The Compilation of the Living Word
The Guru spent years collecting the hymns of the previous Gurus along with verses from Hindu Bhagats and Muslim Sufis. He sat in a secluded grove to compile the Adi Granth, ensuring that the poor, the outcasts, and the seekers of all faiths found their voice in the Sikh scripture.
