Parbodh Chandar Nātak by Pandit Gulāb Singh Nirmalā - Chapter One. Commentary by Pandit Narain Singh Lāhore Wāle.

This small book is an edited translation from a book called the 'Parbodh Chandar Nātak' written by Pandit Gulāb Singh Nirmalā. This book comprises of a translation of the commentary to this text by another great Nirmalā scholar Pandit Narain Singh Lāhore Mujangā Wāle. The details of the text are explained following this preface but in essence this is an allegorical play focusing on the various virtues and how an individual gravitates towards the oneness with God and strays from sinful acts. Although this book only covers the initial chapter there is a lot of information to digest which will assist in understanding the struggles of the individual on a daily routine. I have written this book in an attempt for people to understand the knowledge from the great meta-physics discussed within the text. But the real reason for writing this text is in order to try and revive the interest in old Nirmalā authored texts into Vedānt which due to great ignorance are now ignored and no longer studied. Those who are ignorant to the old texts do so due to lacking knowledge a fear of Vedānt considering it to be anti-Sikh or discrimination due to seeing that the author uses the title of 'Pandit'. I hope people give this book a chance and realise the knowledge contained within is worth their time and gain an understanding on the principals being taught by the ancient masters.
