Produktbeschreibung
Jujhar Singh was always running away from home when he was young. Now he is serving an 18-year sentence for conspiracy to commit murder for a high-profile. He no longer has the choice to go home or run away again, however much he wants to. The hit unfolded in a normally quiet British Columbia resort town, Kelowna, BC. Jujhar Singh waited years for his trial, all the while struggling with serious injuries received while on the street. Incarcerated, hands tied, helpless as one loved one after another falls and is added to the statistics . . . he realizes he can do something. Inspired by a nurse at Royal Colombian Hospital who showed him kindness and love despite Jujhar Singh having made fun of her as a kid, he picked up a pen. The words within the covers of this book are thought-provoking, heart-rattling, and real. Jujhar Singh reveals his own truth, and shows us that our reality, too, is created by the choices we make, the people we follow, and the loyalties we decide upon. Jujhar Singh shows great courage in allowing himself to be seen, to be vulnerable. He talks honestly about the choices he made when he was young, the conditions that influenced those choices, and the consequences that followed. He also shows that he has had the courage to learn, and from new knowledge comes new faith-in humanity, in the spirit, and in the love that has always been there for us, no matter the choices we make and illusions we follow. If you identify as a human being or spiritual being, guess what? This book is so for you.
Autorenporträt
Born and raised in a city once heralded as the gang capital of Canada - Abbotsford, British Columbia - Jujhar Singh survived multiple attempts on his life (including a suicide attempt following the tragic death of his fiancé) before his eventual arrest and incarceration. Jujhar Singh is currently serving an 18-year sentence in a federal institution in Canada.His love of writing, reading and questioning the status quo started at a young age, but came to full realization after incarceration. He quickly devoured knowledge from historians, educators and philosophers, and found himself reconnecting with a religion he had been running from for a large part of his adult life - Sikhism. Reflecting on the choices he had made from a low level of awareness, Jujhar Singh began writing Trenches to Freedom as a way to share his newly acquired awareness.Jujhar Singh credits a higher power and energy present within Gurbani (the Sikh scriptures - literally "the speech of wisdom") as the reason he has managed to stay alive. At present, Jujhar Singh is actively engaged with like-minded beings, with the intention of being part of a creative, and inspiring collective, to bring a positive uplift to the community as a whole.
