DESCRIPTION
An analysis of the Adi-granth of the Sikhs compiled in 1604 in no way suggests a lack of respect for the sacredness of the scripture. Human hands and memories were needed to give a form to the divine inspiration which started with Guru Nanak early in the 16th century. It was the genius of a human medium that put that inspiration in writings. It was not only an inspiration of a moment or of a few months but of several centuries as is testified to by the numerous hymns of Bhagats prior or contemporary to Guru Nanak.
Nearly 400 years after the comilation, a formatted reprint and a complete index should enable both devotees and scholars to have easier access to the enormous and inspiring scripture.
