Seva (Community Service):
 
Service to ones fellow beings, a cornerstone of Sikhism

As students we all know how busy we all are with studies and jobs.  We hardly get time to do extra curricular activities.  We hardly get time to mingle within our own community and culture.   It is a humble attempt of Sikh Student Association to make this happen.  As you may have already notice under our events section that we hold various events that bring us closer to our culture and community.  However, there is yet another higher level through which we can mingle within our own community and culture.  And this higher level is SEWA.  Sewa is a cornerstone of Sikhism.  Anyone who is interested in doing Sewa is most welcomed.  We are planning to start Sewa in San Jose and Fremont Gurudrwara.     Please email Robbie Singh at ssa_sjsu@khalsa.com titled SEWA.

Everyone is encouraged to join us.  Just one hour of Seva every week.  
Here is a little Math of how much part of our life we will use to do one hour a week Sewa.  There are 168 hours in a week.  We do one hours a week Sewa. That is -

100 - {[(168 - 1)/168]x100} = 0.6 

That means we are only using 0.6 percent of our life to do Sewa.  

Few of us are planning to do Sewa on Wednesdays in San Jose Gurudwara.  We all will be wearing our SSA shirts therefore easy to spot.  Anyone and everyone is welcomed to join us in this noble deed.  Please email us back or simply show up at the San Jose Gurudwara on Wednesdays.
