The international conference attempting to reconcile South Asians
across diverse ethnic boundaries was started by a local Singapore
Pastor Pritam Singh Sandhu. Crossing strong political and religious
boundaries, the South Asian Global Convention SAGC 2009 gathered groups
like Indians, Pakistanis, Nepalis, Sri Lankans and Bangladeshis. The
event, which concluded last week, was nothing short of a ‘miracle’ and
‘God’s hand’, said founder and coordinator Pastor Pritam Singh, citing
remarks by attendants. It started when Pastor Pritam Singh
Sandhu, 45, was undergoing his theological Master’s degree training at
Regent College in Vancouver, Canada. In 2002, he had a vision of God
‘handpicking’ South Asians and placing them in other countries in the
diaspora to ‘touch’ them there so He can mobilise them for missions
wherever they are planted."
Diwali, also known as Deepavali, is a 'festival of lights' celebrated especially by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains. This festival is spread over three to four days and is one of the most anticipated times of celebration. Homes are lit with hundreds of deeya (clay oil lamps) during the season, to signify victory of good over evil. The day of Diwali is the highlight of this celebratory mood. Families get together to start the day with oil baths, then exchange gifts and sweets, followed by the most exciting event of the year - family fire works. Fireworks begin before the crack of dawn and go well into the day. No amount of description is sufficient to capture all the excitement and celebrations associated with the Diwali festival. You have to be there to experience it.
