Manage episode 414789190 series 2947997
In the Habish desh, Guru Nanak Dev Ji arrives to liberate the king. But the king was a tyrant - who aimed to kill individuals from a specific faith. Guru Ji manifested a chola with many languages written on this chola - confusing the people but teaching a deeper message to the sangat. The king tried to drown Guru Ji but was not successful.
Sri Nanak Prakash is a detailed historical account of the life of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. It was written by Mahakavi (great poet) Bhai Santokh Singh Ji in 1824 (AD), and represents one of the most comprehensive and beautifully written accounts of Guru Ji’s life. It is usually associated as a part of the greater text known as Sri Gurpartap Suraj Granth (aka Suraj Prakash) which details the historical accounts of all 10 Guru Sahibs in poetic form. It is an ocean of bliss, knowledge and experience. It is said that if one listen to the history of the lives of all 10 Gurus through these texts with complete devotion and faith, they can reach enlightenment.
