Moved by the ceremony at the Sikh gurdwara that we visited in Toronto, one member of the group wanted to fully engage in the experience and bow before the Sikh holy book as other students did, but felt unable to. Each day, members of the commune prepare a free meal for all those who worship at the gurdwara, the Sikh temple.
