All renderings attempting to explain the Divine path are quite difficult to comprehend. The Japji Sahib of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, which is such a work, was rendered more than 500 years ago. Languages are not static but dynamic and Punjabi language is no exception to this. This fact has not helped in the matter but has rather made it more complex. The book 'JAPJI Sahib: A Complete Way of Life" attempts to facilitate the understanding of Japji Sahib, the daily Morning Prayer of Sikhs - incorporated at the beginning of 'Shri Guru Granth Sahib' the scripture of Sikhs - which is to be viewed as a single continuous and compact message of Guru Nanak, depicting unity of the directive principles of Sikhism. There is a school of thought, which explains Japji Sahib as expansion of the introductory 'Mool Mantra'. In this context, Japji Sahib is also stated to be the essence of whole Guru Granth Sahib. Conversely, the whole Guru Granth Sahib is said to be the expansion of Japji Sahib. The commentary, in black print, attempts to reflect this oneness of the principles of this most modern & universal religion of the world. Apart from the commentary, this book also contains the translation of Japji Sahib in English. All the available translations of Japji Sahib are narrative in nature and therefore, make it impossible to relate them to each word of the original rendering in Gurmukhi script. This effort has been made with the idea of setting right this imbalance. The translation, in coloured print, is given in as many words as in the original rendering. Owing to the limitation of the difference in the grammar of the two languages, some words have been added, in the translation, to clarify the complete meaning. These additional words are mentioned in brackets. The commentary and the translation have been interspersed in such a manner that they complement each other for better comprehension by the reader. For easier segregated reading, the translation, in blue print, has been aligned right. However, where there is a direct instruction to be followed by human beings, the translation, in bold print, has been coloured red and has been center-aligned. Another aspect that may be mentioned is that Sikhism has certain concepts, which if not unique, are quite special to it. Few such important concepts are 'Guru', 'Baani/Gurbaani', 'Hukam', 'Maaya', 'Man', 'Haumain', 'Naam/Shabad', 'Sat/Sach/Waheguru' and 'Simran'. Understanding these concepts in right perspective would be a pre-requisite for anyone interested in gaining an in-depth familiarization with this religion. These concepts have also been explained in the book. Some of the difficult words / terms (with super-scribed numbering) used in the book have been clarified in detail separately. It can be said that Japji Sahib helps a person in understanding the very purpose of human life. It also explains the specific acts to be performed in life and the manner in which they are to be performed for achieving the laid down objective of human life. There can't be a more true and simple narration of why and how of the human life than the one detailed in Japji Sahib. Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji's rendering of Japji Sahib is a service to mankind to which it is difficult to find another equal. Guru Nanak's message of Japji Sahib transcends all religions and seeks welfare of all beings. It is a powerful tool provided to the human being for fulfillment of his destiny. However, the option remains with the individual as to whether he wants to know, understand and pursue the desired path.

There are three primary purposes of a religious prayer. 1. To refresh your remembrance and awareness of God. 2. To bring your wandering mind into the present moment. 3. To understand the meaning of the prayer and imbibe its teachings into your life in order to further your spiritual progress. By God's grace, presented to you here is the translation of the JAPJI SAHIB(composed in Gurumukhi script by Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the First Guru and founder of the Sikh Religion) into English. At the end of the translation, I have also offered to you the Transliteration of JAPJI SAHIB, for those who may wish to recite as a prayer in the original Gurumukhi language. JAPJI SAHIB is a universal sacred hymn(prayer) about God and creation, composed by Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of the Sikh faith. The Japji Sahib consists of the Mool Mantra(Root Mantra) as the beginning followed by 38 hymns and a final Salok at the end of this composition. The Japji appears at the very beginning of the Guru Granth Sahib, the Holy Scriptures of the Sikhs. It is regarded as the most important Bani or 'set of verses' by the Sikhs and is recited every morning by all practicing this faith. The word 'Jap' means to 'recite' or 'to 'chant'. 'Ji' is a word that is used to show respect as is the word 'Sahib'. You are encouraged to read the translation several times, and the beauty of this glorious script will manifest in your mind. Harmony will come to your life as you begin to understand God and his attributes(as can be comprehended by a human), as revealed to us by God through Guru Nanak Dev Ji.

Sikhism is the youngest of the major world religions and the most modern and egalitarian in its practice. The scriptural authority for its followers is the 'Gurbani' in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Japji Sahib is the quintessential 'bani' and the key to the philosophy expounded by the Gurus. Guru Nanak's Japji Sahib: Way to God in Sikhism by Maneshwar S. Chahal is a unique presentation in that, before offering well-reasoned conclusions, it puts forth many a point of view and not just any single interpretation of the verses. It will help the lay reader to easily understand the Guru's message and offer the scholar ready material for deeper study of this vast subject. At the beginning of the book has been added the text of the verses of Japji in Roman script, as also in 'Gurmukhi' for those who would want to also experience the joy of chanting the 'bani

"Japji Sahib", the most celebrated composition of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, has not yet reached the common man, because the gurmukhi language used in the scred text is very different from the present day punjabi. A humble effort has been made to present the guru's message in as simple a manner as possible for the common man to understand the sikh way to divine.

Do you want to be more content, compassionate, and joyful? Have you heard amazing things about what Japji can do for you? By devoting a few minutes each morning to this simple, sacred prayer, wonderful things become possible in your life! I discovered this heart-opening and life-changing prayer about ten years ago while taking yoga classes at a Kundalini Yoga studio. That studio offered an early morning sadhana (spiritual practice) every morning. There was 15 minutes of vigorous physical exercise, 75 minutes of singing various Kundalini spiritual songs, and about 30 minutes of sitting still, eyes closed, listening to a recording of Japji. The handful of times I went to early morning sadhana I found that I had a song in my heart for the rest of the day and this unconditional love for everyone around me and everything that happened! And given that I am a stressed-out, driven, and somewhat grumpy person, the transformation itself was a near-miracle! But that studio was a two-hour drive from my house so, over time, I lost touch with the studio and with that amazing early morning sadhana. And then recently--when I really needed some of that joy and serenity back in my life--I began thinking about my long-ago early morning sadhana experiences, and I began wondering if maybe the actual mechanism of action was the fact that we listened to the recording of Japji. I started listening to different Japji recordings on YouTube every morning, trying to read along with the English transliterations provided. But the transliterations I found were unclear; they made reading Japji harder, not easier. I realized that if I wanted to keep going with my Japji experiment I would need to make a transliteration (transcription) that worked for me, and that allowed me to mimic the Japji prayer-reader/reciter in real-time. This took me a long time, since I could only spend early mornings and occasional weekends working on it. As the weeks and months passed, I realized that I was different, I was responding differently to things, thinking differently about things. I was more patient, more compassionate, more content and understanding, both with myself and with others. I was experiencing more peace and joy in my life, and the only thing I was doing differently in my life was I was studying Japji a few minutes each morning. I began to think that Japji had a power beyond my understanding, and that the transliteration/transcription I was working on could help other people and not just myself. I hope you receive many blessings from your study of Japji, and I hope you are able to achieve the changes in your heart, mind, and life that you've always wanted. Everything is due to God, all virtues and powers are His; thank you, God, for everything; thank you for making this possible.
