Exploring Some Sikh Themes

About the Book The themes examined in this volume were selected sporadically, either to meet the demands of some academic and semi-academic bodies or to fulfil my own obligations as Chief Editor of the Journal of Sikh Studies at Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. These are, therefore, not like the chapters of a book in which each preceding chapter prepares the ground for the succeeding chapter. All the themes discussed in this volume have an independent entity in each case; they are connected organically with neither the previous nor the following themes. The common string that binds them together is their intimate relation with Sikh studies. For me, therefore, each theme proved to be an exercise in independent exploration. It will be a matter of great satisfaction to me if my treatment of the themes can activate the latent spirit of exploration even among a fraction of my esteemed readers.
