From the preface: "Guru Granth Ratnavali is an attempt to introduce the holy Guru Granth to the world at large. The book presents in outline and succinct form the thought-content of the Granth, a gift of the Sikhs and the Punjab to India and the world. The Granth enshrines in its pages and highlights the principles of a profound spiritualism and a philosophy of religion; it offers to mankind a solid basis for a common spiritual code, so valuable for the edification of the human race. The present volume aims at providing an introduction to the thought of the holy Granth and the editorial scheme employed therein."
