Working and Learning Together

There is a long history of Sikhs and non-Sikhs working and learning together for a common cause.  Here are three lists of famous people that come to mind.  The first will be people of early Sikh history (1469-1708).  The second will be a list of authors whose inspired verses are included in the Sikh compilation and spiritual authority, Siri Guru Granth Sahib.  The third will be a list of friends and associates of Yogi Bhajan who collaborated in various ways.  In reality, these lists could be much longer.  These are the people and important relationships I am aware of.
