| dc.description.abstract | The name of the Holy Book of the Sikhs is Adi (Primordial) Shri (Radiating) Guru (Master) Granth (Book) Sahib (Lord). Shortly before his death, the great reformer of the Sikh religion, Guru Govind Rai Singh (1675-1708) declared the extended version of the Granth as his successor to the guru-ship. The Granth is a poetic work that does not contain any prose. Only some authors of this Holy Book belonged to the Sikh community: Guru Nanak, the founder of the Sikh religion, his successors Angad, Amar Das, Ram Das, Arjan Dev, Hargobind, Hari Rai, Hari Krishan, Tegh Bahadur and Govind Rai Singh.2 Other authors, the so-called Bhagats (Saints), such as the Sufi Kabir, a weaver by profession, or the Krishna poet Sur Das belonged to other religions. And lastly, the other co-authors of this Holy Book were a few Bhatts (bards), for instance, Haribans or Ganga. | |
