It spans more than 1400 pages and contains the actual words spoken by the founders of Sikhi, the 10 gurus. \n\nSikh poet, culture, critic and content creator Navpreet Singh has been fundamentally changed by these traditions of love, service and poetry, having become a prolific artist and speaker who shares poignant expressions of being in his work. \n\nAs a Sikh who keeps the practice of dastar, wearing a turban among other articles of faith, I felt like he would be able to offer you a point of view that's often overlooked in discussions around religious covering, and provide some poetic balm along the way.
