Takhat Damadama Sahib is
located at village Talwandi Sabo. Guru
Gobind Singh Ji stayed here for nearly one year. The place is very
significant as Guru Ji prepared second and final version of Guru Granth
Sahib. This version of the Granth is referred to as "Damdami Birh"
(dmdmI bIV).
First version composed by Guru Arjan Dev Ji was in possession of Dhir
Mal's (Guru Ji's cousin's) family members who refused to hand it over to
Guru Ji and challenged him to write it himself if he was the real Guru.
Guru Ji dictated the Gurbani through his spiritual power as Bhai Mani
Singh wrote it down. He added hymns of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji making a total
of 1430 pages and hymns composed in 31 raags. |
