"A milestone book, full of exquisite translations of the Guru Granth Sahib's writings." The Light We Give: How Sikh Knowledge Can Change Your Life, by Simran Jeet Singh, The fundamental principles upheld by millions of Sikhs worldwide are illuminated by a beautiful new translation of Guru Nanak's writings. The Sikh faith was established by Guru Nanak, a native of Panjab (1469?1539). The core of the Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikhs' revered book of ethics, philosophy, and religion, is composed of his enormous corpus of about a thousand hymns. His nine successors added to and improved the scripture, which Sikhs still regard today as the pinnacle of their heritage. Nikky-Guninder Kaur Singh, a leading expert on Sikhism, has produced a stunning new translation of a number of holy songs.
