Sinossi
Excerpt from The Gurdwara Reform Movement and the Sikh Awakening
Daily prayer oi the Sikhs along with the ten Gurus. All religious and social ceremonies of the Sikhs, from birth to death, must be per formed in'the presence of the Holy Book and often within the precincts of the Gurdwaras. Wherever the Sikhs have gone, they have carried with them a passionate longing for the freedom of their Gurdwaras, and, it is no exaggeration to say that, the control of the Golden Temple and other principal places of worship by the Panth as a whole has always been looked upon as a measure of their religious, social and'even political liberties.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history and principles of the Sikh faith, with a specific focus on the Akali movement and the struggle for control of Gurdwaras (Sikh temples). The author, an eyewitness to key events, provides a gripping account of the movement's origins, its core values, and the challenges faced by the Sikh community in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of British colonial rule in India, the narrative explores the Sikhs' unique approach to faith, community, and political organization. The democratic principles enshrined in their beliefs, the historical significance of Gurdwaras as centres of religious and social life, and the concept of the Panth (the collective body of Sikhs) as the ultimate authority are all examined in detail. Through vivid descriptions of historical incidents and the sacrifices made by Akali reformers, the book sheds light on the Sikhs' unwavering commitment to their faith and their pursuit of self-governance. Themes of equality, justice, and the enduring power of faith resonate throughout, offering valuable insights into a community that has played a significant role in shaping the religious and political landscape of India. The book's exploration of the Akali movement serves as a testament to the human spirit's resilience in the face of oppression and the enduring legacy of a community dedicated to its principles.
