes to the study of human flourishing, science and religion can and should work together. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

Let's unite behind #YesOnSB403 and continue our journey towards a more equitable future for all.

The California Coalition for Caste Equity is hunger striking for the freedom of our caste-oppressed people. We're counting on @GavinNewsom to publicly lend his voice in support of #SB403. Thank you, Governor Newsom, for your history of standing up for vulnerable communities.

Hear Navinder's story of bravery as he served on the rescue teams during 9/11, and why he believes we must learn to see the hero in everyone we meet: bit.ly/RNS-911

Navinder Singh Nijher, then a general surgery resident, was one of the first to serve victims at Ground Zero - but within 24 hours, was treated like one of the enemies.

The highest form of love entails complete selflessness. Spread kindness to others by practicing it each day, even in small ways.

Simran Jeet Singh @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social · 22/08/2023

I admire her so much for that and for continuing to live into her values, including making hard decisions to forego opportunities to do what's right. Now, Tina has a new book on Becoming a Sustainable Runner that she's co-written with Zoe Rom.

My good friend Tina was a professional runner who represented Great Britain and Northern Ireland in a world championship. She courageously stepped away from that life to care for herself.

One of my favorite aspects of facilitating workshops is the opportunity to connect with people while engaging in conversations that truly matter. There's something powerful about being in a space where we can share our experiences, learn from one another, and find strength in our shared humanity.

I’m so grateful to Hena for her confidence in me and for the opportunity to write in this genre. It was so much fun. I’m excited to share the book when it comes out this spring, and I’m excited to write more stories for this age group.

Simran Jeet Singh @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social · 04/08/2023

Then, she shared the list of writers contributing to the volume — and that’s when I lost it. It’s a who’s who of South Asian writers, including Sayantani DasGupta, Reem Faruqi, Veera Hiranandani, Supriya Kelkar, Rajani LaRocca, Maulik Pancholy, Mitali Perkins, Aisha Saeed, and N.H. Senzai.

I was pleasantly surprised when Hena Khan invited me to write an essay for her new collection of short stories. She’s one of the premiere middle grade writers in the country.

What a gift to join forces with two writers I love, Kwame Alexander and Javier Zamora. We talked about personal storytelling, memoir writing, and so much more. All here in this episode of the Aspen Institute’s Aspen Ignites: youtu.be/03UCuiN2f2k

In reflecting on the past year, I'm filled with a sense of gratitude. Thank you to the multitude of people who have played a part in bringing this dream to life: family, friends, sangat, colleagues, teachers, editors, agents, mentors, and so many more.

Simran Jeet Singh @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social · 19/07/2023

Today marks one of the most remarkable days in my life. Just one year ago, I achieved a lifelong dream — publishing a book that helped share Sikh stories and wisdom with the world.

Simran Jeet Singh @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social · 17/07/2023

I'm grateful for each of your kind words.

Simran Jeet Singh @simranjeetsingh.bsky.social · 17/07/2023

Had an amazing time catching up with my talented friends, Javier Zamora and Kwame Alexander, at the Aspen Ideas Festival last week. I can't recommend their latest books enough! Javier's "Solito" and Kwame's "Why Fathers Cry at Night" are both must-reads.
