Relevance of Guru Granth Sahib
by Shashi Bala, Singh Brothers, Amritsar.

Spiritual teachings are essentially timeless. They remain relevant to the society for all ages. This is true of Guru Granth Sahib too. The author states that this Holy Scripture ‘`85 is not a mere system, philosophy or an ideology but is a living experience of spiritual preceptors`85’ of variegated traditions. Imbued with nirguna religiosity, the holy Granth lays great stress upon harmonious relationship between spirit and matter, man with his inner self, his fellow beings and with the whole cosmos. Divided into nine chapters this cerebral tome interprets the holy book’s teachings in the context of modern social and global issues. Sikhism’s action oriented philosophy enmeshes with tolerance and catholicity in such a way that one can interpret its tenets to understand the contemporary world, as this eminently readable tome has done so successfully.
