Recognized masterpieces of Indian literature, the Guru Granth Sahib
and the Dasam Granth are fundamental to the Sikh religion, not only
in the physical layout of temples and in ceremonies of worship, but
as infallible reference texts offering counsel and instruction.
Teachings of the Sikh Gurus presents a brand new selection of key
passages from these sacred scriptures, translated into modern
English by leading experts, Christopher Shackle and Arvind-pal
Singh Mandair. Including six longer compositions and many shorter
hymns thematically organised by topics such as Time and
Impermanence, Self and Mind, Authority, and Ethics, the book's
accessible and carefully chosen extracts distil the essence of
Sikhism's remarkable textual and intellectual legacy, depicting how
its message of universal tolerance suits the contemporary world.
The detailed introduction and notes to the translations aid
readers' comprehension of the hymns' form and content, as well as
providing some historical context, making it an ideal introduction
to Sikh literature.
