Buy from FlipkartSikhism is the youngest of the major world religions and the most modern and egalitarian in its practice. The scriptural authority for its followers is the 'Gurbani' in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Japji Sahib is the quintessential 'bani' and the key to the philosophy expounded by the Gurus. Guru Nanak's Japji Sahib: Way to God in Sikhism by Maneshwar S. Chahal is a unique presentation in that, before offering well-reasoned conclusions, it puts forth many a point of view and not just any single interpretation of the verses. It will help the lay reader to easily understand the Guru's message and offer the scholar ready material for deeper study of this vast subject. At the beginning of the book has been added the text of the verses of Japji in Roman script, as also in 'Gurmukhi' for those who would want to also experience the joy of chanting the 'bani.'
An engineer by training, Maneshwar S. Chahal has served in the IAS in Punjab and in the Central Government. His illustrious career has seen him serve as CMD of a public sector bank, and he was also a member of the Punjab State Human Rights Commission. He admits that literature is his first love and, in all probability, his true calling. A voracious reader all his life, he also has a few short stories to his credit. The study of spiritual literature, especially that relating to the Sikh religion, has been his passion. He has to his credit now three books in the series 'Way to God in Sikhism.'
