Dr. Gopal Singh has translated Guru-Granth Sahib in English. Dr. Gopal Singh’s attempt is the first of its kind and is distinguished both by deep scholarship and a regard for truth. With his background of Sikh religion and his own comparative study of other Indian religions systems, he has caught the true sprit of Gurubani.
Many people in India and abroad are anxious to learn more and more about the Sikh religion and history of the Sikhs. Non-Indians, of course, find it difficult to have a current and true picture of what is contained inn the Guru-Granth through such translations as are made by Dr. Trumpp and Mr. Macauliffe. Many Indian people also like to know more about the Granth Sahib and although there are editions of the Granth published in Devanagari script, yet for the people of the south, who do not know, by and large help. |
