Book excerpt: To commemorate the 400th Parkash (birth) Anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the author has taken the opportunity to revise his original book"Guru Tegh Bahadur - The True Story" (second edition) is an epic kind of a book. On reading the manuscript, we realized that it not only uncovered some startling new facts debunking some of the 'traditional' understanding of not only his life story, but also generally reflected the kind of 'lived' Sikhi thought that we wished to portray, and for youth to read. In short it reflects Sikhism as a new emerging global life-philosophy structured around:1. The twin pillars of Miri-Piri (Political-Theological. Politics with a moral conscience for the betterment of all and active service-orientated spiritual development for the self.)2. Tri-doctrine of Naam Japna (constant remembrance of Creator-being), Kirt-karni (working for a living) & Wand-shekena (sharing, sewa) The story is about of a simple but divinely inspired man who became the 9th Master of the Sikhs - Guru Tegh Bahadur. He proved a worthy swordsman in battle and was renamed from Tyag Mall to Tegh Bahadur (Champion Swordman) in his teens. He spent over 30 years preaching the universal truths and lofty ideals of Sikhism raising grave concerns from the Muslim clergy (as his preaching was detrimental to the subjugation of the masses which was necessary to maintain the Moghul empire of Aurangzeb) and, also the Brahmin, because his views opposed the centuries old caste-based traditions and beliefs of the masses which threatened their comfortable position as the highest privileged class.The story climaxes with his imprisonment, torture, and beheading, in Delhi and the brave planning and execution of the plan by Delhi Sikhs to retrieve his remains for a dignified cremation.Some research-based views about all the other nine Gurus in an early chapter makes it a more wholesome read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book encapsulates the exceptionally eventful and vibrant life of the guru that will provoke thought and debate even in today’s times. Guru Gobind Singh – Founder of the Khalsa; saint; warrior par excellence; poignant poet; philosopher; soulful human being – was the illustrious Tenth Guru of the Sikhs. This extensively researched book goes beyond the established events that broadly include the untimely assassination of Guru Teg Bahadur; Guru Gobind Singh’s coronation; the battles of Bhangani and Nadaun; his stay in Paonta and Anandpur; and the historic creation of the Khalsa. The book talks about other events that sought to widely establish the Khalsa including the battle of Nirmohgarh; the siege and evacuation of Anandpur; the battles of Chamkaur, Khidrana and Muktsar; his Zafarnama to Aurangzeb and subsequent meeting with Bahadur Shah Zafar in Agra. Most importantly, it provides some unknown facts about the anointment of the holy book of the Sikhs – the Guru Granth Sahib as the eternal guiding light. Guru Gobind Singh’s prowess as a warrior of immense distinction is well-recorded, besides his understanding of military strategy and execution; the book brings to light his love for literature, scriptures and languages, his philosophical, judicious and humane thought, and is a tribute to the great saint and seeks to outline the historical life, times and events of Guru Gobind Singh in intricate details.

Download or read book The Guru Granth Sahib written by Pashaura Singh and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-09-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines three closely related questions in the process of canon formation in the Sikh tradition: how the text of the Adi Granth came into being, the meaning of gurbani, and how the Adi Granth became the Guru Granth Sahib. The censure of scholarly research on the Adi Granth was closely related to the complex political situation of Punjab and brought the whole issue of academic freedom into sharper focus. This book addresses some of these issues from an academic perspective. The Adi Granth, the sacred scripture of the Sikhs, means ‘first religious book’ (from the word ‘adi’ which means ‘first’ and ‘granth’ which means ‘religious book’). Sikhs normally refer to the Adi Granth as the Guru Granth Sahib to indicate a confession of faith in the scripture as Guru. The contents of the Adi Granth are commonly known as bani (utterance) or gurbani (the utterance of the Guru). The transcendental origin (or ontological status) of the hymns of the Adi Granth is termed dhur ki bani (utterance from the beginning). This particular understanding of revelation is based upon the doctrine of the sabad, or divine word, defined by Guru Nanak and the succeeding Gurus. This book also explores the revelation of the bani and its verbal expression, devotional music in the Sikh tradition, the role of the scripture in Sikh ceremonies, and the hymns of Guru Nanak and Guru Arjan.
