Early life

Dr. Sarabjeet Singh attributes his understanding of Nishkam Sewa to the teachings and values imparted by his grandparents and parents. Growing up in a family rooted in Sikh traditions, he was influenced by principles of humility (nimarta), compassion, and service from an early age.

Over time, Singh realised that his spiritual fulfilment and inner growth were deeply connected to active service rather than ritualistic practices.

Philosophy of Nishkam Sewa

Nishkam Sewa (Punjabi: ਨਿਸ਼ਕਾਮ ਸੇਵਾ) emphasises performing service without expectation of reward, recognition, or personal benefit. According to Singh, the practice represents a direct connection with the divine.

He defines his philosophy of service as:

  • Service without desire for recognition
  • Practice rooted in humility and absence of ego
  • Welfare of humanity, animals, and the environment
  • A spiritual discipline leading to inner peace and liberation

Singh believes that meditation and spirituality are realised through consistent acts of service rather than isolated spiritual exercises.

Social work and initiatives

Food and ration distribution

Singh is actively involved in daily food distribution programmes in Delhi, particularly at Bangla Sahib Gurudwara. Through voluntary service, he contributes to feeding hundreds of people each day, supporting the Sikh tradition of Langar and addressing food insecurity among marginalised populations.

Education and healthcare

He has organised educational support initiatives for underprivileged children, including the distribution of books, stationery, and learning materials. His healthcare-related efforts include medical check-up camps, health awareness programmes, and assistance for those lacking access to basic medical services.

Promoting unity and harmony

Singh’s work often brings together individuals from diverse religious and social backgrounds. His initiatives emphasise inter-community harmony, mutual respect, and collective responsibility toward social welfare.

Impact and recognition

Through years of consistent selfless service, Dr. Sarabjeet Singh has emerged as an inspirational figure in Delhi and surrounding regions. Supporters and volunteers regard him as a living embodiment of Sikh values, particularly Nishkam Sewa, and credit his efforts with improving access to food, education, and healthcare for numerous families.
