An important aspect of any Sikh religious service is the reading from the Guru Granth or taking Hukam Nama. The Guru Granth Sahib is a hefty tome of 1,430 pages. Sikh tradition is that from roughly the middle half of the Guru Granth, usually at the beginning of a randomly selected page (or the previous page if the hymn started there), one hymn is selected. This is read as the Hukam Nama or the Order of the Day. Clearly, many Sikhs living outside the Punjabi ambience would have great diffic...

In Appreciation No matter what the occasion, every Sikh religious service concludes with the reading of a hymn from the Guru Granth. Sikhs in attendance listen to it most raptly so as to understand this guiding message from the Guru Granth. But understanding the sacred poetry of Gurbani is not always so easy. At least four complete translations in English of the entire Guru Granth existby Manmohan Singh, Gopal Singh, Gurbachan Singh Talib, and Pritam Singh Chahalalong with many excellent t...

Dr. Daljeet Singh Ji has done a truly commendable job by writing this book. Nowadays, due to the influence of Derawad (sectarianism) and self-proclaimed preachers, the true meanings of Gurbani — especially the deeper interpretations — have been kept away from the Sangat (congregation). Because many of these individuals lack proper understanding, they end up misinterpreting Gurbani, causing much confusion. To counter this one-sided preaching, the author has included essays from various scho...
