| 520 | |a The importance of amrit ('nectar', holy water) for Sikh children in Coventry illustrates the sanctity of water in Indian tradition in ways which challenge the understanding of amrit in publications on the Sikh tradition. For these young British Sikhs amrit is water which has been transformed and, in turn, transforms. It is a readily available means of channelling the Guru's power into the individual's life and is often associated with living masters (sants, babas), so providing insight into their controversial role in Sikh communities. Examination of the meanings of amrit in the lives of young British Sikhs raises two related issues for religious studies and education. One is the significance of ethnography for the representation of faith traditions, and the second is finding an appropriate model for understanding the spectrum of published and observed Sikh practice and belief concerning amrit. | ||
