The Japji, composed by Guru Nanak, the founder of the Sikh faith, is the most important prayer of the Sikhs and one of the most sublime and majestic examples of sacred poetry in any language. Comprising a series of hymns in praise of 'The One God Who is Truth', it opens the sacred book of the Sikhs, the Guru Granth Sahib and is recited every morning by all practising Sikhs. The Rehras is a prayer of thanks giving, recited at the end of the day in gratitude and also for inspiration. It comprises hymns by five of the ten Sikh Gurus: Guru Nanak, Guru Amar Das, Guru Ram Das, Guru Arjun and Guru Gobind Singh. This volume brings together Khushwant Singh's classic English translations of the two best-known and in many ways, defining sacred compositions of the Sikhs. Beautifully illustrated, this is a collector's edition for anyone interested not only in the Sikh faith but also in great sacred literature.
