Sava Lakh defines the true essence of a Sikh’s pioneering spirit. The Tenth Master, Guru Gobind Singh, infused the warrior’s resilience in a suppressed community enshrining a moral code that inspires and enthralls. Sava Lakh is a beautiful thought, a sublime philosophy affirming, “One man can make a difference.”

Sava Lakh also serves as an acronym for the essentials of the Sikh creed:

Shastar Vidya: Every Sikh should be trained in the art of self defense

Langar: All men are born equal

Charity (Dasvandh) – an all-encompassing virtue

Khalsa Maryada: Kirt Karo (Dignity of labour)

Naam Japo (Meditation and Introspection)

Horsemanship: Engenders leadership qualities and connects us to our glorious past

With the active involvement of the Akal College Council Gursagar Mastuana Sahib and ace horseman Baba Maghar Singh a training programme in traditional horsemanship and martial arts has been initiated at Mastuana Sahib.

In today’s competitive world, Sava Lakh Foundation exhorts the younger generation to live up to the ideals of the Gurus. The endeavour is to instill pride and enthusiasm in the village youth – a youth morbidly impressed by the wrong influences, drawn to drugs and wallowing in mediocrity.

Our villages have produced brilliance in the past and we aspire to goad our youth to that road of excellence.
