Singh,

You’ll only know if you attend. You can see the agenda and I assure you that there is no ‘wine.’ Explore for yourself and then you be the judge. Jakara is open to all.

Hello,

I’ve heard some poor reviews of past Jakara conferences with regard to Gurmat and “Sikh spirit.” Some past attendees have felt the conferences had a lot of “Wine and Dine” / Punjabi culture focus and less Sikh culture focus. Is this true? If so will it be fixed this time?

thanks.
