Guru Gobind Singh famously said, “By living in love, one realizes God.” It is remarkable then that so very little is written about love and lovers in our glorious tradition. History – check. Travels of the Guru – check. Sociological evolution – check. Battles – check. Biography – check. Love – nada.

In this concise, new book we make the surprising connection between the greatest spiritual and erotic work of Indian love poetry with Gurbani. We explore the torpid traditional love stories – the Romeo and Juliets – of Punjabi folk literature. We compare the love lives of our Sikh forebears with those of Mughal royalty. And we trace the love between Guru and disciple, as between Arjan and Guru Ram Das, the Khalsa and Guru Gobind Singh, and the sublime love between bride and husband described in the four rounds of marriage, Lavan.

Is this required reading? Hardly. But it will expand your understanding and appreciation of a vital theme long treated as taboo which in the twenty-first century we need no longer fear to explore.
