Artika Bakshi shares a moving tale of love and redemption that feels like a blessing in one’s life.

It’s in the langar house of the gurdwara that she spends most of her time.

The concept of langar is unique, where cooked food is served to whoever comes to the gurdwara

Langar works through donations and volunteering.

The volunteers, with faith, carrying their own burdens, come together to serve, finding peace for that brief moment, before returning to their lives.
