Printer : Printwell, Amritsar Ph.: 0183-2587036 (iii) (iv) (v) PREFACE "Sukhmani" is a composition of Guru Arjan Dev, the fifth Guru of the Sikhs. This is written in simple Punjabi language with mixture of Hindi words which were in circulation at that time among spiritual seekers. This is called "sant bhasha" or the lingua franca of the saints of Northern India. It has words from Punjabi, Sindhi in the West to Bengali in the East. Since the saints moved freely from place to place, they had developed a language of their own called "sant bhasha". The time of composition is 1601-1602 AD at Sri Amritsar where Gurdwara Ram Sar is located. This composition is divided into 24 "Ashtpadis" or groups of eight stanzas. Each stanza is having 10 lines. Before each ashtpadi, there is a "sloka" which gives the gist of the next eight stanzas. In the first ashtpadi, after the first stanza, Guru Arjan Dev has given two lines with "Rahau" mark at their end. This word 'rahau' means "pause here and think" i.e.
