Synopsis

This book delves into the life and teachings of Baba Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, through the lens of historical accounts known as Janam-sakhis. The author meticulously analyzes and compares various versions of these accounts, separating the likely facts from the embellishments that arose over time. Emerging from a period of religious and political upheaval in 15th-century India, Nanak's spiritual journey and revolutionary ideas challenged the existing social and religious order. He rejected the divisions between Hindus and Muslims, advocating for a path of devotion to a single God and emphasizing ethical living over ritualistic practices. Through detailed narratives and insightful interpretations, the book sheds light on Nanak's early life, his transformative experiences, and his subsequent travels as a wandering preacher. It explores his encounters with various religious figures and the impact of his teachings on the communities he touched. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced and captivating portrait of a pivotal figure in religious history, revealing the enduring significance of Nanak's message of unity, equality, and spiritual enlightenment.
