Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The narrative of Sikhism and the lives of its ten beloved Gurus have a significant place in the tapestry of human history, resonating with vitality and depth. The book titled "Sikhism and the Lives of the Ten Gurus" explores the journey of Sikhism, tracing its roots from modest beginnings to a series of significant events that have had a great impact on this relatively young but highly powerful religion. As the author, I am confronted with the task of effectively communicating the fundamental principles of Sikhism, specifically the profound aesthetic and significance inherent in the Shabads and teachings found in the Guru Granth Sahib. The core principles of these teachings frequently appear to lose their potency throughout the process of translation from their original format. This sensation is strongly experienced when an individual fully engages in the tranquil atmosphere of a Gurudwara, where they have the opportunity to listen to the harmonious recitations of a Ragi or the profound readings delivered by a Granthi. The Siri Guru Granth Sahib is distinguished by its notable lack of words promoting hatred or proselytising, making it a significant source of wisdom and advice. The objective of this ideology is neither to proselytise nor to guarantee material benefits for unquestioning compliance. Moreover, it fosters an exploration of one's own identity and comprehension, compelling individuals to embody the essence of Sikhism as disciples engaged in an unending pursuit of wisdom under the guidance of the Gurus' sagacity. This scriptural passage elucidates the concept of human unity beyond divisions based on gender, social standing, or physical well-being, promoting a lifestyle characterised by integrity, mindfulness of the divine, and altruistic acts of service. This literary work transcends just a mere historical narrative, as it serves as a profound exploration of the lives of 10 remarkable individuals. Through their teachings and acts, these individuals played a pivotal role in shaping a faith that continues to exemplify principles of tolerance, equality, and an unwavering commitment to the quest for truth. As we progress through the many chapters, we observe the development of Sikhism from its establishment by Guru Nanak to its consolidation as a unique and vibrant religious tradition under the leadership of Guru Gobind Singh. I am privileged to partake in this shared experience, which surpasses a mere retelling of historical events and digs into the essence of a belief system that instructs us to live without the obligation of justifying the unjustifiable. Instead, it encourages us to adopt a course of action characterised by tranquilly, comprehension, and a sense of interconnectedness among all individuals. This book aims to provide readers with an insight into the profound knowledge of the Gurus and the enduring significance of their teachings in the context of our modern society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 92 percent (First), University of Lincoln, 24 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: "Peters is ... the father of the post-modern corporation." Why do people follow Gurus?One explanation can be the search for meaning in life. They offer fulfilment and promise a peaceful and happy life . Herein the emphasis lies on management Gurus. Can we transfer the above to a management context? In management we follow rules, rituals and symbols. Every morning we are called to the holy mass, worshipping the corporate identity manual and confessing our companies inability to keep the promise of short delivery times to our customer . Our consultant will teach us by showing us how we can improve quality, reduce wastage and improve happiness in our jobs. Tom Peters with his work on "excellent companies" lay the foundation of the work presented. Utilizing postmodernist techniques, the author challenges the teachings of the so called management gurus. Decentering, deconstructing and reflecting back on itself the author critically re-evaluates his personal guru. As a result a new perception of the circle commonly known as management gurus materializes and the insights gained are to be used as a tool in modern management. Are modern managers mislead in their thinking by following the wrong ideas?
