[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 112880, member: 35"] Dr. Jasbir Singh Mann gives a similar opinion and also outlines the political turbulence that surrounded the compilation of the "Dasmi Patshah Ka Granth" (a title used prior to 1900/1902) in a special edition of the [U]World Sikh News[/U], April 16-22, 2008. Only 2 parts of the article are copied below. See the link at the end of this post for the full account. [I]Charles Wilkin wrote in his account: to translate at some future period the Granth he saw, in Hindoove with many Sanskrit words, in 1781 A.D., at Patna "which appeared later". This Bir categorized as MSS D5 Punjabi/Colebrook HT in British library, appeared on the scene in later part of 18th century. Henry Colebrooke, an attorney and administrator in Calcutta procured Dasmi Patshahi Granth in Gurumukhi (BL MSS Punjabi 5D) whose title page read as Nanak Panthi Kabhya in Devnagri with notation at the top in Devnagri: Dasmi Patshahi Ka Granth. Historical testimony also proves that Henry Colebrooke never came to Punjab to look for this Granth.[/I] article continues [I] .... The basic dilemma for Sikh Panth is "Which is the original authentic Bir of Dasam Granth compiled and authenticated by the tenth Guru or compiled by Bhai Mani Singh that matches all contents and arrangement as noted in the Bir presently in circulation as Dasam Granth? Where is the original Bir or Granth, does it actually exist?" Sodhak committee who edited and published the current Dasam Granth in 1900-1902 A.D., failed to respond to this basic question.[/I] [I]Historical, textual and academic analysis of various available Dasam Granth Birs or manuscripts, clearly leads to evidentiary and comprehensible truth that there was no Bir or Granth, or manuscript of Dasmi Patshahi Da Granth or Bachittar Natak Granth that matched the contents of current Dasam Granth as corrected in 1895-1896 and first published by Sodhak committee in 1897.[/I] [I] It has satisfactorily been refuted that Dasam Granth was nonexistent in Punjab prior to late 18th century. Dasm Granth can neither be traced nor attributed to Bhai Mani Singh Ji or Baba Dip Singh Ji, or to Guru Gobind Singh Ji. The presently published Dasam Granth, which has been available since 1897, is a heterogeneous Granth and appears to be created and compiled in the late 18th century under the guidance of Nirmala Atma Ram at Calcutta and promoted by Mahants: Nawal and Dayal Singh, and Granthi Sukha Singh at Patna by transliterating a Hindoove language manuscript "Nanak Panthi Kabya" to Gurmukhi Granth, "Dasmi Patshahi Ka Granth" presently located in British Library London cataloged as MSS D5 Punjabi. They inserted into it "Nitnem Banis", "first paragraph of Ardas" and "some other writings of Patshahi Dasmi and other similar Saloks" which were popular in Sikh usage (Gutkas or oral remembrance of Sikh families) into this Granth to lend credibility. Interestingly, Henry Colebrooke never came to Punjab to look for this Granth. Patna was an important city of Bengal state under British influence. Therefore, it appears that Henry Colebrooke assisted in creating, compiling and researching this Granth and titling it as "Dasmi Patshah Ka Granth" after procuring it from Nirmalas - Atma Ram at Calcutta and the Mahants of Patna where Charles Wilkin went earlier in 1781. Henry Colebrooke then deposited the Granth in British Library where Charles Wilkin was a librarian. [/I] This is just a short section.
