The Middle East Times spoke with Toufic Laba Sarkis, a Community leader and public speaker who shares his beliefs that there is great benefit for those who work tirelessly for the benefit of human beings and humanity by implementing values and motivation believing in the importance of the quality of our relationships and connectedness with others regardless of religion or race.
The Middle East Times watched the YouTube video of a sensational speech delivered by Toufic Laba Sarkis on Australia Day and Republic Day of India on 26 January 2014 in the state of Haryana during the annual celebrations of Dera Sasha Sauda (The True Deal) headed by His Holiness Sant Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan (Guru Ji) who has been since 1990 aiming at serving humanity regardless of their religion.
The principles of Dera Sacha Sauda are motivated by kindness and compassion for humans to live a life of dignity. The most important vision of Dera Sacha Sauda is to call every human being to follow the path that leads to God. Dera Sacha Sauda was originally established by Shah Mastana Ji Maharaj (1948- I960) who proclaimed ‘Dhan Dhan Satguru Tera Hi Asra’, which translates to only God is worth praising and we are solely dependent on Him.
