Guru Gobind Singh Sahib: Life, Vision & Wisdom is a landmark work that weaves together literary brilliance, historical insight, visual storytelling, and spiritual depth. At its heart is Sabad Hajare—ten luminous compositions that reveal the Guru’s timeless vision and boundless compassion.
Through contemporary translation and commentary, the book draws on the voices of the Guru’s court poets—Bhai Nand Lal Goya and Chandra Sain Sainapati—offering rare glimpses into the Guru’s divine presence and sovereign leadership. Goya’s emotive testimony and Sainapati’s sweeping historical narrative together bring the Tenth Sovereign to life—the inaugurator of the Khalsa Panth and the one who conferred Guruship upon the Guru Granth Sahib.
A vivid interplay of poetic text, calligraphy, and original art evokes the Guru’s aesthetic spirit—from ascetic earth tones to radiant golds—each element steeped in vismād (wonder) and love. More than a book, this is a contemplative journey into the 1Force (੧)—an invitation to see the One in all.
Ideal for readers seeking insight into Sikh spirituality, love-based leadership, and the enduring legacy of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib.
Step into the brilliance of the Tenth Sovereign.

Reading 'Heritage to Horizon' brought back memories I didn’t realize I had tucked away. A beautiful tribute to our second home.
This book is a walk down memory lane. From annual days to assemblies, it captures the true essence of being a Modernite.
A heartwarming mix of nostalgia and pride. It’s incredible to see how far Modern School has come; this book says it all.
