| Description |
English: Article: Sketches of the Sikhs. Illustration for The Illustrated London News, 4 April 1846. pages 4 and 5, Volume: 8 , Issue: 205. Article (part): THE SIKH PREACHER Guru Govind inculcated his tenets upon his followers by his preaching, his actions, and his works; among the latter is " Das'ama Padshah Ka Gurunth," or Book of the Tenth King, he being the tenth ruler from Nanac, the founder of the religion. This work, together with the "Adi-Gurunth" of Nanac-their only other sacred book-is held in great veneration by the Sikhs. Sir John Malcolm, while in the Punjaub in 1805, succeeded in procuring a copy of the " Adi-Gurunth " from a Chief, who sent it to him at night, after having obtained a promise that he would treat the sacred volume with great respect. A Mr. Colebrook, with persevering assiduity, was also able to procure not only the "Adi-Gurunth," but the " Das'ama PAdshAh Ka Gurunth "-the two most sacred books of the Sikhs. The Illustration represents one of the native Preachers. Read the ILN Sikh preacher (Granthi), ca.1845. URL: https://www.instagram.com/p/B8yN19-l4PP/ Drawing by G. T. Vigne |
