Sikhism originated in the 15th century, in the Punjab region by Guru Nanak, who preached ideas that were radical for his age: he denounced Hinduism's oppressive caste system and Islam's gender discrimination, preaching that all people can commune with the divine equally, without the intervention of rituals or priests. The Sikh faith is a monotheistic religion, meaning Sikhs worship one God. The three core pillars of Sikhism are: vaṇḍ chakkō (sharing with others, helping those in need, as well as participating as part of a community), kirat karō (earning/making a living honestly, without exploitation or fraud, and speaking the truth at all times) and naam japna (meditating on God’s name to live a life of decency and humility).
The temporary distractions of the material world are seen as an illusion. The qualities of ego, anger, greed, attachment and lust are known as the Five Thieves that rob a person of their ability to realize their oneness with God and creation. Sikhs work to counteract the temptations of these qualities through the values of service, equality, and seeking justice for all. Sikhs also believe that one’s form on Earth is only a temporary vessel for the eternal soul. Thus, the death of the physical body is a natural part of the life cycle, while the soul remains. Death is not an end, but merely the progression of the soul on its journey toward God.
Nine more gurus succeeded Guru Nanak (Angad, Amar Das, Ram Das, Arjan, Har Gobind, Har Rai, Har Krishan, Tegh Bahadur, and Gobind Singh), and continued to spread his teachings across the world.
The last guru, Guru Gobind Singh, named the Sikh sacred text, the Guru Granth Sahib, to be the eternal Guru that would guide the Sikhs going forward. It consists of 1,430 Anks, or pages, and 6,000 Sabads, or line compositions, all are written in poetic verse and are aligning to the rhythmic forms of ancient north Indian classical music. At the core of the Guru Granth Sahib is a yearning for a world governed by divine justice, without oppression of any kind.
The final living guru, Gobind Singh, also established the Khalsa, or order of Sikh soldier-saints. They are recognizable by "The 5 k's," their physical articles of faith: Kesh (unshorn hair and beard), Kirpan (ceremonial sword), Kangha (comb), Kara (steel bracelet) and Kachha (drawers). The Dastar, or turban, is considered a spiritual crown, a token of remembrance of the Sikh principles.

Another macro shot consistent with this week's theme. These are the tokens for the Toronto transit system. They're small -- about the size of a dime (Canada or US). I like the design of these tokens. This "new" design was introduced in 2006 to make them harder to counterfeit.

Alex Monroe's Collection of silver tokens for the Fate, Hope & Charity Exhibition at the Foundling Museum,
At the Poldark Mine in Cornwall there was a machine that dispenses these tokens and they are based on Cornish pennies. You are supposed to use them in the machines but we liked one so much we ran off with it as a souvenir.
There were more boys invited I think but only these three showed up! They were slightly outnumbered but when it came to tea they did quite well most of the girls sat at the other table!
The back hall at the Token Lounge. Covered with bands stickers and spray paint/magic marker tags, it has always been a special place for me.

These are the tokens Rasmus made. They look like game pieces because the cone-shaped piece is part of the casting process. They will be cut off, leaving the diamond-shaped tokens.

In the spirit of celebrating the academic accomplishments of aspiring & hardworking students of HU, an “Honor Roll Ceremony” was held at 11 AM on Saturday, 17 November, 2012 at HU Euro Campus. The Honorable, Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board, Chaudhry Zaka Ashraf presided the ceremony as the Chief Guest. The Deans Honor Roll is a time-tested way to celebrate the achievements of young, talented and very hard-working students of HU.
Eighty-five (85) Meritorius Male & Female students from various disciplines, Pharmacy, Business, Fashion, Engineering, Computer Science, Media Studies, etc. were awarded the Certificate by the Honorable Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). He expressed that he was delighted to see state of the art infrastructure of Hajvery University. He further went on to add that Hajvery University is doing an excellent job in promoting innovation & quality education in Pakistan, and advised that the University and Pakistan Cricket Board institutionalize linkages that support and strengthen Players Education in Cricket, Physio, Personal grooming, and modern education. He appreciated Mr. Atif Mushtaq, Chairman Board of Governors, Hajvery University (HU) for his dedication to the cause of providing cutting-edge education in Pakistan.
The Honorable Chief Guest reminded the Students some of the lessons he has learnt over the period of his very successful tenure as the Chairman, Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd, noting that when he took the helm of affairs, the bank was in debt exceeding billions of rupees, whereas during his tenure, the bank recovered its losses and made a good profit. The President of Pakistan, in appreciation of his efforts in the radical transformation on the Zarai Taragiati Bank, has given him a new challenge, one which is also at the heart of Pakistan's 180 million people: Cricket. As the new Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), he told the audience that he has taken a similar approach to changing Pakistan Cricket Board and the fate of domestic as well as international cricket in Pakistan, by strengthening the Domestic Cricket in all the districts of Pakistan, and maintain a strong liason with International Cricket Councils to revive the International Cricket in Pakistan.
Hajvery University (HU), Director, Office of Affairs & Planning Mr. Fahd Sheikh delivered an inspiring thank you speech to the Honor Roll Students, and the Chief Guest. He spoke about the wealth of opportunities which are waiting to be discovered by the students, through their preservation and hardwork. He emphasized that today's world needs Innovators, Big Thinkers, and smart people to overcome the challenges. He went on to add that, as students there are countless distractions in the form of entertainment, which de track students from their goals & aspirations, which is perhaps the biggest dilemma & challenge to overcome. He concluded his remarks with the following words from Dr. Allama Iqbal:
Tu shaheen hai parvwaaz hai kaam tera
Tere saamne aasmaan aur bhi hain
Isi roz-o-shab main ulajh kar na rah ja
Ke tere zameen par makaan aur bhi hain

Ever since the trip into the Rochester Subway I have hoped to find one of these little gems. The other day my wife said "Open your hand." then she dropped this little token into my palm. It's about the size of a dime and after cleaning it a bit and looking closer I noticed all the fine detail.
