The journal deals with current academic issues relating to Sikh religion and history, besides exposition of basic Sikh doctrines and interpretation of Gurbani.To read current and back issues of the Abstracts of Sikh Studies, please visit the Journal section of the website.
3. Seminars and Conferences
In 1990-91 seven International Sikh Conferences were organised in U.K., Canada, and U.S.A., at London, Toronto, Vancouver, Berkeley, Chicago, Washington D.C., and New York, to promote understanding of Sikh Thought. Such conferences are now an annual feature and since 1995 the Institute has been holding annual seminars. Top scholars from India and abroad participate in these seminars. Papers presented at these seminars are brought out in a book form, and the issues discussed are pursued further to achieve tangible results. Besides annual seminars, additional mini-seminars, are also organized from time to time. The IOSS members meet regularly every month to discuss current issues confronting the Panth (community).
