Shri Gru Granth Sahib is a book written in repetitive and melidic rhythm to open our soul for the God and His Grace. It's aim is insight, not the logic or intellect. Nor there is srory. I am not a Sikh but I had been reading it every morning a few pages as an aid and inspiration for my meditation practice.

They translation seems to be very good, however I am a novice. I would like to have the original text in the original language alongside or above/below the English.

Even though I have given this book 5 stars, I feel this book should not be rated in such a manner. This book is in a series of books which gives English Translations of the Shri Guru Granth Sahib, and these Sikh holy writings should not be subjectted to such forms of appraisals. Its like asking for a star based rating for the Bible, Koran, etc. This book gives a direct line by line translation, but does not elaborate any further. I feel this book would have been better if it also provided the writings in Gurmukhi script (as are the writings in the Shri Guru Grath Sahib) and then deciphered into English. There is so much to be learned from each single line of writing in the Shri Guru Granth Sahib that mere direct translations does not do it justice. The crux of the message to be learned is in the deeper analysis of the original writings, which this book does not provide. The translations offered in this book are the same as can be seen on some popular Sikh websites, such as [...] These however do provide the writings in Gurmukhi aswell. For those who do wish to learn the deeper meanings of the Sikh holy writings, I would whole heartedly recommend the following 2 books written by Maneshwar S Chahal - Japji Sahib & Asa Di War.

English translate only. My kids don't know Punjabi but they can connect with Waheguru ji with those English translated books.
