Begin and end each day in remembrance of the Divine with this modern English edition of Nitnem, the daily prayers of the Sikh tradition.

Written in clear, reverent language, this prayer book preserves the devotional meaning and poetic spirit of the banis while making them accessible to contemporary English readers. Each prayer is preceded by a concise introduction explaining its authorship, place in Sikh scripture, central message, and traditional time of recitation.

This edition includes:

- Japji Sahib
- Jaap Sahib
- Tav Prasad Savaiye
- Chaupai Sahib
- Anand Sahib
- Rehras Sahib
- Ardas
- Kirtan Sohila

The book is arranged for daily use, with every introduction presented on its own page and each prayer beginning on the following page. Clear headings and a simple, uncluttered design make it suitable for personal prayer, quiet reflection, family reading, and learning about the Sikh spiritual path.

Whether you have recited Nitnem for many years or are encountering these prayers for the first time, this edition offers a direct and contemplative way to engage with their teachings on truth, humility, courage, devotion, divine remembrance, and the welfare of all.
