Böcker av Kamalpreet Singh Pardeshi

This is the forty-first chapter from the fifth Rut that is being published here into an English vernacular. What is the relevance of this chapter and why is this the commencement of the pure knowledge within the text? These ten chapters are a series of questions and answers between Bh¿¿ Day¿ Singh J¿ and the Sikhs on topics foundwithin Ved¿nt and Yog. This first chapter is based on the Karams. What are the karams? The Karams are the actions of cause and effect and the different types that induce good and bad merit to a person. This topic covers the different types, their differences and where they are stored. The subject matter is very difficult to comprehend so I have tried to simplify the language and the content from the commentary by Gi¿n¿ Harbhajan Singh J¿ when he expounds the text. This is so that the knowledge can be grasped easier to those that wishto learn and can provide points of further investigation and learning if the seeker desires.

This small book is an edited translation from a book called the'Parbodh Chandar N¿tak' written by Pandit Gul¿b Singh Nirmal¿.This book comprises of a translation of the commentary to this text byanother great Nirmal¿ scholar, Pandit Narain Singh L¿hore Mujang¿W¿le. The details of the text are explained following this preface butin essence this is an allegorical play focusing on the various virtuesand how an individual gravitates towards the oneness with God andstrays from sinful acts. Although this book only covers the secondchapter there is a lot of information to digest which will assist inunderstanding the struggles of the individual on a daily routine.I have written this book in an attempt for people to understand theknowledge from the great meta-physics discussed within the text. But,the real reason for writing this text is in order to try and revive theinterest in old Nirmal¿ authored texts into Ved¿nt which due to greatignorance are now ignored and no longer studied. Those who areignorant to the old texts do so due to lacking knowledge, a fear ofVed¿nt considering it to be anti-Sikh or discrimination due to seeingthat the author uses the title of 'Pandit'. I hope people give this book achance and realise the knowledge contained within is worth their timeand gain an understanding on the principals being taught by theancient masters.

This publication is an edited English commentary to the text known as the 'Pr¿ch¿n Panth Park¿sh'. This text is an early historical text into the tales of the Sikhs which was dictated to the British by Bh¿¿ Rattan Singh Bhang¿. The text predominantly deals with the various wars involving the Sikhs following the lives of the ten Gur¿'s. However, this third part to the text covers the details of the battles faced by Sr¿ Gur¿ Gobind Singh J¿ and the martyrdoms of the S¿hibz¿d¿s. This text is a translation of the commentary provided by Ak¿l¿ B¿b¿ Sant¿ Singh Nihang of the Buddh¿ Dal. The reason for creating this translation is twofold: The first is to provide an English translation linked to the warrior sect of Sikhism known as the Nihangs. The Nihangs have a colourful history and added so much to the Kh¿ls¿ order however, there is a lack of literature produced by the order. The second is to bring you a different perspective in English. There are currently two English translations of this text by Kulwant Singh and Gurtej Singh but both of them are basic whilst this is a translation of a commentary where further details are given by the Saint-Soldier. Providing information and comments you will not find anywhere else. Although I must say after reading through the initial text the commentary given by B¿b¿ Sant¿ Singh does not always follow the lines being quoted in the original text it is still a very interesting read. I can personally say that I have been impressed with the amount that I have learned through this commentary both about the schism of the Nihangs and Sikh history.

This book is the third part of a series of books that will focus on anEnglish translation of the text known as the Sr¿ N¿nak Park¿sh thatwas written by Bh¿¿ Santokh Singh J¿.The Sr¿ N¿nak Park¿sh is a hagiographic account portraying the lifeof Sr¿ Gur¿ N¿nak Dev J¿ through a poetical measure. This text wascreated by the great poet, Kav¿ Santokh Singh J¿ in order for Sikhs tofocus on the correct historical stories of the Gur¿ when there weremany accounts that had been tampered. The distortion of earlierhistorical accounts led to Kav¿ Santokh Singh J¿ creating this text sothat Sikhs would have knowledge about the founder of their faith.Through these stories' individuals can also gain knowledge on greatphilosophical and metaphysical teachings.I have written this book so that the Sikh community who are unableto understand the Punj¿b¿ vernacular are able to grasp the great life ofSr¿ Gur¿ N¿nak Dev J¿. I am surprised that so far, the many Sikhscholars have not attempted to bring such a work to the community. Itis with the grace of the intellectuals that I have been able tocommence such a project.

The Matra Sahib is a spiritual composition by Baba Sri Chand Ji regarding the Udasi order and contains the intrinsic teachings given to the followers of the order. This prayer is of great importance to the Udasi order and is recited daily by its followers and hopefully this small booklet will allow readers to understand the great teachings being given by Baba Sri Chand Ji who is known throughout India as a great saint. Further this booklet has been created with the purpose of trying to rebuild relations between the Sikhs and the Udasi community as 100 years ago the groups were not as distant as they are in the present.
