MARK OF EXCELLENCE

Becoming Guru-Centered

The Sikh Research Institute offers a variety of theme-oriented sessions for emerging leaders in the community - high school and college students and young professionals. Each event seeks to facilitate learning while enhancing personal development and growth for each participant.

Mark of Excellence is one such program, offering a series of lectures, presentations and workshops. Participants attend personal and community development sessions that seek to foster the Sikh values based on Gurmat traditions: Sikh scripture, history, and discipline. Other principles of universal significance are also incorporated that do not disturb the harmony of the Sikh faith.
