Description
The grace and wisdom that Guru Nanak got from the Ek Omkar, he showered on and shared with ‘all’.
Have we collected our share, stored and used it to be wise and graceful?
If yes, then know its value and effects; if not, then regain through ‘Knowing Guru Nanak’, the essence of the Essential Guru to live fully and correctly the life of a human being and to get “Bliss, Beatitude and Salvation.”
‘Knowing Guru Nanak’ paints the Gurus, presents their teachings, shows the overlooked obvious, helps in flowing in the mainstream, gives vision and wisdom of the Guru and opens ajar the tightly closed conscience, widens the view and keeps awakened, active and conscious like the Guru.
Reviews about the book:
KNOWING GURU NANAK is one book that will bring you so much peace, tranquility, and love in your heart, that you will continue to pass it on to generations and generations to come. Not only are the words of grace, wisdom, bliss, and salvation down the various Gurus so precise, but they are written in a fashion that every one can understand. I can honestly say this book has changed my life. Prof. Shrikant Prasoon has produced a very timely book.
