Sikhism, one of the world's youngest major religions, has roots that stretch deep into the socio-political and spiritual fabric of South Asia. Founded in the late 15th century by Guru Nanak Dev Ji in the Punjab region, Sikhism emerged as a response to the spiritual needs and social injustices of the time. It champions the principles of equality, justice, and service, inviting individuals from all walks of life to join in a collective pursuit of truth and devotion to one God. At its core, Sikhism is a monotheistic faith that emphasizes the importance of a personal relationship with the divine. The teachings of the ten Gurus, recorded in the Guru Granth Sahib, the sacred scripture of Sikhism, serve as a guiding light for millions around the world. This scripture not only contains hymns and poetry that extol the virtues of love, compassion, and humility but also reflects the rich cultural diversity of its origins, incorporating elements from various religious and philosophical traditions. Sikhism's distinct identity is marked by its unique practices, such as the wearing of the Five Articles of Faith (the Five Ks), community kitchen (Langar), and the commitment to social justice and equality. The faith’s communal spirit, reflected in the Gurdwara—a place of worship and gathering—fosters a sense of belonging and collective responsibility among Sikhs. As we delve deeper into the teachings, rituals, and historical development of Sikhism in this book, we will explore the faith's contributions to the global religious landscape and its impact on contemporary society. We will examine how Sikh values resonate in today’s world, addressing critical issues such as religious tolerance, community service, and social equity.Zum Buch

Bluhm draws from her own writing as well as guest contributions from a diverse group of clergywomen, authors, and activists. Each devotion invites listeners to learn from women who have managed tension, survived the seemingly impossible, and embodied a resilient faith. Listeners will emerge from their forty-day journey with a more vibrant spirituality to fuel them in their everyday lives.Zum Buch
