Coming soon, ReligionAll One Must Know About The Sikh Faith by Colonel Daljeet Singh Cheema (Hardcover)
Sikhism is the youngest of the major religions of the world and is also the most modern in its practice. Founded by Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the faith is about truthfulness, earning livelihood through honest means, sharing with those whose needs are more than ours and worshipping One God; and its aim is to promote equality, love, peace, and compassion. Yet, it has not been understood and interpreted in its correct perspective though the world of today needs this message more than ever before. The book is for anyone who seeks truth and wants to know the Sikh Faith, particularly for the youth who seems to be lost while searching for it.

- Page : 94

Nothing else attract him, nothing else holds his attention, all else is meaningless. Bhakti Yoga appeals particularly to those of an emotional nature. The Bhakti Yogi is motivated chiefly by the power of love and sees God as the embodiment of Love. Through prayer, worship and ritual he surrenders himself to God, channelling and transmuting his emotions into unconditional love or devotion. Chanting or singingthe praises of God form a substantial part of Bhakti Yoga

- ISBN : 9789394885820
- Dimensions : 22.5 x 14.5 x 1 cm
Thanks to Mr. S. M. Mitra, the well-known Hindu psychologist and politician, who has done so much to draw more closely together the land of his birth and that of his adoption, I am able to bring within reach of English children a number of typical Hindu Tales, translated by him from the Sanskrit, some of them culled from the ancient classics of India, others from widely separated sources. The latter have hitherto been quite inaccessible to western students, as they are not yet embodied in literature, but have been transmitted orally from generation to generation for many centuries.
