This book, Ardas of the Sikhs, is an inclusive, yet discreet work on the subject. While acknowledging the universality of prayer and its efficacy, the author attends to this multisensate phenomenon in all its dimensions— historical, hermeneutical, psychological, philosophical, etc. He does this with all deference to the various other extant spiritual disciplines.

Ardas for the Sikhs is the way of life ordained by the Gurus. It is but another way of simran or Practising the Presence of God. It pithily con- denses the cosmic glory, spiritual experiences and ethical values enshrined in the perennialholy Word of the Adi Granth.

Profoundly expounding every phrase of the Ardas, the book has been considered a precious addition to the existing spiritual literature of the world. Its version in the Punjabi language had been described ‘an all- time classic’ by the Chief Editor of Encyclopaedia of Sikhism.
Jaswant Singh Neki (1925-2015) was a Professor of Eminence in Religious Studies at the Punjabi University, Patiala. He was decorated with‘Order of the Khalsa’and‘Shan-e-Khalsa’awards.

A psychiatrist of international standing, he was the Director of the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, and Consultant to the World Health Organization and UNDP.

An outstanding metaphysical poet in the Punjabi language, he received the national Sahitya Akademi Award in 1980.
