Daljit Singh Jawa was born in Patiala, India, where he received his formal education including B.S. Degree in Civil Engineering. After serving as an irrigation engineer for twelve years in India, he immigrated with his wife and two sons to the USA in the 1970s. After reinforcing his qualifications with M.S. and M.P.A. degrees, he served the State of Kansas as a Water Resources Planner until he retired in 2003. The author was raised in a Sikh spiritual environment. At an early age his mother would often take him to Gurdwaras, and would sing to him many melodious hymns from Sri Guru Granth Sahib throughout the day. His father, Sardar Hari Singh, director of Public Instruction Patiala state, spent his early years as a teacher in Khalsa College, in Amritsar, India in the company of such eminent Sikh scholars as Principal Jodh Singh, the first vice chancellor of Punjabi University, Poet laureate Bh.Vir Singh, and famous Guru Granth Sahib translator, Dr. Sahib Singh. In 2004, the author published "Order of the Day" which succinctly explains the daily "Hukamnamas" which are considered daily edicts for the Sikhs.
