Why was Sri Nanak Prakash was written?
Kavi Santokh Singh JI explains the reason behind writing Sri Nanak Prakash Granth, what basis they wrote this Granth on, and how some people from Hindals (disciples of Guru Amar Das Ji) and Bhagat Kabir Ji’s lineage wrote comparisons of their elders with Guru Nanak Dev Ji in a bad way to get praise for their lineage.
Sri Nanak Prakash is a detailed historical account of the life of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. It was written by Mahakavi (great poet) Bhai Santokh Singh Ji in 1824 (AD), and represents one of the most comprehensive and beautifully written accounts of Guru Ji’s life. It is usually associated as a part of the greater text known as Sri Gurpartap Suraj Granth (aka Suraj Prakash) which details the historical accounts of all 10 Guru Sahibs in poetic form. It is an ocean of bliss, knowledge and experience. It is said that if one listen to the history of the lives of all 10 Gurus through these texts with complete devotion and faith, they can reach enlightenment.
