As with previous articles, the team has decided to translate Punjabi works of well known spiritually inclined scholars. The Panth has been blessed during the 21st century with Great Saintly souls who for the service of the panth wrote works. These include – Bhai Sahib Vir Singh Jee, Prof Puran Singh Jee, Subedhar Beghal Singh Jee, Bhai Sahib Bhai Raghbir Singh Bir, Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh Jee and many others whose immense seva can never be measured. If one sincerely reads what they have written with an open mind they then can appreciate the holy nature of that Gursikh.
In the case of Bhai Sahib Vir Singh Jee and Prof Puran Singh Jee, most of their writings have been translated into English to a high standard.
There are many Punjabi books which can help the seeker on the path of Sikhism and none so more important than those written by Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh Jee. Bhai Sahib if those who do not know was a popular a freedom fighter in the early 21<sup>st</sup> century who spent up to 16 years in jail and through that incarceration and his general lifestyle he led a Strict disciplined Gursikh life.
He also wrote over 50 books on Sikh Theology. These books show the vast knowledge of Bhai Sahibs understanding on Gurbani and also his dedication in following the Rehat of a Gursikh. He was in his time highly regarded in the whole Panth as a Saintly soul. Thus even those who did not agree with him fully acknowledged him as Truthful and upstanding for his belief in his understanding of the Sikh religion.
Some of his books have been translated into English in India and Canada. We are mere servants of those who have dedicated a huge amount of their time in doing this seva for the younger generation.
Bhai Sahib Books in Punjabi are hard to read as some words he uses are hard to translate and some are of a spiritual nature not in normal dictionaries. Our team of translators wanted to translate the parts from the book ‘Sachkand Darshan’ as near to the original work as possible.
‘Sachkand Darshan’ is a Book written by Bhai Sahib on his understanding of the 5 Divine Realms which are mentioned in Jaap Jee Sahib (Pauri 35-37). We have not translated the whole book, due to other work in process. It is a humble attempt by our Team to allow the younger generation to understand these Divine Realms through Bhai Sahib’s writing.
We ask the Sangat to forgive us for what may be numerous errors in the Translation, and if we are advised of corrections will change them immediately. We will post the first part before the end of the week.
