The first-ever detailed exegesis and exposition in English of the Akaal Ustat by Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Academy, Malaysia. Here are some details from Preface - There are a number of quotes throughout this book cited from the early sources including the Bhai Gurdas Vaaran & Kabitt, Rehatnamas, Bhai Nand Lal's ghazals and as well with interspercing of quotes from Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji, Sri Dasam Granth Sahib Ji and Sri Sarabloh Granth Sahib Ji. Along with this, we have also included Sufi theology, various Greek, Egyptian and Chinese scholars' quotes. The Punjabi meanings has been largely utilized from Dasam Guru Granth Sahib Steek by Pandit Narain Singh Giani with some omissions and additions. The primary text of Akaal Ustat has been taken from the personal prayer book (Gutka) of Baba Deep Singh Ji Shaheed, the first Jathedar of Damdami Taksal & Damdama Sahib is currently kept at Takht Sri Damdama Sahib, Sabo Ki Talwandi. The text in this Gutka and the one of Baba Jit Singh Ji's Gutka, the second Jathedar of Damdama Sahib is almost similar. Further, the calligraphy of this manuscript with Baba Ji's written Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji present at Takht Sahib is similar, making it a reliable source. In order to make it more relevant to this day and science, there has been an amalgamation of physics, metaphysics, cosmology and astronomy to create a holistic approach in understanding some core principles and makes the readers contemplate on the intellectual brilliance of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. A plethora of history has been supplied with relevance to the Akaal Ustat in order to make this a concise reference book.

The unifying theme in the life of Guru Gobind Singh was confrontation with the Mughals, which culminated in a struggle for political power. This fact is brought into sharp focus when we consider the Guru’s life and legacy simultaneously in the contexts of the Mughal Empire, its feudatory states in the hills, and the Sikh movement. The creation of the Khalsa in 1699 as a political community with the aspiration to rule made conciliation or compromise with the Mughal state almost impossible. Their long struggle ended eventually in the declaration of Khalsa Raj in 1765. Using contemporary and near contemporary sources in Gurmukhi, Persian, and English, J.S. Grewal presents a comprehensive study of this era of Sikh history. The volume elaborates on the life and legacy of Guru Gobind Singh and explores the ideological background of the institution of the Khalsa and its larger political context. Grewal, however, emphasizes that the legacy of the Khalsa was also social and cultural. This authoritative volume on the tenth Guru is a significant addition to the field of Sikh studies.
