Preface

The contribution of the Punjab, the land of five rivers, is quite significant in the domain of culture. The saints, rishis and yogis spent their career here mostly in the Vedic age. So far so the Bhagwat Gita which has deep bearing on Hindu philosophy, was recited in this region. In fact the emergence of numerous bhakti cults in different regions of our sub-continent made deep impact on Punjab.

Swami Ram Tirath was born on 22 October, 1873 in a small village, Muraliwala, district Gujranwala. His father, Gosain Hiranand, earned his living by performing religious ceremonies of his devotees. Young Tirath Ram received his early education in the Mission High School, Gujranwala and passed his Matriculation with thirty-eighth position in the Punjab University. In the B.A. examination he topped in the university. He passed his M.A. in Mathematics with distinction. He joined the Mission High School, Sialkot as a teacher. Soon after he joined the Mission College as a lecturer.

Side by side with his teaching work, Ram Tirath longed for a meeting with the Lord. He was a poet par excellence. He enjoyed in the midst of nature.
