He was arguably the first turbaned Sikh to serve in the US Army – as a drill sergeant during World War I. When asked how he got inducted despite a beard, Bhagat Singh Thind (1892-1967) had quipped: “I suppose they figured I could kill just as many Germans with it as I could without it.”

He was “honourably discharged” after the war ended in late 1918. But it was another battle that defined his life, one that he fought for over a decade. On February 19, 1923, he was denied American citizenship by the US Supreme Court. The ruling, which determined that Thind, “a high-caste Hindu of full Indian blood,” was not a “white person”, led to the revocation of his naturalisation as an American citizen and shut the immigration door on other South Asians too. His “Aryan origin” contention cut no ice with the judiciary, which accorded precedence to Caucasian lineage.

The 95th anniversary of the landmark verdict in the ‘The United States vs Bhagat Singh Thind’ case was commemorated earlier this week by the South Asian Bar Association, Washington DC (SABA-DC), which organised a panel discussion in the US capital. The speakers included Sim J Singh, National Advocacy Manager, Sikh Coalition; Lakshmi Sridaran, Director of National Policy and Advocacy, South Asian Americans Leading Together (SAALT); and Kritika Agarwal, Associate Editor, Publications, American Historical Association. The panellists underlined the case’s impact on the South Asian Americans’ struggle for their rights.

A native of Taragarh Talawa village in Amritsar district, Thind graduated from the holy city’s Khalsa College. At the age of 20, he arrived in the US in 1913 for higher studies (a year later, his brother Jagat Singh set sail for Canada on the Komagata Maru, but had to return to India after being refused entry). He worked in the lumber mills of the Pacific Northwest and got a doctoral degree in philosophy from the University of California at Berkeley. “He was granted American citizenship in the state of Washington, only to have it quickly cancelled by the Immigration and Naturalisation Service. Thind then applied for citizenship in Oregon in 1919 and received it the following year. The immigration authorities appealed against it and the case went to the Supreme Court,” says Philip Deslippe, a doctoral student in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
“The apex court ruled unanimously against him. The decision is usually understood as a matter of racial prejudice,” he adds. Thind’s association with the pro-Independence Ghadar movement was apparently among the factors that influenced the judgment. After protracted litigation, he finally emerged victorious, becoming a US national once and for all in 1936. A decade later, the Luce-Celler Act reversed the 1923 order, opening a historic window for Indian immigrants.

Refusing to rest on his laurels, Thind made a name for himself as a teacher of spirituality and a wellness guru, holding lecture tours across America and propagating Sant Mat (path of saints). Fondly called Doctorji by his students, he perceived Sikhism as “the future religion of mankind”.
In 1963, Thind returned to India for the first time after leaving its shores half a century ago. He and his wife Vivian met then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and then President Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, even as he delivered lectures on metaphysics in several universities.

He passed away on September 15, 1967, in Los Angeles at the age of 74. His son, David Bhagat Thind, is the architect of bhagatsinghthind.com, a website dedicated to the never-say-die Sikh-American. The diaspora can’t afford to forget his inspiring example, especially in these times where white supremacism is rearing its head again.

I was very much impressed when Harpal Singh, the PTI of Akal Academy, Bharyal Lahri entered the playground, touching his fingers on the ground and rubbing it on his forehead.

It instantly gave me an impression of his dedication and how important he considered the 45 minutes he spends on the field to get the best out of his students.

I saw him there with a whistle hanging around his neck instructing students in different sports specially athletics. After his training session, I got an opportunity to share his insight.

He shared a memory with me, it was of one of his student athletes perhaps an extraordinary one, whom he had observed in the inter academy athletics tournament.

His name was Sahil, a student of Akal Academy Bharyal Lahri who found his passion in Running and Athletics. Village folks used to look at him bemused when they saw him running breathlessly day and night . At that moment, he realized that if Sahil was given a professional training, a star would be born in the dust of villages.

One and a half year later ,an opportunity opened for this youngster, Sahil decided to give a try at the world’s largest Athletic Talent Hunt held by National Yuva Coop Society (NYCS) in partnership with GAIL to build Team India for the Summer Olympics of 2020 & 2024 called NYCS GAIL Raftaar – 2

Over a lakh participants between age 11 to 17 were filtered. Sahil by astounded his peers and left everyone spellbound by his sheer Cheetah like speed. He won the Gold Medal in the 100 mtrs race in the All India National Level Trials.

A 45 minute of intense training everyday and making a National record seemed like a dream come true. For the WORLD, he might be the HERO but it was only possible because of this man who saw the potential in him and nurtured his talent.

After a long conversation , Harpal had to go because he had an urgent meeting in the principal’s office. I walked down the corridor where the notice board caught my attention and what I saw left me spellbound.

Harpal did not have only one student who had won GOLD but there were plenty more. Including Sahil, his students won a total of 17 medals at district levels out of which 9 were gold, 2 were silver and 6 were silver.

I gave a salute to him standing right there in front of the notice board.

Stars are not born, They are Inspired and Motivated by Great teachers. Coaches are aware of how to ignite passion and motivate people.

“If Justin Trudeau, like the rest of the western world, thinks India is equal to Punjab, why are we shocked, surprised or hassled?

This is the one community that has stepped out into the world & claimed it for its own. It has borne the India flag proudly & made itself seamless with that identity.

This is one community that keeps rising from its own ashes. It suffers the horrors of partition and then rebuilds itself without any victimhood, staking claim not just to self-rehabilitation but to prosperity. This is the community that faces a planned political pogrom and yet doesn’t give in to long-term hatred. This is the community that had a clear, dangerous separatist movement & yet somehow managed to distance itself from the “terrorist” tag.

This is the community, especially its Sikh subset, which is often at the forefront of rescue, relief & other humanitarian activities across the globe at times of natural & man made disasters & crises.

Members of this community fight bravely in our armies, or even in armies they are enlisted into on behalf of the reigning government, they battle from the front lines & lay down their lives with unquestioning loyalty & courage.

This is the community that gave us the green revolution, the ubiquitous salwar kameez, the karva chauth craze, the sinful aloo paraatha & the mad pre wedding sangeet. This is the community that made Karan Johar a millionaire & gave Honey Singh and his ilk an actual career.

This is an assertive, extroverted, cheerful, in your face community that demands that the world sit up & take notice. It dresses loud, sings & dances loud, laughs out loud, eats & drinks loud. This community has a version of popular culture that permeates our film industry, our festivals, our sense of friends & familial bonding, our idea of generous sharing.

Yes we may sit back like highbrow snobs & say, please, there’s much more to India than Punjab. But hey. This is the community that chooses to play on the front foot every single time and rise beyond every adversity with a booming laugh & a narry a care joie de vivre.

I am not Punjabi. Much of my sensibility is not Punjabi. But if today the entire western world thinks that India is “Punjabi By Nature” I am happy to grin & celebrate with them. Balle bloody balle. Good on you guys. More Burrraah to you.”

It’s easy to be mistaken by this picture of a gentle, stooped, grandfatherly 95 year-old. He was in fact one of the most feared and dangerous men in British India. So feared was he by the British that, shackled in irons, he was held for 16 years in near solitary confinement 1000kms off the shore of India for fear of the revolution he tried to spark.

This is Sohan Singh Bhakna, founder of the revolutionary Ghadr Party. When India joined WW1, every young Punjabi man was vigorously encouraged to join the Indian Army; British officials, Indian nobility, Indian district bureaucrats, even the Indian National Congress and Mahatma Gandhi joined forces to promote recruitment. Opposing that consensus was a vociferous, violent energetic group, operating from North America called the Ghadrs, or revolutionaries.

Sohan Singh Bhakna became active in the early nationalist movement before he joined the small pioneering stream of men who moved out of Punjab to the Pacific Northwest in the early 1900s where he worked in lumber mills. America wasn’t colonising India but there was no lack of racism and discrimination toward the ‘Hindoo’ labourers and Bhakna rapidly joined the early Indian labour movement.

He founded the Ghadr party with other North American Indians who agitated for the overthrow British colonial authority in India by means of an armed revolution. The Ghadrs viewed the Congress-led Independence movement as soft and unambitious so adopted a harder stance with their principal strategy to entice Indian soldiers into armed revolt against the British taking particular advantage of the vulnerability of the First World War.

Their revolutionary plans included smuggling arms to the passengers of the Komagatu Maru on their return to India, making overtures to the German Embassy in the US, pumping out revolutionary messages to Indian soldiers via their prolific pamphleteering. Their most seditious and dangerous plot was to coordinate violent armed revolutionary activity with Indian soldiers in SE Asia. Alarmed, the British promptly arrested Sohan Singh as he tried to enter India in 1914 and tried for conspiracy.

Found guilty, he was sentenced to death. A sentence later commuted to life imprisonment in The Andaman Islands, 1000kms off the shore of India. There Sohan Singh settled into a period of revolt and activism with repeated hunger strikes to improve the conditions for his fellow prisoners. Both in the Andamans and back in India where he was imprisoned until 1930 he carried out hunger strikes for Sikh prisoner’s religious rights, the rights of lower caste Indian prisoners and in support of Bhagat Singh.

By the outbreak of the Second world war, Sohan Singh had been released 10 years and was an active and fearsome political voice for the Communist Party. War brought new rules, and the Indian Government arrested and interred the now 70-year-old Sohan Singh for 3 more years in an Indian jail lest he revive his violent tendencies during a time of wartime vulnerability.

He lived another 20 years after Indian Independence and the Partition, a constant and prolific voice in early Indian politics. He died in 1968, ending a phenomenal life of 98 years, in his home district of Amritsar.

आनंदपुर में सिक्ख संगत ने अपने अपने डेरों में लंगर लगाए हुए थे| गुरू जी ने जब इनकी शोभा सुनी कि गुरु की नगरी में आने वाला कोई भी रोटी से भूखा नहीं रहता तो एक दिन रात के समय गुरु जी आप एक गरीब सिक्ख का वेष धारण करके इनकी परीक्षा लेने चल पड़े|

एक सिक्ख के डेरे पर जाकर आपने कहा हमें जल्दी भोजन दो, भूख लगी है| उसने कहा कुछ देर बैठ जाओ. भोजन तैयार हो रहा है, मिल जाएगा उससे हटकर आप जी दूसरे सिख के डेरे गए और वहाँ भी भोजन माँगा परन्तु उसने कहा दाल भाजी तैयार हो रही है, फिर आकर भोजन छक लेना फिर इसके पश्चात् गुरु जी तीसरे व चौथे सिख के डेरे भोजन के लिए गए तो एक ने कहा ”आनन्द साहिब” का पाठ तथा अरदास करके लंगर बटेगा दूसरे ने कहा सारी संगत एकत्रित हो जाए, तो पंक्ति लगाकर लंगर बाँटा जाएगा,

आप बैठ जाओ इसके पश्चात् आप जी भाई नन्द लाल जी के डेरे भोजन के लिए गए आप ने वहाँ जाकर भी भोजन माँगा भाई के पास जो कुछ तैयार था गुरु जी के आगे लाकर रख दिया गुरु जी छक कर बहुत प्रसन्न हुए और अपने महलों में आ गए दूसरे दिन जब सिखों के लंगर की बातें चली तो गुरु जी ने अपनी रात की सारी वार्ता सुनाकर बताया की हमे केवल भाई नन्द लाल के लंगर से ही भोजन मिला है बाकी सबने कोई ना कोई बात करके हमें लंगर नहीं छकाया जो सिख भूखे को शीघ्र ही भोजन देने का यत्न करता है, वही सिख हमें प्यारा है भूखे को रोटी-पानी देने के लिए कोई समय नहीं विचारना चाहिए जिस अन्न के दाने से प्रण बच जाते है, उसका पुण्य फल सभी दानों से अधिक है

सतिगुरु जी की तरफ से अन्न दान महिमा सुनकर सबने प्रण कर लिया कि आगे से किसी को भूखा नहीं भेजा जाएगा

एक बार गुरु अर्जुन देव जी एक गांव में गए , गांव का हर व्यक्ति गुरु जी को कहने लगा के “गुरु महाराज आज आप मेरे ही घर भोजन करोगे”। गुरु अर्जुन देव जी ने सभी से निम्रता भरी आवाज़ में कहा के में किसी को भी नाराज़ नहीं करांगा मेरा इस गांव में पूरा एक महीने के लिए निवास रहेगा। गांव के मुखिया ने गांव के हर एक घर की एक लिस्ट तैयार कर ली।

सी तरह मुखिया की बनाई लिस्ट के मुताबिक गुरु जी रोज़ाना गांव के घर में लंगर छकने जाते 15 -20 दिन बीत चुके थे। फिर एक दिन गांव के मुखिया ने एक लड़के को आवाज़ लगाते हुए अपने पास बुलाया और कहा

मुखिया लड़के (समन ) से : सुनो बेटा समन

समन : जी मुखिया जी

मुखिया : गुरु साहिब को लंगर छकाने की आपकी बारी है इसीलिए आप अपने पिता जी को बता दो और खाने का जो सामान चाहिए वो आज ही खरीद लो

समन : जी मुखिया जी में अभी पिता जी को बता देता हूं

यह कहकर समन उसी समय घर की तरफ़ चल पड़ा समन के पिता का नाम मूसा था

समन अपने पिता मूसा से : पिता जी

मूसा : हां पुत्र

समन : मुझे रास्ते में आज मुखिया जी मिले थे उन्होंने मुझसे कहा के कल गुरु जी हमारे यहां लंगर खाने आएंगे

मूसा : पुत्र यह तो बहुत ही ख़ुशी की बात है

समन : वो तो ठीक है पिता जी , कल गुरु जी के साथ 30 -40 साध -संगत भी होगी और हमारे पास इतना पैसा नहीं है के हम इतने सारे लंगर का प्रबंध कर सकें

मूसा (समन का पिता) : पुत्र यह बात तो तेरी ठीक है हमारे घर की हालत इतनी अच्छी नहीं है के हम इतने सारे लोगों के लिए लंगर की अवस्था कर सकें।

समन : पर पिता जी गुरु अर्जुन देव जी भगवान का रूप हैं यदि गुरु जी हमारे घर से बगैर लंगर खाए चले गए तो यह तो पाप होगा।

में गुरु जी को लंगर छकाने के लिए कुछ भी कर सकता हूं

मूसा : बेटा यदि गांव का साहूकार हमें राशन उधार दे तो बात बन सकती है

समन :पिता जी वो बनिया बिल्कुल भी उधार नहीं करता फिर भी इतना सारा राशन तो बो बिल्कुल ही नहीं देगा , परन्तु एक काम हो सकता है यदि आज रात हम दोनों उस साहूकार की दूकान में समान चोरी कर ले तो

मूसा : पर बेटा यह तो चोरी होगी और चोरी का लंगर बनाकर गुरु जी को खिलाना क्या पाप नहीं होगा ?

समन : नहीं पिता जी , हम केवल उतना समान ही चोरी करेंगे जितना की हमें जरूरत है।

मूसा : ठीक है पुत्र , पर हम उतना राशन ही चोरी करेंगे जितने की हमें जरूरत है।

समन : ठीक है पिता जी ,

इसी तरह दोनों बाप और बेटा रात के समय साहूकार की दूकान में चोरी करने के लिए चले गए। उन्होंने योजना के मुताबिक सबसे पहले दूकान की दीवार को तोड़ा और दूकान के अंदर चले गए जरूरत के अनुसार उन्होंने राशन चोरी कर लिया और जैसे ही वो दोनों राशन लेकर वापिस जाने लगे सबसे पहले मूसा बाहर निकला और जैसे ही समन राशन लेकर दूकान से बाहर निकलने लगा तभी उसका शरीर दीवार में फ़स गया और समन से काफ़ी कोशिशों के बाद भी बाहर नहीं निकला जा रहा था।

थोड़ी ही देर गाँव वाले जाग गए सभी को पता चल गया था के साहूकार की दूकान में चोर घुस आए हैं। सभी लोग लाठियां लेकर दूकान की तरफ़ बढ़ने लगे

मूसा ने अपने पुत्र समन को बाहर निकालने की बहुत कोशिश की परन्तु समन दीवार में बुरी तरह फ़स गया था

मूसा : पुत्र अब क्या होगा ? सभी गांव वाले हमारी तरफ़ आ रहे हैं और उन्हें पता चल जाएगा के हमने गुरु जी के लंगर के लिए चोरी की है और हमारी बहुत बदनामी होगी।

समन : नहीं पिता जी गांव वालों को कुछ पता नहीं चलेगा के चोरी किसने की है और हमारी बदनामी भी नहीं होगी।

मूसा : परन्तु पुत्र जी , तुम दीवार में बुरी तरह फ़स गए हो तुम इससे बाहर कैसे आयोगे ?

समन : पिता जी जल्दी घर जाओ और घर से तलवार लेकर आयो और तलवार से मेरा सिर काट कर घर ले जाना सिर के बिना किसी को कुछ पता नहीं चलेगा के चोर कौन था ?

मूसा : नहीं -नहीं पुत्र में ऐसा नहीं कर सकता हूं में अपने ही जवान पुत्र की हत्या कैसे कर सकता हूँ ?

समन : पिता जी , यह बात सोचने की नहीं है बल्कि मुसीबत से बाहर निकलने की है जल्दी करो तलवार से मेरा सिर काट कर घर ले जाओ।

पुत्र के ना मानने से आखिर मूसा घर जाकर तलवार ले आया और पाने पुत्र का सिर काट कर घर ले गया।

जब सारे गांव वाले दूकान के पास पहुंचे तो वो बिना सिर वाला शरीर देखकर डर गए और सभी अपने -अपने घर भाग गए यह देखते ही के सभी गांव वाले अपने -अपने घर भाग गए हैं मूसा ने अपने पुत्र का शरीर उठाया और उसे घर ले गया।

और मूसा सारी रात अपने बेटे की लाश के पास बैठा रोता रहा।

अगली सुबह मूसा और उसके बेटे ने जो राशन चोरी किया था उसने उसका लंगर तैयार कर लिया और किसी को भी पता नहीं चलने दिया।

गुरु अर्जुन देव जी और संगते मूसा के घर आए और मूसा ने गुरु जी और संगतों के लिए लंगर छकाना शुरू कर दिया।

गुरु अर्जुन देव जी (Guru Arjan Dev): मुसेया आज तुम्हारा लड़का नजर नहीं आ रहा वो कहाँ पर है ?

मूसा : गुरु जी , मूसा अंदर सो रहा है।

गुरू जी : क्या उसको नहीं पता था के आज हम उनके घर लंगर छकने आ रहे हैं ?

मूसा : दरअसल , गुरु जी आज उसकी तबियत ठीक नहीं है , आपके आने का तो उसको पहले से ही पता था।

“परन्तु गुरु जी तो सबके जानी जान थे ”

गुरु जी : मूसा एक बार अपने पुत्र को आवाज़ तो लगाओ

मूसा : पर गुरु जी समन बहुत ज्यादा बीमार है इसीलिए वो बाहर नहीं आएगा।

गुरु जी : अच्छा ठीक है यदि तुम उसे नहीं बुलाते हो तो में ही उसे बुला लेता हूं

बेटा समन बाहर आओ।

जब गुरु जी ने समन को फिर से आवाज़ लगाई “बेटा समन बाहर आ जाओ ”

तो इसके बाद हुआ ऐसा के मरा हुआ समन उठकर बाहर आ गया

अपने समन पुत्र को जिन्दा बाहर आता देखते ही मूसा की आंखें फटी की फटी रह गई

मूसा गुरु जी के चरणों में जा गिरा

जब गुरु जी ने सारी संगत को कल रात वाली बात बताई तो यह सुनकर सब हैरान रह गए और सभी कहने लगे के धन हे ! मूसा जिसने गुरु जी के परसादे (लंगर) के लिए अपने बेटे का सिर काट दिया और धन है ! समन जिसने गुरु जी के लंगर के लिए अपना सिर कटवा लिया …
