Adi-Granth, holy scripture of the Sikhs is composed in various ragas and arranged according to their order. Towards the end there is special mention of hierarchy of ragas, the ‘ragamala’s. I also contains ‘Barah-maha’ – the constant longing of the soul for the Eternal God expressed over a period of twelve months. The present volume is a novel attempt to depict these religious compositions through the medium of colour. What could be hitherto only heard as a string of words has been infused with a strong lively vibration. Each canvas is complete and imposing in itself. The whole collection, with artist-author’s concise facts becomes a synergy of the arts, a devout prayer, and a holy vision. For lovers of art and literature the book provides a unique opportunity to discover human mind, its longings, aspirations, achievements, and a courageous respect for nature.
