(Guru Ram Das, gave birth to Arjan at Goindwal on Tuesday ...)

Guru Ram Das, gave birth to Arjan at Goindwal on Tuesday the jtli day of the dark half of Baisakh, Sambat 1620 (A.D. 1563). We have already related one legend of Guru A inar Das sfondness for his grandson A rjan, and of his offer to him of the Guruship, A nother legend is also current. The child Arjan one day found his way to the bed of Guru A marD as while taking his repose. It was generally considered a serious thing to disturb the Guru in his siesta. Bibi Bhani on missing the child ran to fetch him. He had, however, already awakened the Guru, who said, 4L et him come to me; yih mem dohita pani ka bohita howcga this grandson of mine shall be a boat to take mankind across the ocean of the world. Arjan was in due time married toG anga, daughter of Krishan Chand, a resident of the village of Meo in the Philor sub-collectorate of the present district of Jalandhar. The details of Arjan slife up to the date of his father Guru Ram Das sdeath are given in the life of the latter. It will be remembered that he died in Goindwal. After his decease, Mohri, maternal uncle of A rjan, bestowed on him a turban as his fathers heir, accorditfg to ancient custom. Prithia urged that it wasH ehimself who, as eldest son of the late Guru Ram Das, should receive the turban. Upon this Guru Arjan conferred it on him and returned to A mritsar.

Born and educated in Ireland, Max Arthur Macauliffe (1841-1913) joined the Indian Civil Service in 1862. In 1882 he was promoted to the post of deputy commissioner of the Punjab. But it was after he retired from the civil service in 1893 that he gained public attention. Macauliffe developed a close affinity with Sikhism while in the Punjab, eventually converting to the religion. His translation into English of the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of Sikhism, is recognised as the most accurate to date. Following this project, he set to work on this six-volume set, covering the history and philosophy of Sikhism, first published in 1909 and still regarded as the definitive work on the subject. The volumes cover the lives and compositions of the Sikh gurus, as well as the Hindu and Muslim saints who contributed to the Sikh holy book.

I lle ego qui quondam gracili modulatus avena Carmen nunc horrentia Martis Arma virosque 2cano. Lo! I the man whose muse whilom did mask, As time her taught, in lowly shepherds weeds, Am now enforced a far unfitter task For trumpets stern to change mine oaten reeds. SPENSER. THE early life of Guru Har Gobind has already been given in the life of his father Guru A rjan. On 1B esides the life of the sixth Guru by Bhai Santokh Singh, mentioned in the I ntroduction, there is another work called Gur Bilas on the same subject. The name of the author is not given. In the preface to it it is stated that Bhai Mani Singh went toN ankana. The ragis were singing Gur Das scompositions. When they came to the following There were five cups, five priests, the great priest the sixth Guru sat on his throne one Bhagat Singh, a devout Sikh of the locality, called upon Mani Singh to give an account of Guru Har Gobind, the sixth Guru. Mani Singh replied, I will relate to thee what Guru Gobind Singh told Bhai Daya Singh, and what the latter communicated to me. One Dharm Singh was present, and heard Mani Singh snarrative. He gave its details to the author of the Gur Bilas, whom he had previously baptized. The author of the work states that he completed it inS ambat 1775 (A.D. 1718). Sardar Kahn Singh of Nabha, however, gives it as his opinion that the work was compiled by Bhai Gurumukh Singh and Bhai Barbara Singh, a priest and a chorister respectively of theS ikh temple at A mritsar, and that they began their literary labour in the reign of Maharaja Ranjlt Singh and finished it in the reign of Maharaja Sher Singh. We are also indebted for several details of the life of Guru Har Gobind to a manuscript life of that Guru in the Panjabi language, and also to the Hindi work, I tihds Guru Khalsa, of Sadhu Gobind Singh of Banaras. 2V irgil had only one hero; we have several.

The Sikh Religion, Vol. 1 of 6: Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors (Classic Reprint)

(The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors...)

The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors: Volume 1 of 6 is a seminal work on the Sikh religion. Author Max Arthur Icauliffe was one of the first to bring a detailed account of Sikhism to the Western world in English and did so with great style, giving an account that followers of the religion can be proud of while educating those who do not. Assisted by accomplished and respected Sikh scholars, Icauliffe studied and translated the holy writings of the Sikh religion into English. The purpose of this book, volume one in a six volume set, is to introduce Sikhism to Westerners by way of an introduction to the broad beliefs and principles of the religion, as well as an examination of the gurus and sacred writings that are of great importance to Sikhism. Icauliffe does not simply present a translation of the sacred texts without comment. Rather, the author's voice is present throughout the book, introducing, describing, and generally leading the reader through a detailed introduction into Sikhism. Icauliffe is authoritative in his descriptions and his words are tremendously beneficial for a reader to whom this is their first introduction to Sikhism. The detailed biography of Guru Nanak, the founder of the Sikh religion, is the first chapter presented and is absolutely worthy of being read. It is as detailed an account of the Guru's life as possible, and the logical starting point for any discussion of Sikhism. If one is only going to peruse this book, it is critical to first read the chapter on Guru Nanak. As a detailed and thorough an examination of Sikhism, The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors is a massive success, and essential reading for anybody interested in the religion.

(Excerpt from The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writing...)

Excerpt from The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors, Vol. 6 of 6 There have lived in India from time immemorial saints and thinkers who were dissatisfied with the superstitions and religious vagaries of the Hindus. They gradually evolved a belief in one God and preceded Guru Nanak as the dawn before sunrise. Abrupt indigenous alterations of religion have rarely, if ever, been presented to human experience. Some of the writings of the Guru's immediate precursors called Bhagats, or saints, are preserved in the Granth Sahib compiled by Guru Arjan. He selected for inclusion therein, with equal impartiality the writings of both Hindus and Musalmans, as they suited his purpose, and contributed to the great cause of religious reformation. we find in sacred volume compositions of Jaidev, Namdev, Trilochan, Parmanand, Sadhna, Beni, Ramanand, Dhanna, Pipa, Sain, Kabir Rav Das, Sur Das, verses of at least two Musalman saints, Farid and Bhikan; and one recension of the sacred volume called Banno's Granth, preserved at Mangat in the Gujrat district of the Panjab, contains a hymn composed by Mira Bai, Queen of Chitaur. It is believed that Guru Arjan did not give it a place in his collection because the lady lived and died an idolater. The Hindus Bhagats for the most part began life as worshippers of idols, but by study and contemplation arrived at a system of monotheism which appreciated by Guru Arjan.

He subsequently removed to the village of Harike, where he found a better opening for commerce. His wifes maiden name was Ramo, but after her marriage she was called Daya Kaur. She is described as a lady of gentle disposition, charitable, and religious. Four hours before day on the nth of Baisakh in theS ambat year 1561 (A.D. 1504) a son was born to them. He received the name Lahina. In due time he wedded a lady called Khivi, a native of Matte diS arai. His father grew weary of Harike, and with his own family and Lahina sreturned toM atte diS arai and lived there. Lahina swife there gave birth to a daughter called A mro and to two sons who were named Dasu and Datu. When Matte diS arai was sacked by theM ughals and Baloches, Pheru and Lahina sfamilies went to live inK hadur, now a famous Sikh town in the Tarn Tar an sub-collectorate of the Amritsar district.

The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors, Vol. 3 of 6 (Classic Reprint)

(Excerpt from The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writing...)

Excerpt from The Sikh Religion, Its Gurus, Sacred Writings and Authors, Vol. 3 of 6 Bibi Bhani, wife of Guru Ram Das, gave birth to Arjan at Goindwal on Tuesday the 7th day of the dark half of Baisakh, Sambat 1620 (A.D. 1563). We have already related one legend of Guru Amar Das's fondness for his grandson Arjan, and of his offer to him of the Guruship. Another legend is also current. The child Arjan one day found his way to the bed of Guru Amar Das while taking his repose. It was generally considered a serious thing to disturb the Guru in his siesta. Bibi Bhani on missing the child ran to fetch him. He had, however, already awakened the Guru, who said, 'Let him come to me; yih mera dohita pani ka bohita howega' - this grandson of mine shall be a boat to take mankind across the ocean of the world. Arjan was in due time married to Ganga, daughter of Krishan Chand, a resident of the village of Meo in the Philor sub-collectorate of the present district of Jalandhar. The details of Arjan's life up to the date of his father Guru Ram Das's death are given in the life of the latter. It will be remembered that he died in Goindwal. After his decease, Mohri, maternal uncle of Arjan, bestowed on him a turban as his father's heir, according to ancient custom. Prithia urged that it was he himself who, as eldest son of the late Guru Ram Das, should receive the turban. Upon this Guru Arjan conferred it on him and returned to Amritsar.
