Sikhism is a religion of great beauty and simplicity. Launched originally as a revision to Hindu principals and beliefs that were not felt to be humanistic and against one-ness (eg. casteism), its followers later became the defendants of the Hindu faith under attack from the Mughals of Agra and Delhi. It was the sixth of ten Sikh Gurus, Guru Hargobind who militarised the Sikhs after his own father (Guru Arjun Dev) was martyred defending the faith. Under Guru Gobind Singh, Sikhism was declared a distinct religion from Hinduism – the Khalsa was born. Amrit, or the Sikh baptism was created (occurring in 1699), and the five Ks of Sikhism the signs of a Amritdari (or baptised) Sikh. Thus was born the newest formal religion in the world. One of the most beautiful elements in Sikhism has a lot of similarity with Hinduism, Ik Onkar – One God – a core belief of Sikhism. It is derived from the Sanskrit ekomkara which is a sound combining ek (one) and omkar (the name of the Aum syllable). Aum is often known as Om in the West. Together this refers to ‘the One Aum"; that is, the single cosmic consciousness. Though in 1984 there was much pain between Hinduism and Sikhism, sporn out of political insensitivity and persecution of Sikhs post assassination of Indian PM Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards, there was a longstanding tradition of bilateral closeness between these religions in the Punjab. During the period where the Sikh Army defended Punjab and North India, the eldest son in each Punjabi Hindu family was made a Sikh, and fought in the Guru’s army to defend the land, and the faiths. Many Hindu families in the Punjab visit and have visited Sikh places of worship, and either regard the Ten Gurus reverently or have some respect for the religion. This is dedicated to my Sikh friends, predominantly in WA; for bringing me into their lives and keenly teaching me about their religion, culture and traditions; it was through them that I was inspired to learn more about my Punjabi heritage, and taught myself the language. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh. *This and all shots at Harmandir Sahib were taken without flash, and with full respect, to show the beauty of the Punjab, the peoples of the Punjab and the beauty of the Sikh religion. Sona means ‘Golden’, or in colloquial use, ‘beautiful’ in the Punjabi language.

Located in the U.S. Supreme Court building, which was built in the early 1930s after the Court had met in many different places. This building was the first permanent place for them to meet since they had first convened. The oval staircase is an attraction in the building but unfortunately, tourists are not allowed to ascend it.

Lil Formers is a parody comic strip created, written, drawn, inked and coloured by me, Matt Moylan. It started off poking fun at all aspects of Hasbro’s Transformers mega-property (hence the ‘Formers’ in the title). Strips #1 to 100 are all TF-centric, but now with Strip #101 onward, I’m expanding the scope of things to cover all geeky, pop culture properties. The Lil Formers web comic can be found at http://www.lilformers.com

Some photographers take reality… and impose the domination of their own thought and spirit. Others come before reality more tenderly and a photograph to them is an instrument of love and revelation. Ansel Adams

_Blue Heron…Thank you, Sacred Waterbird, / for sending reflections to me; / The mirrors of the quest for life, / The words that live inside of me. Show me how relationships work, / With my path woven within the whole, / The lessons of kinship with all life, / Reflecting my spirit’s eternal goal. Jamie Sams_ The medicine of Blue Heron is self-reflection, and asks if you are willing to dive into the watery depths of your own feelings and discover the role of your spiritual essence? Heron is now calling you to delve deeper, to know yourself, and to trust your path. Like the Phoenix, who rises from its own ashes, Heron emerges from the unseen worlds of spirit into a new balanced sense-of-self in order to ebrace its potential again and again. / The magnificence of your human spirit lies waiting for the joy of discovery, if you are courageous enough to follow the Waterbird throughout the journey. Heron reminds you that every traveler on life’s journey is a messenger, and that every destination is the beginning of a new life cycle on the Medicine Wheel. Reflections Photograph taken at Wind River Ranch, as is, while speaking to my sister/friend Judi Taylor ~ love ya lots sis ;) xoxox ♥
