Sukhmani: Passage to Poise

by K.S. Duggal

More than a ritual, the Sukhmani is a poetic work of epic dimensions, marked for its ideative pace and rhytmic pliancy. Popularly known as psalm of peace, it reveals the secret of freedom from the bondage of birth and death. More often than not, the Sukhmani is recited by the devout along with the prescribed Sikh prayers (Nitnem). The original in the present text is transcreated by Kartar Singh Duggal, an eminent Punjabi litterateur and is being published to mark the tercentenary of the birth of the Khalsa.
