Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ...In todays racially-charged landscape, the customs of Sikhs, particularly the customary turban for males, have been misunderstood, and Sikh men have been victims of hate crimes after being mistaken for terrorists... ...In many ways, this book lifts the veil of the unknown regarding Sikhism. Anyone who would like to learn more about this historic culture, but is unwilling to dig through mounds of research and articles will find this book of photography highly educational and enriching. The US Review of Books From the outside, Sikhism and the Sikh population, has been diluted into a pool along other religions that come from the same geographical region. Sikhism, in fact, is quite unique in its own right. Religion, culture, and mores have features that are shared with none. Equality and humanity are some of these features that separate this particular faith, and protecting these beliefs have had turbulent times in history. Anandpur was an integral part of this protection of beliefs. Anandpur was first settled by the ninth teacher of the Sikhs, Guru Tegh Bahadur. He settled away from other Sikh centres at the time, due to corruption within the religion. He raised his son, the tenth teacher of the Sikhs, Guru Gobind Singh, whom raised his sons here as well. It was the tenth teacher he made the most significant contributions in Anandpur. While it was Guru Tegh Bahadur that sparked the inspiration, after being beheaded for not converting religions, the stage was set for the tenth teacher to lead Sikhs into an identity that was all their own. This was not pertaining only in their religious belief, but communicating to the world symbolically with the designation of the 5 Ks Sikhs wear to identify themselves throughout society. I am putting forth a tour of the great historical location of Anandpur through my photos and brief history of Anandpur, that I hope people will enjoy, and hopefully inspires more education into a very deep history in the relatively short existence of this faith. The English translations of names are gender neutral translations, in an attempt to support some of the equality issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heirs of the Land book represents the History of the Sikhs in a true spirit before the Mankind; and emboldens and encourage especially the Heirs of the Great Punjab, the Sikhs, to study their history, its people, and places those that had been ignored not only by the Indian and Pakistan States sponsored so-called Historians, but also, who are trying hard to dilute the Sikh Revolution of the SatGuru Nnak Sahib. Therefore, the author shall die in peace if this work inspires the historians to look at Harappa Civilisation and the Sikh-Revolution in its true inceptions. SatGuru Granth Sahib, the Living Guru of the Sikhs in the Globe proclaimed that the soul dwells in the body and imbue with SatGuru’s Shabad (the Ambrosial Nectar).

Download or read book The Road to Empire written by Satnam Singh and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late seventeenth century to the late eighteenth century, the Sikh community transformed from a relatively insignificant religious minority to an elevated position of kingship and empire. Under the leadership of Guru Gobind Singh (1661–1708), Sikh elites and peasants began to align themselves with discourses of power and authority, and within a few decades Khalsa Sikh warriors conquered some of the wealthiest provinces of the Mughal and Afghan empires. In this book, Satnam Singh argues that the Sikhs’ increasing self-assertion was not simply a reaction to Mughal persecution but also a result of an active program initiated by the Guru to pursue larger visions of scholarship, conquest, and political sovereignty. Using a vast trove of understudied court literature, Singh shows how Sikhs grappled with Indo-Islamic traditions to forge their own unique ideas of governance and kingship with the aim to establish an independent Sikh polity. The Road to Empire offers an impressive intellectual history of the early modern Sikh world.
