Jap Ji Sahib: Song of the Gods

 
Prit Paul Singh Bambah (Author)
Synopsis The contents of Jap Ji Sahib were composed in poetic form by Guru Nanak in the 15th century. At that time the Punjabi language which has its roots and deep association with Sanskrit and later on with its diluted form of Hindi, was also in touch with Persian and Arabic culture. Many of the Persian and Arabic words in somewhat refined form were adopted by the Punjabi language of that period.  To convey the very essence of the teaching and the depth of the feelings of Guru Nanak, this book is being presented in four languages, with a view to make the readers aware of oriental culture. With this the English-speaking world can also easily absorb the essence of each word and each couplet with the spiritual reflection as projected by Guru Nanak. Jap Ji Sahib has been translated by many scholars, both Indian (Hindus and Muslims) and Englishmen. They have used scholarly language and tried to find the corresponding meanings or counterparts through Sanskrit Kosh, or other such medium.

About the author

Prit Paul Singh Bambah

Prit Paul Singh Bambah, a lover of peace tried to present his suggestions of a peaceful global society through some of his published works. The idea behind the translation of Hap Ji Sahib is to project the universality of the basic concept of God. Guru Nanak's spiritualism brought out the essence of truthful living through his shalokas which he preached during his lifetime. It's significance in day-to-day life gradually taded away when people began using it as a written piece of prayer and chanted it without understanding its meaning in the letter and spirit. Guru Nanak's message of human values and universal understanding is once again depicted in the script of Jap Ji Sahib in four languages along with its adequate translation from Gurumukhi to English. P.P.S. Bambah's other published works include Insaniat in which human values have not only been interpreted with reference to some world religions but at the same time their philosophical principles have been projected. His second book was Dilemma of the People of India and Pakistan where he has successfully evaluated the commonness of the people of two neighbouring countries who share a common culture, languages and heritage. His latest work which is in the process of being published is Faces of Terrorism which again carries the massages for coexistence of the peaceful global society. The author is an Engineer by profession but has an eminent for creative writing that goes back to his early years. Even at the age of 80 he is still actively engaged in his professional work in New York. His meditative mind coupled with spirituality has made him steadfastly pursue creative writing, which still occupies him.
