It is generally accepted that Guru Nanak (1469-1539CE) is the founder of a new and modern religion, Sikhi (Sikhism). However, Sikhism being practiced today is quite far away from the philosophy promulgated by Guru Nanak. It is due tto the fact that it is being presented under the shadow of Vedantic philosophy. And some Western scholars think Sikhism to be syncretism, a mixture of Hinduism and Islam. First few chapters of this book prepare the minds of the readers how to understand Nanakian Philosophy and thereafter it discusses scientifically and logically the important questions often asked by the inquisitive minds. It is sincerely hoped that understanding of Nanakian Philosophy in its real perspective will lay a foundation for interpreting the Aad Guru Granth Sahib into a standardized English Translation of the Aad Guru Granth Sahib, which could serve as a role model for further translation into other languages of the world. Ultimately it would also help to construct an integrated and precise philosophy of Sikhism.
