December holds a lot of weight in Sikh history.
It’s a month of Shaheedi Dihara, a time that reminds us of sacrifice, selflessness, and Chardi Kala (High Spirits).
It’s not a month of mourning, but a month of pride.
The sacrifices made by the Sahibzaade and countless Sikhs weren’t rooted in sadness or defeat, but in strength, clarity, and standing firm for what’s right, no matter the cost.
Sharing these portraits of Nihang Singhs (Guru ke laadle) from my time in India as a reminder of that spirit.
December isn’t about feeling heavy — it’s about remembering who we come from, and carrying that energy forward.
