Three Basics of Sikh Religious Thought: Faith, Grace and Prayer

In all probability, this is the first ever critical study of faith, grace and prayer in Sikh religious thought from the viewpoint of present-day philosophy. Dr. Satnam Kaur all along avails of the two major approaches in philosophy today, namely, those of phenomenology and linguistic analysis. Thus, care has been taken to unravel the fabric of the (Sikh gurus’) living experience of faith, grace and prayer–with minimal damage to its intricate singleness; and, at many a place, meticulous attention to the literal and suggested meanings of Gurbani has enabled the authoress to improve upon the current translations of the Adi Granth. The book may well be expected to improve our understanding of the three concepts chosen.
