Every age longs for peace, and few voices have sung its path more clearly than Guru Arjan. The Sukhmani Sahib, or Song of Peace, is one of the world's great scriptures — twenty-four meditative chapters, each unfolding into eight verses, on the divine Name, the company of the holy, humility, patience, and the quiet work of turning the restless heart toward the One. This fresh rendering keeps the music and meaning of the original while speaking in natural, present-day English, so a first-time reader can listen as easily as a lifelong student. Explanatory chapter notes and a glossary make the sacred context approachable. Above all, these are poems meant to be read slowly and let go of the ego's grip. As the text itself promises, those who dwell on this song with love find peace flowering within them. Part of The World Scriptures Library.
