Japji Sahib Volume

The Light of Guru Nanak for the World

A Commemorative Japji Sahib Volume with 19 Language Translations

I am honored to be a part of creating a wonderful gift and piece of art for the Sikh community. The Japji Sahib book features 19 different translations of one of Guru Nanak’s most beautiful writings along with my original watercolor illustrations. The book is part of an offering and will feature a custom jeweled cover bound in silver.

2019 marks the 550th Birthday of Guru Nanak Dev Ji and this momentous occasion will be commemorated around the world. As part of our celebration, 3HO and Sikh Dharma are joining together to take a Yatra with about 100 sangat members to India.

3HO and Sikh Dharma are collecting the translation of Japji Sahib from our communities around the globe, in 19 different languages. Each translation of Japji Sahib will be included in a beautiful book bound with a spectacular cover of silver filigree and precious gem stones and each of the 400 pages will be artistically designed and bordered.

On the occasion of Guru Nanak Dev ji’s birthday, this book titled “Japji Sahib – the Light of Guru Nanak for the World,” will be given to the Sikh Museum at the Golden Temple on behalf of the 3HO/Sikh Dharma communities around the world. There it will remain for all time in testimony to our love for the path of Nanak.
