Many newcomers to Sikhism can relate to the history of this new faith through the imagery created by Bhai sahib ji. “Every artist dips his brush in his own soul and paints his own nature into his pictures”, Devender Singh repeats the words of Henry Ward Beecher on his website. A self-made man, Devender Singh has stated, “If we were to follow Guru Nanak’s one line teaching - Kirt karo, naam japo, wand ke khao (work, pray and share) - life would be a utopian dream.”
