ABSTRACT

In this article, I first address the call for Catholics to participate in interreligious dialogue and note the absence of Sikhi in most Vatican documents prior to recent times. I then trace recent Catholic-Sikh dialogues or papal tweets about Sikhi or the inclusion of Sikhs at interfaith events. I also argue why Sikh individuals, communities, and institutions should engage in this specific form of interreligious dialogue with Catholic Christians.

I then present how I envision Guru Nanak as an early religious exemplar of both interfaith dialogue and embracing religious pluralism and how this example and advocacy can be a boon both for Christians and for Catholic-Sikh dialogue more specifically.

摘要

在本文中，我首先呼吁天主教徒参与宗教间对话，并指出最近之前的大多数梵蒂冈文件中都没有锡克希人。然后我追踪最近的天主教-锡克教徒对话或教皇关于锡克教徒的推文或锡克教徒参与跨宗教活动。我还论证了为什么锡克教个人、社区和机构应该与天主教基督徒进行这种特定形式的宗教间对话。

然后，我将介绍我如何将古鲁纳纳克视为宗教间对话和拥抱宗教多元化的早期宗教典范，以及这个例子和倡导如何为基督徒和更具体的天主教-锡克教对话带来福音。
