“TSR is not only a weekend to reconnect on a spiritual level but also on a social level, all while having fun. It makes me fall in love with Sikhi again.”

-BKG

“Last year's Toronto Sikh Retreat was my first experience, and to be honest the idea of a religious retreat was intimidating to me as I didn't really know where I stood in terms of Sikhi and my path; in fact I wasn't sure I was on a path or wanted to be on one. I have to say TSR changed my life and was one of the most amazing experiences I have had. I not only got a better idea of what sikhi meant to me, but made some amazing life long friends along the way. In the end I had nothing to lose and everything to gain...”

Here is more feedback from past attendees about TSR:

Toronto Sikh Retreat was a great opportunity to meet the Canadian sangat. Through conversations, laughter, and keertan, I discovered the role of Sikhi in their lives not only as individuals but as a sangat. It inspired me to reflect and grow as a Sikh. We talked about gurbani, history, music, politics, diversity, and snow-it was great! - Ravneet Kaur, USA

It was truly an enjoyable experience last night sitting in the presence of the Guru with all of you. I cannot begin to emphasize how important this venture is and how the retreat is instrumental in the propagating the wisdom and essence of Guru shabad. I knew the moment my son had sat down after bowing to the Guru that he felt this energy.....he was in a place of comfort....he was in the abode of positivity, love, warmth.....Rehras Sahib, was being recited with such love and "rus".....I commend you all - Onkar Singh, Brantford, ON

2009 Toronto Sikh Retreat was an incredible experience; there was a great amount of mutual respect amongst participants. There was no pressure to take part in the activities however the activities and the workshops were so engaging that I would not have missed them. It was a positive environment for older age groups to come together to explore their spirituality. I have no words to describe the open mic night, which incidentally left me laughing for days! - Jaspreet Kaur, Brampton, ON

Don't miss the 2010 Toronto Sikh Retreat - everyone's experience is personal and rejuvenating. Don't miss out!

Within a few short days, TSR provides much needed comfort and food for one's mind, soul and stomach :) - Jagbir Kaur, Mississauga, ON

The TSR is a great annual retreat! I enjoy attending every year with the interesting themes that are planned and delivered very well. I enjoy the company of the sangat, meeting new people and extending our networks through sikhi and sharing the common pyaar. I would recommend this retreat to anyone who is looking to retreat for a weekend, and to also explore their sikhi and open their mind to new thoughts and ideas that are shared and sparked through experiences and perspectives of the variety of individuals that participate every year. - Harman Singh, Etobicoke
