[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 142760, member: 35"] The topic of original manuscripts of Guru Nanak Dev ji itself leads to serious controversy. In the first attachment you can read the entire article. The Har Sahai pothi or alleged original collection of Guru Nanak's bani, and the Minas tradition, will come up more than once in my reply. [B]MULMANTAR: VICTIM OF MINA TRADITION [/B] Read more, as I have attached the pdf source, as an attachment, an article by Dr. Gurumel Singh Sadhu, who I believe passed about 2 years ago. He is challenging the arguments of Dr. Gurinder Singh Mann, heavily criticized within the ranks of Sikh scholars. Professor Gurinder Singh Mann had made the claim that [COLOR="Blue"] [/COLOR] and Professor Gurumel Singh Sadhu explained [COLOR="Blue"][COLOR="Blue"][/COLOR] [/COLOR] More can be said on that point. Dr. Gurumel Singh's background is such that he adhered strongly to the Kartarpur Bir [I]as the only authentic manuscript [/I](compiled by Guru Arjan Dev) and was thus in agreement with Professor Sant Singh, and at loggerheads with members of the McLeod school who have put forward various arguments in support of alternative manuscripts. At next link we have Gurinder Singh Mann conducting his analysis. In the pages that should load immediately, you will see that he found a need to talk about the position taken by Professor Sahib Singh. A cursory glance also shows some errors of fact on the part of Dr. Mann.

One school of thought is that Guru Arjan Dev "made editorial changes." Professor hotly disputed this. If there was any tampering it was by the Mina sect, disloyal the Guru Arjan Dev. See the attachment. You see you are already walking into a minefield - perhaps you don't realize it. Many view this as part of an ongoing attack on the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. I will keep checking for you. In the meantime it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of how difficult a topic this is. Do read also the third attachment, [B]Planned Attack on Adi Granth. [/B] The role of the Minas is critical to understanding why the question of original manuscripts would lie at the center of this controversy. [/QUOTE]
