The Absolute Truth being infinite, It cannot be defined through words or concepts, which are relative and limited, therefore finite. Any discussion of the Ultimate reality in the scriptures is merely indicative or descriptive. One such 'pointer' in the direction of the Absolute Truth- and an extremely effective one at that- is Sri Guru Nanak Devji's Mul Mantra(Ik Onkar), found in the Guru Granth Sahib.

A must-read for anyone concerned about our future. An unseen battle is raging, more vital to the future of humanity and the planet than any other: we must learn to control our own human minds.

The teachings of Baba Virsa Singh are the real mechanism of transformation. Yuriy Ageshin, legal advisor to the Duma. Impact on India -- Babaji has offered us a practical example of how we as a nation and a world can overcome our religious differences. Babaji himself worked and linked people to the land, and showed the way for our country to progress. Kuldip Nayar, eminent journalist, former High Commissioner to England. Overcoming Religious Conflict -- In the way that God`s messenger does it, Babaji has been teaching us who live in one world but in so many different ways how to live as one nation and as one human family. Dr. Bhai Mohan Singh, Chairman Emeritus, Ranbaxy, Ltd. Overcoming Poverty --The work is worship approach pioneered by Babaji at Gobind Sadan is the spiritual soul mate of my work in empowering the poor.

This book examines three closely related questions in the process of canon formation in the Sikh tradition: how the text of the Adi Granth came into being, the meaning of gurbani, and how the Adi Granth became the Guru Granth Sahib. The censure of scholarly research on the Adi Granth was closely related to the complex political situation of Punjab and brought the whole issue of academic freedom into sharper focus. This book addresses some of these issues from an academic perspective. The Adi Granth, the sacred scripture of the Sikhs, means ‘first religious book’ (from the word ‘adi’ which means ‘first’ and ‘granth’ which means ‘religious book’). Sikhs normally refer to the Adi Granth as the Guru Granth Sahib to indicate a confession of faith in the scripture as Guru. The contents of the Adi Granth are commonly known as bani (utterance) or gurbani (the utterance of the Guru). The transcendental origin (or ontological status) of the hymns of the Adi Granth is termed dhur ki bani (utterance from the beginning). This particular understanding of revelation is based upon the doctrine of the sabad, or divine word, defined by Guru Nanak and the succeeding Gurus. This book also explores the revelation of the bani and its verbal expression, devotional music in the Sikh tradition, the role of the scripture in Sikh ceremonies, and the hymns of Guru Nanak and Guru Arjan.
