SATNAM RISING: THE UNTOLD REVOLUTION OF GURU GHASIDAS

Satnam Rising: The Untold Revolution of Guru Ghasidas explores the life, philosophy, and social impact of Guru Ghasidas, an 18th-19th century reformer who challenged caste-based oppression and inequality. Set against a backdrop of rigid social hierarchies and moral contradictions, the book presents his doctrine of Satnam (truth) as a powerful force for spiritual and social transformation. It traces his journey from early experiences of discrimination to the establishment of the Satnam Panth, a movement rooted in equality, dignity, and ethical living. Through an interdisciplinary approach combining history, philosophy, and cultural narratives, the work highlights how Guru Ghasidas redefined spirituality as a tool of resistance against injustice. It also emphasizes the role of marginalized voices and oral traditions in shaping Indian intellectual history. Ultimately, the book positions his teachings as both a moral framework and a continuing source of inspiration for contemporary discussions on social justice, identity, and human dignity.
