Ang 844, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, Raag Bilaaval
“I have no other spiritual wisdom, meditation or worship; the Name of the Lord alone dwells deep within me. I know nothing about religious robes, pilgrimages or stubborn fanaticism; O Nanak, I hold tight to the Truth.”
This book is compiled by a Bedi clan direct descendant of Guru Nanak from various sources.
​
The book covers all 10 Guru’s and the 11th eternal living Guru the Shri Guru Granth Sahib (SGGS) and is as much a book on Guru Gobind as it is on Guru Nanak, reflecting the reality of the Guru’s contributions and the immense respect that the compiler has for all of them (“They shared the One light”, Ang 966). Ultimately the book reflects the Compilers thoughts and questions which are reflected in facts, views and opinions.
