Words from those who have begun.
I had carried wrong pronunciation for over twenty years. After one session of Santhia, I cried with joy — the words finally came right.
My daughter looks forward to her weekly class. The patience, the warmth, the way the meaning is explained — she actually wants to learn now.
I never thought I would read Sukhmani Sahib aloud at my age. Six months in, I open the Pothi every morning without fear.
