Select Sikh Scriptures: Guru Nanak (Volume I)
Synopsis
Founded some 500 years ago by the venerable Guru Nanak, Sikhism is the youngest of the great religions of the world. The scriptures of this religion possess certain unique characteristics, i.e., they have not only been written in verse but have also been set to music (Hindustani, both classical and folk). The holy book of the Sikhs, the Guru Granth Sahib (a 1430-page compilation) has a universal appeal in that it has not been confined to the Sikh Gurus alone; it contains hymns of a galaxy of 30 other renowned Bhaktas (men of God) belonging to different religions. This volume presents a selection of hymns by Guru Nanak whose contribution to the Guru Granth Sahib has been significant (974 hymns). The compilation and the transcreation into English have been carried out by K.S. Duggal, a noted Punjabi litterateur. This collection will have companion volumes of selected works of Guru Arjan and other Sikh Gurus along with those of Bhaktas such as Kabir, Namdev and Ravi Das.
