This volume contains essays on different aspects of Guru Granth Sahib and its context by eminent scholars from India and abroad, presented at an International Seminar inaugurated by Dr. Manmohan Singh, the Prime Minister of India. In Guru Granth Sahib, we find the essence of the wisdom of that great period of philosophical ferment in India during which the Sikh Gurus, the Muslim Sufi Saints and the Hindu Bhaktas, tries to provide unifying message by emphasizing transcendental vision of the Ultimate. Much before the inception of ecumenical movement in the west, Guru Arjan Dev by compiling the Guru Granth Sahib clearly provided a model of inter-faith dialogue wherein he collated the teachings of all those saints who shared Guru Nanak’s vision on unity of Godhead.
