The Sikh religion was founded by Guru Nanak (1469–1539), who drew upon the teachings of Muslim, Sufis and Hindu Bhaktas. In its purest form Sikhism is about unity, simplicity, equality and surrender (to God), and the verses of the Sikh Gurus—most of them included in the Granth Sahib—articulate this beautifully. This elegantly illustrated edition contains a selection of verses from the Guru Granth Sahib and other sacred texts like Guru Tegh Bahadur’s Vairagmayi Bani and the Dasam Granth of Guru Gobind Singh. Brilliantly translated by Khushwant Singh, these moving mystical hymns retain the immediacy and the lyricism of the originals. In addition, vibrant and imaginative illustrations by Arpana Caur, one of India’s most celebrated artists, make this a collection to treasure.

In this translation of some of Guru Nanak s finest devotional poems, the fifteenth century founder of the Sikh religion points the way to self-realisation by love, devotion, and service to man and God. The hymns have as direct and strong a message today as they did when they were first composed. The elements of faith and passion are sensitively brought out in Arpita Singh s paintings which, in colour and inspired drawing, heighten the aesthetic and spiritual dimensions of Guru Nanak s divine verse.

To revive Punjabi as a literary language, efforts had to be made at a level of world-historical importance. There was the urgent need to enrich its diction that Guru Nanak did by borrowing words from all possible sources i. e. classical languages; not only Sanskrit and Pali of the Indian origin but also Arabic and Persian of what was then regarded as vilayat. In this context, the dialects of the areas to the west of Punjab were also not ignored. Thereby, Braj, Rajputani and even Sindhi were tapped for this purpose. Guru Nanak also saw to it that derivation from multiple sources was not of the haphazard sort. Two techniques were at hand i. e. tatsam and tadvabh which, in a masterly way, he employed to form words of his own. He did so by altering the spellings, tones, intonations and even the meanings of words for use in his diction. From my study of the Western literature of the medieval times, I can think only of Dante who employed such subtle and suitable means to develop the Italian language. Prof. Tejwant Singh Gill

The eclectic mix of personal essays, poems and scholarly articles and the teachings of Guru Nanak that form this volume have come from contributors of not only the Sikh community in India, Pakistan and the diaspora, but also from people belonging to other faiths who have been touched by the mystique of the faith of Baba Nanak. By placing the personal records alongside with the scholarly insights into His teachings, what we have understood is that there is a Nanak for each one of us – a Nanak within each one of us – and it is this Nanak which abides in our consciousness and whom we need to seek out and discover. This book is, therefore, meant both for the initiated as well as the uninitiated. The lay readers will get a glimpse into the richness of thought and experience that an acquaintance with Guru Nanak brings with it. For the scholarly, the insights by the contributors who have dedicated their lives to an understanding of Sikhi will help in opening newer vistas of the Gurbani. The plurality of views expressed mirrors the free thinking and the respect for human beings and the upholding of human dignity that Nanakji propagated, practiced and stood for.

Guru Nanak, one of the greatest philosophers and thinkers the world has known, was far ahead of his time in voicing social issues. He embarked on an altruistic mission to far-off lands to challenge past beliefs, doctrines, and prejudices and build an alternative social structure based on principles of equality and justice. His eternal message has a very strong appeal and his teachings, which transcend the limits of time and space cannot be confined to a community, country, or time. His the name still resonates all over the world and people still look up to him for guidance. This book portrays Baba Nanak’s unique, perennial and sublime, message of the close relationship of man with the cosmos, and his love for humanity. It is a humble endeavor to study the life and mission of Nanak, a man of the people, and thereby introduce the reader to his divine personality and teachings.
