Guru Nanak's Mystic Message: Japji Rhymed in English

By Guru Nanak Ji and Tinaji Yogini

From his first words after his enlightenment experience in the late 1400s, Guru Nanak spoke a truth so powerful and beautiful that Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist alike celebrated him. His words were too precious to simply say, so they were sung as he meditated and his companion Mardana played music. This is Japji Sahib, or Song of the Soul, a collection of his beautiful poetry that came to form the basis of the world's fifth largest religion, Sikhism. However, the first thing Nanak taught is that we are one, and though his successors became mired in division in the midst of the war-torn Middle East, Nanak's words remind us again and again that he "saw no muslim, he saw no Hindu," he saw only the Divine. Japji is recited daily in the predawn hours by millions of Sikh faithful around the world. Here this poetry is presented, often in the same meter as the original, to bring the joy of singing recitation along with comprehension to English speakers. * Metered and rhymed for lulling recitation or lively musical interpretation * Links to audio recordings will let you read or listen along, helping with memorization * Large type makes it easy to read in the early dawn "Amrit Vela" * A guide to intention setting practices will help you create positive transformation in your life
