Sikh Philosophy and Religion

This book strikes an intimate note in the contemporary mind as it relates the message to the evolved modern consciousness, and does not pull the reader backwards in medieval times. It answers some of its deepest questions, born of modern philosophy and theology, and provides the weary mind a feeling of tranquility in the lotus-feet of the Sikh Gurus. With simplicity and brevity the author brings out the magic and music of their universal spirit. The Gurus had to face bigotry at its extreme. This book presents their solutions, i.e. ‘active love, devoid of haumey’, to the problem of bigotry that is most disturbing to the modern people. The author relates the ideas of the holy Gurus to the ideas of the western thinkers with as such honesty and spontaneity as he relates them to the ancient visionaries of India. He shows that the power of the Gurus had grown out of their definition of truth - truth is truth if it is beautiful and good too.
