Hardback. Condition: New. The ?abad doctrine, also often referred to as ?abad -guru (lit. Word-as-Guru), is a foundational pillar of Sikh philosophy, spiritual praxis, political theology and a key concept in Sikh scripture. This book examines the passage of the concept of ?abad from premodern scriptural sources (gurbani or the 'revealed' utterances of the Guru), to its entanglement in contemporary "wars of scholarship" resulting from the emergence of Sikhism within modern knowledge system.Contemporary discourse around ?abad split into two opposed camps which reduced ?abad either to the status of ordinary language, or leveraged the broadly Christian discourse on 'revelation' to underpin the exceptional status of ?abad. Rather than dismissing the rival perspectives (materiality vs revelation), we argue that it may be possible to rethink ?abad by seeing materiality as the condition for direct experience/revelation. To illustrate this alternative perspective, the book offers a postsecular interpretation of this important concept through transversal engagement with Deleuze's enigmatic reflections on language and self by tapping into the strong resonances between their respective ontologies of oneness. The book concludes with some reflections on how terms such as 'revelation', 'event' and 'resonance' can productively connect with the current lexicon of Sikh philosophy and theology.

First Edition
Paperback. Condition: New. 1st. Sikhism, one of the major spiritual-philosophical traditions of India, is often missing from discussions of cross-cultural philosophy. In this introduction, Arvind-Pal Singh Mandair, an internationally acknowledged expert in Sikh studies, provides the first rigorous engagement in the West with Sikh philosophy. Sensitive both to the historical formation of Sikh thought, and to the decolonial context in which he writes, Mandair examines some of the key concepts of Sikh philosophy and how they inform its vision of life. He asks what Sikh philosophical concepts tell us about the nature of reality, the relationship between mind/self/ego, and whether it is possible to discern broad contours of a Sikh logic, epistemology and ontology. Additionally, the book looks at how these concepts address broader themes such as the body, health and well-being, creation and cosmology, death and rebirth, the nature of action and intention, bioethics and, a theme that undergirds every chapter, spirituality. Each chapter concludes with a set of bullet points highlighting the key concepts discussed, a set of questions for further discussion and teachings points to aid discussion. Through this much-needed introduction we understand the place of Sikh Philosophy within modern Sikh studies and why the philosophical quest became marginalized in contemporary Sikh studies. Most importantly, we recognize the importance of looking beyond the well-trodden terrain of Hindu and Buddhist thinkers and involving Sikh philosophical thought in the emergent field of world philosophies.

Paperback. Condition: New. Illustrated. Sikhism's short but relatively eventful history provides a fascinating insight into the working of misunderstood and seemingly contradictory themes such as politics and religion, violence and mysticism, culture and spirituality, orality and textuality, public sphere versus private sphere, tradition and modernity. This book presents students with a careful analysis of these complex themes as they have manifested themselves in the historical evolution of the Sikh traditions and the encounter of Sikhs with modernity and the West, in the philosophical teachings of its founders and their interpretation by Sikh exegetes, and in Sikh ethical and intellectual responses to contemporary issues in an increasingly secular and pluralistic world. Sikhism: A Guide for the Perplexed serves as an ideal guide to Sikhism, and also for students of Asian studies, Sociology of Religion and World Religions.
