Australian
Sikh Association Inc (ASA) is the largest registered body of Sikhs
in the Southern Hemisphere. With over two thousand members, and
growing rapidly, it manages 'The Sikh Centre' and serves the Sikh
Community in the Greater Western and North-West Regions of the Sydney
Metro Area.
The
Sikh Centre is the hub of activity all year round, with the Glenwood
Gurdwara (the Sikh place of worship, meditation and religious
congregation) within its premises. The members of the Sikh community
visit the Centre every week so that they can pray, meditate and
listen to the teachings and Hymns from Shri Guru Granth Sahib
(the Living Guru and the Sikh Holy Book) together with other fellow
Sikhs. The community also celebrates special religious events at
the Gurdwara, during most of these events, the attendance
exceeds over 5,000.
The
Association also runs programs such as the Weekend Punjabi Language
School and programs for Youth, Senior Citizens and Women.
The
Sikh Centre is tantamount to the Sikh expressions in the geo-political
aspects. Situated on a hilltop in the burgeoning Blacktown City,
the impressive infrastructure provides identity to the locals with
a North Indian background.
