[NEW] Devastating Heart Attack At 38...The Guru Was Waiting

From the dancefloor to wearing full Bana 24/7; Dharmveer Singh's journey to Sikhi is one of the most honest, inspiring and relatable stories we've ever heard on this podcast. Born and bred in Edinburgh, Scotland, Dharmveer grew up in a typical Punjabi household, Gurdwara on Sundays, meat on the table, and clubs on the weekends. But something was pulling him in a different direction. A cousin's invitation to a Rehras Sahib class, a moment in a nightclub mirror, and a heart attack at just 38 years old all became turning points on a path that would lead him to Amrit, full Bana, and a life devoted to Waheguru. This is a conversation about faith, identity, family pressure, and what it really means to live as a Gursikh in today's world, told with complete honesty, warmth, and a healthy dose of Scottish humour.
