3. Video of Bhagat
Puran Singh
In 1990 the ASP decided that
some of Bhagat Puran Singh’s work should be captured on video so that
other Sikh audiences could see his service and a permanent record could be
kept. This project was successfully completed and the video is available
for a $10 donation. This has now become important since Bhagat Puran Singh
subsequently passed away. (Contact Dr. JS Soin for copies)

6. Support of Khalsa-Net
Since 1991, there has been a loose network
of Sikhs communicating on computer networks via an electronic
bulletin-board called the “Khalsa Net”. In 1994, with help from the
ASP, further expansion and refinement of this network took place. A
dedicated “node” for users has been established. A data-base on
Sikhism is being provided for those who subscribe.. Currently this network
has members from USA, Canada, UK, Norway, Singapore and several other
countries.
