Description

A collection of valuable articles by eminent scholars in Sikh studies as well as distinguished persons from diverse fields.

The articles in this volume cover a wide range of subjects: from the formation of Khans Panth to the various aspects of Sikh life. To give a contemporary touch, these thought-provoking articles are interspersed with sidelights and musings that also provide the much needed relief to the readers.

Specially included, once again, is the poem in Tamil by the distinguished poet and freedom fighter Subramania Bharathi. Both the original poem and it's English translation appear in the book. The poem documents the historic Anandpur Sahib episode on April 13, 1699, to mark the creation of the Khalsa and recaptures the mood.
