Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing that intellectual movements, such as deconstruction, postsecular theory, and political theology, have different implications for cultures and societies that live with the debilitating effects of past imperialisms, Arvind Mandair unsettles the politics of knowledge construction in which the category of "religion" continues to be central. Through a case study of Sikhism, he launches an extended critique of religion as a cultural universal. At the same time, he presents a portrait of how certain aspects of Sikh tradition were reinvented as "religion" during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. India's imperial elite subtly recast Sikh tradition as a sui generis religion, which robbed its teachings of their political force. In turn, Sikhs began to define themselves as a "nation" and a "world religion" that was separate from, but parallel to, the rise of the Indian state and global Hinduism. Rather than investigate these processes in isolation from Europe, Mandair shifts the focus closer to the political history of ideas, thereby recovering part of Europe's repressed colonial memory. Mandair rethinks the intersection of religion and the secular in discourses such as history of religions, postcolonial theory, and recent continental philosophy. Though seemingly unconnected, these discourses are shown to be linked to a philosophy of "generalized translation" that emerged as a key conceptual matrix in the colonial encounter between India and the West. In this riveting study, Mandair demonstrates how this philosophy of translation continues to influence the repetitions of religion and identity politics in the lives of South Asians, and the way the academy, state, and media have analyzed such phenomena.

Download or read book Sikhism written by Nikky-Guninder Kaur Singh and published by Infobase Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the worlds youngest religions, Sikhism was founded about 500 years ago in northern India. The Sikhs believe in the Ultimate Reality as a formless force that is above all things and yet present in them at the same time. They reject all distinctions based on social class and race and emphasize the importance of service to both community and family. In the 21st century, Sikhism faces new challenges and a geographical reach spanning the globe. In India, where Manmohan Singh became the first minority prime minister in 2004, Sikhs are still working to gain greater political independence. In the West, the faith is attempting to adapt to a new culture while also sharing its universal teachings. "Sikhism, Third Edition" describes the basic tenets of Sikhism, tells the engaging story of its growth in India, examines the recent move toward greater political independence within the Indian nation, the effects of Hindu nationalism on the Sikh community, and issues of cultural adaptation, persecution, and subsequent education now taking place in the West.

This book was released on 2023-06-05 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps as a religious teacher preaching the fundamental, learnings, basic beliefs and understanding of the sikh faith. It is a simple and primary book that teaches our young generation and beginners about The Sikh Religion. All One Must Know About The Sikh Faith Every generation is the trustee of its culture and heritage for future generations who become its custodians. Teachings of a faith of love, peace, Oneness of God and universal brotherhood founded by Guru Nanak, and carried forward by his nine followers, are the most valuable heritage of the Sikhs. Identity and unshaken faith of the present generation of Sikhs is, perhaps, the last link between the ones who value and respect its heritage and take pride in being born a Sikh and the new crop that seem to be getting lost in search of it. Despite the orthodoxy and rigidity that holds Sikhism back; Sikhs have excelled in all aspects of human endeavour and are acknowledged as uniquely courageous people working towards the upliftment of humanity and their contribution is extraordinary considering their small number. The youth in India and abroad are ignorant of the glorious past of the Sikh faith, what it stands for and what it can teach the world. For example, most of them may not be aware of the importance of the five Takhats, Amrit- vela, Daswandh, Chaali Mukte and Nishan Sahib et al in Sikh history. The knowledgeable must help the new generations understand all such aspects in correct historical perspective. The book in your hands is a humble effort in that direction.
