This publication is an edited English commentary to the text known as the ÔCharitropkhy_nÕ. This has become a controversial text which is the largest portion of the Sr_ Dasam Granth, authored by Sr_ Gur_ Gobind Singh J_.
The context of this text is a series of tales narrated by a minister to a King. This is recounted in the second charitar and all others continue on from there in a constant flow. The flow is of constant stories which have their individual teachings. The majority are not to place trust in others both male and female. There are stories of deceptions, folk stories, stories of deities, etc. Sr_ Gur_ Gobind Singh J_ writes these stories in order to teach the masses about the flaws that the vices cause within people. Well that is what the public think these charitars entail however, there are many stories of bravery within them. For example, the stories of Dropat_ and Keka_ are two that show how brave a woman can be and the saviour that women can be towards their partners.
