The Guru Granth Sahib Project is pleased to launch the annotation of Twenty-four saloks (couplets) by Guru Arjan Sahib. The Guru has revealed this Bani without any prescribed rag (musical mode).Gatha refers to a song or verse, rooted in the word gai, to speak, sing, or recite. It can also refer to a profound discourse with the self beyond simple praise or devotion. Within its short saloks, this Bani explores how to overcome the five thieves-vices through praise and companionship.
