Immortal Warrior-Defending The Martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur
Manage episode 347496155 series 3353417
Professor Audrey Truschke, the Hindu Right and Islamists-these three seemingly disparate entities are united in denying and disparaging the martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur the ninth Sikh Guru. In this episode not only do we answer their allegation that no contemporary source exists to evince this martyrdom, but we also cite contemporary Persian sources written by those nearest to Aurangzeb substantiating the lead-up to the event and its aftermath. We are joined in this episode by eminent Sikh historian and researcher S. Inderjeet Singh (Afghan Hindus And Sikhs) who rediscovered these sources in the late 2010s.
