That's a lovely compliment Priya, thanks! And if you loook for my first - Earning the Laundry Stripes - you'd be best off ordering it online.

The Granth Sahib has verses of several poets and seers, Hindus and Muslims alike - the aim of the compilation being to seek the best out there.<br /><br />Cheers!Manreet Sodhi Someshwarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01566345149225306647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2918251469825166150.post-27565825474366706832011-04-25T19:31:35.452+08:002011-04-25T19:31:35.452+08:00"In the least, faith is a complicated thing&q..."In the least, faith is a complicated thing" -- how very true.

I have always been fascinated by Sikhism, and one day, I was quite surprised to find that many of Kabir's verses have been incorporated in Shri Guru Granth Sahib. Kabirdas ji is may favorite poet from the classical period.<br /><br />Hope you had a great Baisakhi!Desi Babuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07955168775820391505noreply@blogger.com
