A poem by Gurutej Singh Khalsa on the Occasion of the 66th Birthday of
Siri Singh Sahib, Yogi Bhajan
The touch of the master is what brought us here,
Through Maya’s illusion, through doubt and fear,
We have followed him through this long, dark night,
To awaken from the dream and…

The kundalini yoga community in Cuba is happy to share this painting of the Siri Singh Sahib, Yogi Bhajan with the international Sangat. The creative force and love that inspired this artwork came after meeting the Teacher in one of his videos about human excellence. The Cuban people had never seen Yogi Bhajan before and…

We had plumbed the lines and dug the troughs,
and laid the rebar, so it would be strong enough,
The conduits were in and the forms were set,
but when the concrete came, it was much too wet.
We had to shovel and nurse it all day,
We had to push so the forms…

Where the Land lies green on fertile ground,
At the bend of the river, Goindwal is found,
In the humble village lived three Gurus;
Amar Das and Ram Das, and Arjan too
At the bottom of the eighty-four steps
The pilgrims go to take their dips;
To wash away their karmas and pains
It…

Since then, my team and I have consciously dedicated consistent efforts toward conceiving, creating and offering affordable artwork that uplifts…

Silk flowers-
No fragrance,
No reverence.
Beautiful, beautiful.
They look real.
In color,
In makeup,
Absolutely clear.
They are the flowers,
That we know.
Made of silk.

In 1980, before I became a Sikh, I did a painting I called “Happy Hour”. In the painting my Kundalini yoga teacher, Sat Nam Singh, was sitting, clothed, on a bench at a bus stop surrounded by several figures wearing only clown make-up and accessories. Though the figures were obviously nude, all significant anatomical parts…

In 1983, Guru Hans Singh, a student of the Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan, found a uniquely designed necklace in, of all places, a French architectural book. When he presented this to the Siri Singh Sahib Ji, he was overjoyed. He declared that Tantric Masters have worn this sacred, geometrically designed necklace for thousands of…

Although I was formally trained in art, the greatest lesson, and the one that has most influenced my work, was the lesson I learned from my spiritual teacher, Yogi Bhajan. He taught me to be unattached to the work, to the process and to the idea of an identity as an artist. Since…

The Guru guides my hand. I decided long ago that society's view of the Artist would not work for me; eccentric, flighty, unreliable, hopefully not but possibly starving. Not me, not in this life. The Artist is in the fiber of the being, unavoidable. It is a perception, the way you see and understand and process…
