In this episode, Shabd interviews Jvala Singh, about his great research
work and translation of Sikh historical texts. Jvala is the creator of
Manglacharan which, in his own words, is a project dedicated to shedding
light on the treasure trove of knowledge passed down by our ancestors,
which has not yet been translated into English. For the past ten years,
Manglacharan has provided translations of passages from important
theological and historical texts within the Sikh tradition. They discuss
the Suraj Prakash Granth, one of the most important historical Sikh texts,
the context for it and how Sikh scholarship has changed through the years.
Finally, they talk about Jvala’s new book - “54 Punjabi Proverbs” which
contains 54 Punjabi proverbs transliterated and translated into English,
and the story behind it.
