Excerpt from Bhai Mahnga: Or the Search After Truth
In presenting to the public this rendering, in English language, of the story of Bhai Mahnga and Mai Suhagbai, on the auspicious occasion of the Coronation Darbar of His Imperial Majesty King George V, Emperor of India, no special apology seems necessary.
At a time when the prophecy of Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Guru of the Sikhs, is being literally fulfilled by the Coronation Darbar of a British Monarch at Delhi, where Aurangzeb had objected to the liberty of the Satguru in looking towards the South-west direction, a story of the selfless manner in which Sikh Gurus and their Apostles had worked, midst most adverse circumstances and public prejudices, should come just in the fitness of things.
Should it prove of consolation to even a single of the thousands of multitudes that are assembling at the Imperial Town, the labours of its original author and present translator shall be amply justified.
The present rendering is from the story of our hero as given in the publications of the Khalsa Tract Society of Amritsar, and the translator claims absolutely no merit in it.
