Ik Oankaar Sri Vahiguru ji ki Fateh. Sri Akaal Ji Sahai. Sri Bhagauti ji Sahai.
Vahiguru ji ka Khalsa Vahiguru ji ki Fateh.
My name is Jaswinder Singh Sehmbi. From a young age, I was deeply inspired to pursue spiritual knowledge because of Baba Inderjit Singh ji. His influence set me on a lifelong journey of learning, seva, and connection to Sikhi.
Between 1991 and 1996, I was blessed with the sangat of Baba Inderjit Singh ji at Scarborough Gurdwara, where my spiritual grounding truly deepened. Alongside this, I cultivated my love for traditional music, learning Tabla and Pakhawaj under the guidance of renowned teachers: Ustaad Giani Gurcharan Singh ji (Singapore wale), Ustaad Mohan Singh ji (Dahaley), and Ustaad Jasmeet Singh ji Chana.
Academically, I pursued my degree at the University of Toronto, majoring in Biology with minors in Economics, Sociology, and Religious Studies. Today, I work in the finance field. Also part of my formal education, I am continuing my spiritual journey with the same passion that inspired me as a child.
Over the years, I have studied Gurbani Santhya from Singh Sahib Giani Pritpal Singh ji (Head Granthi Gurduara Dukh Nawaran Sahib P 9) and Ustaad Kharak Singh ji (a student of Giani Gurwinder Singh ji Nangli). I also trained in Shastar Vidya with Bhai Daya Singh ji (student of Baba Soorta Singh ji Rishikesh, Buddha Dal). My deepest spiritual learning, however, has been in Brahm Vidya, which I continue to study under the guidance of Sant Giani Sher Singh ji (Ambala).
It was through the direction of Sant Giani Sher Singh ji that I undertook the seva of writing English translations of the Sri Gurpartap Sooraj Prakash Granth, presenting it in a way that connects with the modern reader. This ongoing effort has grown into what I call the Gurupurshotam Project — a lifelong commitment to sharing the timeless wisdom of Gurbani and Sikh history with seekers around the world.
Jaswinder Singh.
