These songs of Life and Liberation have been drawn from the oceanic Guru Granth Saheb, the Holy Book of the Sikhs, but essentially the Book for the entire humanity. The verses presented here have been translated into English and rendered into verse to enable the readers to imbibe the spiritual nourishment offered by them. The hymns chosen here concern themselves with the essential questions confronting us all - the relevance of life, suffering associated with it, causes of suffering, esistential angst, inevitability of death and pain and fear related to it and liberation from it all. This bok has 'Vani' (utterances) of mystics and saints, apparently of different persuasions but essentially of the same belief in One God, One Humanity, and the need to abide by his Laws and Will. Noticeably, it has verses of Guru Nanak, kabir and Sheikh Farid and other Gurus, Mystics and Saints of India
