Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In November 1984, a seven-year-old Sikh boy in Delhi survived because his mother stood in the doorway and spoke Tamil. Four decades later, he wrote the book he was never given.For more than a century, Sikhs have been told who they are by other people. A Hindu sect. A blend of Hinduism and Islam. The sword arm of someone else's faith. A threat. A census category.Na Hum Hindu Na Musalman tests every one of those claims against the evidence, and answers them in the Guru's own words.The title comes from Guru Arjan Dev Ji, at Ang 1136 of the Guru Granth Sahib. In five lines, the Guru sets aside the fasts, pilgrimages and forms of worship of both neighbouring traditions by name. This book shows why that verse is not a slogan but a settled argument, and builds the full case around it.Inside you will find- Scripture. Every verse cited by Ang, printed in the original Gurmukhi and translated plainly.- History. From Guru Nanak's refusal of the sacred thread to the Khalsa of 1699, the Sikh Empire, the Singh Sabha and 1984.- Law. How courts in Britain and Canada have recognised Sikhs as a distinct people, and what India's Constitution really says.- Neuroscience. Twelve Sikh practices, from seva and sangat to nitnem and chardi kala, tested against modern research, with every claim graded Strong, Moderate or Emerging.- The ten strongest objections, answered in the open. "Guru Nanak was a Hindu reformer." "Guru Tegh Bahadur died for Hindus." "Gurbani says Ram." "Caste is just culture."- Quick Answers. One-page rebuttals for the classroom, the workplace, the family dinner and the comment section.This is not a book against anyone. It holds Sikh tradition to the same standard of evidence it applies to everyone else, and it refuses to mock any faith. Its conclusion is the Guru's own. Sikhi is not a branch of Hinduism, not a bridge to Islam and not a blend of the two. It is a distinct path, with its own scripture, history, institutions and people.Distinct, not opposed.For every young Sikh who has been told who they are, for every parent who wants to give their children the faith and not just the habits, and for every reader who wants to understand Sikhs in their own words.Part of The Neuroscience of Sikhi series.
