NANAK NIRANKARI KAVI

Guru Nanak was an enlightened mystic and the founder of Sikhism. Nanak made his sadhana his practice out of song. Nanaks words are the words of a poet a bard and a lover of beauty.Ek Onkar Satnam is the essence of Japuji Sahib - the message of Nanak that emerged as the religion of Sikhism. Indeed Ek Onkar Satnam is the heartbeat of Nanak and Japuji Sahib is the fragrance of the inner flowering. Ek Onkar Satnam Oshos series of preachings on nanak-vani is an utterly remarkable book. Its an extraordinary compilation of the twenty preachings given by Osho on Guru Nanak Dev jis Japuji. In the book its as if Nanak Dev has manifested again in the 21st century and has breathed new life into his own sutras through Oshos mouth.The Japuji Sahib contains the very first words Guru Nanak Dev uttered after self-realization. In Ek Onkar Satnam Osho interprets and elaborates on Nanaks songs of devotion while sharing timeless wisdom about the nature of singing devotion love religion and the different paths to flourishing consciousness.Ek Onkar Satnam helps us understand Guru Nanaks vision in our own way. While the focus of the book is complex Osho is able to articulate these complex ideas through simple stories. The ideas get heavy at times but he always brings in a fun and relevant story to drive the point home.
