CHAPTER NOTES
INTRODUCTION NOTES:
1. See Mark Juergensmeyer, "The Forgotten Tradition in World Religions" in Sikh Studies: Comparative Perspectives on a Changing Tradition (Berkeley: Graduate Theological Union, 1979).
2. See W.H. McLeod, The Evolution of the Sikh Religion (Oxford: Claredon Press, 1970).
CHAPTER ONE NOTES:
1.See Karine Schomer’s and W.H. McLeod’s (editors) The Sants: Studies in a Devotional Tradition of India (Berkeley and Delhi: Motilal Banarsidass, 1987).
2. McLeod somewhat stands alone when he says that the Sufi influence was marginal. Others like Vaudeville, O’Flarety, Lawerance, and Barthwal argue that the Sants were very influenced by the Sufis, citing as evidence Dadu’s Sufi guru, Kabir’s trips to the pir Shaykh Taqqi, and the similar ideas such as waralwara (ineffable God), ishq (viraha; love) and dhikr (shabd).
3. See Charolette Vaudeville, Kabir (Oxford: Claredon Press, 1974).
4. See Charlotte Vaudeville’s Kabir (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1974).
5. See W.H. McLeod, Guru Nanak and the Sikh Religion (Oxford: Claredon Press, 1968).
6. his same debate centers around Kabir. Daniel Gold in The Lord as Guru (New York: Oxford University Press, 1987) argues that Kabir had a human guru, while McLeod contends that his guru was probably the inner voice of shabd.

CHAPTER TWO NOTES:
1. In W.H. McLeod’s Guru Nanak and the Sikh Religion (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1976) he criticizes this three-fold account was way too simplistic.

CONCLUSION NOTES:
1. Yet, despite losses of both land and lives from the partition, Sikhs were able to flourish in independent India, raising Punjab’s per capita income to the highest in the country, namely via agriculture.
