Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Rationality and Revelation: A Sikh Perspective on Science-Religion Dialogue, edited by Prof. Hardev Singh Virk and Dr. Devinder Pal Singh, offers a compelling exploration of the relationship between Sikh philosophy and scientific inquiry. This interdisciplinary volume presents Sikhism as a tradition that harmoniously bridges empirical knowledge with spiritual insight, emphasizing that science and spirituality are complementary paths to understanding reality.Featuring nine thought-provoking essays by leading scientists and theologians, the book highlights the compatibility between Sikh teachings and the scientific method. Central to this dialogue is the Guru Granth Sahib, which encourages rational thought, observation, and contemplation-principles foundational to both scientific and spiritual exploration.Dr. Devinder Pal Singh introduces the Sikh commitment to truth-seeking and the rejection of dogma, illustrating how Sikh thought supports both scientific discovery and reflective spirituality. Job Kozhamthadam contrasts Sikhism with other Abrahamic faiths, revealing its distinctive ability to unify spiritual wisdom with scientific reasoning.A central theme throughout the book is Guru Nanak's visionary thinking and scientific disposition. Essays by Kuldip Singh Dhir and Prof. Hardev Singh Virk examine Guru Nanak's insights into cosmology and the interconnectedness of life, advocating a holistic understanding of the universe that resonates with contemporary science. Rabinder Singh Bhamra further underscores the complementary nature of science and religion, proposing that they can enrich each other when seen as interconnected rather than conflicting.Kirpal Singh explores scientific metaphors in the Guru Granth Sahib, revealing Sikhism's deep engagement with the natural world and its alignment with reason and inquiry. Prof. Hardev Singh Virk expands this dialogue to address pressing global concerns such as environmental degradation and technological progress. Drawing on Sikh ethical values, he advocates for science guided by compassion, responsibility, and spiritual awareness.The book introduces Guru Nanak as a "communicator scientist," a term coined by A. B. Bhattacharya, highlighting the Guru's ability to present complex spiritual and scientific concepts in accessible language. This idea is reinforced in Devinder Singh Sekhon's essay, which explores the compatibility between Sikh philosophy and scientific principles, emphasizing their potential for mutual enrichment.In the final chapter, Dr. Devinder Pal Singh explores the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) for the science-religion dialogue. He calls for ethical reflection and spiritual wisdom in guiding AI's role in society, emphasizing the need for values-based innovation.Rationality and Revelation: A Sikh Perspective on Science-Religion Dialogue advocates for an integrative worldview rooted in Sikh principles of unity, humility, and truth. At a time of rapid technological change and moral complexity, this book offers valuable insights into how Sikhism can inspire a balanced, ethical, and spiritually grounded approach to scientific advancement.Uniting science and faith in the shared pursuit of truth, this book contributes meaningfully to global conversations at the intersection of science, philosophy, and religion.
