The Sikh Shrines in Jammu and Kashmir
:The first edition of this book was Published by Guru Nanak Institute of Sikh studies, Denmark and the Sikh Educational Trust, Edmonton, Canada about Twenty years ago but I was extremely busy with other Lexicographic projects. The demand for the first and second edition of this book was such that a new edition was necessary. I hope that this enlarged and revised edition will be of greater service to the sikh studies. Many additions have been made to the subject matter of the book and I wish to thank readers of the first edition for their valuable suggestions, most of which have been incorporated in this edition. I am grateful to the authors of various books and periodicals which I have freely consulted in this revision. At the end I express my heartfelt gratitude to my well wishers and scholars for their valuable suggestions and moral help rendered from time to time.
Sikh Nationalism and Identity in a Global Age
Sikh Nationalism and Identity in a Global Age examines the construction of a Sikh national identity in post-colonial India and the diaspora and explores the reasons for the failure of the movement for an independent Sikh state: Khalistan.

Globalization is perceived to have severed the link between nation and state and, through the proliferation and develo...

The A to Z of Sikhism
Contrary to popular opinion, there is more to Sikhism than the distinctive dress. First of all, there is the emergence of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, and the long line of his successors. There are the precepts, many related to liberation through the divine name or nam. There is a particularly turbulent history in which the Sikhs have fought to affirm their beliefs and resist external domination that continues to this day. There is also, more recently, the dispersion from the Punjab throughout the rest of India and on to Europe and the Americas. With this emigration Sikhism has become considerably less exotic, but hardly better known to outsiders. This reference is an excellent place ...
