This book is written with the intent to invite Sikhs to explore their own religion and to consider how the LDS Christian doctrines can add to their faith. It is an attempt to persuade Sikhs to consider how the teachings of Jesus Christ can enhance their faith. The Restored church has much to offer Sikhs to understand not only their own faith but also to give them a better perspective of God`s dealings with all mankind. New scriptures have come forth by a prophet which will give further light and knowledge of God`s plan for all mankind.

Sikhism, a religion of twenty million people with its heartland in India, is one of the least-understood traditions in the world. The state of Punjab in which the majority of Sikhs live has been the site of a serious conflict in the past two decades. This book contains ten essays on Sikhs, Hindus, human rights, and violence, illuminating one of the dark corners of the world we live in. From a grass-roots perspective rooted in anthropology to issues of ethics and international politics, the author guides her readers through the complex maze that is contemporary India and the Indian diaspora. Anyone interested in conflicts going on today around religious and ethnic identities will find this collection invaluable the first time available in book form.

Kashmir is one of the longest-standing conflicts yet to be resolved by the international community. In 2000, Bill Clinton declared it the most dangerous place in the world and since then the situation continues to escalate. Positioned between India, Pakistan and China – three nuclear powers – Kashmir is the most militarized zone on the planet. Against this backdrop, the urgency to understand what Jammu and Kashmir means to those who actually belong to its territory has increased. This book not only helps readers navigate subtleties in a complex part of the world but is the first of its kind – written for a global audience from local perspectives, which to date have been sorely lacking.

Many disenchanted Kashmiris continue to demand independence or freedom from India. Written by a leading authority on Kashmir’s troubled past, this book revisits the topic of independence for the region (also known as Jammu and Kashmir, or J&K), and explores exactly why this aspiration has never been fulfilled. In a rare India-Pakistan agreement, they concur that neither J&K, nor any part of it, can be independent. Charting a complex history and intense geo-political rivalry from Maharaja Hari Singh’s leadership in the mid-1920s to the present, this book offers an essential insight into the disputes that have shaped the region. As tensions continue to rise following government-imposed COVID-19 lockdowns, Snedden asks a vital question: what might independence look like and just how realistic is this aspiration?
