This monograph deals with the variant metaphysical aspects of Sikh Religion. Metaphysics is a science of the Real and it undertakes a search for Truth or Reality. This monograph begins with the Oneness of Ultimate, Reality with its Attributive Aspect and proceeds to its experience through faith and expression through symbolism. The most significant metaphysical issues viz., human existence, problem of evil, immortality of soul and man’s voyage from transmigration to emancipation are vividly explained. The Sikh metaphysics is not an abstract unity but it integrates the spiritual and temporal aspects. The spiritual unity and social vision of the Gurus is explicit throughout the Holy Scripture and its culmination is evident in the based on the ontological principal of One God.
