person within the Houston Sikh community; I simply asked him to help this person in as many ways as possible. Within a few days, miracles started happening from the Sikh community. Very quickly, offers started pouring in for money donations, community people and families arrived to meet and visit with her and take care of her, and also help came from several medical doctors (including a neurologist, internist, and others) to offer not only all medical help but also go far beyond in all respects. Within a couple of days, due to their help, she was admitted to a high class intensive care rehabilitation center cum hospital where, after many tests, her problems have been diagnosed, her proper treatment has started, some money has been raised, and a stream of people call and visit her often and are doing their very best to put her back on her feet. I am really delighted and amazed at the outpouring of unconditional support and care by the Sikh community to offer its very best with compassion. I salute them for this culture of "love thy neighbor” in practice and not in talk only. I wonder how many other communities do that!
