About This Book

When the family priest arrives to place the sacred janeu thread around young Nanak's neck — a rite that only boys of certain castes could receive — Nanak refuses. He asks what kind of thread can hold goodness inside the heart, what kind of thread belongs equally to all. His questions change everything. A story about equality, inner truth, and the courage to ask why.
